Teacher expertise and credentials
Arkansas Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts

Bachelor's Degree in Music from Arkansas State University
My name is Lynlie Simpson, and I am a music educator. I have a Bachelor of Music Education and a Master of Music in flute performance. I love all kinds of music, and I am a teacher at heart! I truly believe that music is for all ages and abilities. I joined Outschool because I love being a virtual teacher. Teaching online allows us to connect across any distance. This gives opportunity to students who may not have music classes in their area. If I'm not teaching or playing flute...you can find me reading a good book or hanging out with my dog, Stanley!
