I have been an elementary teacher for ten years. I have been playing flute for over twenty years with experience in middle and high school, as well as some college. My main instrument is flute, but I also have experience with piccolo, piano, and saxophone. I participated in concert, jazz, marching, and pep band.
Homework Offered
There will be one page assigned weekly posted in the classroom. This page should only take about 10 minutes to complete and will be more of a game or activity page. Students will also be assigned weekly playing practice. They will need to write down their playing time along with the notes or numbers in the book that they practice. The total time required for daily practice should not exceed more than twenty minutes a day. Daily practice is best to learn the skills needed.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class

Learners should have an understanding of left and right hands for finger and hand placement.
