Kelly U

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

I desire for the student to learn as much about themselves as they do their instrument. I believe that piano and voice are conduits for expression of emotion and thought and are extremely beneficial in helping students find confidence and awareness. My main motto is that EVERYONE can make music and so I encourage all types of people to learn at my studio. Music and performance as a profession will only last if the student has passion for it so I try to encourage each student to discover why they want to pursue music throughout lessons. Read More

Mackenzie B

Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Music

I've been slowly teaching private lessons while I've been in the final years of college. With the KU curriculum, I have had to learn how to work with children from Pre-K to 12th grade, which means any age is something I've been prepared for. Also, I got to sing with the Intergenerational choir at KU, which would happen at the local community center with senior-aged people. I've sung jazz, musical theater, and classical pieces since high school. Read More

Emily W

Instruments: Piano Voice

I’m a recent college graduate with a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance and Pedagogy. I started taking piano lessons when I was eight years old, and continued lessons through high school and for a few semesters in college. I started singing in choir when I was 10 years old, and have been in one or more choirs ever since! I started taking private voice lessons in high school and decided to choose voice as my college major. Read More

Hadiza S

Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard

I work to deconstruct this notion and help to build confidence in their ability to learn and develop. Positive affirmation is how I work. I believe focusing on the strengths of a student while working to develop past what may be perceived as weaknesses is paramount to cultivating a life long relationship with music. Although I am a stickler for practicing, I do this because we are setting goals for each lesson and the only way to reach these goals is through consistent practice. Read More

Josiah M

Instruments: Voice Drums Orchestral Percussion

For the young students who are just starting out in vocal lessons I like to recommend starting with the proper breathing techniques and moving in to singing from the diaphragm and more experienced techniques will follow after that. After we have touched on those techniques we will move in to the performance portion of the lessons and how to connect with the song and then being able to portray the message of the song clearly and efficiently to the audience so that they can connect to the emotions that are coming from the song.

Stephanie B

Instruments: Piano Voice

Teaching is my passion! I have been a private piano and voice instructor for over 10 years, as well as a classroom teacher for over 12. I love finding the gifts in all students and nurturing those gifts by sharing my love of music and knowledge. I graduated from Northwest Missouri State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Music Education. My career as a musician has given me many enriching opportunities to be involved in vocal performances and teacher-led performances over the last 12 years. Read More

Marina G

Instruments: Piano Voice

I am a native of Russia. In 2001 I moved to the United States. In 2005 I became a US citizen. I studied music for seven years to earn my Bachelor of Arts degree in vocals and piano. I studied six more years in conservatory to obtain my Masters degrees in music performance and education. I love to teach and to see my students progress in their musical studies. I enjoy communicating with my students and their parents, if applicable. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Kai M

Instruments: Voice

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I come from a long line of singers and instrumentalists. Many of my family members are recording artists as well. My grandparents were well known Gospel artists back in the day and I have many relatives that were well known instrumentalists. I am following the footsteps that have walked before me.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I think I would still be teaching, but teaching general education instead of music.

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite style/genres to sing are Neo Soul and R&B, however, I love to surprise people by singing Opera, Classical and Tejano because they do not expect me to know how to sing those styles.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew at age 12 that I wanted to be a professional musician. It was a defining moment for me after overcoming my fear of singing solo. I realized how much I enjoyed singing solo in front of a crowd. I immediately became hooked and since then, I have always looked forward to (and hustled for) the next opportunity.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a bachelor's degree in Vocal Music.

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to perform a piece by Selena Quintanilla. Her songs are in Spanish and I like to challenge myself to learn the lyrics and style. In college, students were never required to learn songs in Spanish and I would love to change the trajectory of that.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of being a recording artist and songwriter. People around the world are hearing songs that I either was on vocally or have helped to write.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Singing has been a part of me since I was two years old. It is an indescribable feeling to get up in front of a crowd and share your heart through song.

When will I start to see results?
Everybody is different and starts at different starting points. If a student is consistent in attending lessons and practicing at home, results will come rather quickly. If results don't come immediately, I like to say to stick with it a little longer. Some things take a little more time.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I believe that a parent/guardian should have a conversation with their child about lessons before signing up. It'll be more enjoyable for a child that wants to be there than a child who is being forced to take lessons.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing should be fun! All too often, practicing feels like a chore when it shouldn't. Students should take notes during lessons and choose 3 things to work on during their at home practices. Especially when it comes to technique. Don't overwhelm yourself with the amount of hours practicing. A few minutes a day is just as effective (if not more) than 5 hours of practice a day.

Most Fender guitars feature single coil pick-ups, lending to a very distinct bluesy sound with more twang and less punch than a humbucking guitar. The Fender Stratocaster is the iconic counterpart to the Gibson Les Paul. The smoothly contoured body is very comfortable to hold and play, and it’s one of the lighter popular guitar models. Usually produced from alder wood, they have a particularly rich, warm tone. Unlike most Gibson models, Fender Stratocasters make use of a floating tremolo system, which allows the player...

I urge you to be as creative as you can here. Whatever you do, try to find the character of the song and write in a way that suits it.   A composition trick I like to use is to borrow a memorable melody from one section of the song and feature it in another section with a different chord structure. Presenting a familiar melody over new music is a great ... Read More

Broadly speaking, the more expensive models will yield a more natural feel and more expressive response- the very cheapest are best avoided, as their weaknesses are more than likely to lead to a great deal of frustration. Buying an electronic set would not be my first choice, but if you’re low on space or worried about disturbing the neighbors, it is a solution to consider.   How are drums sold?

If it helps you to get the rhythm into your heart, you shouldn’t have a difficult time controlling your motions and performing the music while sitting perfectly still – if that is required of you – and you may just do it quite ...

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
