Clarinet Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Clarinet, Keyboard

There are many teaching methods for music performance. I choose the method which is suitable to an individual student. From the early childhood up to adult age. I am able to provide the materials with music notation and theory of both Classical and Jazz styles. Once I recognize the ability of each individual student I choose the path of development to everyone separately. I believe everyone is an individual and to help him grow musically the best way to teach is to discover the point of advance then choose the individual way of education. Read More

I've been teaching most of my adult life. I started tutoring while still in high school, and I continued as a teaching assistant as a college student. I taught at Hope College for six years in a number of different subjects: saxophone, jazz ensembles, music theory, aural skills, piano class, and music appreciation. I even ran the percussion ensemble for one semester, which was a blast! I love my AF band job, but I do miss teaching full-time. Read More

Like I mentioned above, I believe in having fun. You should be having as much fun as you are working hard. I have had more fun in band than almost anything else in my life. I have developed lasting friendships and memories that I will cherish forever. When it comes to teaching, I want students to know how to listen and use their ears. I like to teach by sound and feel before notation. Read More

I always explore different methods that might fit the age and personality of the student but for keyboard lessons I have found success with the Alfred Piano Method. Instrumental lessons usually follow the method book that is selected by their school band director. Beyond that I have a large library of supplementary music to expand the students interest with new styles and composers.I'm very flexible with the method books and after I get to know the student I can select a method that would work the best for instruction.

I am majoring in percussion while working towards my bachelors in music education. Read More
