Clarinet Lessons Pottawattamie County, IA

Instruments: Piano, Clarinet, Music

I am willing to teach out of any books my students bring to me! However, I usually start wind students with the Standard of Excellence books, since that is what local elementary schools use. Younger piano students start in the "My First Piano" series of books, then graduate to the Piano Adventures series of books. This set includes lesson books, performance books, and theory books, and can take students from a young beginner level to junior high/high school advanced playing. Read More

My teaching style is positive, encouraging, demonstrative, and (I may have mentioned it before) FUN! Every teacher is looking for the "light bulb" moment. The moment the content really clicks with a student. It always turns on at different moments with each student. I love encouraging my students to never give up. I know what it is like to have a teacher who doesn't care about their student. That will never be the case for me! Read More
