Class Experience

US Grade 3
In this class I will develop and work toward goals tailored to the student's skill level, learning style, and musical interests.  All students will receive a strong fundamental piano core education, including but not limited to:
-Note Names
-Proper Posture
-Finger Strength and Agility
-Music Reading
-Improvisation
-Rhythm and Counting
-Singing and Playing
-Basic Music Theory
-Ear Training

In addition, depending on the student, we may cover topics such as:
-Composition
-Singing and Playing full Songs (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Beatles, you name it....)
-Jazz improv
-Classical Music
-Music History (any genre/era)
-Musical Theater
-Video Game Music
-Scoring Film/TV
-Advanced Music Theory
-Applying Piano Knowledge to Other Instruments
-MANY MORE!!!

Students can begin this class with no experience at all on the instrument or years of instruction.  The only required materials initially are a keyboard or piano, but I will recommend a piano book after the first lesson or two.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Massachusetts Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Master's Degree from Adams State University
Hello!  I'm Matt Spitz and I teach music lessons on piano, guitar, drums, and bass for all ages. I'm also knowledgeable and experienced with musical topics such as music theory, rock music history, classical music history, music reading, composition, group playing, improvisation, arranging, Garageband, Logic Pro, and more.

My personal musical education began at age seven when I started drum lessons, later studying guitar, bass, and piano as well as playing in groups. I earned my Bachelor of the Arts in Music from Brown University in 2008 and have been teaching music and coaching ensembles ever since, working with hundreds of students to improve their skills and boost their confidence. In this same time, I've toured and recorded with my band the Van Burens, playing shows across the country and producing three records.  My teaching is informed by a lifetime of creativity, collaboration, diligent practice, and live performance, as well as the thousands of hours engaging with students.

My goal is to nurture a welcoming, fun environment in which the student can discover and pursue their musical passion, developing their personal musical voice. I tailor each lesson to the individual student's interest and skill level, touching on the fundamentals of each instrument as well as learning the music of the artist/genre the student prefers. Some students have chosen to study multiple instruments with me weekly, and I encourage a well-rounded, holistic musical education.
