Clarinet Lessons Brazoria County, TX

Instruments: Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

After receiving my jazz performance degree from Rutgers University in 2010, I put together a studio of several dedicated students in New Jersey while performing in the New York Metro area with ensembles ranging from big bands to funk and soul groups. During that time, I also helped create several music education programs and camps in Red Bank and Asbury Park, and was instructed players of all skill levels, helping them improve their skills.

I enjoy teaching students of all skill levels and ages, and I employ different approaches depending on the needs and personal goals for each student. I am comfortable in many styles and can help with everything from preparing for honor band auditions, adult beginners desiring to learn a new instrument, jazz improvisation, rock, pop or solo repertoire. All students will learn the fundamentals of good tone production, technique, rhythm, articulation, intonation, and basic theory. Read More

I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn.

I'm always looking to bring on new students of all ages! Read More

Instruments: Clarinet

Each student is unique. They require their own method and pace of training. My hope is to help the student reach their goals while still enjoying their time practicing for it. The routine that works best for the student will prove itself over time depending on the student. It may be to work one way for one student but not so much for another student. Practice does get tiresome and so I like to provide many different ways to practice that will help keep sessions more engaged and eager to challenge ourselves. Read More
