Piano Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Organ, Ukulele, Recorder, Keyboard

I began teaching piano at age sixteen at a music studio and have taught continuously since that time. I have successfully taught piano, guitar, and uke in my own studio as well as for other studios for many years and feel strongly that students should learn in a way that is motivating and rewarding. I have extensive experience working with young students as well as adults, and teach a variety of styles and genres of music including classical, pop/rock, country and contemporary praise music.

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Synthesizer, Keyboard

With my piano students, I prefer to use John Thompson’s piano method books, along with performance study, listening, and impromptu music theory/acoustics lessons when the subjects arise. Depending on the practice habits of the student, they should have at least 2-3 non-method book solo pieces prepared within a year’s time. Each lesson is tailored to what he student enjoys, finds challenging, and ultimately will benefit from. My vocal students will find lessons crafted specifically to their current vocal abilities, working on a wholistic approach to singing including acting, prana, yoga, health and fitness, self confidence, lifestyle coaching, and of course, the act of singing!

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Trumpet

I have been a student of music for 50 years and continue to love the older styles as well as all the new directions while music evolves. I believe music can transform a person and those transformed will touch many other lives. Being a certified speech/drama/debate instructor as well as a musician I am convinced that music is a language and needs to be taught as a language is taught. Read More

At an early age, I knew music was what I wanted to do with my life, and how I knew I would be able to touch people. My teaching experience goes back to my second year at my university and I fell in love with teaching after the very first lesson. In a never dull, quick paced setting, that accentuates each individual student's needs, I hope to never leave you bored, yet eager for the next session. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music

I started songwriting in my senior year but it wasnt until attending college that I took it seriously and pursued a career in original music. I grew up always listening to old-school RB and hip-hop, due to my family background and experiencing life as a young black American, so this style of music has a big influence in my life. However, as I started teaching music 3 years ago I developed a love and a passion for helping students reach their potential in any area and genre of music, from classical to jazz, to coaching with original music and exploring the writing process.
