Beginner Level
This is an 4 week mini-class is designed to teach beginning students how to play the trumpet. Students will learn the parts of the trumpet, how to put the instrument together, the appropriate methods for producing sounds/pitches, notes/fingerings, and how to play their first beginner song. If students enjoy this class, I encourage them to come back for private lessons! Students are expected to have a trumpet on their very first lesson day. Students will be taught using resources from the Essential Elements for Band, Trumpet Book 1. Students will work on the first 5 pages of the book and learn 3 to 5 beginner song and 3 fingerings. Students may learn more notes and songs than listed, this depends on the number of students and progress made as a group each week. Week 1: Buzzing on the mouthpiece, holding the Trumpet, and producing the first sound Week 2: The First 3: C, D, E and Hot Cross Buns Week 3: The Fab Five: G, F, E, D, C Week 4: All Together: Lightly Row and Mary had a Little Lamb This will deviate depending on how fast students progress!

Hello!
I'm Ms. Lexi and I teach of a variety of Instrumental Music classes (winds and strings!) and Pre-K general music.
My first taste of teaching comes from my experience as a Teaching Artist with the BSO's Orchkids Program working with students in schools that rarely offered general or instrumental music programs. It was a gift to meet so many bright, talented, and eager students. For the last several years, I have worked with several elementary and middle schools in the public school system. I have taught beginner and intermediate students to play a variety of band and string instruments.
I believe that every student can learn to love music and play an instrument! It is all about finding the right instrument for the student, discovering the music they love, and reinforcing the habits that work for each individual.
My favorite things to do outside of teaching and music are knitting socks, creek swimming with my mastiff and discovering a great new read at Barnes and Noble.Reviews
