Fun and Engaging Flute Lessons for All Skill Levels and Ages!

Hello there! I’m excited to introduce myself as your flute teacher. I’ve been teaching private flute lessons for three years, both online and in-person in the Chicago-land area. I hold a bachelor degree in Music Performance from Eastern Illinois University and have completed graduate coursework from Northern Illinois University. When I’m not playing or teaching the flute, I enjoy sipping on coffee, munching on tacos, and exploring new places! During our time together, I will create a tailored curriculum that suits you or your students’ individual needs. Whether you’re a beginner, intermediate, or advanced flutist, I have plenty of helpful advice to improve your playing. For those who are just starting out, I’ll provide a structured lesson plan that focuses on the fundamentals of music, such as learning to read music and understanding rhythm. We’ll also cover the basics of flute playing such as how to hold the instrument, how to properly assemble/disassemble it, and create a good sound. Intermediate and advanced students will enjoy learning about standard flute repertoire, music history and music theory. If you have any questions about what we’ll cover in our lessons, feel free to ask me! I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with you and help you achieve your flute-playing goals. Let’s get started!

For all of my flute classes students can expect a tailored curriculum and appropriate feedback. Some of the topics covered in my one on one lessons include the following:
Tone
Technique
Vibrato
Dynamics

All age levels are welcome! From never played, to high school students, this class is for you.

The class will be structured as follows:
Introductions, or saying hello again
