Teaching
Philosophy: |
|
| |
|
|
Private
music lessons offer the opportunity to encourage a
student while helping them to avoid bad playing habits
and learn the fundamentals of correct playing. The
student's enjoyment and confidence are greatly enhanced
while they make steady progress. Important qualities
for the student to possess are a desire to learn,
self discipline and perseverance. Each student is
an individual and has unique learning methods and
concerns. At lessons we work on school band music,
special turmpet exercises and solos. Emphasis is put
on technique development, ear training, rhythm study,
range extension, sight reading and general musicianship.
I encourage my students to perform on recitals, solo
& ensemble contests, at church and to participate
in school and All-State honor bands. |
