私人吉他課程

Hi, and welcome to my page!  I look forward to teaching your children:  music, nature and / or photography!  I believe that in observing nature you can also hear the sounds and trills of music with the rustling of the trees, trickling of water at a stream or bird bath and of course from all the trill's and calls of birds and the vast amount of insects as with the tymbals (drum-like organs) of the cicada's!

Before I list the classes that I teach, I would like to give a little insight of my Education and background.  I have a Bachelor's Degree in Music Education - All Level and I have taught all levels, from Pre-K to 12th grade.  I began my teaching as a Band Director specializing in Bb Clarinet and have taught and currently own a Flute, Recorder, Eb Alto Saxophone and Bb Clarinet.  In 1999 I moved on to teaching Elementary Music where I continued to teach many of the instruments listed above with the addition of: piano, guitar, banjo, trumpet, violin and percussion. 

Upon retiring from the same School District of 34 years I continued giving private lessons at my home to present.  So, I am offering music classes that will include but not limited to:  Recorder, Flute, Bb Clarinet, Eb Alto Saxophone, piano, violin, guitar, banjo and percussion.  My love for nature, animals and photography has flourished since retirement and I will be offering similar subjects that would include but not limited to: backyard bird feeders, humming birds, fluttering butterflies and dragonflies, crawling insects and much more!!!

I believe that given the right opportunity, every child can learn, exceed and more important, have fun doing just that.  If my students / learners, are not having fun and learning at the same time then I'm not succeeding to teach with passion.  I do expect politeness, energy and respect from both the learner and myself.  

About my teaching surroundings and other fun sounds!!!
At any given moment, you might hear a funny sound, a loud sound, a bell clinging or someone repeating what I say or play.  I have two parrots in the next room that love music, repeat rhymic patterns, count to 3, keep the same steady beat and just start having a conversation!!!  Keeping my birds and I company are my kitties!!!!  Never a dull moment here at my studio!!!

Looking forward to teaching your children!!!
