I have been playing the flute for the past decade, and I have taught part time at a local middle school since my freshman year of college. I’ve always wanted to help others become more successful, especially since during my freshman and sophomore years of high school, I did not have a lesson teacher of my own, so I often had to work alone. I want to be able to inspire students to be better and be successful, and help them become better than they could’ve possibly imagined, with the work being put it in, of course!

As a flute player, where would we be without the teachings of Trevor Wye, Marcel Moyse, Paul Taffanel and Philippe Gaubert? Of course, I will start by determining where they are at, a test, so to say. For the beginners, I like to start with the Trevor Wye beginners books. As they grow more advanced, we will look at separate books such as the 24 melodic studies by Moyse and intermediate books that are also by Wye. As we grow, I will eventually ask my student what they’re interested in, and we can make lessons a lot more interesting and relaxed!
