****LESSONS ARE BY REQUEST**** Private clarinet lessons are one-on-one. They are meant to focus on the individual child so they can receive personalized teaching that best suits their learning style! Students will learn clarinet fundamentals such as notes, air, breathing techniques, and embouchure (how you bite the mouthpiece). They will also be able to learn advanced pieces, some music history, and more nuanced technical training on the clarinet. Classes will be visual and auditory, with occasional screen-sharing for extra visual assistance. Questions will be welcomed throughout the hour meeting, and the private lesson will be structured conversationally to best fit the student's needs. Dates and times are on a student-to-student basis. Parents, students, and I will all decide on a good lesson time that works weekly and private sections for each student!
Learning Goals
Students will learn clarinet skills and technique! They will learn to play some songs and pieces, as well as improve their clarinet skills.

Teacher expertise and credentials
New York Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Bachelor's Degree in Music or Theatre or Arts from New York University
Hi! I'm Teacher M.!
My name is Maya Maloney-Hupert (they/them). I am a musician and educator with a bachelor's degree in music education from NYU. I am a professional clarinetist and have been playing for 15 years, and have been singing for about 11. I was also a martial artist for 10 years, specializing in TaeKwonDo. I am ranked as a third degree black belt. Not only did I do martial arts, but I am a competitive dancer and aerialist.
I am excited to offer a variety of classes in music, crafts, and movement!
I have student taught in 2 different NYC public schools and had my own classroom from 2021-2022. Pre COVID-19, my time was spent teaching clarinet, vocals, and other instruments to students as young as 4 and as old as 14. Since the change, I have taught online lessons, general music, music history, and various forms of world music and its cultural impacts.
I have also played clarinet freelance professionally for NYU as well as through commissions. Similarly, I have taught kids and adults with special needs how to do basic martial arts and some music and movement classes as well.
I teach kids and adults of all ages online lessons for safety and comfort in a pandemic-addled society.
I believe music and movement are integral parts of development and self acceptance. Kids learn to make music and their agency and independence flourishes as well. To be able to make mistakes effectively, as well as have a collaborative experience learning music, allows students connect to the world around them more. I want to be able to help with that.
Movement is also crucial to growth! COVID-19 has impeded movement opportunities for our youth, which in turn is also emotionally stunting them. Giving students a safe place to release energy and gain strength can help them emotionally as well as physically.
With the pandemic and online learning being the primary form of education nowadays, I would love to help bring music, movement, and artistic expression to your child!
