Stanley K

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Music Keyboard

At this point, I encourage the student to bring in any of their favorite songs that they (or their parents) would like for them to play and I custom create an arrangement that is suitable for their abilities. This method allows the student to not only understand the names of the notes and develop proper technique, but it also gives the student a tremendous confidence boost and allows them to have fun making music!

Woody H

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar

I have been featured as a solo guitarist in many area venues and am currently performing throughout the Tri-State as one half of the "Dina Woody" duo. Teaching highlights include preparing students for recitals, auditions and/or on the gig performance allowing myself to enjoy the gratification that comes with their success. I have been fortunate to mentor more than a few on to prominent music programs, some of whom enjoy part full-time careers in the art. Read More

Brunette J

Instruments: Piano Clarinet

For students, both children and adults, I like to put great emphasis on ear training and improvisation. Although I emphasize ear training and improvisation, I do not neglect sight reading and learning repertoire. I make sure to balance these two as well as make sure the student is practicing songs they enjoy as well! Read More

Katherine G

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Saxophone Flute Clarinet Ukulele Oboe Bassoon English Horn Keyboard

I began teaching oboe and piano lessons when I was in college at Ball State University, about 8 years ago, and have added the other instruments over the course of the last 5 years. I struggled with intense performance anxiety, and found that singing at open mics relieved some of the stress I felt when I played the oboe. I encourage singing everything through before even touching the instrument, and ask all of my students to get comfortable with singing in lessons, because it's going to happen! Read More

Richard V

Instruments: Piano Voice Recorder Conga Latin Percussion Keyboard

I use a Bastein method series as well as Alfred Method series always understood a grading picture from pre A to book H also use technique and theory books to make a well rounded education in understanding and performing on the piano. Hannon as well as some other books would be used. as well as i use bel canto technique for singing which is controlling the vocal cords the alignment and how they work also extensive training on vowel placement and positioning of vocal chords thru singing in particular at the break in vocal range.

Shy K

Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer

I always ask first what the student is looking to gain from these lessons, what pieces will he be interested in learning and who are his favorite composers. If that doesn't yield much, I will try to discover what are the student's interests and will try to approach him in a language that will excite him. Teachers need to be able to either keep the flame of the student going, or polish that flame. Read More

Yuriy G

Instruments: Piano Bass Guitar Double Bass Keyboard

For beginners, I normally start with simple melodies and exercises. Scales and tunes can be added at a certain point. From early on, I also focus on ear training - the essential part of music learning - so a student gradually learns to hear what he/she plays. Sight reading music is also incorporated in the process from early stages. As for adults, I discuss the particular person's interests and goals as well as assess his/her ability level in order to shape the learning process with maximum efficiency. Read More

...viola that is right for you. The Mythical Full-Sized Viola   Several weeks ago, as I was unpacking my 16.5” viola in front of my beginning third grade class, one wide-eyed violist asked with awe, “Is that a full-sized?” This is a trick question of sorts because there is actually no such thing as a full-sized viola! Unlike the longstanding tradition behind the modern violin and cello that we know today, the process of viola making has never been completely standardized. It is a simple matter of practicality: to build a viola that replicates the acoustically perfected proportions of a violin ... Read More

Some are adjustable and attach to the chair, while others are independent, and are usually made of a rubber type material as to prevent the instrument from slipping. Little extras you will need for string lessons: Rosin: All students will need rosin for their bow.

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.
