Materials
& Resources
When arriving for lessons it is expected that each student bring supplies. This includes any of the following:
*(My lesson notes are all taken using Word and emailed directly to parent/student. The student can choose to keep all notes digital or print them to keep in a notebook.)
*piano and theory book
*vocal music and solos
*flute books (warm-ups, etude books, solos)
*recorder and books/music
*folder
*any current solos or worksheets
*manuscript paper for compositions
The following music stores carry the method books that I require:
​

Although I do use method books, I do not always use them in their entirety. I will tailor each student’s curriculum based on the individual needs of the student. Everyone is unique and I believe in letting that shine!
Here are a few websites/apps I have found helpful when teaching music theory. I sometimes use these in lessons for theory practice and would be happy to explain them in detail during lesson time.
*Staff Wars (a free music theory app)
