Trombone Lessons Warren County, VA

Instruments: Trumpet, Trombone, Euphonium, French Horn

I have a dynamic, positive, and passionate teaching style. Each student is able to move at their own pace and focus on their specific needs. Students learn to set their own goals and find what practice strategies work for them. I am very quick to point out successes, even in the very small things. I also create space for students to be themselves and create a little bit. Creativity is one of the highest levels of understanding and it's also fun! Read More

I also think it is important to let students choose their own issues to work on. Read More

The first lesson I ever gave was my junior year of high school. It was to a younger student down the hill at the middle school. A trombone lesson. At that moment I knew I wanted to teach. But not just music. I try to teach lessons of life as well. How to better yourself, how to help others, how to make people happy or remorseful, laugh, cry, dance, sing! Read More

It was very interesting to see how the older students would motivate the young students and at the same time how those older students learned new things from the younger students. This experience taught me a valuable lesson that no matter how old or experienced you are, there is always more to learn. In the United States, I have been teaching private and group lessons for the last 6 years in different states such as Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. Read More
