Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar

While I'm very new at teaching music, I have many years of experience in teaching in general. I've been pretty successful as a private math tutor since 2009, and more recently I've also been tutoring in ACT prep, SAT, prep, and C++. I'm very glad to be transitioning to music, since that is a topic I'm very passionate about. I love so many things about teaching, and I can't wait to see how they transfer to music lessons.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Banjo Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am a passionate and motivated musician and teacher. I started playing guitar back in 1996. Over the years, my passion for music and love for guitar allowed me to play in numerous bands, covering all forms of music. I later decided to study music under the finest musicians this region has to offer. This is where I honed my skills in Jazz Guitar, Classical Guitar, Jazz Bass, Jazz Piano, Jazz and Classical Composition, Jazz Arranging, Jazz and Classical Pedagogy, Jazz and Classical Conducting, Latin Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Modern Jazz, Large Jazz Ensemble, Guitar Ensemble, Live Sound and Audio Recording.

Instruments: Piano Voice

I also am a strong believer in technique. All of my vocal students will be working on breathing technique. When you are a vocalist, your body is your instrument, and you must know how to produce sound correctly and healthily in order to be as successful as possible. As for pianists, my teaching ability is for beginner and intermediate students only. I truly believe that theory is a very important aspect of piano playing, and I will probably begin with a book that has a theory aspect to match the playing assignments, as I did with my past piano students.

Zoe L

Instruments: Piano Organ Music

I believe that every child is born with music talent. You can notice that a child can dance or response to the music you played naturally. Thats all because they are born to be a musician, therefore we should put the utmost effort into educating them. And I believe that the earlier they receive the music education, the better music foundation they will have. Therefore, I hope to create a great music learning experience and offer quality education for my young students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Recorder Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching as a teenager when I was in Ann Arbor's psychedelic rock band SPROTON LAYER. I have taught friends and family off and on for many years. During the economic crash in 2009, I took a course on Teaching to understand different age groups and varied approaches in learning. Since then, I have taught steadily and found it very rewarding. One of the hardest things to get across to the Student is that the single most important thing to do is Play. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Viola Bass Guitar Synthesizer Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Lute Electric Violin Fiddle Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I create play-along videos, so that kids have something specific to practice at home. I use "Read this First" as a note reading book. Students play along with me and also by themselves at lessons. Eventually kids can gather together and play as a group if they wish to do so. I start with memorization, and easy ways of writing down the songs... and eventually kids will learn to read music, after they've secured a basic technique. Read More

Valeri W

Instruments: Piano

For very young beginning students, I typically start with Faber Piano Adventures, and for older beginners, the Faber Accelerated Piano Adventures or Hal Leonard Adult Learner Series. Once the student has shown an understanding of basic theory and technique, classical repertoire will be introduced, along with level appropriate arrangements of the student's choice music. It's important that the student is taught how to practice a piece effectively to continue growing musically in between lessons, so that lessons can be used to find areas for improvement, and to learn new concepts and material.

Teacher In Spotlight

Andreas D

Instruments: Violin Viola

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Well, if I weren't a musician, I think I would still be involved in something related to teaching and helping others learn and grow. Music has always been my passion, and teaching the violin and viola to young students like your child is incredibly fulfilling for me. If I had to choose an alternative career path, I might have become an educator or a mentor in a different field. I enjoy sharing knowledge and inspiring others to reach their full potential, so perhaps I would have become a teacher in a different subject, a tutor, or even a counselor. Ultimately, my desire to make a positive impact on people's lives through education and guidance would have remained a driving force, even if it weren't in the realm of music.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Well, I must say, as a classical violin and viola instructor, my favorite style of music to play is, unsurprisingly, classical music! There are several reasons why I have a deep appreciation for this genre. Firstly, classical music offers a rich and diverse repertoire that spans several centuries. From the beautiful melodies of composers like Mozart and Beethoven to the complex and emotional works of Tchaikovsky and Brahms, there's a vast array of music to explore and enjoy. Secondly, classical music provides a fantastic opportunity to develop technical skills on the violin and viola. The intricate phrasing, bowing techniques, and fingerings required in classical pieces challenge both beginners and advanced players, making it a constant journey of improvement and growth. Moreover, classical music has a timeless quality that allows us to connect with the past and the musicians who came before us. It's a way to preserve and celebrate the cultural heritage of different eras, which I find quite fascinating. Lastly, classical music allows for a deep emotional connection with the instrument and the audience. The power of classical music to convey complex emotions and tell stories through music is truly remarkable. It's a rewarding experience to share these emotions with both the players and the listeners. So, while I enjoy various musical styles, classical music remains my favorite due to its depth, diversity, technical challenges, and the profound emotional connection it offers. And I hope to share my passion for this genre with your child as we continue our violin and viola lessons!

Beginner Guitar Solos: Getting Started with Improvisation

...once said, “Music is the space between notes.” Good guitar soloists don’t just barrage listeners with a constant stream of notes. They learn to give passages of music plenty of time to breathe and sink in. They realize that the notes they’re playing will have far more potency if they’re played at just the right time. You can liken this to other artistic mediums like painting or photography where too much of something often begins to take away from the original idea.   Now that you know a little bit more about guitar solos, we’re going to show you how to get started with improvising and writing...

2 Chord Songs: Easy Songs for Guitar

...As you first start out playing guitar, one of the greatest difficulties that new players have is changing between many different chords. It takes a long time and a great deal of practice to get your fingers to the point where they can move quickly and smoothly between any variety of guitar chords. As you develop the required muscle memory, a great source of frustration is not knowing how to play a song all the way through, from start to finish. Most songs have multiple sections with many different chord changes that can make it difficult for new players to get beyond the introduction. Fortunately, ... Read More

Opera Voice Types

...Fricka from Wagner’s Die Walküre.   The Contralto Voice   First off, listen to “Erda’s Warning” from Das Rheingold by Wagner. Enough said. Contralto opera voice parts come as more of a commodity, and you won’t hear them every day. In fact, it’s so rare to find a legitimate operatic contralto that dramatic mezzo sopranos often have to sing contralto roles (much to their chagrin, we can imagine). Contralto voices are characterized by an exceptionally deep, rich, and powerful timbre–Marian Anderson is arguably the best example. Contralto is the lowest of the female opera voice types.   Male Opera Voice Types   ... Read More

Types of Clarinets

...You can hear the clarinet in many different types of clarinets in all sorts of music, from classical to jazz, marching band to rock, Broadway to klezmer. The first iteration of the modern day clarinet was invented around the year 1700. Its predecessor was the chalumeau.   When people talk about the clarinet, the word “clarinet” by itself always refers to the Bb clarinet. However, there are several different types of clarinets. The number and types of clarinets a typical clarinet player owns depends on the types of music he or she plays. A jazz player may own a Bb clarinet and a ... Read More

How To Write a Pop Song

...song as a whole.   Other Sections   Verses and choruses are a Pop song’s staple sections, but they’re by no means the only sections. When learning how to write a pop song, intros, endings, bridges, and instrumental sections should be studied as well. They are powerful songwriting tools that can add valuable character, momentum, and direction to the music you’re writing. A thoughtfully-constructed intro is your way to set the tone of your song by introducing instruments, suggesting a tonality, and constructing a mood. The intro is your chance to define a mood that will carry through your song or hint at ... 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.
