Flute with Lilly K.

Hi there! It's very exciting that you've decided to take music lessons! You've come to the right place to find an awesome teacher. My love of music runs very deep and teaching others this skill brings me so much joy, whether you're a kid or an adult. Currently, I am a global health worker, saving the world one place and illness at a time, while I teach music on the side. I've spent many years in school and music has been the one medium through which I have relieved stressed and made myself happy, inspired, and relaxed. While going to school, I also continued my music by being a teacher as well as taking a couple of courses and helping out with the university orchestra. Music entered my life when I was 8, with my first instrument being the Flute, then the Santoor, tonbak, followed by the Piano, and today the Oud. Because I began music with a teacher who was studying music academically, I have a very strong background in theory, technique, and tone. Meanwhile however, I truly believe it's about having fun and loving what you play/learn. I have taught adults and children so I feel comfortable with any age group. I also have a pretty vast repertoire of different books and pieces that I use for different levels and ages. My philosophy is for the learning/teaching experience to be a complete collaboration between me and the student. I am tough with certain things because I know they're super important to master but I like to also bend certain rules so that my student is happy with the classes. I hope to hear from you and if not, I hope you find a really awesome music teacher and start this fantastic journey! Cheers, Lilli "If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician.
