Flute Lessons Multnomah County, OR

Instruments: Flute

I love to push my students to become the best they can in a healthy and positive way! There's nothing worse than spending money on a teacher who only does the bare minimum. I always make sure I give the right amount of work each week to my students to stay busy and to grow on their instrument. I love when there's a deadline or performance date they need to have a piece(s) ready by so I can incorporate other technical things in there that makes everything tie together! Read More

My methods vary on the student and subject. Beginning students will typically focus more on technical pieces of music to improve on certain aspects of a few pieces to perform. More advanced students will still practice technical parts of their music, but less time will be spent on it during a lesson. Advanced level students will spend more time on repertoire and performance. The more advanced a student gets, the more I expect them to practice outside of lessons and apply their newly learned technical skills into their music on their own. Read More

Lessons are broken up into two parts: Technique and repertoire. It's important to build up proper technique to prevent injury and to refine skill. I like students to work on three pieces at a time (It sounds scary, but is totally manageable.) If I feel the student can handle more music, I will adjust. The first piece is at the student's skill level. This is so the student can accomplish the task at hand relatively quickly without a lot of wood shedding. Read More

Music has gifted me with a second chance at life, and I feel that it is my duty to share this gift with the world so that it may change and embellish the lives of others. I believe in the individual and the vast assortment of personalities and skill-sets that they bring to the table. Just like musics ability to enhance our way of thinking, I strongly believe that as musicians, we all have something to gain from others, no matter what their skill level is. Read More
