I am a passionate, experienced musician with a special place in my heart for helping beginners. I have two years of teaching fifth grade, middle school, and high schoolers with flute and saxophone.

For young beginners, I love incorporating fun activities and interactive methods to make learning engaging and enjoyable. I use creative exercises to introduce musical concepts and build a strong technical foundation while keeping the lessons playful and age-appropriate.

For adult students, I take a more personalized approach, finding out their musical interests and tailoring lessons to keep them motivatedwhether it's learning classical pieces, popular songs, or exploring improvisation.
