Generally, for all beginning students I start by teaching fundamentals. I use Herbert L. Clarke - Elementary Studies for the trumpet, along with Arban's, warm-up exercises and teaching some simple music theory (like scales). 
Arban's I use for all levels, since the book covers all. Clarke has other follow-up books that also cover good material for intermediate to advanced students.I use Charlier - 36 Etudes for the trumpet for students with an advanced level. 
I teach improvisation for students who (want to) play jazz, along with covering the stylistics. Patterns for Jazz by Jerry Coker and Jazzconceptions by Jim Snidero, Jamey Aebersold Jazz Play-A-Longs are books that I use besides transcribing solos. I can accompany on piano too.

I am a professional musician with a great passion for teaching and passing on my knowledge. I have a Bachelors and Masters degree in Jazz performance on trumpet. I also had 6 years of (classical) piano training in my younger years, which is helpful for accompaniment and composing. My studies covered a wide range of subjects, which gave me a thorough knowledge of music arranging, music theory, jazz harmony and composition.  My teaching experience dates back to 2009. Ever since I have been teaching privately, doing brass masterclasses and teaching individuals and groups at music schools.
