About Carl

As an adept Private Music Instructor, I have a well-rounded background in lesson planning and refined talents in audition prep and musical theory, which make me an ideal fit for the Private Music Instructor position. Additionally, I am a proven expert in customer service and a consistent collaborator. My previous roles have strengthened my abilities in collaboration and innovation, including a focused attention to detail and accuracy. I am a compassionate, dependable, highly motivated Private Music Instructor with solid foundation, and expertise in classical style of music, and experience in playing clarinet for 44 years, oboe for 30 years, and bassoon for 27 years. I offer exemplary customer service skills and ability to design engaging lessons to promote lasting practice habits. I am approachable and patient. I offer 5+ years of teaching experience in both instrumental and vocal music in the church setting, and in the private instruction settings, and am known for motivating students to achieve their full potential and develop a lifelong passion for music.

I absolutely love performing, teaching, as well as inspiring students to reach their full potential on the instruments of clarinet, bass clarinet, oboe, english horn, and bassoon, and helping them develop a true sense of musicianship. My focus is to have my students develop beautiful tone quality, use of proper embouchure, to strive for achievement and perfection of the melodic and technical interpretation of music, performing/playing with passion, and teaching proper care and maintenance of the instrument. My philosophy of teaching is that all students are unique and need a stimulating educational environment where they can grow physically, mentally, and socially. I will assist my students to express themselves and accept themselves for who they are, as well as embrance the differences in others. I will also provide a safe environment where students are encouraged to share their ideas, and to take risks.

I started off working as a volunteer church worship choir and orchestra director back in 1992 and continued this position until 1996, and then eventually began teaching private music lessons part-time to students of clarinet, bass clarinet, oboe, English horn, and bassoon at Ken Stanton Music in 2018. I have also worked as a Speech-Language Pathologist for the past 25 years, teaching children and adults how to develop, improve, and enhance their communication skills.

Working with a middle school clarinetist, a middle school bass clarinetist, and a high school bassoonist, and seeing two of these students audition for, and make District Honor’s Band, and one of these students audition for, and make All-State Band in the state of Georgia.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
·         Am I really practicing my assigned music enough so that I am seeing a dramatic improvement in my playing ability between lessons?

·         Am I using a metronome and tuner during my practice sessions?

·         Am I practicing my difficult passages of music at a tempo that is slow enough to prevent me from making any mistakes, and gradually increasing the speed of the tempo as I progress?

·         Can I play this difficult passage of music well at a fast rate of speed if I can’t even play it accurately and consistently at a slower rate of speed?

·         If I am constantly canceling my lessons, or arriving late to my lessons, am I truly making progress, or getting my money’s worth?

·         If I cancel my lesson without giving my teacher at least a 24 hour notice in advance, is that fair to the teacher who could have filled my spot with a student who would have been there for a lesson?

Mr. Deal is an incredibly knowledgable instructor and very patient with my son who is just finishing up his 2nd year with the middle school band. He would not be nearly as confident with the clarinet if it were not for the weekly sessions with his teacher. Mr. Deal presents meticulous notes as a followup to each lesson, and takes his time during the session (and many times on his "off hours") to explain thoroughly to Joseph what is required to improve on his playing. For example, when Joseph was struggling on a particular piece, Mr. Deal took the time to make a video to demonstrate step by step how to accomplish this piece.
Whether in person or virtually, he has made all the difference in the world and Joseph looks forward to every meeting. Thank you, Mr. Deal!
