Flute Lessons Trinity County, TX

Instruments: Flute

I have universal expectations for all my students, especially for practicing and lesson structure. However, I know that each person will have a different way of learning that works best for them, and so I choose the approach that will help each student excel. I choose techniques and repertoire based on a student's current abilities and progress and what I think best suits his or her tastes. I also encourage my students to participate in school or area auditions and competitions that mark a student's achievements and success. Read More

For beginning students I like to use a combination of Rubank's Elementery etudes and a privately owned beginner's method book although I am willing to teach from a variety of beginning resources. I take into consideration that each student learns differently and some methods may be more successful than others. I like to start introducing solo repertoire as soon as the basics are down. For more advanced students I like to use Lisa Garner Santa's Flute Theory Workout along with advanced solo repetoire and advanced Eubanks etudes. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

Each student is unique so I start out with seeing where they are and we go from there. If I have a student that is needing more help than usual I will help the student understand things in a way that is helpful for them. Students that have more experience, I use some of the method books that most school use such as Essential Elements for Band, Rubank method books, as well as new material customized for students.

I'm a vibrant and motivated teacher who loves working with students of all ages and most importantly, sharing my passion for music with those around me.

They had a tenor sax that they let me play and I was hooked! I made the top ensemble after my first semester and never looked back. I made region band every year after that and earned 1st divisions on all my ensembles and solos. I played 1st tenor in the jazz band in High School and started to think I could do this for a long time. I got a scholarship to UTA and marched with them for a few years while I concentrated on classical saxophone and studied jazz. Read More
