    About Karen S.

    It is with great interest that I am teaching online with Takelessons.com. With extensive music related experience, I am optimistic in my ability to teach all levels of flutist. I am a holder of MM in Performance from San Francisco State University and Bachelors degree in Music from California State University, East Bay. During the course of my career, I have had the opportunity to be associated with multiple orchestras in various permanent and freelancing roles working as a sub or regular performing on C flute and piccolo, I have honed my performance skills and gained competency in combining my musical skills with peers. I like a challenging teaching position, which is why I am naturally drawn to this exciting opportunity. I look forward to hearing from you.
