Trombone Lessons Loudoun County, VA

Instruments: Trombone

The love of music is one of the strongest passions in my life. I have been preforming professionally with the U.S. Fleet Marine Corps Music program for almost ten years. Through that program I have been able to perform in sixteen different countries for presidents, vice presidents, kings, queens, and prime ministers. These amazing opportunities I have been able to experience performing trombone the last few years would never have been possible with out the fantastic music teachers I have had along the way.

The first lesson I ever gave was my junior year of high school. It was to a younger student down the hill at the middle school. A trombone lesson. At that moment I knew I wanted to teach. But not just music. I try to teach lessons of life as well. How to better yourself, how to help others, how to make people happy or remorseful, laugh, cry, dance, sing! Read More

For beginning students I focus on getting them used to the first 5 most common notes on their instrument through both beginner methods and technical exercises. I can use whatever method they already have or I can recommend a method for us to study.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I have a dynamic, positive, and passionate teaching style. Each student is able to move at their own pace and focus on their specific needs. Students learn to set their own goals and find what practice strategies work for them. I am very quick to point out successes, even in the very small things. I also create space for students to be themselves and create a little bit. Creativity is one of the highest levels of understanding and it's also fun! Read More
