Review by Rick
"I am really impressed with Chuck's ability to get right to the things I want to learn while still explaining the fundamentals. I'm a self-taught guitar pl
ayer (30 years) but I came to Chuck with no reading skills and no piano experience at all. He has been able to take what I know and show me how to apply it to learning theory, but within 3 lessons he also has me really excited about playing actual music that I'm into. Great learning studio and professional yet laid-back demeanor. Definitely plan on sticking with Chuck."

"Jon is a wonderful teacher! I have been playing violin all my life but never learned theory. I told Jon what I wanted to learn, and every week he has so
mething prepared that helps me learn just what I want. He is patient and encouraging. When I bring something in that I want to work on, not on his lesson plan, we spend time on that too. I am very pleased with my lessons with Jon. And he's nice, fun, and friendly."

"Geoff takes the time to make sure his students are really learning how to develop good habits when playing guitar and takes care to spend as much time as
it takes to solidify different techniques. He cares that his students are actually learning and doesn't cut corners, making sure things are easy to understand. He's patient, friendly, and skillful, and each lesson is something to look forward to."

About Bryan L.

About Bryan
Bryan is a lifelong student trained in both Contemporary and Classical methodology. Bryan's extensive education paired with his passion for music make him the perfect teacher for any student. Bryan's love for music started at a young age. He began taking private guitar lessons at the age of 10 learning the basics. This knowledge has served as the basis for all of his musical training as it provided a strong backbone of fundamental skills to build upon. Graduating from the University of Oregon in 2005, he practiced and perfected the classical approach to music. Bryan's education continued at the Musicians Institute based in the music capital of the world, Los Angeles. Here he diversified his music skills with vigorous training in the contemporary study of music. This contrast allows Bryan to teach everything from Rock n' Roll to Beethoven!
Bryan Specializes in the guitar and Bass Guitar; however, he is proficient in piano and drums as well. His interests range from simply perfecting the art of guitar playing, to composing modern music for entire bands. Additionally, Bryan's expertise extends into the technological side of recording and producing music. Thorough knowledge of popular computer programs allows Bryan to complete almost any music related task.
Bryan has been teaching private lessons for the past 10 years.
*** Lesson Details ***
I am an incredibly patient teacher with only one goal in mind: help the student progress steadily! For this reason, every students lessons will be different. However, a typical lesson will aim to improve on 4 basic categories... Guitar technique and dexterity, Music Theory / Improvisation, Learning students favorite Songs, and Personal projects. Personal projects can range from writing songs, to recording songs, or to learning the basics of other instruments.
As a lifetime musician I have a very good idea of what works for most students. However, my goal is to be YOUR teacher, and I will focus on whatever it is that interests you the most!
*** Studio Equipment ***
My studio is made up of high quality equipment. It currently includes electric guitars, Acoustic guitars, BASS Guitars, baritone guitars, a piano, Mac computers and a Professional PA system. There is also a ton of peripheral equipment including amplifiers, effects pedals, a Drum machine and stereo equipment.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can Provide Everything for Guitar players. I recommend an amplifier, tuner and a cable.
*** Specialties ***
I am particularly proficient in Rock Guitar and Music Theory. I specialize in songwriting as an application of Music Theory.

If you are looking for guitar lessons then Bryan is your guy. I have been taking lessons from him for 6 months now and had no experience prior. I have learned a lot from him and not just about playing a guitar but music in general. I highly recommend Bryan.

About Kris S.

About Kris
My name is Kris, and I have a lot of experience in many areas of music.
In my lessons I emphasize creativity because this approach helps students develop a more complete understanding of music. I will help you build a strong foundation in technique and improvisational skills so that you can see real, measurable progress in your playing and your confidence level.
Ultimately, while my students do learn to perform specific pieces of music, they also learn how to sit down at a piano and simply play, expressing themselves through music in a natural way that lends itself to playing with other musicians, or for song writing.
Lessons can be given from the Melody in Movement Studios at 811 SE Main St, 97202, part of Active Space LLC.
You can learn more about me and hear music I've been apart of at krispianolessons.wordpress.com

About Adam
Hello! My name is Adam and I'm so happy to be a part of this community! I've moved here from the east coast where I was a teacher and co-director for music programs at a K-8 music school for 6 years. Currently, I'm a director for a music program in North Portland. During my almost two decades of teaching around the world, I've come across many students of all ages with various levels. Many have won competitions and have participated in regional bands. I’ve graduated with honors from New England Conservatory of Music with a Masters in flute performance. I’ve studied in Switzerland with James Galway and in London with William Bennett, and in the USA with Tara O’Connor and Paula Robison. While living in Germany, I studied at the Hochschule fur Musik und Darstellende in Frankfurt with Thaddeus Watson. With my verse background in performi
ng and music education, I’ve found unique and fun ways to teach students and have them exceed in any of their endeavors.

About Robin
Hey Students, my name is Robin Gordon Jr, and I have a passion for helping students excel in music. I've been teaching voice and piano for over 18 years, and I have a great respect for the truth in learning. I'm a big believer in using truth devices such as the recording device to let you know exactly what you sound like, the chromatic tuner, to show you exactly how close you are to singing in tune, the metronome to show you how close you are to singing with perfect rhythm and timing and the video camera to show you exactly how you're coming across to the audience. Don't be one of those people who show up on american Idol, where their entire family and friends told them they could sing, only to get a large dose of reality when they meet the judges! I'll make sure that person is never you.
Every lesson plan I create is unique dependin
Every lesson plan I create is unique dependin
g on where my students are at this moment and where they want to go. I lay out a path for getting you there, that wastes no time, and is tailored to fit you.
Here are just a couple testimonials:
I could write a novel about how Robin has changed my life. I started working with him when I was 12 years, and he forever altered the way I view and approach music. He showed me how to not just be the best technical singer I could be, but how to feel the music with every part of my being. He showed me how to be an artist. There is no one I would recommend more for piano, voice, and any type of music lesson. His incredibly supportive and non-judgmental nature was the perfect environment for me to thrive. His discipline, and teaching technique made music approachable, and inspired me to dig deeper into my potential. He became not just one of my favorite teachers and mentors but one of my dearest friends! I promise working with Robin will be a truly transformative experience for you! Moorea M.
My daughter had stopped practicing piano until we met Pastor Gordon. With his positivism and enthusiasm, he helped my daughter get back into music as well as loving piano and singing. I couldn’t believe how fast my daughter learned how to listen to music and play it back just by ear…. this, thanks to the amazing talent that Pastor Gordon has. I love how he makes music and learning such and easy and fun process. Thank you, for being part of our lives and for being such an amazing teacher and mentor. We love you. Judith C.
