Private Lessons
We are very fortunate here at Victory Lakes Intermediate to offer private lessons for every band instrument! We have a FANTASTIC private lesson staff who are specialists at their instruments and have dedicated their time to perfecting their performance skills and teaching their respective instruments. Some of our private lesson teachers have graduate and doctoral degrees in music, have made professional recordings, and perform professionally in symphony orchestras!

- You can sign up for lessons using the form above. Please send it with your student or email to Mr. Parsons ([email protected]). Remember to include the $10 yearly enrollment fee.
- This school year, lessons are offered BOTH in person & on-line. Please visit with your lessons teachers to find the right one for your family.
- We highly recommend private lessons for all students! Private lessons are in no way a form of remediation or tutoring. In fact, we expect and encourage our most skilled band students to take private lessons. The teachers meet students where they are & help them get to the next level of playing.
- A private lesson is a one-on-one session (generally 25-30 minutes) with a specialist on your child's instrument. They are weekly. Some students have their private lessons at school during their band class, although some occur before or after school. Payments are made directly to the teachers.
- Private lessons are not like tutoring, in which only students who are struggling take them. This can be true for some, but the vast majority of students take private lessons to get ahead. Their instructor will give them practice strategies, techniques, goals, and exercises that are specific to their needs, ability, and interest.
- Financial assistance may be available for those who qualify. Please contact Mr. Parsons ([email protected]) for more information.
