Lessons | Morgan Bates

I offer private trumpet instruction and fundamental and aural music theory lessons to students and community members in Los Angeles and throughout Southern California. I am also available for lessons over Zoom or Skype.

I am open to any and all ages, ability levels, and instructional needs. My teaching style engages justice- and trauma-informed practices with an emphasis on student-led performance endeavors. Additionally, I have extensive experience in teaching individuals with disabilities and transgender, gender nonconforming, and non-binary students. If you have any questions about my teaching philosophy, please do not hesitate to consult with me at any time.

I charge $35 per half hour and $50 per hour paid by cash, check, Apple Pay, Zelle, or Venmo at the time of the lesson.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns; I address payment on a case-by-case basis and am more than willing to consult with you about affordability and variable payment options. Ask me about my student discounts!
