1-2 hours per week. Students will have weekly goals to work toward before each lesson through daily practice time. Students will not be expected to perfect every goal each week, but will need to put forth effort every week through individual practice time.Class Experience
Beginner - Advanced Level
This course is a weekly private flute lesson (one on one) for students of all ability levels. This class is suitable for students with no experience all the way up to advanced learners. Advanced students are also welcome to take a longer lesson (45-minutes) if needed. Each lesson is individualized for the student and will cover all of the skills they need to feel confident and joyful when playing the flute. By taking beginner private lessons, students will: --Improve tone, technique, breathing, and articulation --Learn how to read notes on the staff, play new notes, and put them all together to play songs (or improve on note reading/fluency) --Learn all of my practicing tips and tricks to enjoy practicing --Work on new flute repertoire/solos --Play duets together, which can be recorded and listened to after class (and used as a play-along) --Play games, explore famous flute players, and more Students will have weekly homework to improve their playing and reach their goals. Students will also receive lesson notes, recordings, handouts, and sheet music in the classroom.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree in Music or Theatre or Arts from Morehead State University
Hi, I'm Shelby Anderson (Mrs. Shelby)! 🌼
I've been teaching flute in person and online for nine years and I love using my experience as a professional musician to help flutists discover their passion for music. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Music Education from Morehead State University and received a Graduate Certificate in Flute Performance and Recording & Production from the University of Denver. I am a state certified music teacher in grades Pre-K through 12, and I received KinderFlute teacher training in 2021. 👩🎓
I've taught dozens of brand new beginners, as well as advanced students both in person and on Zoom. Together we're able to find a beautiful sound and have a great start to flute playing! I've also coached advanced students on solo repertoire, tone and technique for competitions, college auditions, and scholarship auditions. Whether your student is a brand new beginner, prepping for music school auditions, or somewhere in between, I would love to guide them in their flute playing journey. 🎶
If I'm not teaching flute lessons and classes, I'm probably drinking tea or spending time with my husband and our two cats! 🐱
