I also might bring in a mixture of exercises from the Trevor Wye book and my etude books, depending on the level of advancement. In addition to the methods books and etude books, I will work with my students to select a piece of solo repertoire that is within their playing ability.

I should start off by saying each student is unique, and since the lessons are one on one, my approach to each student will be unique.

How do you form a proper embouchure and produce a supported airstream? Read More

I teach half hour lessons and instruct the student on good reading habits, how to practice and perform, encouraging them to bring in any supplemental music they are working on at school or on the internet.

As a music teacher, I am passionate about giving people of all ages the tools for self-expression and collaboration. I am a performer, flautist and singer-songwriter based in Philadelphia and I have been an active member of the music community for over a decade. With a background in poetry and creative writing, my compositions combine storytelling and collage, and draw from my roots in folk music and RB. I have performed at music festivals such as South X Southwest, Firefly, XPoNential Music Festival, and I have opened for legendary acts such as Questlove and Talib Kweli. Read More

And in that collaborative effort, after a realistic goal is discussed and set, I would greatly encourage students sticking to and carrying out their goals. Read More
