Music Lessons Arkansas

Instruments: Saxophone, Clarinet, Music

I love seeing students develop a passion for music. Each student learns differently. A teaching style that may work for one student may not work on another. I must be flexible in my teaching methods to adapt to each student and their needs. Especially in the beginning, it's important for students to know that they have made progress and accomplishments. I try to do this by setting goals and doing my best to help them achieve those goals. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Bass Guitar, Double Bass, Music

I believe that one of the most important things a musician can do is to find and develop their own voice on their instrument. Listening to the greats like Miles Davis, Jaco Pastorius, Jimi Hendrix, and Chick Corea illustrate how a unique voice can manifest itself and make the music so much more powerful. Additionally, finding their own voice is important outside of music as well. To keep students engaged and improving, we will also set smaller more immediately achievable goals. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Violin, Flute, Ukulele, Recorder, Piccolo, Music, Keyboard, Acoustic Guitar

For piano students I usually use Piano Adventures method books while supplementing with scales, pop and classical repertoire, theory, ear training, history and more. For ukulele and guitar we focus on strumming patterns, rhythm, chords, and repertoire anywhere from rock or pop to classical. Sometimes I will use a method book for guitar or ukulele students if they like that fit. I subscribe to Everand to access a library of music regularly for my students. Read More

For my beginner students it varies for me when it comes to my delivery method I like to use colors and shapes to be reflective. I use the Bruce Pearson "Standard of Excellence Book 1. with this learning method it allows me to develop the student in a pace that works for them allowing the basic fundaments of music, Fingering, scales, & solo pieces with diagrams and pictures demonstrating the steps. for my Intermediate and Advance level I use the same book but Book 2 teaching similar as Book 1 but it also gives more styles of fingering and more detailed & intense lessons.
