Why Enroll in Private Lessons?

​All band students are highly encouraged to enroll in private lessons, as these offer each player a unique experience that he or she cannot receive in a regular classroom setting. The benefits of private lessons include: 
  • Instruction differentiated to the needs, learning levels, and goals of each student
  • Lessons driven by mastery of goals, not the time-constraints of a large class
  • Challenges to go above and beyond the usual demands of ensemble pieces
  • Instant, individualized feedback to improve playing habits
  • Opportunities to play music outside the typical marching and concert band styles
  • Specialized expert advice for each instrument
Students who choose to participate in the program will meet with a private instrumental specialist once a week at an arranged time. Each lesson is 30 minutes and the cost is $20. Scheduling is done at times that work with your school, work, and family schedule. Please contact a band director if you have any questions regarding private lessons.

Financial assistance is available for families with extenuating circumstances. Please meet with a band director about our scholarship programs.
