As a graduate of the University of Toledo with a Master of Music Education, I believe I have the valuable training and educational background to help you achieve your musical goals in the areas of voice and guitar.

During the course of my education, I was responsible for singing a wide range of parts in sacred and secular groups; from Soprano I down to Alto II. I was often recognized by the directors as an informal section leader, who was relied upon to take the lead. In addition, I gained solo experience as a Music Education student with a vocal concentration at the University of Toledo. I performed for the recital class each semester as well as for juries, and was also a member of Opera Workshop, where I performed opera pieces as a soloist as well as in ensemble.

I have been playing guitar for 14 years; 4 of them professionally as a singer/guitarist in at local events. I have also recorded 2 cds of original music. I have experience teaching both voice and guitar to adults...

Hello eager students! My name is Nick and I have been recording and performing in the Toledo area for 12 years. In that time I have put out five studio records including: Strydir Lee, Careless and Free, Acoustics Volume 1, Electric Money Burns, and Phony Cosmic Clues. I have played on a number of local stages here in Toledo and gained a large following on stages in Chicago, Cincinnati and Detroit. I was even lucky enough to perform live on the Mitch Albom radio show! Over the years students and friends have come to me to learn how to play guitar or bass and how to write their own music. So not only will I give you professional lessons but I'll also allow you to record in my studio with me so you can create your own masterpiece! What I can teach is an understanding of music that allows you to create your own and show it to the world.

I love to sing and act. I love to teach. I love to set goals, take the steps to achieve them, and to continue onward in expanding those goals. Music is wonderful. It has encompassed the world in every way. Acting is an art form that has been a vital influence on world culture for centuries. I want to share these gifts, and help them grow with as many people as I can.

Having grown up with music (my Dad was a drummer in the Navy and in several local dance bands), it’s difficult to believe I have been able to make a living doing something I have enjoyed all my life. Starting, obviously on the drums, I was involved at an early age in a marching drum and baton corp that played in numerous parades throughout the summer months. I played tenor drum and ended up playing glockenspiel, learning the two songs “Five Foot Two” and “Ain’t She Sweet.” Shortly after that I began learning to play the organ. I started out at a local music store learning things like “Alley Cat” and “Whispering,” and after a few years moving on to lessons from a local Church Organist and my career blossomed from there.

In high school I was involved in several vocal and instrumental ensembles, including Choir, Handbells, and a select smaller vocal ensemble. During this time I was cast in several musicals including “Brigadoon” and as Ali Hakim in...

Hello! My name is Lauren O. I am a junior at Bowling Green State University studying music education. I have been playing the violin for ten years and have been teaching lessons for five. I am currently playing in the BGSU Philharmonia and was recently concertmaster for "The Mikado," an opera by Gilbert and Sullivan performed at BGSU. I have worked with students from ages five to eighteen, but welcome all ages above five!
Right now I teach lessons in two volunteer programs; the Music Plus program and the PATHE program. In both of these programs, i teach two, half-hour long lessons. In the Music Plus program, I also help run two, half-hour long group ensembles. Besides these programs, I have been through two and a half years of intensive music training and have had a lot of field experience through my major. Teaching music is my passion!
I like to cater my teaching style towards my student and what they want to gain from the experience. Technical work is a must, but adding a fun...
