Our music lesson students will have the opportunity to take lessons from the comfort of their own home or in one of the teachers studios. Careful attention is placed on each student to ensure a custom lesson plan. Our music teachers understand that every student has different needs and abilities and therefore the lessons will be planned with that knowledge in mind.
lessons are available in the following areas:
Instruments: Saxophone
I guide students in setting achievable goals and breaking down challenging passages into manageable steps. By learning how to practice effectively, students become more confident and develop the self-discipline needed for long-term musical growth. I frequently create my own lesson materials and customized lesson plans to better address the needs of my students. These may include adapted exercises, simplified arrangements, rhythm worksheets, or structured practice guides. Designing my own materials allows me to tailor lessons to each students level and musical interests while reinforcing specific technical and musical skills. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet
For students who are just starting out, I start with basic finger and breath support exercises. Once these become ingrained in the student's mind, I will introduce various excerpts based on their skill level, eventually working our way into solo repertoire. For students that have a few years under their belt, I prefer to get a grasp on what their strength and weaknesses are to assess what I can be of service, to select the solo or excerpt book that would best help improve their already developing talents.

When I teach, I always make sure that I present new concepts and ideas in a digestible way. I also make sure my student and I are always on the same page with their goals and their playing. If my students don't understand something or feel like they're in over their head, I don't rush them to figure it out. Backtracking is always seen as a positive thing. The most important part of my student's lessons is for them to learn how to teach themselves how to demonstrate the concepts I show them when they practice. Read More
