Clarinet Lessons in Buffalo Creek, CO

Instruments: Clarinet

I taught a little in Idaho but really started teaching in earnest when I moved to Colorado. I've taught individuals from the young beginner to the older person looking to relearn a lost art. I have also adjudicated and taught masterclasses. I've found a passion for working with others that I didn't know that I had. I try to offer my students the tools that I wish I had had when I was just starting out, as well as the tools that will eventually render me obsolete. Read More

The first thing I do when teaching a student is to learn what musical goals and aspirations the student may have. Then, depending on age and experience, I build a custom program for the student, which may include using various books, resources, and even materials which I have created.

While in the AF, though, I've been blessed to have several part-time college teaching jobs. I taught saxophone, sax quartet and clarinet for five years at Adams State University in Colorado. For five of my six years in Illinois, I taught saxophone and sax quartet at McKendree University. I've always maintained a private studio of students ranging in age from 8 to 80+. I love teaching all skill levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced students all give me unique challenges as a teacher that I always welcome. Read More

I have also taught private lessons on various instruments and in voice since 2008.

I enjoy teaching and especially enjoy teaching music more than anything. Read More
