Teaching Philosophy
Every student is an individual, and private flute lessons honor each student’s unique needs and goals. Instruction is student-led; that is, I prompt and facilitate discoveries, but the student is empowered by their own conclusions. Through this process the student learns how to self-assess, which requires active listening and engaged participation in their learning and flute playing.
My goal is to cultivate within my students a lifelong love for music, curiosity for learning, and eagerness for life! I strive to make music relevant in students’ lives no matter their professional pursuits.
“I just love Indigo! She is calm and kind to my daughter. She helped my daughter improve her tone quality and made her a better flute player. I trust Indigo to do what’s best for my child. ”
“Indigo is always patient during lessons, and I know I took lots of patience. She is a good teacher and explains things in a simple way I can understand. Indigo is very nice and plays the flute very well. I think she is my favorite flute teacher. ”

“I have truly enjoyed having Indigo as my flute instructor. She always checked in on how I was doing whether it was flute related or not. She helped me improve in the technical aspects of playing the flute which I had previously struggled with. And I have come to love practicing and playing on my own because of her!”
“Indigo is very encouraging as an instructor. Our daughter never felt pressured in a bad way that made her want to not practice or play her flute, and that’s a testament to Indigo’s passion for teaching and great attitude while dealing with students. Excited to see how she succeeds in the future.”
