Every person can be blessed with the power of music...don't lose your chance!!! *** Studio Equipment *** dedicated lesson room in the house, full sized Casio keyboard (weighted keys and sustain pedal), has own flute but student will have to have their own , music stand, metronome *** Travel Equipment *** I expect they provide the instrument and the books, I usually recommend the books they have to buy; if they're beginners I can provide the first lessons music material. *** Specialties *** I usually adjust the methods and music style to every individual student, if they're small kids I talk to the parents to know their goals; then I choose individual development programs for every kid.
