Private Lessons at Wester

All students have the opportunity to work weekly with a professional musician on their instrument.  This is a wonderful supplement to the classroom work
Misconception #1: "Private lessons are only for kids who are falling behind in class."
Truth: Private Lessons are designed to meet students at all playing levels.

Misconception #2: "We will wait to see if my child likes the instrument before we look into Private Lessons."
Truth: Most students who are in lessons will most likely continue on the instrument.
​

Private lessons are available for each band student.  As this is a supplemental program, it costs a little extra money to participate.  Private lessons are $20.00 per lesson and occur once a week.  Lesson schedules are set up by our private lesson staff for their individual studios.
Private Lesson Scholarships (for 1/2 cost per lesson) are available through our Booster Club.  If you would like to apply for a scholarship, please fill out the application and return it to a Director.
