Dillon Vado's School Of Music

Students can take lessons on a primary instrument (drums, vibraphone, marimba, or general percussion) but all can learn about ear training, and musicianship.
Most drum teachers don't also teach mallet percussion.
I am an active performing musician, and share my tips and experiences from the real world as an experienced musician.
I hold a Bachelor's of Music in Jazz Studies from the California Jazz Conservatory in Berkeley. I won first place in the "Jazz Search West" soloist competition in 2014. I have earned several other awards and acknowledgements for my playing and composing over the years.

Amazing Accordion
8 Reviews
In my teaching, I try to integrate the world of music in it's various dialects into your instrument or area of music study. I don't practice music from the perscpective of ego, I treat it as a practice, in the broadest sense of the term. The day to day work of playing an isntrument is about identifying (or even seeking out!) issues and solving them. It's as much about HOW you practice as it is about HOW MUCH. Anyone who learns the correct practicing techniques can increase the speet at which they improve.

Dean Curtis Music Studio

One important service I provide is my students' eligibility to participate in the annual state music exam administered by the Music Teachers' Association of California (MTAC). This gives valuable structure and goal-setting and is an enjoyable and confidence-building experience for children.
It is said that my special quality is an ability to relate to and communicate with students as individuals, perceiving and responding to each one's unique gifts and challenges. I teach children and adults, beginners to advanced. I have extensive experience working with gifted children, but also have had good success with students of average musical talent.

My philosophy of teaching piano and music is an integrated, individualistic approach. My responsibility as a teacher is to tap into the enthusiasm of the student - what excites them and captivates them about music and nurture that curiosity. While covering the spectrum of theory, technique, and depth of sounds - it is also important to keep it fresh with innovative approaches to learning different concepts and I achieve this using many different ways honed over the years. 'Practice' has become a loaded word with learning music and I encourage individuals to be self-motivated from their own desire to learn and reap the benefits of what 'practi

Olga's Voice Lessons

Even after starting my professional singing career I kept studying with best voice teachers and coaches in Russia, United States and Italy. My professional experience thought me to understand nature of humane voice, treat it with respect and care. Every student is different, there is no single teaching method effective for everybody. We all have one goal but everybody has to take his own road to achieve this goal. And my goal is to help student to find the best road.

I combine a background in science with a background in music. Although everyone can sing, understanding how your voice works will make developing your own beautiful unique sound both quicker and easier.
I have published a book which is used by choruses, voice teachers and singers which is fun and also very informative. Each page is packed with lots of understandable information.
My job as a teacher is to help each student find their own most beautiful, healthy sound, and have fun doing it!
I do not have a website for singing as I have been teaching for many years and students come to me through word of mouth, primarily.
