Announcing The Music Den's Teacher Of The Month for September 2013 - Milanda Marshall
At The Music Den, we are proud of our teachers and their accomplishments. We want you to know a little about them so we are featuring one teacher each month. Congratulations to Milanda Marshall, our September 2013 featured "Teacher of the Month".
Milanda Marshall has been teaching at The Music Den for over 2 years and is a valued member of our team. She is a true professional in every sense of the word. Milanda offers a plethora of skills, teaching many different band instruments from trumpet, trombone, flute, alto and bari saxophone, clarinet, french horn, percussion, tuba, cello, violin, euphonium, guitar, and piano to her students.
What makes Milanda so unique is the ability to relate to each student whether they are 7 years old or an adult. She maintains a great rapport and provides encouraging and engaging instruction. Her communication skills are excellent and every student arrives excited to see her. Milanda's philosophy is to tailor each student's lesson to the individual needs employing sight-reading skills and compositional techniques. Technique is high on her list of priorities and performance ranks equally as important.
Milanda loves to create ensemble experiences for her students. Just recently, she put together a "pop band and singing ensemble" and had them on the stage at the Randolph Performing Arts Center performing songs for their friends and family. And this summer, she successfully co-directed our first Fine Arts Music Camp!
Milanda has also been teaching for over 15 years in the public school environment. Her current position is at the Valley Road School in Stanhope, NJ. She has extensive experience in coordinating both band and choral groups and offers private lessons to the students there and at her own personal studio.
