Hi! I'm Jaewoo, a full-time professional trombonist with the Toledo Symphony Orchestra. I have years of experience private teaching brass players and theory students of many ages, and I hope to help you or your child improve their playing and broaden their musical horizons! Through my experience teaching students from elementary school through adults, I've learned how to communicate concepts to others, how to teach effectively, and how to help others fully understand their music. I hope to teach you and apply these skills so that you can reach your full potential as musicians as well as human beings.

As well as the Toledo Symphony, I've also won positions in the Kalamazoo, South Bend, and Adrian symphonies, and I've performed with numerous Midwest orchestras in my career. My education began at Baylor University, where I received my Bachelor's degree in Trombone Performance, and then continued at Indiana University, where I received my Master's degree.

I've tutored music theory students in elementary, middle school, and high school; one of the most common requests I receive is for AP Music Theory tutoring, and I have extensive experience preparing students for the multiple choice, free response, and sight singing portions of the exam. I also received a 5 on it myself! Furthermore, I've also tutored music majors and non majors at both the undergraduate and graduate levels with their assignments in music theory, aural skills, sight singing, and music history.

If you would like to set up lessons or ask me for further information, just shoot me a message! I am willing to do online lessons, and I can connect a high quality mic to my laptop so that the student can hear and imitate my sound. Thank you so much and hope to hear from you soon!

Extreamly helpful!

I was totally lost in my college music theory course and Jaewoo was able to break everything down step by step until I understood what to do. I watched tons of YouTube videos and read everything available online and still didn't understand, so I looked for a tutor and am super happy that I found him.

In just one lesson, Jaewoo was able to re-spark an interest in the trombone for my son. He is extremely patient and knowledgeable. Additionally, Jaewoo is always happy to repeat his explanation behind the material he is teaching. My son really enjoyed learning from him and we look forward to continuing our instruction with him on a regular basis.
