Flute Lessons in Bethlehem. Amazing Teachers.

Learn to play one of the most recognizable instruments in the orchestra. The flute plays beautiful melodies and embellishments to add to the mood of many pieces. I can teach you how to have a good tone, how to keep your embuchure strong, and how to keep your hands from cramping up. I will use scales, breathing drills, and support training to allow you to reach your goals. I can take you as far as playing in a mid grade orchestra, and intermediate solo pieces. Contact me to talk about your goals and set up lessons.

I am young, and unset in my ways, which means I am more readily able to adapt to work with different students to best help them succeed, and can utilize more updated methods of teaching. My joy from tutoring is found in the students, when their eyes light up after a period of study with sudden recognition, and everything just clicks for them in that moment. When a student succeeds, I feel I have succeeded. The most prominent teaching method I would display would be a step-by-step motion, with each activity completed to its fullest extent, or until a student feels completely satisfied in their understanding. I am patient and deliberate in my work, and will do my best to assist in any which way possible.

I am completing my doctorate in flute performance, and have 10+ years of experience teaching students of all ages. I believe in the power of individualized and collaborative learning, and am excited to help you develop your musical voice and love for the flute. I look forward to working with you or your child!

I have taught Flute and Recorder over a decade in both personal and classroom settings. Several of my students have gone on to achieve gold medals in their solo and ensemble contests, and place within the IMA music competition.

Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to play a stronger, more supported sound and as time goes on you'll be able to expand your range beyond what you thought possible. I specialize in working with beginners, and have experience working with students new to braces, as well. Typically, I use the Rubank Flute Method book in addition to your school's band books.

As far as what age to start flute, I am firm in starting a student no earlier than the spring/summer before their 4th grade year of schooling. This is not to say that a child could not begin learning music earlier, but the arm length required to play flute is necessary to achieve success.

For recorders, I use various method books and pull from many additional pop song books as well. ...

I cover scales/theory, tone production and song learning. I will cater to the students desires and learning styles.

Ten minutes will usually be warmups, tuning, exercises to strengthen breath support and tone. The remainder of the lesson will be spent working on repertoire
