Trumpet Lessons North Carolina

My teaching style is relaxed. I grew up taking lessons that stressed me out and that's the last thing I want any of my students to feel. Music takes practice and sometimes practice is tough, but above all, music should always be fun. My teaching style in encouraging, but not strict. I never want my students to feel like they are letting me down if they do not pick up something as quickly as I would like. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Trumpet, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet

I take a very detailed and analytical approach to music performance, and this is reflected in my teaching. I believe many students look at a piece of music that seems too difficult and become too overwhelmed to realize that's it's not as difficult as it may first appear.

I am a young, but passionate, aspiring trumpet player. I am currently attending The University of North Carolina at Charlotte and am in search of exciting new teaching opportunities with bright young students!

My teaching experience has been for as long as I've been playing. Before studying any particular type of pedagogical approach, I've always had the gift and desire to share what I know with others.

There are some people who are very literal and need specific details, whereas there are some who work well with general instruction and prefer to feel things out viscerally. Read More
