Lesson Expectations
Just like any private lessons, oboe students are expected to have warmed up prior to their oboe lesson on-line or off-line.
We will adress your specific oboe issues in the lessons and strategize your learning outcome. In general, the goals of private lessons is to build a solid fundemental of oboe playing and musicianship.
Practice Makes Progress
In our lessons we will learn how to practice the oboe in an effecient and healthy way. Students are strongly advised to put in physical hours of practice on their instruments to better their oboe health and physique.
Here are some recommended time frames per day:
-
Beginners: 15-20 min
-
Intermediate: 30-45 min
-
Advance: 45-60 min per session
