Introduction

I'm a saxophonist with 20 years of playing experience, 10 as a professional. I've played with national corporate bands Big Swing and The Ballroom Blasters, Big Blast and the Party Masters, and Life of The Party, played with Archie Bell (The Drells), performed for Google in Anaheim, and the College Football Hall of Fame. I have over ten years of combined classroom and private teaching experience, giving me a balanced approach to education. I have experience teaching students of ages ranging from 8-55 and have a great passion for helping high school students prepare for all state and college auditions ($$$). If a student is willing to learn, I will turn them into the musician that they're supposed to be. I'm more than happy to help you reach your music goals no matter how big or small!

Learning under Jared has opened new avenues for my ability to improve my saxophone playing style (for multiple genres) and improvisation technique. Jared underlines the principles in music theory while still allowing time for his students to express their creativity. For beginners or experienced players looking to improve their music/saxophone knowledge I would recommend.

Jared is a awesome instructor. His commitment and dedication to his students are second to none. I have watched my nephew excel under his tutelage. He looks forward to each lesson with Mr. Brown. My nephew has such a hectic schedule but Jared remains flexible and I appreciate that a great deal. He is a role model and a gentleman.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is pretty straight-forward. Most of my students pay monthly(4 lessons), taking advantage of the $20 discount. I want to continue to spread the love of music so I will give one FREE lesson for any referrals that sign up for lessons as well as the person that was referred.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first lesson will consist of general introduction, finding out what your skill level is, what you're working on in school (if applicable), and goal setting. Once we set goals and a focus, I will assign material that I have or use a book that you are currently working out of to give weekly assignments.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BA in Music Media (Saxophone concentration) I've been teaching private lessons for 6 years and have been playing professionally for over 10 years.
