I took piano from age 7 to 14 and got my Grade 4 RCM in theory and practical. I play up to a Grade 6 level practically on piano. I also sang in the Mpumalanga youth choir for 4 years in South Africa, where we performed 4- and 5-part harmonies on complex choral music, and the choir would often travel far and wide to perform. I played the timpani in high school band. Took a one-year course in Recording Arts and music production at Recording Arts Canada, after which I started making EDM albums (4 albums currently available on SoundCloud) and recording artists in self-made home studios in the GTA and Ottawa while at university. I taught drums and guitar at several music schools and also taught English using guitar while in classroom settings as an ESL teacher in Honduras (Central America). I also taught guitar one-on-one for several years at home and while travelling, teaching English in Central and South America. I play the kajon and also worship drumming in a band setting. With a lot of church music becoming more sophisticated, I have had to constantly stay up to date with new artists and styles you might find in church. I have played drums, guitar (electric and acoustic), bass, and piano with bands in all kinds of settings, touring to churches, playing outdoor gigs, and playing at open mike nights in the GTA. I&#39;m still active playing in churches right now and always keep on learning. I had to learn. My philosophy is to never stop learning and developing. Music can help heal and mend the heart if used right, and be an amazing way of self-expression!","image":"58d8535d-2de1-41e1-80b3-61e4d2dd9d5b.jpg","name":"Dewald J","styles":"All Styles","instruments":"Guitar/Ukulele/Digital Music Production/Theory & RCM Exam Preparation/Drums/Piano","levels":"Beginner, Intermediate","languages":"French, English, Spanish","DiffInMiles":9.006763022,"id":"51175","city":"Bowmanville","state":"Ontario","description":"Music has been a very large part of my life, with two parents involved in church music ministry.

For as long as I can remember there was a guitar in the corner and a piano in the dining room. My mother was a music teacher so it was no surprise when I followed in her footsteps. I&rsquo;ve organized youth band programs, directed choirs and have been teaching private guitar and piano lessons since 2014. Besides teaching, I&rsquo;ve also been the audio engineer for some really cool projects including bilingual animation videos for local hospitals, an advertisement for Telus and more! I&rsquo;ve recorded, mixed and mastered a lot of my own music in my home studio as well as other vocalists and bands. I strive to make my lessons engaging by finding ways to teach fundamentals in a way that also progresses the students personal goals. One way I find effective is to teach techniques through the songs they love. I&rsquo;ve been performing longer than I&rsquo;ve been teaching and have played multiple instruments for different bands and solo projects. For several years I also played all the English music for a local church. Song writing is also a great joy of mine that I would love to share with students.
