Reston, VA Clarinet Lessons

There are many ways to cultivate your musical skill whether it's visual, kinesthetic, or auditory. Let's find out which way works best for you!

Most schools do not offer the flexibility in learning styles necessary for you to find your ideal way of processing new information, whether it be visual, auditorial, kinesthetic, memetic, right brain/left brain, etc.

That's why I'm here! I pride myself on working with each individual student on the subtle ways that they learn and form healthy habits. If you have any questions about my teaching styles or methods please ask!

A little more about me:

I have over 10 years of guitar experience, studying under Jazz heavyweights Corey Christiansen, Oteil Burbridge, and Dan Miller. I pride myself in putting my students needs and wants above all else. I wish to impart a love for music onto my students that can only be cultivated by the bond a teacher and their student share, let us learn and grow together!

I enjoy teaching clarinet to students of all ages, regardless of experience level.

I believe in catering lessons to a students individual desires and musical goals. Our lessons can cover a broad range of concepts like:
Musicality/Performance
Jazz Improvisation
Composition/Arranging
Transitioning from Clarinet to Sax, Bass Clarinet or Flute
How to practice
Tone and Sound production
Technique
Reading/Sight Reading
Learning Tunes
And MUCH, MUCH MORE!!!

Clarinet lessons!

I believe in creating an energetic and engaging learning environment for all my students. I truly believe that learning music should be a positive and rewarding experience for any individual and that each individual's musical journey is unique. That being said, I design my lessons specifically for the current needs of my student and to challenge them at the same time.

Most of all, I seek to develop skills such as time management, discipline, goal-setting, and self-motivation in all my students. Music is a wonderful thing to learn and can contribute positively to a person's development!

I study under a Doctor of Clarinet performance. I was an all-state Clarinet player in highschool. Now I play with the intercollegiate honor band. I can help prep my students for any competitions they may be facing and I can help them pick quality pieces of music to play. I can help anyone grow musically on the clarinet and teach them to love playing clarinet. I specialize in clarinet and will be able to help improve tone quality, intonation, and many other clarinet specific techniques.

I am a professional clarinetist and certified music teacher (grades K-12) with 5 years of private clarinet teaching experience. Depending on what point in the journey each student is it, our lessons will cover all aspects of playing the clarinet, from proper breathing to performing solo repertoire. I strive to give each of my students a toolbox they can use when they encounter problems while practicing. I want my students to become their own teachers and to think intellectually about music and their instrument.
