If you are interested in taking Piano, Guitar or Drum Lessons, and are
from the Santa Clarita Valley, California, then you are in the right place!
I have taught music for many years. I am very good with teaching both
young children and adults in a fun and friendly environment.

I look forward to hearing from you!
Over the years I have found that private music lessons are the
most effective in learning musical instruments. Each individual
student learns at a different rate and intensity from one another.
To lump them all together in a class where they are all taught
the same lesson, is simply not the best. We all have different
gifts and learning abilities, and especially in music.

In the case of a music class with multiple students, it can be
very discouraging for some who want to move forward at a
faster rate, or, very discouraging for those who get behind and
lose interest altogether. The advantage in taking private lessons
is the instructor can work one-on-one with the student,
according to his or her specific needs, which in the long run
will build a stronger foundation and fulfillment.  

I take pride in each student I teach. The lessons are different
for each individual to insure they are progressing and enjoying
the instrument they play and love. Perhaps a student would like
to participate in a school or church talent show; we would then
change to a music piece of their choice and skill level, ahead of
time, to get them ready for the performance to follow.

Another great advantage in taking private music lessons; is that
you won't be moved from one teacher to another, as can be
the case in many music studios. Often musicians who are hired
to teach get a better offer somewhere else, or the gig they have
been waiting for, which can cause great turnover and
impersonal relationships with the students. Many of the photos
of students seen here on this web page I have taught from
early grade school to college age and beyond.

Learning music is like learning another language, and becoming
skillful at playing your instrument is a real self-esteem booster,
something I'm sure every person could use a little more of
these days! The world of music is a great thing to be part of,
whether you're young or old.

To add to the fun of learning the drums for example, because I
play piano/keyboard, the drummer (student) and I play along
together. This adds so much fun while enforcing and applying
the skills they have learned previous. There is nothing like
playing live with another person, music skills and enjoyment
build more with every lesson! To know how to apply their
instrument with others in a band is very crucial in learning. This
method of mine for teaching is also applied for piano and guitar
as well. The student sees how their lessons are paying off!

You can see by the expressions on these students faces, as
with Robert on the drums (left), they are very proud of what
they have worked hard for, knowing that not just anybody can
pick up an instrument and play. It's a talent and skill that takes
years to develop! And to this day, I have never heard anyone
tell me that they regret learning the piano, drums, guitar, or any
other instrument for that matter. Music can last a lifetime, you'll
never outgrow it. No matter how good you become you can
always do better, and have fun in the meantime, that's what
keeps the musician going!

Give me a call and let's get started!
