My teaching style varies from student to student based on playing level, musical interests, and personality. I use a mix of method books and aural learning techniques. The student's musical priorities always come first!
I have been playing music my whole life. I began playing piano at six years old, saxophone at ten, bass guitar at thirteen, and guitar at fourteen. Throughout my high school career I played a variety of rock band gigs on guitar, bass, and keyboards; I also played a variety of jazz gigs on saxophone. Currently I am a music student at William Paterson University, and am graduating this May with a degree in Jazz Saxophone Performance.

More About This Tutor...

Mike's Guitar Studio is based on the belief that the students needs are of the utmost importance. The Studio is committed to meeting those needs. As a result, a high percentage of our business is from repeat customers and referrals. Lessons are catered towards what the student wants to learn. There is no one method that works for each student. Each student has different ways of learning, we recognize this and apply it to our teaching policy. The Lessons should be a fun and positive experience as the student progresses on his or her instrument. The primary instructor/ owner, Mike Benninger, has a B.M. in music performance from Keene State College and a M.M. in music performance from the Yale School of Music. Mike's Guitar Studio is located in New Windsor in Mike's Home Recording/Music studio. Recording can be an added tool for recording lessons, songs, pieces, and ideas.

Piano is one of my top subjects! I have been teaching Keyboard & Piano For 12 Years.

I love kids & am a young mother who relates well & is sensitive to other young musician's needs. I have many long standing piano clients. In my music class you not only learn all of the essentials in music & song writing but you also learn how to how to have fun with music. I have a laid back "learn at your own pace" approach in my piano class & I teach everything from Rock to Classical. For beginner students who are children 7 years of age or younger I like to use Bastein Piano for the Young Beginner: Primer A. For beginner children 8 years of age or older I like to use Bastien Piano Basics Primer Level. For Beginner adult students I like to use Bastein Adult Piano Book One. With these method books I begin students on major scales & chords once they have mastered the few first pages of their books.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching, and specifically teaching music, has been my passion for years. While tutoring, I use a wide variety of methods, including metaphors, diagrams- whatever the student requires to learn the material. I am exceptionally patient with struggling students, because I know that losing patience solves nothing, and given the right materials and knowledge, the student will succeed. I believe very strongly in the potential of people to do exceptionally well, even when they may not realize that they are capable. Students will find me to be friendly, knowledgeable, and when the situation calls for it, very intense in my desire to educate. I wish to help people find their own musical potential.
Although I have only held my BM in Music Education for a little over a year, I have always sought out opportunities to hone my skills as a teacher. While I was still earning that degree, I w ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe it is the responsibility of a teacher is not only to present the material in a clear and organized way but also to show excitement and love for the subject. Enthusiasm is contagious; students will be excited about learning a particular subject if their teacher is eager and excited about teaching it. Part of teaching is to convince the students that the material is not only knowable, but also worth knowing. I believe all students can succeed under the right circumstances. The responsibility of a good educator is to find what motivates his students. No single method of teaching works for every student, so it is very important that the teacher knows each student well and is able to use the approach which works for that student.

I have worked with students of different age groups as well as different ability levels. I am fair, knowledgeable and determined to make sure that the child can achieve his/her full potential.

I believe that I have helped many students in my teaching career and I would like to continue to do the same.
