Music Lessons Kansas City County, MO

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo, Music

I provide solo repertoire for all stages of development to ensure the student has the chance to make music, whatever their skill level may be. If I am working with a student who is not an absolute beginner, I must work to ensure that they have a solid foundation in their playing, and fix any bad habits they may have developed elsewhere. Whatever the playing level, I work to ensure that music and flute are fun, enjoyable, and challenging. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar, Music

My teaching experience began shortly after I left college. I had one really excellent student who eventually graduated high school and went off to another college, and after that I left Kentucky. Since then, my teaching has mostly been limited to interested family and friends because I wanted to make sure I had a solid method together to facilitate musical growth. I resisted taking money for lessons until I felt qualified, since I had noticed with my first student that he was often confused by the lack of structure in my lessons. Read More

I've been giving lessons since I was in high school, but I was able to expand the instruments I'm able to teach from my college training.

As a former certified school teacher my focus is on laying the right foundation for a lifetime of musical learning and enjoyment for the student. I want my students to develop skills in all aspects and styles of playing so that as their preferences progress they will be equipped for all genres and styles. However if an adult or intermediate level student wants to specialize I can accommodate them. That's why I suggest they incorporate both note reading and chord theory to their scope and sequence of study. Read More
