Trombone Lessons in Waleska, GA

For beginning students I would begin with a basic introduction of the instrument and its history. I believe that each instrument has a story to tell!

- My teaching style is one of the many things that sets me a part from other teachers.

Ever since high school, I have enjoyed teaching other students. In college, I would travel to nearby schools to tutor middle and high school instrumental students.

We established an after school band where private lessons were the main form of growth. In my next job, I taught students from beginning, in sixth grade, through their senior year of high school.
