Private Lessons
Private lessons are extremely beneficial for all band students whether they are about to start their beginner year or have been playing for many years already–private lessons play a HUGE role in the success of our Wiley Band program.
WHO ARE PRIVATE LESSONS FOR?
Private lessons are for students who want to be as successful as possible on their instrument! Private Lessons aren’t just for students who are struggling with certain aspects of playing their instrument–private lessons are for ALL students who want to be great and have more support in reaching their goals!
Students who take weekly private lessons are able to develop and refine their skills at a much faster pace since they are able to get so much more individualized and specific attention each week. Students in private lessons are often at the top of their beginner classes and seated in our STATE CHAMPION HONOR BAND: the Wiley Wind Ensemble! A huge part of why our students are such great musicians is because of the quality of their private lesson instruction!
WHO TEACHES PRIVATE LESSONS?
We have some of the most respected private teaching faculty in the nation! Most of our lesson teachers have their masters and doctoral degrees on their respective instruments and have had successful performing and teaching careers so your students are in great hands!

WHAT IS THE COST?
On average, $25-30 per 30 min lesson based on the instructor’s education and experience
If you would like for your student to take private lessons but do not think that you have the financial capability to make a year long commitment, you can apply for financial assistance. We are VERY fortunate in LISD to have some funds available to help out families in need. Please fill out the enrollment and be sure that you select that you will be applying for grant assistance and I will send you the application.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Private Lessons can occur before school, during your student’s band class period, or after school depending on both the teacher’s availability and your family schedule.
