Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching since 2009 and was an Associate Instructor for the Jacobs School of Music. I love versatile teaching in different genre and styles. My priority is always the student. I feel accomplished if a student comes to our lesson excited and looking for a new piece to learn. I have had students that are now completing their bachelors and masters in Music Performance studies. As an international concert guitarist, I had the chance to perform in various settings and love to talk about music in general! Read More

I am a Detroit-native international multi-genre musician, vocalist, producer, composer, arranger, orchestrator, writer (librettist, lyricist), and show programmer. I also am a proud graduate of Grand Valley State University (GVSU) having obtained a B.S. in Art Politics with a focus on Curriculum Ethos. I serve as music director for a number of artists including the well-known RB mavens Atlantic Starr, Marena Oates-Clunie, and others. Prolific musicianship has afforded me performance and collaborative efforts with artists such as Prince-protg Sue Ann Carwell, Twinkie Clark, Fred Hammond and Valerie Simpson just to name a few.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Recorder Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Hello future students! I much enjoy sharing my experience as a creative musician to my students whether they are 5 or 55, beginner or advanced. I am a patient teacher and do my best to encourage each student to find themselves as unique learners (musicians) unto themselves. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2002 with a BA focus on Music Composition. While recently living in NYC, I formed a 12-member saxophone orchestra, composed and recorded two symphonies, performed and recorded with the late Glenn Branca's 100 Guitar Ensemble, and provided live Sound Design for renowned poetess Anne Carson.

Instruments: Piano
My favorite thing about teaching is that no two students are the same; and no two lessons with the same student are either! It is so important to establish a goal for a student to work towards, so that they know what they're practicing for. Not huge goals either that are months away, but goals that can be accomplished between each lesson. The best part of the job is seeing students get excited for music, and being able to grow in such a way that they're able to put their personality into their performances. Read More

I'm a lifelong musician, and have been playing piano for 25 years and violin, guitar, and double bass for over 15 years. I taught K-12 band, orchestra, choir, and general music. I was a guitar songleader a camp for 7 summers. I played in orchestras and jazz bands through high school and college. I also play cocktail piano and campfire guitar for weddings and events.

I sometimes fill in teaching in a theater class for vocals and guitar. My teaching experience goes back to my days trying to show my friends and family how to play a chord. I love composing my original material and I am always looking to teach new students! I have worked with children for almost ten years, but any age group is fine! I have some teaching experience, but mainly through Psychology. Read More

When will I start to see results?
You should start to see results in no later than a month. I believe that if the student has an instrument and is serious about being a musician then the natural ambition they possess will drive them to be successful also. Motivation at home is also a key factor. A good diet and exercise is a great way to see results even in music! Sometimes the student may want to learn a favorite song on the instrument for cool points with themselves or for entertainment. This is s great way to see progress quickly since they already enjoy the tune. So likely they will learn it fast as possible!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes. My grandfather was my first inspiration. He was a guitarist and keyboard player. I would listen to him play all the time when I lived with him and my granny as a kid. When I was around 12 years old I knew that I wanted to be a guitarist. I heard Led Zeppelin and I was blown away! Then I heard Jimi Hendrix and I definitely knew I was going to be a professional musician. Around 11th grade my band teacher put me in the orchestra because I would always come to the band room during lunch and play the double bass
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You will know if the student is a good student in other classes besides music and if they have discipline. Good conduct and moral standards are important also. Respect for others and themselves. If they can be confident in asking questions and not feel embarrassed about being wrong sometimes is a good indication in my opinion. If the child shows a natural talent for music and they constantly are creating sounds with their mouth or banging on things is a good indication also. If the the student likes to dance then that is s good indication also in my opinion.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
It is a very important part of musical growth. I always have stood by practice like you play. The more time the student spend with the instruments the better they will become. But I also believe that playing your instruments a lot does not necessarily make one a better musician. The student had to get out of the comfort zone and practice things that are challenging and sometimes opposite of what they may like musically. Practicing slow and methodically will greatly improve a students technique and tone while also making them more confident to learn the music.
