Instruments: Piano
Helping students to stimulating their interests of learning music is one of the most important thing! Therefore, I will give them enough space to find and develop their interest. I will help them to set up many realistic goals in each lesson, and bring them more passion for learning and practicing. I will be patient to all my students, even towards their mistake. Making mistake is not a bad thing during studying, the way to correct and keep learning is much more valuable. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I'm following traditions of a famous Russian school. I have very strong technical training and musical abilities. “To understand, and to cause to be understood" – these words sum up the end and aim of my style.” Until we understand the music, we’ll not succeed at playing it so that others also understand it. With time, we learn more and better ways to communicate musical ideas. I expand our understanding of what is possible, and I find more of the subtle subtexts and interplay within the music. Read More

I am someone who is passionate about music and loves working with students and seeing that passion grow in them as well. I have been playing the piano for 26 years and have learned many different styles, from classical to jazz to improv playing in different bands across the U.S. I graduated in 2005 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music with a Piano Performance minor. Having the opportunity to travel around the nation to perform has been an incredible experience as a musician. Read More

Hi, my name is Marianne! I graduated from Garden City Community College in 2011 with an Associate of Arts degree in Piano. From there I transferred to Southwestern Adventist University where I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Sciences and minored in Vocal Music. I love to share my passion for music with others, and I hope to convey that to my students as well. My goal is to ignite that passion in my students so that not only they will want to share with others, but that they will find joy in it. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Fiddle
My teaching experience dates back to my high school days in Hong Kong, as I began teaching violin private lessons part time 14 years ago, and had been consistently teaching students in my home studio and a local music center for 8 years before I moved to the United States in 2012. In 2012-2014, I was hired as a violinist of the Kishwaukee Symphony Orchestra. In 2016-2017, I taught string private lessons to 7th and 8th grade students at Smith-Hale Middle School and I helped coach the school's string and wind ensembles. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo
My teaching experience goes back to when I was a sophomore in high school and I started to teach piano lessons after school to kids that ranged from the age of 5-13. In these lessons we would cover fundamentals, warm-ups, theory, classic literature, etudes, and any fun songs that they wanted! I always encouraged my students to practice and if they wanted to learn a video game song or pop chart we would focus on that. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Clarinet
Hi Everyone! My name is Benjamin! I'm a high-energy guy that loves to teach music. My students come from all walks of life and from various ages. In 2012, I graduated from Evangel University with a Bachelor of Arts in Music, focusing on composition. Getting to see people advance in music has been one of my true joys as a teacher. It has also been my joy to perform with some great musicians all over Missouri. Read More
Instruments: Flute
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Always, and I mean always, begin with long tones. Nothing is more important than working on your embouchure muscles. You can be the best flute player in the world, but if you have bad tone, you will always be considered less than mediocre. The great part about long tones and tonal exercises is that there's so many out there to try out and do! You never have to stick to just one exercise! When you have found at least one tonal exercise you feel comfortable with, you can add on more difficult tonal warm ups to your practice routine.
When will I start to see results?
The tricky thing with results is that everybody sees results differently. For me, a student being able to learn how to play a G in tune is results. You're learning and training your ear to recognize the correct pitch and balance on your instrument. Some people would say playing a G in tune isn't progress or any type of result at all. I say, if you are walking away with new knowledge on your instrument, you're already gaining results. The best part of all of this, you never stop improving therefor you can always keep reaching for better results.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I've had the opportunity to work with many teachers and professors that were, and are, involved with music. The one that inspired me most was my high school band director. He told me to not let anybody or anything stop me from wanting to teach music. I had a lot of people in my life try and convince me to not study music, but I never let those voices stop me thanks to my teachers words. More than anyone, I believe my biggest inspiration is myself. I've worked hard to obtain scholarships to study my passion and seek help when I needed it. No one could have given me the success I have if it wasn't for me. You can be your biggest inspiration, or your biggest enemy.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
My biggest rule in life is, "Am I enjoying this?" If the answer is no, then it's time to sit down and consider whether or not this is a good idea. When it comes to music, I believe anybody is ready to begin lessons as long as they are the one insisting on wanting to do it. If you are a parent forcing your child to do lessons, everybody in the process will suffer. You, the student, and the teacher. If the student is nervous and shy to begin, I promise you, lessons become more than just lessons, they become a form of therapy and a source to escape the real world for a while. As long as the student is wanting lessons, then you're definitely ready!
