your child struggling in school? Music will help them learn

I specialize in teaching children 6-12 but can just about show anyone how to play an instrument. I start with teaching them to read music and then we graduate to learning to play music.
I've been playing music since I was 14. I taught myself how to play every brass instrument plus tenor/alto saxophone. By the time I was ready for college I had several options thanks to band. Music has helped open so many doors for me and I would love to spread my knowledge to your child and help them to achieve their goals! Music can also help your child in other subjects they might have trouble concentrating in. So not only will your child come out playing their instrument better but their class work will improve too!

Trumpet is one of my top subjects! William Cooper has been teaching private trumpet lessons since 2009. William is currently pursuing a Master of Music at Northwestern University, where he also received a Bachelor of Music in 2013.

Many of William's middle and high school students have been selected for all-district and all-state bands and orchestras. William strives to make music fun and enjoyable to his students while challenging them to be the best they can be.

A Little Bit About Me...

I received a degree in Jazz Performance from The Ohio State University. While there, I auditioned into the top Jazz Ensemble for four years in a row. I excelled to the top of the program, while participating in different ensembles such as the JECO Intercollegiate band for four years. This band consisted of the best players in the state of Ohio. I also had the opportunity to frequently play with the great Vaughn Wiester. From his big band and the university's, I had the opportunity to play with Jazz legends throughout the country. I have also had the opportunity to travel to China for a ten day tour with the OSU Jazz Ensemble, where we had the chance to play for five different cities. Towards the end of my college career, I engineered and recorded two CDs. One with my own group, Collective Reaction, and one with the great jazz vocalist, Liz Woolley. Both of these CDs were pro ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a recent graduate of the University of North Texas with a degree in Music Education. While at North Texas, I taught middle and high school-aged students the art of music. During the summer I graduated, I tutored elementary and middle school-aged children reading and math. These experiences have helped me to gain different teaching skills and how to teach students with different learning capabilities. I like to teach on an individual basis because I can focus on a single student who has a unique way of learning. I can cater to this student and help him/her in exactly the way he/she needs. I am outgoing, energetic, and have a passion for children and teaching.
Because each student has a unique personality and way he learns, I believe in making lesson plans that will draw in the different types of learners: hands on, experience, visual, and aural. When I teach individual students ... read more
