Bio

Hi, I’m Amanda! I graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Northwestern - St. Paul with a major in Music Performance and a minor in History. A few years later I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Masters degree in Music Performance. Since then, I have performed as a flutist and piccoloist with ensembles including the LaCrosse Symphony and Wayzata Symphony. I have also taught private flute lessons to students ages 6 to 64 for the past eleven years. My high school-aged...

Hi, I’m Amanda! I graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Northwestern - St. Paul with a major in Music Performance and a minor in History. A few years later I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Masters degree in Music Performance. Since then, I have performed as a flutist and piccoloist with ensembles including the LaCrosse Symphony and Wayzata Symphony. I have also taught private flute lessons to students ages 6 to 64 for the past eleven years. My high school-aged students have been accepted into Minnesota Youth Symphonies, Greater Twin Cities Symphonies, and All-State Ensembles.

I also have a passion for college-level teaching. I previously taught Music History, Flute Ensemble, and Woodwind Ensemble at Crown College. The academic side of music is just as fascinating to me as the performance side!

My teaching style is warm, enthusiastic, and growth-focused. I want my students to leave each lesson with both a smile on their face and the inspiration to achieve the next level of proficiency!

Examples of private flute lesson materials may include Andersen Etudes, Flute Music by French Composers, and Bach Sonatas.

Music History, Music Theory, and Ear Training lesson materials will include any coursework the student is already working on as well as supplemental texts and online resources as necessary.

I look forward to working together to achieve your musical goals!

In 2019, Focus Publishing released Already Beloved, my debut self-help book. Proofreading was a major aspect of that creative process.

Music History

Music History

As an undergraduate at the University of Northwestern - St. Paul, Music was my major and History was my minor. Combining these two subjects in the field of Music History was therefore a natural interest of mine. During and after graduate school, I taught Music History at Crown College. I especially enjoy researching Medieval female composers and Baroque performance practice.

Ear Training

I have successfully completed five ear training courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels combined. I am enthusiastic about helping music students learn to play by ear, recognize intervals, and successfully complete diction exercises.

In recent years, my students have been accepted into Minnesota Youth Symphonies, All-State Ensembles, and the University of Minnesota Symphonic Band. My goal is for my students to feel inspired and empowered at every level of musical growth.
