***NOW ACCEPTING NEW STUDENTS FOR FALL 2012!*** CONTACT ME TO REQUEST MORE INFORMATION/SET UP A FREE INTRODUCTORY LESSON BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS. Please visit my website for more information about me and my teaching studio. www.katherineisbill.com Why should I take flute lessons with Katherine? As soon as you walk in the door to my studio, you are instantly included in my flute family. This means never-ending support, guidance, and quality music making. Time spent in a weekly lesson is not the only time I spend supporting you. This is not just flute lessons! This is a flute program filled with weekly support emails, lots of handouts about flute, flute playing, music history and theory, and research to find enrichment activities, competitions, and performance opportunities. These are examples of some of the tasks I complete for my students outside of our weekly lesson. Parents are provided with a comfy couch (some parents choose to take a nap!), a power strip for plugging in their computer, and the promise of hearing their child improve each week, as well as articles spread across my coffee table covering topics such as “How to Help Your Child Succeed in Music,” “Taking Private Music Lessons and Intelligence,” as well as a weekly music comic and the latest flute magazine (yes, there are flute magazines). I am not only a performer but also strive to be the best teacher I can be. I devote myself to my students enjoy nothing more than seeing my students excel. I am a professional flutist but also a professional flute TEACHER! I observe master flute teachers and communicate with others about teaching and learning. Lessons are an exercise in "teamwork." The "team" includes the student, the teacher, and the parent(s). Parents are expected to encourage students, to remind them to practice, and to help them obtain needed materials in a timely manner. I have found that when parents take an active role in encouraging students to practice, students experience more success. Since you are investing in private flute lessons, you can expect to have me be your biggest fan and supporter. Flute lessons will become your favorite hour of the week! Rates And Availability My studio is located in the Green Lake neighborhood. (It's a remodeled 100 year old house complete with sun porch overlooking the city for parents to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee or get some work done during the lesson.) Please contact me directly for information about my rates. Thank you!
