Trombone Lessons Dupage County, IL

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Trombone, Music

My experience with teaching music began on my college campus when the students came up to me asking me to teach them certain songs to play. I did this for a small fee and got them prepared to play it live in front of friends and family. Soon after that, my adviser had me help lead the student teacher program at the Logan county park district and we started off with 6 students and now we have over 8 students for each student-teacher in our program and now we have more online material for the students.

In my lessons, I aim to not only cover the skills in playing the instrument, but also basic music theory. I also incorporate reflective questions for students to get them thinking about the music in new ways (e.g., structurally, historically, philosophically, etc.).

Beginning students will start out with technique practices, while introducing solo literature when appropriate. Technique studies can always be improved and studied, no matter a student's age or proficiency. I try to work within the repertoire a student is interested in at first, then expanding to materials and genres the student may find interesting to help broaden the experience and knowledge a student can gain from our lessons. No matter the age or ability level, I help students understand that each lesson and new idea or piece we learn adds to their experience, and experiences are building blocks for our futures. Read More
