Student Reviews
Amanda has a bright and enthusiastic style of teaching. She modifies the instructions as needed without making it too simple and condescending or too difficult and beyond reach. She gives plenty of positive reinforcement and is an encouraging and motivating instructor. Overall she's made it a pleasant learning experience and helped me to overcome my fears that learning the Piano would be too difficult.
Desiree Truesdale Teacher: Amanda M.About the Saxophone
Like clarinets, saxophones use a single reed. Saxophone reeds are proportioned slightly differently to clarinet reeds, being wider for the same length. Each size of saxophone (alto, tenor, etc.) uses a different size of reed.
