It's a time period of building good piano practice habit. Therefore, I will apply different methods to let them be able to enjoy practicing. For intermediate students, they will be learning pieces from 4 periods: baroque, classical, romantic and modern. They will also be learning music from all kinds of aspects: theory, improvisation, sight-reading, etc. Read More

Leonardo D

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet French Horn Piccolo

My vocal methods are rooted in bel canto style with a strong Melocchi technique using standard repertoire from art songs to stage to develop any voice in preparation for various styles of song. My goal is to help my students go from a singer to a vocalist so that they understand their instrument to be able to create any music as needed. As a piano method I draw from the FABER & FABER method books in addition to online repertoire resources from the standard piano literature varying in styles and difficulties from classical to the four chord structures used in many of today's popular songs and arrangements.

Teacher In Spotlight

Mersadie W

Instruments: Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Beginner players will use the Premier Performance book by Ed Sueta. This book is used by most band programs and it will help each student with the basic music fundamentals to help them succeed in the process. Intermediate Players will use the Smith-Yoder-Bachman Band Method book. This book allows intermediate players to explore more on their horns and to play around with alternate fingering patterns. Advance Players will play from the Lazarus method book. This book will prepare for recitals and college level experiences.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had several students make the all west honors band. My students are very aware on how important it is to practice once they leave and go home. They all succeed in the process through following the instructions to improve over time. A good performance and lessons will always lead to success later on in life. Everything pays off in the long-run because teachers work hard to make sure their students are learning everything that is needed to move on to the next level. Some of my students I work with privately are section leaders of their band programs.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the clarinet is when its time to cross the bridge. This is the time that the student is ready to play in a different octave on their instrument and have to learn how to cross from one octave to the next octave. In order to accomplish this goal, the student have to work hard to make it happen and with the help of the teacher the student will cross the bridge. This technique is a struggle, but with great practice, motivation, and determination it will prosper overtime.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Learning how to play the clarinet was one of the most amazing accomplishments in my life. At times it became very hard and I wanted to give up, but as I continue to face my obstacles I begin to overcome them through my music. I am also proud of being a teacher and being able to teach students how to do the exact same thing I did when I was their age. Traveling from different cities and states being able to do what I love is another accomplishment that makes me smile. Remember things that you have a passion for will always be an accomplishment that will make a person proud.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
