Interested in private study? I have been teaching beginning- and intermediate-level trumpet students since 2007 and I am always looking for more students (especially over the summer).

Normal lesson rates are $18 for 30 minutes and $30 for one hour. I will typically expect students to purchase one of the following (depending on skill level):

	Charles Gouse: Learn to Play the Trumpet/Cornet Alfred Publishing For young beginners (before high school)
Jean-Baptiste Arban: Arban's Complete Conservatory Method for Trumpet Carl Fischer For advanced beginners and students with some experience
	Robert E. Foster: My First Arban Carl Fischer For beginning students who have outgrown "Learn to Play the Trumpet/Cornet," but are not yet ready to invest in the official Arban method.

Some students will be encouraged to purchase additional solo and etude materials as needed. If you have not yet purchased a trumpet or are considering buying a new one, please consult with me first. Generally speaking, I prefer Yamaha trumpets and Vincent Bach mouthpieces (7C for a new player, usually nothing larger than a 1.5C for more advanced players).
