Information

All orchestra students are encouraged to take weekly private lessons. Students can take them before school, during their orchestra class period, and after school (Tuesdays & Thursdays)

Private lessons are one-on-one sessions where students get weekly personalized feedback from approved lesson teachers by the district. Studies show that children who take private lessons develop heightened sound processing, contributing to improved reading, language ability, and even higher IQ scores 

In private lessons, students will learn:

1. Individualized practice plans focused on their strengths, challenges, and goals

2. Get direct, immediate help to learn how to correct errors and build stronger foundations

3. Gain confidence in performances

4. Stay motivated and inspired

Lesson rates are between $20-$50, depending on the instructor’s level of education, experience, and the length of the student’s lesson.
