During these lessons, we focus on building up the learner(s) specific goals, skills, and interests. During classes, topics we may work on include, but are not limited to reading chord charts and playing chords; accompanying songs; strumming techniques; reading tablature, traditional notation, and rhythmic figures; and playing melodies. Students will also be supported in developing appropriate playing position and independence.

These classes are recommended for beginner players, intermediate players, or advanced players who are looking to develop new skills and further their technique. Most students in this age range will be best suited to playing soprano recorder. However, older students or those with larger hands may be ready to play alto recorder.

In the event that the minimum enrollment for this class is not met, the teacher still plans to teach the class in the hopes of other learners joining. Parents, if you prefer that your learner ONLY work in a group and do not want them to be a single learner in class, please message the instructor to let her know.
