Amanda has been tutoring my daughter on the flute since the beginning of the school year and the results are unbelievable. My daughter has gained confidence in her playing, loves the lessons, and feels very comfortable with the style and direction that Amanda provides. I would highly recommend her as a music instructor and I think she is a terrific individual overall.

Amanda's has a wonderful ability to capture the attention of her students and make learning fun. I have enjoyed being able to work with the fine young men and women that she teaches. It is evident that she has a Natural ability to teach for you can see that in the performances of her groups.
