I currently have openings for students ages 3 to adult. Lessons are 45 minutes long and are given in the student's home. I accept students in North Bennington, Arlington, Dorset, Manchester and Shaftsbury. Other locations may be considered for semi-private lessons. Contact me for more information.
Lessons are casual, age appropriate and geared to match student interest. Most of all they are a fun way for family and friends to enjoy a lifetime activity with each other. Parent/child lessons are encouraged. No prior musical experience is necessary.
Note reading or ear training methods can be used at the student's preference. Please see the resources section for a list of lesson materials that will be helpful. You can choose any of the suggested books, a book of your own or the free individual printable tunes found here. You will learn a combination of tunes and appropriate playing techniques at each lesson based on your ability and experience.
