Violin Lessons Cook County, IL

Instruments: Violin, Flute, Ukulele, Recorder

For beginners I like to start off with how to put the flute together. It can be confusing at first, but it isnt too terribly difficult.

I can be flexible on what to teach based on where the students level is at. Read More
