Learn Music Conceptually - Piano, Flute, & Oboe - Emily Sauble, Instructor
The Conceptual Method:
Many classically trained musicians are proficient in reading music, but lack one or more of the following - improvisation, transposition, sight-singing, composition, and training the ear to hear music at a deeper-than-surface level.
The concepts of music: rhythm, melody, phrasing, modality/tonality, harmony, articulation, etc. require these skills to be completely effective, yet I find they are hard to teach from a method book. I use tools from the Kodaly and Dalcroze methods, as well as techniques to avoid injury and use the whole body to play music effortlessly. My goal is to help students 'learn how to learn'. The student finds out that music is not reading notes on a page or imitating their teacher, but discovering on their own the joy of learning! This is at the heart of the homeschooling method, and I believe it should not be any different in the music room.
Qualifications:
* I am first and foremost a Christian, and cannot separate my faith from my teaching
* 15 years of music experience
* 6 years of teaching experience
* NFMC, OMTA and MTNA member
* OMTA level 10 achiever
* I have studied music theory, history, keyboard skills, and pedagogy at college level under skilled instructors Harold Grey and Mary Kogen.

I understand the hardship many are facing in the current economy, and multiple siblings and those with a financial need may also apply for a discount. I teach both at my studio and your home.
Fall term for the 2009-2010 school year begins August 31st.
Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have, I look forward to hearing from you!
