Flute Lessons Harnett County, NC

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo

My approach to teaching will largely depend on your age, experience, and goals for playing the flute. At each lesson, we will set attainable goals and discuss effective practicing methods. As I stated above, I am flexible for teaching as far as which method books and repertoire to learn. No matter what age or skill level, I find that tonal exercises, scales, and etudes to be paramount in helping students to improve their flute playing skills. Read More

Instruments: Flute, Piccolo

I have taught private lessons to students of all ages since my time in college. I enjoy working with a wide variety of ages, and levels of experience from beginners, to students with over ten years of experience who are auditioning for college programs. As a public school music teacher, I am able to compliment what students are already learning in their school music programs and help them prepare for local and regional auditions. Read More

Instruments: Flute, Recorder, Piccolo, Oboe, English Horn

Since learning the oboe I have been searching for every possibility to play the oboe. It all started out with my high schools Wind ensemble, and then trying out for the schools pit orchestra when the musical season rolled around! Sooner or later I had been recruited to play with the schools choir as well and then found myself seeking more and so then I asked my Band director if there were any local ensembles and he told me about the community band to which I auditioned and made it! but even then I went out of my way to find a private teacher and she points me toward a youth symphony a town over and I got into that as well..

Instruments: Saxophone, Flute

I began teaching during my sophomore year of college. I have had the opportunity to instruct all ranges of age groups as well as different sizes of ensembles. I emphasize the importance of regular practice routines with my students, as it leads them to better understand what they need to improve upon as well as helps me to help them achieve the goals they are wishing to reach in their playing.

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Ukulele

For the Clarinet, I typically use The Hendrickson Method book series with supplemental books on the side to enhance their various levels.  For flute and saxophone, I will evaluate based on the student's level. Once I have established a method book, I incorporate solos and additional techniques. I also encourage the students to bring music from their band class and/or other solos they may be working on for festivals, competitions, or auditions. Read More
