Music Lesson Instructors in Eagan, Minnesota (Dakota County)

As an MN Music Teachers Association certified teacher, I specialize in offering private instruction to students age 5-18 with a strong emphasis in theory. My strengths as a teacher lie in teaching beginner and intermediate students. I teach using a broad spectrum of styles including classical, jazz, improvisation, lead sheets, pop and more. My students are given several opportunities to compete and perform throughout the year if that is their desire and the desire of their parents, however I do not require it (but it is strongly encouraged). I prefer to teach in my home studio but am willing to come to you at an increased tuition rate. My overall goal as a teacher is to have students who reach their potential as pianists and who develop enough knowledge and ability to be able to enjoy playing the piano their entire lives....

I provide private, weekly, 30 minute lessons for violin and viola. I also accept beginning cello students (up through year 4). I have a bachelors in music education with a focus on strings, and am an orchestra teacher in the public schools. I am well acquainted with the school programs nearby, and am happy to work with students on school materials or to provide an extra challenge with solo repertoire. My strength lies with early to intermediate players, though I am comfortable also teaching more advanced violinists as well. I stress note reading, and am a strong teacher for those who wish to learn to read notes independently.... See More
