Instrumental Lessons

Saxophone, Clarinet, flute, piano, jazz/improvisation

"Jump Up Superstar" is a demo of all the instruments I teach.

I can customize most songs to match a student's experience level. I've done this for "The Pink Panther Theme" above.

Zach has been teaching for ten years at his private studio, the Paul Michael School of Music, and Music & Arts.  He is happy to accept students of all ages and skill levels for in-home lessons (Lafayette, IN) and online lessons.   Zach’s favorite things to teach include jazz and video game music, and he will personalize a curriculum to meet your needs as a student. He likes to make lessons more exciting by mixing educational materials with familiar games!

Instrumental studies: saxophone, clarinet, flute, and piano
Secondary subjects: music theory and analysis, jazz/improvisation, ear training, and composition.

Sliding scale lesson rates:

30 min $40-50*

45 min $55-65*

60 min $65-75*

+$5-12.50 travel fee for in-home lessons depending on distance

*Why do I use a sliding scale for my rates?

  • It is important to me that music lessons are accessible and not restricted by finances, and fixed rates can be prohibitive to some.

  • Sliding scale rates allow people to pay what is within their means.  A client who can afford a higher rate will make it possible for me to offer a lower rate to another – while still meeting my own financial needs.

If these prices don’t work for you, please send me a message and I will accommodate you if I have the capacity.  I understand that your situation might change during our time together, and I will work to be transparent with you about what I can accommodate.
