Ellen Z

Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder

I am enthusiastic about music and enjoy giving my students the tools they will need to achieve their dreams.  I don't believe I've taught two students in exactly the same way. I like to tailor my teaching for each individual I teach. I do keep in mind that some of my learners are more Visual learners, others more kinesthetic, and others more auditory.  I make use of their strengths to help them develop new musical skills.

Matthew M

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Ukulele

I have played with an extensive list of musical groups in various styles. I have been a part of the Hazleton Liberty Band (which has roots tracing back to the Civil War) and church groups since high school. In college, I was a part of smal woodwind chamber ensembles, concert band, choirs, marching band, big bands, and small jazz ensembles. I continue to stay active in many diverse musical groups.

Keegan D

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola

For the beginning student, I typically suggest a collection of specific studies from an array of sources, some designed simply for technique and others for the development of musical understanding. Naturally, these depend on the individual and their needs. I am most dedicated to facilitating the needs of each individual student and providing them the ability to express their musical ideas clearly and easily. For more advanced students, I will focus on honing technical proficiency and challenging them with new repertoire, preparing them for new musical opportunities, such as youth orchestras, chamber music, recitals, and competitions to further their growth.

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Viola Keyboard

Music is deeply personal; one must get to know each student's own personality, interests, and connections to music. Early on (both in the teaching relationship and in each lesson) one must assess where the student is, as to technical and musical growth, and with the music at hand. Then one finds, models, explains and encourages the next steps the student can achieve. Clear guidance and dialogue about what will happen outside the studio (listening, practice, rehearsal, performance) helps turn the weekly cycle of lessons into an upward spiral of progress, achievement, and reward.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Flute Harmonica Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is relaxed and organic. Don't get me wrong, we will work hard! But it will be fun and enriching. I teach my students to appreciate the music they make, and to listen to themselves for what is working well, in addition to what can be improved. At the end of each lesson, the student and I collaborate to make goals for daily practice. Every few weeks, my students and I collaborate on goals for next few weeks and the next few months.

Ian N

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Music Keyboard Electric Guitar

I have been playing and practicing the drum set consistently since I began in my early adolescence. Over the past decade, I have performed with dozens of ensembles of varying styles from jazz orchestras to rock outfits to more off-kilter projects. I have also joined many profession groups on regional tours, as well asdtracked in studios as a session musician. In 2019, I graduated from Drexel University with a Bachelor degree in Audio Engineering and Music, studying the other half of music that people often find confusing. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Mason E

Instruments: Piano Voice

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
A little bit of both; in college, I knew I couldn't possibly study anything else. How could I possibly dedicate 4 years of my life to studying some academic major when there's a building of people doing music 24/7 just across campus? When I left college, I initially took a job where I played a lot of music, but was working almost entirely with non-musicians. It's not that I didn't like it, but once the opportunity arose to compose and music direct a play at my alma mater, I remembered how much I loved being in that environment. I moved out to the Philadelphia area and rededicated myself to making music full-time!

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in music composition; I had never composed before college, but it was such an amazing practical application of all the theoretical knowledge I had amassed. I also tend to have specific artistic visions for how music should be performed, so creating my own music from start to finish was incredibly gratifying. The more I composed, the better understanding I had for the music I was performing, which in turn made me a better composer again. I love the way composition betters my performance and vice versa!

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love musical theater! It almost feels absurd to call it its own genre, because really, theater is just a venue through which all sorts of different genres can be played. Are we really supposed to call "Hamilton," "Les Miserables," "Rent," and "Pirates of Penzance" all the same genre? There's such incredible diversity, not only in style, but in emotion too. Every time I think I've found my favorite musical, I find another that I love even more, and the best part is that unlike many musical genres, I think the best musical theater composers of all time are alive and writing today.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My dad sang in an a cappella group in college and also arranged music for them; I definitely get my musicality from him. So do both of my brothers! We all sing, we all play piano, and sometimes both my dad's dad and my mom's dad join us; the six of us have a fully functional sextet that we often perform with in church. Some of the most fun I've had has been improvising harmonies to songs we love (or barely know) with my two brothers and my dad around the piano. My dad and I have sang together more than almost anyone else, and every time someone tells me I sound like him, it's one of the best compliments I could get!

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.
