All TJH band students are highly encouraged to enroll in private lessons. The band staff in the OTHS feeder pattern, has assembled a fantastic staff of private lesson instructors. Private lessons offer your child a unique experience that he or she cannot receive in a regular classroom setting. If you choose to participate in the program, your son or daughter will meet with a private instrumental specialist once a week at an arranged time. Lesson times are 30 minutes or an hour. During this time, your student will have 100% of the instructor’s attention. These lessons will be geared toward helping your son or daughter become a truly great musician by teaching them how to improve their musical skills. While we as a band staff strive to work with each student regularly, we are limited because of class size and time. We feel that private lessons are a wonderful resource and that it's contributes a great amount to the student’s musical success.
