I am an adult, always wanted to learn to play trumpet, and started talking lessons with John six months ago. John is very patient, took me from not being able to play a single note to a point where I confidently play scales and even parts in duets. His lessons are always fun and a good learning experience. John is very approachable and, within reason, he was able to fit the classes to my work schedule.

FAQs

I like to use email to communicate with students since I send music electronically. I like to set up lessons monthly so I can manage my schedule effectively.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have a BA in Music Education many years of experience both public and private education.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

I look for serious students who are willing to commit to a one hour lesson and practicing every day.

How did you get started teaching?

We love music and I enjoy showing others how to play.

What types of students have you worked with?

I have had successful students at all levels. It helps if students come to me with some basic musical training and show interest and curiosity for music.
