Expectations of Study:
1. Students must create goals to build their personal musicianship.
2. Musicians must listen to role models and develop their own concept of a great sound. I can help you find these role models in recordings and at live performances.
3. Brass musicians must have great ears. Singing and ear training are musts when learning a brass instrument.
4. As a teacher, it is my job to teach a student how to practice. I'll make sure that you know how to improve on your own.
5. The student and teacher must respect each other’s time.
6. Having a “growth mindset” is essential for brass playing.

About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
The first lesson is all about getting to know you and figuring out what you want out of private lessons. It's a time to share our goals and expectations of one another. I promise to provide examples, books recommendations, and resources from day one.
All ages! My trumpet students have ranged from age 8 to 64! Also, all experience levels. I've worked with beginners through college and community college music majors.
Music teachers should:
- Help you set goals and select repertoire
- Provide resources for your studies
- Get in touch with your humanity as a musician
- Help you train your ears!
- Respect your time
- Be flexible and forgiving
- Motivate you to be your very best
- Help you have fun!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Be prepared to address the following with a new teacher:
- Why did I pick this instrument? What kind of music do I want to make?
- What is my budget with my instrument and music making? This is important because it helps me determine what resources I can provide and recommend to you.
- What kind of equipment do I have already? What kind of equipment do I need to be successful?
