Lucas K

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

My favorite part about teaching is watching my students progress. Nothing is better than seeing the progress one makes after a given time. Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at their own pace. Setting goals for themselves can work well but there is no need to rush anything. Learning takes time and especially learning an instrument. Words of affirmation when acknowledging a students accomplishment(s) helps students desire to continue to progress and make them eager to keep on learning. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Euphonium Mallet Percussion

For brass, woodwind, and percussion students who are in a school band or orchestra, I would use the school's chosen method book in additional to supplemental materials that I would provide, based on the student's interests and needs. For those who are not in band and are just starting, my preferred method for brass and woodwind players is Tradition of Excellence. For intermediate players, I like to use material from the Rubank Intermediate book in addition to more fun material on an individual basis. Read More

James R

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba

My philosophy in teaching is that a good understanding of the foundation of music and the instrument will lead to self sufficiency in learning. I aim to teach my students not just to be dependant on myself as the instructor, but to be able to problem solve and learn on their own if they run into a question and an instructor is unavailable. I regularly practice sight reading with my students and keep them critically thinking about their music and what makes it up. Read More

I offer virtual zoom lessons and also virtual studio session coaching. I make my lesson plans customizable to the client and what they are specifically looking to learn or achieve. Some students are beginners looking to learn correct placement & expand their range while others are seasoned recording artists working on perfecting new music to record & perform. Read More

Brian M

Instruments: Piano

Here are a couple of reviews from students: “Ian’s experience with Sebastian has been nothing short of wondrous. Sebastian has the unique ability to find a musical connection with a broad range of students, From prodigies to students like my son who simply want to know the joy of playing music. Sebastian is able to meet the students where he or she is at in their musical journey and coax that student to move forward at their own pace. Read More

Anastasiya N

Instruments: Piano Clarinet

My main method is to be in the middle between having a discipline, encouraging to practice regularly, stay focused but at the same time to remain curious about the process and not let the students develop the habit where they need to practice because they need to. With some older students I try to be somewhat specific and explain what are the things we are working on, why we are working on this, and how to archive it. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Jeehoon K

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
When we sing, there are many muscles are working together. However, the problem is that the muscles are not shown by our eyes because those are in our bodies. Furthermore, the muscles are totally different depending on people. So, knowing their own instrument (body and voice) is the hardest thing. Second, the voice is in our body. So, the voice can be changed according to their condition. To maintain steady voice, I think singers need to practice a lots. I think repeated practice is only way to remember their voice perfectly.

Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
When I had a private lesson at Texas, my student awarded second place for a vocal competition. When I started to teach him he has a bad habit for signing while he has a great voice. So, I tried to fix his bad habit. His bad habit was stuffy sound which causes artificial voice. For this reason, he tended to push his voice a lot. To fix this problem, I made an effort to let him know his natural voice. Of course, he felt it was really weird and stranger. After fixing this bad habit, he was able to improve his voice quickly. When he found his voice and sing with natural voice he won the competition.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Ironically, my goal was being a math teacher because I was really good at math and science. However, my goal was changed when I was high school student. My parents are strong christians. So, I naturally went to church with my parents. In the church, I liked to play a guitar and a drum. I was able to sing in church choir many times. Through the experience, I recognized that I like to sing a lots and my voice is different from others. Also, the choir conductor encouraged me to study voice many times. With his courage, I could decide to study voice.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Music field is really competitive. I have worked at Opera North last summer for two months. When I got young artist program at Opera North, I was really honored because it was really competitive to get it. There were over 600 applicants who applied that program. However, only 16 singers could join the program. Through the program, I could improve my musicality and had good opportunity to sing on the stage. Second, I often sing at church offering or special service. After singing, when people told me your singing made me touched and comfort I feel really happy and proud of me.

Again, this piano chord chart will look very similar to the C Major example above, just with the added B or Major 7th.     Major 6th Chords   These chords are a favorite among songwriters and composers because they are can be heard as both Major and Minor chords. For example, a C Major 6th chord is made up of the notes C-E-G-A, and an A Minor 6th chord is made up of the notes A-C-E-G, the same notes but in a different order (we’d call that a chord inversion in music theory).

The first chord of the bridge (bar 17 of the form) is especially striking because of this, and it’s the perfect place to use the whole tone scale. I’ve written ... Read More

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.
