Bachelor of Music in Flute Performance
Learn flute! Experienced and encouraging teacher; students of all ages and levels welcome
I have been performing and teaching lessons as my full time career for over 15 years.
I teach ages 7 through adult, beginners through advanced, and enjoy customizing each student's lessons according to their own goals. I mostly teach and perform classical music, but also incorporate other styles of music into lessons at the student's request.
Lessons often incorporate aspects of mindfulness, meditation, and body awareness practices, and I believe in giving students a strong foundation in ear training, improvisation, and music theory.

About Emily H.
5.0
(7)
I have been playing flute for over 30 years, and have a Bachelor of Music degree in flute performance from the Hartt School. My performance career has included orchestral, chamber music, and solo performance, but teaching is my primary focus and source of inspiration.
I really enjoy getting to know each individual student and working as their coach and learning partner. To me, this means prioritizing the student's interests and helping them achieve their own goals. My role as a music teacher is to understand the your musical journey and help map it out with fun and challenging musical adventures along the way. I like to keep lessons light in mood, casual and conversational, but also focused and engaging.
My own background is primarily in classical music, but I love exploring other styles of music with my students as well. I enjoy working with students all the way from beginners through advanced/pre-professional musicians. I welcome students ages 5 through adult.

I'm an adult who is finally getting around to learning the flute (it's always been on my bucket list). I had my first lesson with Emily yesterday and it was great - exactly what I was looking for. Emily is gracious and encouraging. By the end of the session, we even played a duet! So fun.

Emily has been quite helpful in helping me explore my direction in flute-playing--a good mix of 'working with' and guiding me; quite observant about where I go astray, yet encouraging and ease-making.

Emily is very clear, cheerful, supportive and encouraging! So impressed at how quickly she got me feeling confident. Left my first lesson feeling excited to go forward and clear idea about how to practice. Can't wait for our next lesson!
