Private lessons are a wonderful way to increase the playing ability of your student. They are not required, but they are certainly encouraged. If you are already involved in private lessons outside of school, you do not need to switch to an LISD private teacher. In private lessons, a teacher helps students focus on instrument-specific techniques, solos, exercises, and more, at an accelerated and individualized pace. Students who practice and take private lessons are usually leaders in Orchestra.
We have approved LISD private lesson teachers who have undergone fingerprinting and background checks. Times for lessons will be coordinated with private teachers. Communication is done directly between parents and private teachers. If you have questions or concerns about private lessons, you may contact Mrs. Wang at wangm@lisd.net.

Harp Lessons
We are the ONLY middle school in the district that offers harp as a secondary instrument in addition to their string instrument! Harp lessons are $35 for 30 minute lessons a week with a private harp instructor. The lessons are designed to be exploratory in nature and are not graded. Students do not need to own a harp--we own a harp at school that students sign up to practice at designated times. Students must be enrolled in Orchestra on a string instrument to take harp lessons. Please use the form below to sign up for lessons on harp.
