Omar G

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Cello Viola Bass Guitar Double Bass Music Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I know everyone learns  at different speeds so making sure they are comfortable yet challenging is important to me.Being able to know when the student is enjoying and not making it a chore is a key to helping and encouraging a student learn. Watching them progress in their insturment is rewarding in of itself and nothing is more satisfying. As the student starts to see him or herself accomplish each lesson I like to praise, push and encourage to keep on. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to when I was in high school, when I began teaching beginning students of all instruments 10 years ago. I have been consistently teaching students in their homes, my home, and online for the past 5 years. Ive found that introducing students to as many different styles of music as possible goes a long way in helping students enjoy playing their instrument and listening to recordings of their instrument.

Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Keyboard

I have been teaching for the past 17 years.  I enjoy the challenge of meeting each student's needs and creating an individual teaching plan to help students achieve their goals. I have had the opportunity to work with preschool through undergraduate students. My experience as a high school chorus teacher, Teaching Artist with the Washington National Opera, guest vocalist for the Ghanian ambassador, and part-time professor have bolster my ambition to bring music to students "where they are".

Lainie P

Instruments: Voice

For all students, I like to get a sense of what sort of musical knowledge the student has before starting. It is highly important to me to figure out what exactly the student wants out of the lesson and I will adapt my teaching style to fit their needs. I am happy to take on beginning students with no knowledge of music or the voice and give them they fundamentals and work up from there. Read More

Teacher In Spotlight

Ryan G

Instruments: Drums Conga Latin Percussion Djembe

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I think it was gradual, i always knew i loved playing and learning but when i attended Pasadena City College, i knew i wanted more exposure to music.

If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I actually began playing other instruments before drums, and thats kind of how i realized i loved drums. My first instrument was piano then i started picking up the guitar and bass.

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes, me and my older brother are both drummers in our family. My great uncle played upright bass and my great grandfather was an Accordion player here in the Los Angeles area.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
No other instrument feels quite like the drums, to me. It's a lot, but when i'm in "the zone" or in "the moment"..i feel complete and pure bliss.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of every student I have helped get over a “hill” in their journey through the instrument. That first time they achieve a new groove or point of technical is pure magic to me.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Start slow, spend 10 minutes on each subject you want to practice, practice infront of a mirror, set goals, listen to the style / genre you want to learn and don’t forget to breathe.

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Marine Biologist, the ocean is a fascinating place and beautiful. I've been a big animal lover my whole life, currently a dog dad of two pups (Rocket & Missy).

What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Progressive music, doesn’t need to be complicated and doesn’t need to be fast. All progressive is a mystery when you press play, because there really is no boundaries.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Lock the door, put your phone aside, set goals, get comfortable and warm up. Anytime I sit behind my drums I want to feel refreshed and present.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I obtained my degree in Music Performance, for drums & percussion. I wanted to expand my vocabulary and challenge myself while being surrounded with like mided people / musicians.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Your own identity, I’ve been playing for 16 years and have just recently begun to figure out what statements I want to make on the instrument. Everyone can learn parts, but no one can be you.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Their passion for the instrument inspired me to keep going with what I wanted to learn. My joys, my ambitions and my influences were encouraged to be incorporated in my playing.

When will I start to see results?
In my experience, students begin to show progress after two lessons. Everyone is different and has unique strengths & weakness', this includes their process of learning new concepts / ideas.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any sign of interest with the ability to understand instructions, is all the reason to begin your journey on the instrument. Especially if they have favorite songs growing up and enjoy playng them again and again.

7th Chords: What They Are and How to Build Them

... Dominant 7th Chords: Add a Minor 3rd interval to the Perfect 5th interval of a Major chord Example: C-E-G-Bb         Dominant chords are typically referred to as just 7th chords in music. For example, if you’re learning a song on guitar and come across an A7 chord, then that chord is almost certainly a dominant 7th chord. Dominant chords are packed with tension and drama. The dissonance in this chord comes from the included Tritone interval which in our example lies between the E and Bb notes (a Tritone is an interval of 6 half steps).  ... Read More

This is also an easy and fun song to learn to sing over your guitar playing, and the vocal melody is simplistic and repetitive.     “Something In The Way” by Nirvana (D – F#m)   Nirvana’s crooning and sad dirge, “Something In The Way”, introduces a much less commonly utilized chord, F# minor. While it’s one of Nirvana’s lesser known tunes, it’s still a favorite among fans of the band, and it’s a beautiful song to learn and play on guitar. The song is played very slowly, so if you haven’t quite gotten the hang ... Read More

...make sure you master playing simple chord progressions along to the slow beat of a metronome. Add in extended chords and swung rhythms when you feel comfortable. Don’t overthink swinging rhythms. The distinct sound of a swung rhythm can be found all over popular music.   Lead Sheets   Lead sheets, which are also called fake sheets, are sheets of chord symbols and melodies that jazz musicians use to play off of. Most of these sheets are condensed down to be one page and they don’t often contain lyrics. The “Autumn Leaves” example we went through is not a typical lead sheet. ... Read More

Suzuki Performance: An Approach to Playing for an Audience

...When children begin to learn to play an instrument through the Suzuki method, performance is pretty much a guaranteed part of the program. Whether it’s showing Mom a new technique in the lesson or doing a different skill before a group class, a Suzuki performance is a natural part of learning, and the concept of ‘performing’ is no big deal when the child is ready to play.   How Is Performance Presented in the Suzuki Method? In traditional Suzuki lessons, the teacher, student, and parent are a tight-knit group. They work as a team, rather like how a sports coach works closely with the ... Read More

For example, if a piece of music is in the key of C Major and the first three notes are C E G then the solfege would be do mi sol. If the piece is in D Major, however, then D F# A would correspond to do mi sol. The intervals are exactly the same, the pitches are just a step up in the key of D Major. This is a skill most professional musicians use extensively and helps them quickly sightread any music put ... Read More

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.
