Woodwind Instruction for Schools

I am currently the woodwind instructor for the four middle schools in Littleton Public Schools (Goddard, Powell, Euclid, and Newton) and teach clarinet sectionals at Ken Caryl Middle School.  I have also worked with woodwinds at Dakota Ridge High School and Heritage High School for both marching and concert bands. If you are interested in having me come and teach woodwinds (private lessons or small groups) at your school, please reach out to me at mariedwatkins1111@gmail.com.
