FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$50 for an hour, plus $5 for over 10 miles travel (for any lesson) $30 for 30 min $40 for 45 min
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask your experience first and foremost. I might quiz you on the basics like reading music and rhythms, or music theory. This will let us form a base of where to start (I don't want to teach you what you already know, that's boring). After that, I will give you a playing test to find out where to start, and WHAT to start working on in lessons. After that, I will give my recommendation on concepts we should be working on, where your weak spots are, your strengths, and combine all that with what you want to be working on.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree in Music Education K-12, and am certified to teach music in the state of Washington. I have three years experience teaching music--one year teaching beginning band, and two years teaching music to high school students with Autism. I have 18 years experience on brass instruments (with the French Horn being my major instrument), 8 years experience playing woodwind and percussion instruments.
