Instruments: Piano Trombone Euphonium Tuba Keyboard
My teaching style is meant to cater to each students specific needs but above all else is having an understanding of what a brass musician should sound like. Many times young students only hear computerized recordings or recordings from their method books and they have not concept of what the instrument should truly sound like. The use of technology is something that I am a big fan of and resources such as YouTube is a great place to hear these recordings. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba
My teaching experience began in my first year of college teaching beginning piano. I have since grown my studio from there to teaching trombone. I encourage students to be passionate about what they play while also balancing what we learn through various method books. I found I improved the most when I was playing music I enjoy rather than playing the music that was given to me by my piano teacher. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Clarinet
I firmly believe that every student is different and therefore has their own learning style. it is very important for me to understand what their learning style is so that I can cater to that in our lessons. Through this methodology, I have found that my students have more productive lessons and grow faster as vocalists and piano players. Given that I believe every student is different, I will set goals for them based on how quickly they're able to make progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Music Keyboard
Hi! My name is Willa, and I've been teaching music for twelve years! I began learning piano at age four, and it became a deeper and deeper passion as the years passed. I dedicated myself to my craft and went on to become a Perry & Walters Music Foundation Scholar, attending Harding University and graduating Cum Laude with my BA in Music (emphasis in piano). I taught for a time in Searcy, (privately, and with the Searcy Community School of Music) and started a weekly music therapy program at a school for kids with mental and physical disabilities (The Sunshine School).

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
I am an experienced musician who has a passion for music and a passion for teaching. I have performed playing the violin, piano, guitar, viola, bass guitar, and the drums. Even though I play many instruments, I am only interested in teaching piano, violin, and guitar. Outside of being a music teacher, I am currently earning my Master's Degree in Mathematics. I was formerly a high school math teacher, but I want to earn my Master's degree in math so that I could teach math at the college level. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for instrumental lessons with your child typically follows a structured routine to help them develop their skills effectively. Here's a general outline of what a practice session looks like:
1. Warm-up: We usually start with a warm-up exercise to get your child's fingers and muscles ready for playing. This can include finger exercises, scales, or simple melodies to loosen up and improve finger dexterity.
2. Review: We'll spend some time reviewing the material from the previous lesson. This helps reinforce what they've learned and ensures they're building on a solid foundation.
3. New Material: Next, we'll introduce new concepts or techniques. This could involve learning a new piece of music, practicing specific technical exercises, or focusing on particular aspects of playing, such as dynamics, articulation, or timing.
4. Repetition and Technique: Repetition is key to improvement, so we'll work on sections of the music that need extra attention. We'll also focus on specific techniques and skills related to the instrument, like bowing techniques for string instruments or breath control for wind instruments.
5. Interpretation and Musicality: We'll explore the musicality of the piece, discussing elements like phrasing, dynamics, and expression. This helps your child bring their own personality and emotion to the music they're playing.
6. Sight-reading and Ear Training: To develop a well-rounded musician, we'll often include sight-reading exercises and ear training to improve their ability to read and interpret music on their own.
7. Performance Practice: Preparing for performances is an essential part of music education. We'll dedicate some time to practice performing the piece with confidence and precision.
8. Q&A and Feedback: Throughout the session, your child is encouraged to ask questions and seek clarification on any challenges they're facing. I'll provide constructive feedback to help them improve.
9. Goal Setting: We'll discuss short-term and long-term goals for your child's musical development. Setting achievable milestones can motivate them to practice consistently.
10. Cool Down: We'll finish the practice session with some relaxation exercises and a recap of what they've accomplished. This helps reinforce the positive aspects of their practice and sets a positive tone for their next session.
It's important to note that the duration and intensity of practice sessions may vary depending on your child's age, skill level, and individual goals. Regular, focused practice is essential for progress, and I'll work with your child to tailor their practice routine to their specific needs and abilities.
