Music Lessons in Hartland, CT

Instruments: Flute

I have been teaching students since my sophomore year of high school, 3 years ago. I taught both beginner piano lessons and flute lessons of all levels. I encourage my students to keep a practice journal with their practice schedule, daily practice logs, long term and short term goals, lessons from notes, and anything else that can be useful for improvement. This allows students to continue progressing rather than finding themselves unmotivated to practice. Read More

My goal as a teacher is to be a role model and positive influence on all of my students. My students will learn that I am a human and student just like them.

I want my students to feel comfortable expressing concerns, frustrations, and blocks in their musicality to me, so that we can work through these challenges. Music is an outlet for people of all ages, genders, races, and talent levels. Read More
