Flute Lessons in Clearwater Beach, FL

Instruments: Violin Cello Flute

My approach to teaching varies with the age level of each student. With younger students, imitation is often one of the best methods of learning and I prefer the Suzuki method for students up to age 8, especially with strings. For older children and adults, learning music notation and basic music theory for a full understanding of musical language are more important to get them to the level where they can learn any music that they want to play for fun.

These activities build self-confidence, help students to develop a sense of accomplishment and measure their progress. Read More
