Flute Lessons in Kenilworth, IL

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet Piccolo Oboe English Horn

As I said earlier I tend to use the Rubank and Essential Element books in lessons. I start with seeing what the students goals are and making a goal sheet.

So that way the student is working toward their goal and having fun doing so. Read More
