About your music teacher

With over a decade of experience as a music educator - I'm Megan Wilde, a professional musician with a passion for nurturing talent across all levels. My students have gone on to sing on Broadway, work with producers for The X-Factor, work with Grammy Winners, and be admitted into the top universities for music. In my personal career - I've worked with 7 Grammy, Oscar, and Emmy winners on my upcoming album, I've won a Global Music Icon Award and an L.A. Music Critic Award. I've traveled across the world performing - and I've been featured in Tv/Films and movie theaters across the United States. As an instructor - I firmly believe in creating a sustainable life long passion in music by showing patience, giving clear directions, and being kind. Ive taught all ages and skill levels - I teach all genres outside of screamo.

Music lessons overview

Ever lesson is tailored the the students personalized goals. Every student gets a brand new, individually tailored weekly email with tips, advice, warm-ups, and additional resources to supplement their learning. For piano - we work out of a lesson book, and do handwritten theory exercises. I also utilize additional learning materials like flash cards and games. There is not one singular way that works for each student - some students are drawn to composition and we focus on that - and some have a talent for playing by ear. For singing - we pick one song per month to focus on that will help you grow in your particular goal (singing high notes, better articulations, breathing, etc) we carefully select daily vocal warm-ups.
