I am originally from Northeast Kansas, where I started playing guitar and studying music at the age of 9.

While studying guitar, I had several influential teachers, including internationally renowned finger-style guitarist, Andy McKee, and University of Montana Professor of Music and Classical Guitar, Dr. Luis Millan.

Later, in my teens, I also began playing the Banjo, Mandolin, accordion, and other various instruments.

While attending college at Washburn University in Topeka, KS, I began teaching private music lessons to students of all ages, and experience levels in Northeast Kansas. During this time, I also recorded and regularly performed with my bluegrass/country/cajun band.

I have experience playing and teaching numerous genres including rock, pop, country, blues, jazz, bluegrass, cajun/zydeco, reggae, classical, folk, etc.

I relocated to the Denver, CO area in the spring of 2011 after completion of my degree from Washburn University. I continue to teach...

Originally from Chicago, I attended Chicago Musical College for 2 years before moving to Calif. and receiving my B.A. in music from Cal. State Northridge. I also have an M.A. in Education from there.

I am happy to be teaching with TakeLessons, and can teach you piano, guitar, accordion, and music theory!

Born in France, raised in Sacramento, I took to music at age five and studied piano formally for twenty years.

I've lived in Europe and the U.S. teaching and playing music.

I am trained pianist and composer, and have spent years teaching, and can teach you or your child a systematic, intuitive method for learning piano. Learning your instrument should be encouraging, exciting and about the creativity in music!

I can teach you how to play songs, read music, learn the basics behind music theory and much more.

We can also tailor the lesson to your interests - blues, pop, modern.

I have spent the last four year writing, producing and licensing music in New York City, and have written modern and classical music on piano and for various ensembles. My work can be heard on HBO, Showtime and in various films.

Jill holds a Bachelor's degree in Music Education and has master's work in choral music. For many years she has taught private and group music lessons to all ages and many varying styles of singing and instrumental music. Her lessons are unlike the ones she remembers from childhood; Jill's lessons are full of fun and excitement each week. It is amazing how students react to Jill's great humor and the lessons certainly prove that learning is a process. Jill brings more than just technique to the studio.

Having been a soloist herself, Jill knows what it takes to prepare and rehearse and therefore she makes it clear which concept the student will learn each week. With an instrumental and choral background, Jill brings music to life and then shares with the students how to keep music in their lives forever.

Jill has worked with children in many schools, churches and after school programs that she designed. Her success with students who are very young or...

Hi! I've traveled to Ireland, Austria, and Italy to study music, and I'm ready to bring it back and share it with you.

My piano lessons started before preschool at age 3; since then, I have taught myself many other instruments and styles, including classical training in violin and viola. For my semester abroad I studied music with the best in Vienna, Austria, the European capitol of classical music. I'm hoping to enter the Music Theory program at the University of Louisville graduate program so I can continue learning and eventually become a professor.

I teach my students how to understand how music is put together so they can learn even more on their own.

I read, write, and play all styles and I focus on teaching the student fundamentals that work in all styles of music ....AND I get them going on the style they are interested in - pop, rock, country, folk, etc.

I have spent my entire life in the music industry and I can show you how to use what I teach to apply to the real world. I have also been a successful songwriter and I can work with students to learn about song structure and song writing.

I am also good at preparing students for college music classes.

During my time at the Florida State University College of Music I studied Theory and Composition. My primary instrument during this time was guitar, though I took a wide variety of lessons on various instruments. I want to use my experience and background in classical music to teach my students the best way I know how.

I am a 1991 graduate of Tallinn Conservatory in Tallinn, Estonia, where I studied music education, child psychology, choir conducting and voice. While a student, I gained experience as a choir conductor-associate and concert administrator for Tallinn Philharmonic Society. I managed music festivals of all kind and local and foreign musicians.

I arrived in San Francisco in 1992 for the Estonian Mixed Choir. I conducted the choir and was an accordionist for Estonian folk dancers until 1995. I enjoyed playing the accordion with ALSI (Accordion Lovers Society International) Ensemble in San Diego (also produced a CD recording with them).
I give private instruction in piano, accordion and choir conducting.
I also sing and have produced recordings with several classical vocal groups in San Diego: Cappella Gloriana, Bach Collegium San Diego and ad hoc hire. In the past I've sang with San Diego Chamber Chorale, Pacific Camerata and Madonna Non Papa.
I am fluent in English,...
