I teach saxophone, clarinet, flute, harmonica, and bass guitar online(virtually). I think it's very important from the beginning to find your individual voice on your instrument. Technique is important, but it will be taught simultaneously with artistic voice. One of the great things about music is being to express your version of yourself on your instrument. What's the point in learning scales if you can't play the song you want to play? From day one, we will focus on all aspects of learning, and of music, at the same time. I'm super patient and I love to teach, and I'll cater my teaching style to the individual student. I look forward to teaching you! About me: I started playing music when I was I ten. I was awarded a partial scholarship to the University of Idaho's Lionel Hampton School of Music where I majored in Classical Saxophone Performance, where I won the Outstanding Jazz Soloist award (2004). I then received a partial scholarship to the Berklee College of Music and studied there with a principal instrument of saxophone, and graduated with a degree in Contemporary Writing and Production in 2009. I've spent the last ten years performing full-time, on cruise ships (Carnival, Princess, Holland-America, Celebrity, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, The World), land tours (iLa Mawana national tour), theatre productions (For The Record: The Brat Pack, Broadway's After Midnight), and independent bands (Samsaya Trio, Vivian Clement Quartet). My performing experience has taken me to 70 countries and all seven continents. I've self-recorded and self- produced multiple albums. I've been featured as an arranger in many settings, including Robert McFletcher's LOVE. I have three of my own shows (A Public Saxophone and other Bedtime Stories, Just Sax, and CBSAXLIVE). While I studied saxophone as my primary instrument, I also play flute, clarinet, harmonica and bass guitar at a professional level. My degree is in composition and recording/production, so I would love to help anyone getting started in that area. I also teach music theory for those interested in learning theory.

Patient, enthusiastic, and experienced instrumental (woodwind) tutor. ABOUT OLIVIA She is a freelance woodwind musician and teacher, after initial training as a classical oboist in Croatia, she completed her education at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow. She has extensive music teaching experience both privately and in schools with woodwinds teaching in 1-to-1b and group settings, as well as conducting bands, and choirs. She plays and teaches oboe, cor anglais, flute, clarinet, bassoon, recorder, and saxophone, and has performed both as a soloist and with a variety of orchestras, chamber groups, and musical theatre bands in the UK and across Eastern and Central Europe, and has used improvisation to create short soundtracks for animations and documentaries. TEACHING Using tailored approaches to best meet the needs and ambitions of her students. Her teaching toolkit includes an accessible fun repertoire alongside more formal pieces, exercises to develop breathing techniques, enhance your technical ease and enhance sight-reading skills, and improvisation as a method to build self-confidence and creativity as a performer. She is qualified to teach music in English and Croatian (as she is bilingual) and can teach all levels, including exam preparation. YOUR FIRST LESSON During your first lesson, you will first have a quick discussion about your musical background, choice of instrument, and your musical goals. If you are a beginner, you will then learn how to set up and care for your instrument, mouthpiece, and reed. Then make sounds on your mouthpiece/reed and work on tounging, breathing, posture, and rhythm using your mouthpiece/reed, and play with the full instrument. If you already have knowledge of the instrument you will work on various techniques and exercises using sight reading, memory, improvisation, and a piece you have brought with you or she will provide for you if you have nothing prepared. You will leave your lesson with a clear understanding of your instrument and practice goals for your musical ambitions and aspirations. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with Olivia.
