In this class, young musicians focus on tone first—mastering proper posture, breath control, and clean sound production through headjoint games before balancing the full instrument. Throughout the course, students learn fundamental notes across two octaves, build rhythmic agility, learn to read standard notation, and write their own short compositions. The small-group format keeps learning social and supportive as students play duets, share weekly progress, and celebrate each other's achievements.

Hi! I'm Maddison Lee, a dedicated music educator with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (with a Music Endorsement) and certified KinderFlute training. Over the past 10 years of teaching private flute lessons and 2 years directing elementary school orchestra, I've developed an adaptive, energetic teaching style designed to meet every student where they are.I specialize in inclusive music education and have extensive experience teaching students with ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety. I believe music should be accessible, empowering, and tailored to how each child learns best. By blending structured instrument technique with movement, rhythm games, and supportive visual tools, I foster a patient, high-encouragement environment where students build real performance confidence.My ultimate goal is to share my love of music with everyone and help my students cultivate their own lifelong passion for playing!
