Music Lessons Oregon

Instruments: Violin, Electric Violin, Music

I have been teaching beginner to advanced violin students beginning in high school, about 10 years ago, and have continued to do so through my Bachelor's and Master's degrees at New England Conservatory in Boston, MA. I was also a violin section coach for the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. I enjoy teaching both beginner and advanced violin students; each bring their own challenges and rewards to the learning process. I like to break down the psychological nature of violin-playing and how to use practice time in a way that will maximize growth as quickly as possible. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Trumpet, Bass Guitar, Synthesizer, Music, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching music lessons to my friends and peers who were beginning to take up new instruments(piano, bass, & guitar) when I was in middle school. At that time, I had developed a strong foundation in piano, begun learning trumpet in school, and self-taught myself the guitar. In high school, I taught younger students throughout the school district private lessons in trumpet through an organization called Arts Without Boundaries - many of these students took lessons with me for multiple years.

I began teaching music lessons at Lewis Music in downtown Kissimmee, Florida in 2004. In the years that have followed I have had students from 5-90 years old and from every background imaginable. Each student is unique so I have learned to adapt to each students goals and preferences. I am happy to teach songwriting, digital music production, and music theory to my most advanced students, and it fills me with joy to hear the songs they write or perform! Read More

Instruments: Piano, Drums, Accordion, Mallet Percussion, Orchestral Percussion, Music, Djembe

I love teaching rudiments, exercises, and other valuable strategies for piano, accordion, and especially percussion! The most amazing point is seeing a student improve from where they began, no matter the amount of struggle they endure. I am a firm believer of having a student excel and learn at their own pace and the last thing I want is for a student to feel overwhelmed or even become discouraged. Setting goals is important and all goals set are realistic and reachable, no matter how small. Read More
