Private instruction (tutoring) lets me tailor the course to match the goals, interests, and learning pace of the individual student.
I strive to maintain the student’s motivation to learn by providing this personalized instruction in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.
I offer 30 years worth of time-tested techniques and hundreds of pages of unique studies to help the student quickly acquire the knowledge and skills needed to play piano, guitar, bass guitar, clarinet or saxophone.
I have also developed my own music theory course that can be taught by itself or in addition to your instrument study. Creating an understandable and practical music theory course for beginning musicians through professional musicians has been a passion of mine for over 20 years.
Here is what Brandy Valdez from Newport Beach says about my instruction:
My husband and three children have all studied music with Mark. His versatility of being able to teach several instruments is a big plus. I highly recommend him!
Here is what Ron Welty (drummer for The Offspring, 1987 - 2002) has said about my personalized instruction:
Mark's music theory course and guitar studies helped me develop a style for my new band Steady Ground.
Here is what Virginia Warren, a professor at Chapman University, has said about my music instruction:
I can't imagine a better, more positive introduction to piano than Mark James gave my daughter. He taught her quickly so she played real music almost from the beginning, instead of tedious scales. Mark taught her music theory along with a wide variety of musical genres, letting my daughter's interests guide what she studied. When she eventually took up guitar, he made the transition effortlessly.
