Hello, my name is Jimmy and I teach bass and guitar lessons. I also teach piano, but only a beginner level. I have been performing, recording, and writing music for over 15 years and can teach a wide variety of styles including rock, pop, blues, jazz, reggae, funk, latin, and many more. I have played in a range of different bands/artists throughout my career including such acts as The Fray, Rose Hill Drive, Flobots, Cary Brothers, Meese, Crosby Loggins, John Common, Hello Kavita, and many more. In addition, I have had the pleasure to play numerous gigs both nationally and around the world as well as popular TV shows such as Jay Leno, David Letterman, Conan O'Brian, Good Morning America, Ellen, Craig Ferguson, and many others. I feel through different situations such as recording, performing, writing, teaching, and learning music, I can teach many different aspects of playing an instrument. I enjoy teaching students who are eager to learn and hope to share my knowledge with...

I have been teaching for over 8 years and my unique versatility as an educator has given me the experience I need to be successful. I am an Orff-Schulwerk trained teacher, whose philosophy is based on things children like to do: sing, chant rhymes, clap, dance, and keep a beat on anything near at hand in a non-competitive atmosphere where one of the rewards is the pleasure of making good music with others. I have an outstanding rapport with children in the classroom and in one-on-one instruction. I am also a leader and a performer whether I am conducting songs at the all-school assemblies, singing in the community choir, or playing rock music in a club. In addition to the many creative projects outside of work, I am an active board member of my local Orff-Schulwerk chapter which promotes a network of music educators.

I began taking piano lessons on a whim in middle school, but it didn't take long before I realized I was completely in love with music. I enjoy playing and teaching many types of music, from classical to rock to hymns and church music. I learned to play by ear at the same time I learned to sight read, and both approaches have helped me to learn and enjoy the music I play.

I graduated last December with a BA in Music Performance from North Central University, here in the Twin Cities. I have been teaching piano lessons for the last 4 years, as well as directing a children's choir. Watching other people learn to play music is one of the greatest rewards I've received.

Hello,
My name is Beau. The bass guitar is a great passion of mine and I am excited to share my knowledge and experience with others. I am eager to teach as well as continue my own personal journey as a musician. Initially self-taught, I attended McNally Smith College of Music in St. Paul, MN where I earned a degree in Bass Performance studying under Terry Burns, Gary Raynor, Jay Young, Jeff Bailey, and Charles Fletcher.

I have been performing professionally in various original and cover/variety/wedding bands for over 6 years. I also have extensive studio performance experience constructing and recording bass lines of many different styles.

I am the weekly bass player for the contemporary and traditional worship services at St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church, and have also played bass in musical productions of Footloose and Godspell. People know me for being passionate, energetic, patient, and friendly.

Hi everyone. If you're reading this, that means you're taking the time to consider music lessons for yourself or a family member, which is fantastic. As someone who has spent most of his life studying and playing music, I know what a rewarding experience it can be.
I first became interested in studying and playing music because of one simple reason - it's fun. The fun and excitement of playing a song for the first time is an incredible experience that one likely will never forget. The benefits that musical study has on an individual, both young and old, are too many to list in full here. It provides a fun, relaxing hobby, it keeps the mind sharp, children who study music tend to do better in school, it can bring one out of a sad mood, it is a fun social activity....... the list goes on and on!
I've been formally studying music for over 20 years and teaching for over 5, but have learned at least just as much from teaching those five years as I have in those 20. I have learned a...

Hey! My name is Sheena and I have been teaching lessons for about 6 years. I went to St Cloud State University for 2 years for music education, with saxophone being my major instrument. Now I am currently a student at Mcnally Smith College of Music for my Bachelors in Guitar Performance. I have been playing guitar for about 10 years now and have played shows all around the Twin Cities area. I can also play quite a few other instruments.
I am experienced in recording, composing and producing and have been on a few different albums playing guitar.
I am experienced in the music field which I believe is important to be as a teacher. In my lessons it will be very laid back but productive at the same time. I will find a way of teaching that is best for the student and will help them achieve their goals of playing. Lessons will be fun and practicing will not feel like homework!

A love of music began in the third grade. I started on a silver metal clarinet and have not stopped playing. I am a musician, composer, arranger and performer. I hold a B.A. in music and have taught in the schools for 22 years. I bring extensive knowledge and humor to my teaching. I enjoy working with all age levels and pride myself on being intensely positive.
