Flute Lessons in Old Westbury, NY

These experiences helped me fall in love with teaching again! I have helped a young student succeed in his audition for LaGuardia High School in NYC. This past year I taught a very motivated girl who was applying to college music programs, and did not have a private teacher before me. I was and will never stop being proud of her amazing accomplishment of being accepted to every program she applied and auditioned for! Read More

I start beginners off with the Rubank Elementary Method, which introduces reading, scales, arpeggios, and expressive devices such as dynamics and articulation. I also like students to start with improvisation, composition, and ear training as soon as possible. I encourage them to both work on whatever repertoire interests them and find new types of music they don't know they're interested in yet. More advanced students may progress to some of the more advanced music theory, technical etude books, and scale/arpeggio exercises. Read More
