Private Study
Private Study
The Band Directors highly recommend that students take private lessons. Private lessons are appropriate for students of all ability levels, from the very beginning level through the most advanced. These lessons allow students one-on-one attention with a specialist on their instrument, resulting in more specific instruction than what is possible in a large classroom setting. For additional information or a recommendation specific to your student, please contact your son/daughter's band director.
I have many others that are listed inside the band room. Have students ask for more names!!
