    Learn Saxophone | Certified Music Teacher | 10+ years of experience | Masters in Music Education

    As an elementary band teacher, I specialize in helping students fall in love with their instrument. I’ve played saxophone for over 20 years and I’ve taught this instrument and many others to young musicians for over half that amount of time. Whether you’re looking forward to being introduced to the saxophone for the first time ever, or if you’ve played for a few years and want to take your performance to the next level, please get in touch.

    About Erika S.

    I am a public school elementary band teacher with over ten years of teaching experience. I’ve played the saxophone for over twenty years. I find joy in helping students fall in love with their instrument. If you’re looking for someone that can introduce you to the saxophone or help you take your playing to the next level, I believe we could be a good match. I have experience in coaching students for auditions, preparing them for performances, and helping them find excitement in music-making. The saxophone is an extraordinary instrument with a rich history. I look forward to sharing it with you!
