Clarinet Lessons Tennessee

Instruments: Saxophone, Clarinet

As a parent, I understand the importance of building up from foundations, and I illustrate that same dedication as I would with my own children through teaching music. I know that everyone learns at different paces, different styles, different ways. My goal is to individualize each musical teaching experience that best serves each student's needs. I meet students at their personal level, and we build from there. That allows for students to not only feel comfortable with the expectations set, but it allows for them to feel as if they can meet goals. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone, Clarinet, Recorder

I am a passionate musician and music teacher who feels very strongly that for a student to learn the clarinet or saxophone, they must always also understand when and where the music comes from. I like to give my students a ver well rounded music education which includes an understanding of music theory, music history and proper performance practice. I grew up and worked as a free-lance musician in New York City for 25 years before moving to Chattanooga, TN. Read More

I have seen my students achieve success at all levels, from being a beginner to winning a college scholarship to the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music! I have taught pre-K through adult instrumental and vocal music. I have taught Jr. High and High School Band. I presently am teaching in Gibson County as a part time public school music teacher since I retired from full time service over 2 years ago. (I just couldn't stay away from it!) Since I started there, I have also been hired by the high school band to be one of their brass instructors. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

I love to see kids progress in music and become excited about it!! My teaching style is very paced and hands on. If a student isn't getting something, I like to slow it down until they they do. I'm very complimentary and positive during lessons; this helps the student be confident. I also try to give the student a guideline on how to practice and how to pace themselves throughout this process. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Clarinet, Oboe, Music

The specific level used will be determined by the student's age. As piano students progress, I will suggest additional repertoire for solo performance and technical study. For late teen to adult students, I get to know my student's interests and musical goals to guide instruction accordingly. This helps to keep lessons engaging and fun despite age or ability level. For all students, I place an emphasis on aural training and sight-reading during instructional time. Read More
