Teaching Philosophy
Teaching requires a deep understanding of how to connect with a student on a professional, emotional, and inspirational level. I use this concept as a constant reminder to define my role as an educator in the flute studio. Learning is highly individualized for each member of a private studio and my goal is to help a student become their own teacher. I achieve this through demanding yet accessible standards that allow for a flexible approach to accommodate each student as an individual.
As a teacher, I use these guiding principles to create lessons that produce results:
- Create a life-long drive for musical growth
- Bring about an understanding of how to learn effectively
- Introduce guidelines for empowerment and self-motivation
- Understand the importance of camaraderie and collaboration at the professional level
- Establish a correlation with passion and music
- Generate the desire to share through performing
- Develop the importance of music via community outreach
Lesson Rates
New students are welcome to begin lessons at any point during the year with Mr. Parasky, Miss VanTine (Assistant Teacher) or Miss Heron (Intern Teacher). The introductory Jump Start Package of six lessons is the best way for us to meet one another to get started on YOUR musical journey. Scholarship is available if financial assistance is needed.
