Piano Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

My ultimate goal as a teacher is to create independent musicians capable of creative thinking and musicality long after they have left my studio. While reading the notes and rhythms is obviously important, understanding why those notes, rhythms or markings are in the music will help students develop and learn musicianship skills that are often overlooked. Providing students with performance opportunities and sharing my passion for music help students stay encouraged and become creative and independent thinkers not just in music, but other areas of life as well.

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Organ, Accordion, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I give all of my students a mixture of technical exercises, repertoire pieces, and creative assignments to keep things interesting and varied. We will spend about half of the lesson on technique and theory, and the other half on understanding, and appreciating different musical styles and how to improvise comfortably and confidently over them. I have a much heavier focus on songwriting, and composing than most teachers, and I encourage my students to be as creative as possible while giving them the tools to do so effectively and correctly.

I feel it is important to address each students learning style on an individual level. For young children and beginner's, I pull from resources that encourage basic fundamentals, not inclusive or limited to, Bastein, Alfred, Faber & Faber, and Hal Leonard. According to one's ability and interest, Hanon, Sonatina's Sonata's, familiar and classic's, are encouraged. Different genre's are used as part of performance and support in teaching a theory, technic, ear/sight reading, or performance application. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my early ministry days. I begin teaching private lessons part time while I was a music instructor at a charter school and full time ministry leading choir. Many of my students have gone on the collage with a music scholarship and are now leading full time in churches. I found that teaching students to study the style of music they are playing will go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
