作業
每週 1-2 小時. Students should practice every week. It is recommended that students try to practice their instrument (or voice) 20-30 minutes a day. Some students MAY receive theory homework as well, depending on individual goals.評估
I will use informal assessments of progress as we go. Once a song or concept is mastered, we move on to the next. If the student is using Royal Conservatory of Music literature, we can prepare for real exams or mock exams to be done in class. Exams are not mandatory however!我們無法翻譯此文,請刷新頁面並再試一次。

This ongoing, once-a-week class is for students who want to learn piano, singing, music theory, or a combination of any of these three. I tailor my lessons to the individual, and I have taught many different types of music lessons. From beginners to early advanced, I have been helping students achieve their musical goals for over a decade. ***Get $10 off any one of my classes with coupon code CASEYX87LF10 until Sep 1, 2024!

If you do not see a time that works for you, reach out to me. I may have other availability during the week.** Piano: I use a method like Faber’s Piano Adventures or the Alfred Basic Series with beginners. I will meet intermediate / early advanced students where they are and we will go from there. I can prepare students for Royal Conservatory of Music exams, or we can just use the Celebration Series books in class without exams in the mix. These books include classical repertoire, studies, technique, and sight-reading/ear training. Students who want to learn their favorite songs from the radio, we can do that too provided you have already done some work in a method book and can read some music! Not sure? No problem, I am happy to consult on materials and goals. Singers: Musical theater, Broadway, Disney, popular music, and classical. We will discuss the student's interests, and they will be taught safe, effective vocal production, lyrics, diction, breathing, etc. I’ll teach warm-ups, repertoire, ear-training, and in some cases sight-singing. I can prep vocalists for Royal Conservatory of Music exams as well. Theory: Music theory is an important part of any music lesson and will generally be taught alongside piano or singing. However some students just wish to take a theory class as a standalone, and I’m happy oblige. Whether the student is prepping for a theory exam or just wants to learn the ins and outs of music-reading, I can provide tutoring in this subject. All that is needed is a theory workbook at the appropriate level, which I can recommend if needed. Piano/Vocal Combo: For experienced piano players who love to sing, I offer a combo lesson where I teach students to comp themselves! Here we will learn a different type of piano playing that is focused on building chords and chord progressions so that you can sing your favorite songs while playing chords as an accompaniment. Students will learn all about building chords on any given scale, chord qualities, chords in root position and their inversions, broken and blocked chords, how to read chord symbols, Roman Numerals, and lead sheets, how to transpose to a key that fits your voice, and we will practice coordinating the voice and piano. For combo lessons, students should have already had around 2 years of piano lessons and be at least 10 years of age. There is really no limit to what we can achieve in our music classes. The most important thing to me is that students are having fun and enjoying the process of learning music!
學習目標
Students' goals will depend on their age, level, and interests. We will discuss specific goals before our first class and evaluate them as we go. Most importantly, we want to have fun learning music.
其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
Parents are asked to look over all class materials and keep track of what students are singing or playing, particularly if the student is learning popular music. Song lyrics vary widely and so do parents' thresholds for what they are okay with their children singing and learning. I filter songs the best I can for language and content, but parental input is extremely valuable and necessary. If, at any point, you have a concern about any of the material, bring it to my attention so that we can adjust or use different material!
供應清單
A piano or keyboard is needed for piano or piano/vocal combo lessons.
Books will be needed for piano lessons in particular, and I can recommend those depending on the student's age and level. I can provide material for the first few classes if time is needed to order books. If the student already has books on hand, that's great!
Piano/Vocal combo and singing lessons may or may not need books, depending on the student. We can discuss. A music theory book is highly recommended.
Singers should have access to YouTube or have a way to play recorded music during their lessons so that we can listen to songs, piano accompaniments, and use backing/karaoke tracks as needed.
A pencil never hurts in case we need to take some notes!
