Clarinet Lessons Louisiana

Instruments: Piano, Clarinet, Music, Keyboard

I have been teaching in New Orleans and expanding my studio for over four years. I love to meet my students where they are, push them to be the best musician they can be, and support them in achieving their goals. One way I do that is through asking them challenging questions that require them to apply previous concepts we've learned and reasoning. Another way is training students to use the metronome early on. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Trumpet, Trombone, Flute, Clarinet, Piccolo, Mallet Percussion, Keyboard

For all ages I like to begin with a skills test. Where they show me where they currently stand with their instrument. From there I refer to books by Trevor Wye to give students a strong fundamental basis in tone, technique, articulation, intonation/vibrato, and breathing/scales. From there the lessons would be tailored to where the student wants to go with their learning. Composition books would be kept to write down what students need to practice and to record their progress. Read More

My teaching is style is unique to say the least. I am about grabbing the student from where they are and preparing them to be successful and ready for the next level. With me failure is not an option. We will set realistic goals and tackle them as we work to our ultimate goal. As the student progresses they will be acknowledged and we will keep striving for excellence. What is excellence you may ask, excellence is defined as the product of hardwork and extra effort that makes the difference between an acceptable job and an exceptional job. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

For beginners, I show them basic chords (Major, Minor and Diminished) if they're a guitarist and if they're a bassist, I teach them octaves and basic waking lines. Once they progress, I show them common scales and chord progressions used in modern music and focus on developing technique. If they're intermediate to advanced, I ask them what they feel they need work on and we focus on that. For example, a student might want to know how to solo over a basic rock or blues progression or the bassist might wanna know how to make his basslines swing more. Read More
