PRIVATE LESSONS
Private instruction on all instruments is available from qualified teachers at a reasonable rate in the metropolitan area. We are unable to offer private instruction at Blaine High School during the day due to time, space, and legal concerns. Experience has shown that students who study on a weekly basis with a private instructor advance at a much faster rate than those who do not study privately. Private instruction is highly recommended for all Blaine High School students. If a suitable professional teacher cannot be found, one inexpensive option for younger students is to seek out older students in the BHS band program and take lessons from them. This is valuable both for the “teacher and the student". Every student can benefit from private instruction and have a much better chance of developing musical skills and becoming leaders in our program. Feel free contact the band director(s) for recommendations and details.
