My comments on tutoring Saxophone : I am a classically trained saxophonist, fluent on alto, tenor, and baritone saxophone. I have been teaching private lessons for the past four years and am currently the baritone saxophonist for the Real Time Sax Quartet.

I have been playing saxophone for 15 years and have played in a variety of large and small ensembles at all levels including: Marching Band, Jazz Ensemble, Orchestra, Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble, and various select chamber ensembles. I have also done extensive solo work performing a vast array of saxophone literature at many different levels and locations. I have played/taught primarily locally in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York giving private lessons/performances in addition to high school and collegiate master classes. I have also performed numerous times in saxophone conferences held in both Virginia and Georgia. In 2010 my saxophone quartet was awarded a grant by the University of Connecticut to play in both England and the Netherlands. For the past year I have been the baritone saxophonist for the Real Time Quartet.
My teaching style is focussed around a very su ... read more

I earned the Barbara Allen W ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have three school aged children of my own and I enjoy working with children to help them reach their full potential through a variety of teaching techniques, since each child learns differently. I am very personable, friendly and I have a great sense of humor. I am also very patient and able to switch gears when a teaching method or approach is not working for a particular child. Getting to know a child is crucial to the learning process, so I listen very carefully to children and make assessments about where they are academically, as well as making observations about their temperament, attention span and personality in my teaching approach. In this way, I am able to I am able to make them feel comfortable and open to learning.
I'm currently a Substitute Teacher. I possess a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English from the University of Rhode Island and my teaching license for Elem ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of the Boston Conservatory of Music, I was trained to be disciplined as a music educator and as a performer. My classroom internship began freshman year and continued until my senior year when I was required to student teach general music classes.I also maintained my vocal performance level by giving recitals and continuing vocal studies even until the present time. I have been a church music director and soloist for twenty-three years and have taught general music in grades Pre-School-8 for twenty-eight years.
I particularly enjoy teaching grades K-5 because they are very eager to learn and explore music through movement, Orff instruments, singing, and dancing. However, I enjoy teaching students who are serious about learning an instrument and want to progress. I believe that all children have a certain potential which can be achieved with perseverance.
