Flute Lessons and Group Opportunities for All Ages and Levels
|
Welcome to my flute studio! I have taught flute lessons to students
of all ages and levels in Central Vermont for over 25 years. You may
choose the Suzuki Method or a more traditional approach. Please see
the links on the left for Young Beginners, What Is the Suzuki
Method?, Traditional Approach, Adult Beginners, Intermediate to
Advanced Students, as well as music theory games, practice tips and
much more. Please also check out my flute studio blog. Whatever
your age, prior abilities, interests, learning style, or goals, I will
endeavor to meet you where you are and bring you to new heights
of capability and talent. I currently maintain a teaching studio at the
Monteverdi Music School in downtown Montpelier, Vermont and
serve students from Central Vermont and beyond. I also offer group
opportunities, including a Suzuki group class and an adult flute choir.
Please inquire!

"There are no words that could possibly
convey to you my deep thanks for all these
years of teaching Amelia flute. Your efforts
have always been above and beyond.
Because of it, I believe Amelia will always
have flute playing in her life! Thank you so
much!"
Kimberly Hagen
"One of the best things I have done in
retirement is to start taking lessons from
you. You are so patient, helpful, and fun to
be with."
George Plumb
"You have given Lauren much in the world of
music, but more importantly you have helped
to give her that magic of "child" which she
will carry with her for the rest of her life.
Your patience, humor and stories led to an
outstanding flute choir performance last
spring. For all of your students, music is
never competitive, but only love. For me,
this aspect of music is the most important of
all. I have also learned much from you, and
because of it I am not only a better teacher,
but a better parent as well."
Ruth Einstein, violinist, teacher, parent
"The value of a lesson with you is
immeasurable. When Heidi started playing in
third grade I never dreamt she'd be at this
point." Ann Cookson
"Thank you for being my flute teacher. I've
been having a blast playing flute." Merill

"Thank you for being such a wonderful flute
teacher!! I learned a lot from you about the
flute and my playing. You are always very
patient and kind. Working with you has
really made my love for flute grow." Katie

"Thank you for so many years of wonderful
guidance. Much love,"
Nina Otter
"As fate and fortune sweep me onward, I
find I've really come to like the flute and
become a fairly decent player, with no small
thanks to your great teaching. Thank you."
Robbie McKay (age 15)
"I guess when it comes to great folks,
hard-working, committed, and devoted
music lovers and children lovers, you come
to mind at the top of the list."
Judy Sanger, former director Monteverdi
Music School
