Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I teach and instruct piano lessons. Lessons will include piano technique, music reading, rhythm counting, performance pieces, duet music, music theory, composing, and much more. My students and I typically pick out music pieces together and I would give mini assignments to the student that are readily within their reach given a bit of practice. The type of technical and musical training I give to my students would enable them to relate to the music at hand and allow them the ability execute and express the music. Performance pieces range from various periods and genres including music composed by W. Gillock, David C Glover, M Mier, C. Rollin, J.S. Bach, W.A. Mozart, L.V. Beethoven, F. Chopin, R. Schumann, F. Mendelssohn, F.J.Haydn, D. Kabakevsky, E. Macdowell ,and Scott Joplin to name a few. I host recitals to local nursing home residents on behalf of my students. I am an approved adjudicator for the Piano Guild Exams, as well as the National Federation of Music Clubs' annual spring festivals. My students love the fact that I let them choose and pick pieces. I give out rewards to motivate them, especially the little ones. I also assign sight-reading pieces for the students; however, when the time is right and when needed, I do play the pieces for them to hear. I have over 15 years of experience in teaching and over 20 years of experience in performing.

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    1) Teaching each individual how to move their fingers along with their wrists and the entire arm in producing their desired tone and touch in order to bring shape to the musical phrase. 2) Build technique skills and strong and robust fingers out of beginner and advance students. 3) Prepare music theory lessons and worksheets. 4) Going to the music store to purchase learning material for students.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Look for teachers who are degreed with years of teaching experience. Look for teachers who do host recitals to showcase the student's talents. Look for teachers have a strong reward system to motivate their students and teach all aspects of music including note reading, to independent sight reading, and hand technique ( how to move your hands), and music theory. Naturally when the student learns enough enough theory, they will be able to compose and improvise and harmonize. Look for teachers who do participate their students in music organization events like festivals, competitions and exams.
