About Jillian V.
Close
I picked up the guitar over ten years ago to accompany myself while I sang. Having developed some skills, I can now offer my students the basics of guitar so that, in a pressure-free and supportive environment, they can truly get going. Once my students are comfortable playing chord progressions, simple songs, simple rhythmic patterns, and fingerpicking styles, I offer techniques so they can learn even more material at home. If a student outgrows me and wants to move into advanced classical guitar performance or jazz guitar, I refer them to one of my very good professional guitarist friends. It's all about the journey.

tting.
As a voice teacher, I want to help my students settle comfortably into their own musicality by showing them the building blocks of a solid technique, drawing particularly from the things that helped me grow as a vocalist. I want my students to feel strong in their body, comfortable and relaxed in their breath, and confident in their performance.
I am a professional vocalist in NYC. I perform liturgical and classical music, as well as musical theater repertoire. I participate in professional operas, choral groups and other concert series, as well as professional theater work. Performing gives me a sense of bliss and completeness that is indescribable.
As a certified yoga instructor, I teach in many locations throughout NYC. I was trained at Yoga Haven in Scarsdale, New York with Betsy Kase, and earned a 200-hour certificate in Asana, Pranayama, and Meditation. I went on to complete advanced trainings and now specialize in restorative yoga, prenatal yoga, yin yoga and therapeutics. I offer private yoga instruction and meditation at my home studio, and on occasion in my clients’ homes. My studio comes fully equipped with all yoga props, aromatherapy, and music. Hands-on-assists and personalized sequencing to deepen your experience.
It is a joy to offer Reiki to curious, open clients in need of energy healing. Reiki is a noninvasive energy healing technique totally separate of any religious affiliation and available to anyone. It is a difficult to describe the relaxing, soothing, and deep-healing effects of Reiki to someone who has never experienced.
Please feel free to inquire about any of my services!

About Rebecca
I have 50 years of teaching experience, from beginners to advanced students. I also teach the people no one else thinks are teachable because I work with people from where they are and find their best learning styles. Several of my students are now professional musicians, but that's not everyone's course. I teach every age range from 3-83 and everything from classical to country-western. And I teach every orchestral and band instrument, and guitar, bass, and drum kit and some instruments you've never heard of. I also teach voice, pop, rock, opera, doesn't matter to me.
*** Lesson Details ***
Important Note: I will no longer take new students that want lessons every other week, beginning Nov 1. Inconsistent lessons, especially with younger students, allows them to forget too much between sessions.
What I teach is transferable

About Matthew S.

I taught beginning guitar through a local shop while in college. I have a strong background in reading music notation, and prefer to teach classically. We begin chord development at the intermediate level when students can read the chord in music notation. Finger style and jazz are personal favorites of style.
About Matthew
Hi, I am Matt. I am a band director in the Fort Smith, AR area. I am in my 7th year teaching band and love every minute of it. I have recently decided to return to teaching private lessons, and would love to help you with your auditions, festival music, AP music theory exams, or just learn some skills on becoming a better musician. Outside of the audition music, we continually work tone production, range, and confidence on any brass instrument. In college I had a small guitar studio as well. Some of those guitar students have gone on to study at the collegiate level and gig around town today! I am comfortable teaching at all levels, but my expertise is centered around student development at the middle school to high school level.

I play 18 different stringed instruments! I have been playing guitar since I was 9. I have been teaching private music lessons at a music studio since I was 18. I am a singer/songwriter/entertainer. I am very patient. I have a Masters degree in Special Education. I was in a car accident in 2008 and I was told I would never use my right hand again - and I proved the doctors and therapists wrong by using music instruments as my own form of physical therapy - you would never know by the way I play that I have had every finger in my right hand broken and I have plates and screws in my wrist. I can PLAY and TEACH - Guitar, 5-String Banjo, Dobro, Mandolin, Ukulele, Bouzouki, Violin, Viola, Cello, Tenor Banjo, Banjolin, Mountain Dulcimer, Bass, Banjolele, Autoharp, Hammer Dulcimer, Dulcimette, Banjitar.

About Evan B.

I love to learn new songs and can help teach you how to learn just by listening! I've been playing for over 10 years, and in the last 2 years have started to write my own music. If you're interested in eventually writing your own stuff, I can teach you basic music theory as well as how to put out original content! I personally listen to all kinds of music, ranging from rock, acoustic, folk, blues, and even metal. Learn with me and I can teach you your favorite songs!
About Evan
I'm a guitar player, singer, songwriter from Connecticut who moved to Michigan for my wife's schooling purposes. I've been in multiple bands over the years, but am now resigned to playing guitar and singing for my church on Sundays. I've been playing guitar for over 10 years and have just recently begun writing my own music!
My favorite way to learn new music myself is to learn new songs! Back when I first started, my first guitar teacher was able to learn songs by simply listening to them, and I didn't believe I'd ever be able to do this. But now that I can, I hope to teach new guitar players how to do the same!
I'm excited for the opportunity to share the gift of music with others. I remember how hard learning the guitar was, and nearly stopped until my father talked me out of giving up. The key to sticking with it is getting to the

I'm excited for the opportunity to share the gift of music with others. I remember how hard learning the guitar was, and nearly stopped until my father talked me out of giving up. The key to sticking with it is getting to the
point where you can play a favorite song of yours. That's when the fun begins! It would be my joy to get you there!
When I'm not jamming, I love hiking, reading, writing, and going on coffee dates with my wife. Hope to meet y'all soon!

About Jesse S.
Close
Creating the sound you want comes from playing music with others, and playing other people's music. Together, we can learn whatever you like. And then we can record our sessions and upload them to the social media platform of your choice. I have a recording device for most every occasion. I play guitar, bass, and some percussion. And depending on what you would like to do, I will accompany you in a performance as well as help you to grow your abilities.
About Jesse
Everyone has what it takes to be great. Everyone I play music with brings character, personality, and feeling to our sessions. From the weekend warrior to the recording artist, playing is an expression of the part of you few can see. But when it hits us, we feel it. Playing guitar inspires me to be fearless, and I love that part the most.

Review by John
"We've briefly tried guitar instructions at a studio and in my home and weren't really happy with either. Decided to give it another go and were very lucky
to find Rebecca.
My 10 year old grandson is learning to play an electric guitar whereas I favor the acoustic. Instead of doing 2 separate half hour lessons, Rebecca let us combine them into a single hour that we take together. Doing the lessons together makes it easy to see how Rebecca makes adjustments to each person's abilities and instrument. A number of the songs in the music book are made for 3 separate guitars, which makes it more enjoyable/interesting as each one of us (including Rebecca) take turns playing a different guitar's section at the same time.
A real down to earth individual that is both joyful and serious. I keep coming up with questions regarding music and playing the guitar. Whether its part of the lesson or not; she is always provides me with an answer that is easy to understand.
I would highly recommend Rebecca as an instructor."
