Private Lessons

At Brandeis, we highly encourage our students to sign up for private lessons. We have developed an extensive private lesson program for the benefit of our orchestra members.  We strongly encourage you to consider this option.

We have screened all of our private teachers and we believe that they are excellent teachers and musicians.
Private lessons are scheduled by each individual teacher and meet before, during, or after school in the practice rooms or the orchestra room.  Lessons are given once a week.  Please feel free to reach out to them to schedule lessons
