Vance B

Instruments: Piano

Each of my days begins and ends with music, and I'm always excited to share my passion with anyone. While attending University of Illinois, I was a part of the Illini Mentoring Program for 2 years, where I worked alongside at-risk youth in an after-school volunteer organization to foster one-on-one relationships, promote learning, and have fun with the mentees. I truly loves performing music live for others, and while at U of I was part of various groups through the college such as the UI Latin Jazz Band (led by Tito Carrillo) and the Black Chorus (led by Dr. Read More

Xiaoyi S

Instruments: Piano

I am a passionate piano instructor who loves sharing all my love, and study experience to my students and working with them. In 2018 summer, I graduated from Ithaca College with a Master of Arts degree in Piano Performance. I have many experiences of playing recitals and concerts to the public, which has been one of the most valuable lesson in my pianist's life. And I also played the piano part in the orchestra for the concert band in Ithaca College from 2016 to 2017, which gave me more confidence in piano collaborative. Read More

Erin S

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Oboe English Horn

For piano students, I like to use the Alfred method books with supplemented music that peeks their interest. I like these books because they have several series depending on the age of the student and their interests such as music theory and broadway hits.-For woodwind students, I like to work for a few weeks out of their band books so I can assess their strengths and weaknesses. From there I will assign the appropriate method book; typically from the Rubank series. Read More

Kelly U

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

My voice and piano studio was established in the summer of 2018 with the desire to provide quality piano and musical theatre coaching/training to the Kansas City area. Growing up, musical theatre and piano lessons were an essential outlet for me as I explored the world around me and within me. I teach because of my desire to share the life-changing experiences the performing arts has to offer with the next generation of performers. Read More

Alla A

Instruments: Piano Violin

I was born and raised in St. Petersburg, Russia. I picked out melodies on the piano when I was two and a half years old, and was soon taking piano lessons. When I was enrolled in music school at six years old, all of the piano openings were taken and only violin openings remained, so that became my instrument. I spent twenty years in music schools, including the Rimsky-Korsakov Music College and the St. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Writing down your schedule out (proven for me at least). Practicing your weakest area of playing first. I have also noticed that the most effective way to get the most out of your practice time is to completely focus on the task at hand. That means no social media, television, or other distractions that happens to all musicians. On top of having no distractions, another way of practicing effectively is to practice consistently and do it everyday. I believe the more daily a musician practices, the better results he/she gets. By that I mean it is better to practice everyday for an hour, rather than practicing 3-4 hours a day every other day or two. To summarize, the best advice I have for effective practice is: writing out your practice schedule, focusing first on your weakest areas, cutting out all forms of distractions, and of course, practicing everyday for a hour or less, rather than cramming three days out of the week.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the child is wanting to improve his or her skills, can be focused for 10 minutes at a time, I believe the student is ready to start lessons. Your child must want and have the desire to be taking lessons. In my opinion, the desire for music lessons must come from the student, not the parents. I have seen too much from my other friends and while I was tutoring, that many children are forced into taking after school tutoring/music lessons. A child must be completely obsessed with music and must be willing to pay attention and focus at practicing and honing their skills to improve everyday. If a child shows these traits, then I believe they will be ready to start lessons.

When will I start to see results?
It depends on the ability and effort on the student. I will provide the fundamental foundation (scales, sight reading, techniques, music library, sight syncopated rhythms) to a student so they can improve at their skills. I will do my best to explain to the student why it is important to practice these difficult skills/passages/rhythms. I will do my best to ensure I give the necessary tools to all of my students so they can improve as musicians. IF the student sits down, and practices everything I hand at them, parents can expect to see results in about a week or so. The more determined a student is, the faster he/she will improve.

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.
