FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My standard pricing is $53 for half-hour lessons, $63 for 45-minute lessons, and $73 for one-hour lessons.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first lesson is generally seeing where the student is in their development. I like to get to know the student. We talk about the students goals with music, what music they love and how they would like to learn. This helps us devise a curriculum and decide on a strategy for the upcoming session. We speak about what books to purchase if applicable and any other supplies that will be needed for learning.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors Degree in Jazz Studies from Northern Illinois University. Within the program I was trained in Music Theory, Aural Skills, Music History, Jazz History, Improvisation, Writing, Arranging, Jazz Pedagogy, Small Group Jazz Performance and Big Band Performance.
