    About Andrew W.

    I’m a trumpet teacher and performer, as well as a high school band director! My teaching centers around helping each student determine their musical goals, and creating a clear plan for achieving those goals. Ultimately, my job is to teach you how to diagnose and address your own technical and musical questions! When you get to a point where you can fix your own playing issues, I’ve done my job well!
