Although This Page Is Called About Me
Steve’s Kwikstep Music is really ABOUT YOU. I have been teaching private lessons for more than 30 years. Over the years I have been often AMAZED at what people can achieve musically! I have had great success with young and older people regardless of what their interests and styles are.
In the summer of 1982 I began teaching guitar. I then attended Five Towns College and Berklee College of Music on a full tuition scholarship. I teach Guitar, Bass and Piano private lessons.
As a student of music for many years there were a number of issues that I felt were less than effective. An important one was the teacher failing to interest the student. In other words not teaching specific songs that could possibly interest the student. However this is not always possible depending on the level of the student and music selected. To motivate a student with specific songs and styles is a goal at the very first lesson. After the first lesson I ask a student to make a list of 10 or more songs that interest them. It’s the teacher’s job to INSPIRE the student.
Steve’s Kwikstep Music
My Kwikstep Music Method incorporates a positive atmosphere while achieving unbelievably fast results. Music reading, theory and technique are all and important part of the program. In addition I’ve had great results along side school music programs of any level.
I’ve also have had great success with people, particularly children with autism, dyslexia and other mental conditions. People with physical injuries have also responded amazingly well to my Kwikstep Method. Including injuries like broken bones and tendon disabilities. I even had a student who lost one of his fingers.
I’m continually looking to challenge and expand my Kwikstep Method in the most difficult situations. If music speaks to you in a powerful way allow me to broaden the dialog. Any level. Any style. The Secret is YOU and your unique connection to music. All I need is your instrument and you to make a difference. It’s all about your unique musical journey. It’s not just About Steve. The SECRET IS YOU!!! Visit Steve’s Instagram page.
