Trombone Lessons in Ingleside, IL

Instruments: Trombone

When working in private lessons, I work with each student to set goals, both long and short term.

I'm a firm believer in taking a student where they are and building off of their interests. Finding what a student is interested in and using that as a starting point is a part of my teaching approach.

I developed my skills as a result of my upbringing. My mother was a teacher who specialized in encouraging me to live up to my most cherished dreams.
