if you're still reading => YAY. now lets talk about my experience. I started music , theatre and art when i was very very young. I moved to different cities AND countries so i had the chance to be taught by very different perspectives and teachers that had nothing in common but music. All that time beside being humble to my teacher i would still take notes of what they did that I loved and what they did that I hated as a...

I am a math tutor with experience up to calculus. For the past 5 years, I have helped students with their study and organizational skills in addition to their subject matter. I have my bachelor of science in Managerial Economics from the University of California, Davis and I will be completing my master of arts in Christian Leadership from Hope International University during the summer of 2013. My goal is to not only help students with math but also encourage them to reach their aspirations, which is a key step to developing strong academic disciplines.

My large sunlit studio and teaching style are designed to make you or your child comfortable and lessons are designed to be supportive and helpful.

Through a wide variety of activities, I will provide you with the instruction and positive feedback you need to master the skills necessary for singing or playing the cello. You will also learn basic musicianship skills. From the beginning, I help you integrate your technical skills to create music.

Learning requires repeated rehearsal. During our lessons I will help you develop skills useful for assessing your at-home progress and giving yourself positive feedback. This will minimize your frustration by leading to immediate improvement.

I believe that every person has the ability to enjoy the profound experience of expressing themselves through music and I would take great joy in helping you learn the art of musical performance.

Biography

I fell in love with music as a child, playing great music in the cello...

I like to try to simplify things as much as possible. I go by Jon, and I have been tuned into music since sixth grade. I hopped around from instrument to instrument until finally settling on the trombone. Having had that experience, I was able to become a reasonably good trombonist in a fairly short amount of time. College proved to me that there isn't anything else I'd rather be doing than playing my instrument. I am currently still in school, however, I gig with local bands when the economy demands it. I have received a variety of performance-based scholarships, which have allowed me to continue my musical education and hopefully help you with yours too. I am currently a year away from my AA in Jazz Studies from American River Community College, but my hope is not that you think of me as a qualified degree keeper, but rather a qualified musician whose passion towards music is as contagious as smiles are with laughter. My goal is to teach my students how to express...

Steve began his musical journey on the piano as a child, later moving on to explore
clarinet and trumpet in band before discovering the French horn in high school.
Though he earned his bachelor of music in horn performance at CSU, Sacramento, he never gave
up the piano, teaching students and accompanying choirs throughout college, and
earning scholarships for both instruments.

Steve has played for a number of musical groups, from orchestras, chamber
groups and community bands to being a pit musician in musical theater and
opera. This year, he will be joining the William Jessup University Wind
Ensemble and playing horn in that group. For the last several years, Steve has
directed the orchestra at his church, and has also arranged hymns and worship music
for church orchestras and smaller ensembles.

Besides teaching piano and horn, Steve's musical interests include music theory, arranging, composition, piano ensemble playing and ethnomusicology.

I'm Esther, a very enthusiastic musician. I started out teaching myself piano and singing in a choir at the age of 9. I moved to the U.S. in 1992 and studied music for 10 years receiving my B.M. & M.A. in music at California State University of Sacramento. I studied and trained with Claudia Kitka & Jackie Victorino for voice and Kirsten Smith, Joan McDe, & Angel Mamn for piano. I have performed many solo concerts in the U.S. as well as South Korea.

I find a student's strengths and weaknesses using various ways to encourage each student. I am very patient, kind, flexible, and enthusiastic and I love working with children as much as adults. I strongly support basic skills: sight-reading, pitch and tone.

I have 26 years experience teaching kids and adults private piano and 6yrs voice coaching (early period to contemporary). I speak fluent Korean and English.

With seventeen years of piano teaching, I have great experience in performance and teaching methods. With contemporary and traditional methods ranging from kindergarten to adults, I am willing to make lessons fun, exciting, and enjoyable rather than just the monontous traditional practicing styles.

Music has always played a big part in my life since the third grade when I joined an after-school program for a recorder choir. I decided to start learning the violin a couple years later but never imagined as a child that it would lead me to keep pursuing a college degree in music. It was at the start of college where I realized the power of the music of Bach Beethoven, Wagner, Prokofiev - just to list a few names. Music gives a voice to emotions and colors, leaving a unique opportunity of interpretation to the discretion of the artist. Bringing the joy of music alone is always my main goal for any of my students, and giving people the opportunity to express themselves comes secondary but is equally as important. I am currently finishing up my Studies and Sacramento State University in Violin Performance with Ian Swensen, Composition with Dr. Stephen Blumberg, and Violin Pedagogy with Judy Bossuat-Gallic and Tim Stanley. I am a certified teacher under the Suzuki Association of the...

I am a natural teacher blessed with patience, empathy, understanding and enthusiasm. In fact my day job is teaching! I can help you overcome barriers in playing guitar such as getting a good sound, getting your hands to cooperate, reading music, and learning songs. I have 3 years experience in teaching private lessons, and I actively perform in Sacramento. I received my BA in Music from UC San Diego with an emphasis in Jazz Studies.

As a life-long singer and lover of music, Jenny looks forward to sharing her experience with you. She spent most of her high school and college years in music classrooms and on stages in concerts and numerous musical theatre productions, including Best of Broadway and other Sacramento-area theatres.

She has also been a private voice and piano teacher for more than 20...

I'm Lilli, I'm very passionate about music! I have been playing piano for roughly 18 years. I am classically trained but also enjoy jazz, rock, and contemporary as well. I can read music but also stress the importance of a great ear! I am very flexible with the student and his or her taste in music. I have studied music theory for two years, and have been teaching for roughly 3 years.

With more than 20 years of teaching experience for the cello, I have taught students of all ages, throughout California and overseas. I earned a Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree in Cello Performance and am currently the Principal cellist for the Camellia Symphony, California. In addition, I am teaching all levels of cello and beginner violin lessons to my students in Folsom, Napa and Sacramento.

My professional performing experience began in Medellin, Colombia in 1985 with the Medellin Philharmonic Orchestra where I was their Soloist beginning in 1992 and later on, as First Cello, from 1998-2002.

While in Colombia, I also performed with the Antioquia Symphonic Orchestra and the Antioquia Chamber Orchestra from 1991-1999.

I left my hometown of Medellin to come to the United States where I performed with the Texas Christian University Orchestra in Fort Worth, Texas in 2000. Returning to Medellin, I spent the next year with the Eafit Symphonic...
