Everyone has the capacity to be a musician...therefore, I teach students of all ages and include all cultures (all styles and musical genres). No one is a 'beginner' when it comes to recognizing great music, so I strive to create musicians who can reach their own goals...thus, building independence is the key: My job is done when my students can do what I do without needing me! For more experienced students, I assess your present skills upon our first lesson via a variety of repertoire so as to 'diagnose' what areas you need improvement on musically speaking. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Trumpet, Saxophone, Clarinet, Bass Guitar

I HAVE A SOME BUT AGGRESSIVE TEACHING STYLE BECAUSE I WANT STUDENTS TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY CAN RESPOND UNDER PRESSURE WHEN PERFORMING. I ENCOURAGE STUDENTS TO SET GOALS AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE ACCOMPLISHING EVERYTHING THAT THEY WANT TO ACCOMPLISH. I ALWAYS START OFF AND TAYLOR THE STUDENTS DESIRE OF LEARNING SO THAT THEY ARE EAGER TO LEARN AND HAVE FUN WHEN THEY PRACTICE OR PERFORM. I ALWAYS TRY TO KEEP THE PACE MOVING SO THAT THEY WILL NOT LOSE FOCUS AND STAY ON PACE FOR SUCCESS. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Classical Guitar

I am a cellist and guitarist from El Paso, TX. I studied at Baylor University working towards a Bachelor of Music Education. I have been private teaching for five years and have received glowing reviews from all my past students. I have also student taught in Frisco, one of the fastest growing cities in Texas. Along with this, I am passionate for students receiving a music education. If selected I will take the time and energy necessary to make sure that each student receives a thorough understanding of all things music, including history, playing technique, and even some theory.

Instruments: Guitar, Violin

For beginners, I start with Suzuki school violin and guitar books. Once the student has a grasp of the fundamentals I introduce pieces or may have the student pick out a pice they'd like to work on. For more intermediate players I generally try to help them with music they may already be working on and give them studies to practice relevant techniques. Regardless of instrument, I take both a technical and theoretical approach to teaching. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Violin, Saxophone, Bass Guitar, Banjo, Ukulele, Mandolin, Electric Violin, Fiddle

I allow students to work at their own pace while also setting realistic attainable goals. I want students to feel relaxed during their lessons so I try to establish an atmosphere that's both informal yet studious. One of my top priorities as a teacher is to understand what a student is most interested in and then focus our lessons on what they love. The best way to understand technique and theory is to apply it to something that you enjoy so I always try to attain this! Read More
