Bill Keis Music Lessons
3 Reviews
In the 1st lesson, I always ask the student what their goals are, what kind of music they want to play, what problems they have, etc. Then I test them on basic skills to find ‘holes’ in their knowledge/skills to find the right level to start. I have an uncanny ability to discover their main problem areas and/or misunderstood terminology and get to work right away handling them. It's rewarding to see students very quickly begin to brighten up as they clear away years of confusion and musical barriers. I’ve met many seasoned pros who have holes in their knowledge or skill that have prevented them from reaching the

Ivan Dantas - Violinist And Composer
2 Reviews
--- At this moment I'm not taking new students in Los Angeles, I'm only accepting Skype students due to a job position in Brazil that forces me to travel often. Music theory and violin lessons work great on skype and it cost less, since the teacher does not have to travel to your house.---
--They are not good only for someone who is completely new to the violin, since in the very beginning it is fundamental to be able to correct posture. If that's your case I can recomend a good violin teacher in the Los Angeles area. ---
I was seven years old when I had my first contact with the violin. A violin teacher, who was offering lessons after school

Sing what you play and play from the heart.

Leon Thomasian Piano Lessons
1 Review
During the last ten years of teaching, I have encountered many different types of students at a wide range of ages (4 to 65+ years old). Throughout my teaching experience, I have learned to adapt to my students before I make them adapt to me. That way, the students felt more comfortable and were more encouraged to learn and succeed.
At this point in my life, teaching became something natural rather than a planned process. Nevertheless, I plan my lessons according to the students’ needs. Even though I started learning music at an early age, I believe that it is never too late to learn since music is one of the most beautiful languages a

Chadash's Piano Lessons
Music has basically propelled me through life. I was born a small town in Turkey and started playing the piano at eleven years old. At sixteen I was accepted into the Vienna Conservatory in Vienna, Austria. Living in Europe during the formative years of my life expanded my horizons in all directions including cultural, personal, and musical.
Finding my way in the world has given me a unique prospective on teaching music. I treat each student as if they are on a personal journey, understanding that everyone approaches the world of music on their own terms. With that being said, I appreciate that a student’s promise has to be grounded in the
