Private Lessons & Coaches in Waukegan, IL

Bio: Hi Lovelies! My name is TJ or Ms.A, as my students call me. I am excited to have you reading this, so read on! First and foremost, I am a Christian, which means I have extensive knowledge in church music, however, my experience does not stop there. I am a self-taught and classically trained musician with 13+ years of experience as a pianist, 12+ years as a singer, 6+ years as vocalist, 5+ years of worship leading, and 6+ years of songwriting and arranging, and 3+ year of music production. My skill-set includes playing piano and guitar, singing, songwriting, and music production. When it comes to genres, I can teach you just about anything from classical music, to pop, to CCM, to hymns, to gospel, and back around again. And if I am not familiar with something and/or comfortable playing something for whatever reason, I will let you know. And I extend the same to you. If you would want to play only church music, as that is what I am basing my curriculum off of, great! If not, let's talk about those song choices. I will only teach you songs that will help build you up as a musician but also a good human being, so no provocative, cursing, unwholesome songs will be taught or encouraged to play. I have to honor God in everything I do, so if that is a problem, let me know. Positive and encouraging is my motto! That being said, I am very passionate about music making, and would not one anyone to be held back for any reason from pursuing their dreams. So whether you wanna take on a new hobby, or become a well-rounded professional musician, I invite you to learn with and alongside me as we explore and build upon one of God's most beautiful gifts bestowed to mankind: music.
