Trumpet Lessons Southwest

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Trumpet, French Horn

I create my own custom lesson plans upon each students needs/wants. After an assessment of skills I create a plan to help the student harness in on the things that need work and polish the skill sets that are already there. Usually, I pick a good series of lesson books that we will work through together. If it is an entirely new student I work at things one at a time to make sure we're getting in all the basics and fundamentals needed for the more advanced skills. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet, Bass Guitar

I encourage students to do their absolute best but to not push themselves too hard. When you're learning an instrument, it's not always going to be easy. It's important that students can still have fun when they're learning. That's why I give music to students that I know can be accomplished. When a student encounters a difficult series of notes or rhythms, I will break it down and help to make it more understandable. Read More

I love teaching students privately one on one. My youngest student was 4; a Piano student. She was from a Russian family and didn’t speak a word of English. Teaching her was a joint effort between myself and the girl’s mother who did speak English; a very interesting experience. My oldest student was 86; a Guitar student. He had studied previously with another instructor and loved to play. I focused on material that would not only improve his abilities but provide him with something that he could play for people in his social groups. Read More
