Saxophone Lessons Crittenden County, AR

Instruments: Saxophone, Clarinet

I believe every person's needs are different making the books and pieces that I recommend different for each student. But, teaching materials in my studio include etude and study books, exercises written by myself to target specific needs and standard solo repertoire that I believe every saxophone or clarinetist should play. Students will also be requested to keep a journal either electronically or on paper with short notes about practice sessions from each day, to help guide goals and instruction in each lesson.

Instruments: Saxophone, Clarinet, Music

While I don't have much experience teaching instruments (yet!!!), I have been teaching for a long time. Dating back to high school I would often tutor students on various subjects like math, chemistry, and, of course, music. I was known for explaining things to students that they couldn't understand the way that the teachers would teach it.

Im always wanting my students to be a well rounded individual in music and in life. Read More
