Flute Lessons in Tribeca, NY

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet

I have used this method in all of my previous students and found their niche to what they need to make lessons and their playing more enjoyable. We work at the students pace and make sure they are always ready to move on. Read More

When I started as principal, I wanted a way to personally relate to my sixth-grade students, over 125 students at that time. Coincidentally, I also had the good fortune to attend a lecture by Jim Trelease, a renowned read aloud advocate. I read his Read Aloud-Handbook and saw that The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar was a recommended read aloud. It was a story I was familiar with having read with students as a sixth grade teacher over 15 years earlier. Read More

As a teacher, I am learning from my students as well - each person is a unique journey in the world of music and each person teaches me something about communication, understanding, motivation, time-managing during lessons and in individual practice.

My teaching style is focused on playing as much as possible and encouraging good practice habits. The most important thing I can do as a teacher is teach my students good practice habits! This includes showing students not only WHAT to practice, but HOW to practice it. By spending as much time as possible in the lesson playing together, I have found that my students have more fun playing in the lesson, learn more, and in turn practice more during the week!
