Flute with Jewel P.

Fremont After School Band Program

Taught weekly group flute (and occasionally other instrument) lessons to elementary school aged children in an after school program. Made sure students understood music fundamentals such as how to read music, rhythm, and how to watch a conductor as well as flute specific techniques such as fingerings, proper embouchure, and how to breath with proper posture. Guided the students, who mostly had not touched a flute before their fist class, to be able to play full page songs within a band setting within three months.

Girl Scouts of San Francisco Bay Area

Helped to run an after school STEM program for inner-city youth in grades 6-9. This included making lesson plans, executing the plans, and making sure the students were fully understanding the material. It also included finding creative ways to make the material engaging so that these at-risk youth would return week after week to learn more.

BYU Concert Band

Help the first chair for flute and only chair for piccolo in the BYU concert band. This meant I played many solos as well as being the only piccolo player for any pieces that required it.

Independent English School in Japan

Spent a summer of college teaching English to children (and the occasional adult) in Japan. During their summer programs, I would spend about eight hours a day teaching English in different levels to different age groups mostly in group settings. While we did do lessons from a book to follow their set curriculum, we would also play games to solidify learning and make the learning process fun.

BYU Marching Band

Assisted a portion of the large Piccolo section of the BYU Marching Band throughout marching season and beyond. This included assisting in learning music, positions, and rapid memorization of other members of the Piccolo section.
