Private Lessons

from $30.00

Private lessons will be 30 minutes in length for $30. They can be doubled to 1-hour lessons as well if more time is needed. Mr. Tolman will focus on the student’s playing ability. He will have the students play various musical exercises to increase their understanding of the instrument, as well as receive feedback during the performance. The instructions will be written down by Mr. Tolman in the student’s spiral notebook. The notes will help the student know what to practice before the next lesson. The student will bring this to every lesson.
