Trumpet Lessons Northeast

Instruments: Trumpet

To date I have been teaching trumpet lessons for two years, which began during my senior year of college.

I believe that in the world of music, a teacher's job tends to consist more of providing resources and an extra set of ears instead of actually teaching.
