Flute Lessons Dane County, WI

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo, Music

For young, beginning students, I usually work from the Hal Leanard's Essential Elements mixed with separate, individualized exercises, usually intended for regular practice warm-ups. For students that have grasped the fundamentals, we will explore solo repertoire and etudes that are not only appropriate for their skill level but also interesting and fun to play. For advanced students, I will often create custom lesson plans and materials that suit that student's wants and needs. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Flute, Piccolo

For beginning musicians, I like to start with the very fundamentals of music theory in order to get them comfortable with reading music and understanding what they are doing. Books I have used in the past include the Essential Elements series and the Melodious and Progressive Etude series. I also understand the importance of enjoying what one is playing, so I always urge students find pieces or books for themselves that they are interested in, and incorporate them into my lessons.

It is a great joy to see students excel and expand as they take what they have learned into their own lives!
