Saxophone Lessons Rutherford County, TN

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

I'm a music lover and love to spread the musical knowledge to others. I graduated from the University of Mississippi in 2007 with a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education where I primarily studied the Clarinet. My very first instrument I played was the Piano, and I started at the age of 8. I primarily perform in church now. Read More

For young students, I start them in beginner books while singing fun songs that motivate them. For older students I pick method books more specific to their age, learning style, and progress while still focusing on key points of interest for the student. After any student gets through some of the basic method books, I switch to Berklee College of Music method books. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone

I began teaching private lessons in my second year of college, and have maintained a studio ever since! What I enjoy most about my teaching is seeing a passion for the saxophone and music arise and blossom. I use multiple activities in each lesson to keep my instruction fresh, fun, and engaging. I happily facilitate performing opportunities for eager students, including school festivals, church services and activities, nursing homes, and other public venues. Read More

I have seen my students achieve success at all levels, from being a beginner to winning a college scholarship to the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music! I have taught pre-K through adult instrumental and vocal music. I have taught Jr. High and High School Band. I presently am teaching in Gibson County as a part time public school music teacher since I retired from full time service over 2 years ago. (I just couldn't stay away from it!) Since I started there, I have also been hired by the high school band to be one of their brass instructors. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Saxophone, Synthesizer, Keyboard

I love watching my students develop a love of playing music. It's so much fun to learn to play and perform. I encourage hard work and preparation for recitals and concerts. I teach students how to teach themselves by use of recording themselves and to learn how to ask themselves questions and observations to make maximum progress. I personalize my lessons to the goals of the students. If a student wants to learn the "Star Wars Theme", then we work on that as well as working through their lesson books. Read More
