Online, December 23, 2011 (Newswire.com) - TakeLessons (http://takelessons.com), the nation's fastest growing private music lessons provider, is proud to announce the addition of Steve R. to the TakeLessons family of music teachers. Based in Gallatin, TN, Steve will teach bass guitar, guitar and piano to students of all ages and levels, and is expected to be an excellent addition to the team.

"I tailor my teaching method to each individual student and strive to 'strike a chord' and develop a lifelong passion and love for music," said new teacher Steve. "Utilizing both traditional and contemporary teaching methods, I put a strong emphasis on theory, both general and pertaining to the specific instrument and its function."

In addition to teaching the various instruments, Steve will be able to pass on his knowledge in music theory, harmony, composition, improvisation, band and ensemble, orchestration, digital recording techniques, and various computer software applications.

"I try to have them playing songs as quickly as possible," said Steve, "to get the students immediately feeling good about their progress."
