Private Lessons are an extremely valuable experience for students playing a musical instrument. Private Teachers will give your student 30-45 minutes of individual attention on a weekly basis. A Private Teacher also provides a model for tone, technique, and musical expression. While Private Lessons are not required, they are highly recommended. Most of the finest musicians and scholarship winners from Geisler Middle School have taken private lessons.
Private Lessons are not reserved for only students who are behind or students who are excelling, they are for any and all students who are interested and able. They do cost money and each private lesson teacher will have their own rate. Feel free to call the teachers on the list and compare prices as well as get a sense of whether that teacher would be a good fit for your student.
Below are lists of suggested private lessons teachers.
I have extracted ones I suggest personally in the instrument specific files. The Master List - Private Teachers is all the private teachers that the WLCSD Orchestra Teachers suggest.
