Clarinet Lessons Alabama

My teaching clarinet began when I was in high school, giving lessons to 18+-students after school and on Saturdays.

After about a two year "sabbatical" I really missed teaching. I then began acquiring new students through the Methodist church I attend. Read More

For beginning students I focus on the basic skills, how to hold the clarinet, how the ambrochure should be, how to breathe, and learn the basic notes and fingerings of a scale.

I like to start where the student is. For my youngest students, we begin with the basics of counting and the music alphabet.

I use books, apps, flashcards, and other resources in my teaching. Read More
