Introduction: My work as a music teacher stands out because I sincerely care about the musical life of all of my students. I have had many students become professional musicians so I know that anyone can cultivate their talent if they want to to. Having a motivated, inspiring teacher really helps !! Also, finding the right music that motivates each student is very important ! I feel joy and pride hearing my students improve and achieve their goals.

Fay is a fantastic teacher for any level of saxophonist. I am a pro-level saxophonist who needed to brush up on my theory and sightreading. Fay worked with me to find my starting place and gave me great lessons each week! I recommend her highly!

My son (now12) started playing the flute a year and a half ago. I gave him the option of choosing a teacher and paid for two first lessons. The first was at a local music school and the other was with Fay. After trying both, he chose Fay. She has been the most enthusiastic and wonderful teacher! He did already know how to read music, but his progress has been stunning. Within 9 months he was ready for a more advanced instrument. He looks forward to his time with her, he is very comfortable working with her and she has been incredibly accommodating with our schedule.

For my 60th birthday, I decided that I would finally learn to play the saxophone, forty years after I gave up the clarinet. I have been taking weekly saxophone lessons from Fay for about nine months now, and will continue to do so. Fay is a very patient and encouraging teacher. She has taught me some music theory that I had never learned before, as well as the mechanics of playing the tenor sax. In addition, she is a talented improviser, and her love of music is always apparent. Lessons consist of a nice blend of scales and exercises, along with some very satisfying pieces of jazz and classical music. I recommend Fay without hesitation or reservation.

Fay Roberts is an outstanding woodwind teacher - flute, sax, clarinet and master player. Flute is the focus, but anyone from beginner to professional can benefit from her instruction on any of these instruments. Beyond the individual instruments, Fay weaves musicianship and theory into lessons seamlessly such that one is always remembering while practicing, rehearsing, playing a gig or recording, and aspect of technique or general musicianship that came from a lesson with Fay. In addition, philosophy of music, and the philosophy of pursuing a challenging endeavor in general, is there, too - and it has assisted the student writing this review again and again in various circumstances. And Fay is one heck of a nice and warm person to boot - while not letting you get away with any BS, either! A VERY good combination.

Fay gets right to it and jumps you right into where you're at. She will work you and push you in a positive way. She also plays with you which is very helpful and has her own band. I feel like I'm really getting my money's worth. I'd recommend her to anybody.
