Welcome to the Studio!
About
Dr. Clements has been teaching privately since 2010 and is currently welcoming new students of all ages and levels! She is on faculty at Harmony Project Phoenix and All-Saints' Music School in Phoenix and also offers lessons through Desert Ridge High School in Gilbert, Mountain Ridge High School in Glendale, in-home lessons in South Scottsdale, and online lessons on ZOOM or Skype. Dr. Clements is always eager to share music throughout the community and is available for master classes, sectional teaching, or chamber music coaching.
Teaching Philosophy
Music is a unique discipline that encompasses many subjects and teaches invaluable lessons such as discipline, respect, critical thinking skills and self confidence. Ultimately, it is a form of human expression unlike any other. My goal is to provide a positive environment for my students to excel in learning and discover their musical potential through the beauty of their instrument.
A Typical Lesson
Lessons focus on the specific needs and interests of each individual student. A typical lesson will address quality sound production and technical proficiency; etudes and exercises; solo and chamber music; music fundamentals and foundations of music theory; and engaged listening.

Private Lessons
Private lessons offer the opportunity to learn one-on-one through a customized approach for each individual. I strive to help students connect to their instrument on a deeper level by expanding their playing through tone production, technical studies, and repertoire of all kinds.
Woodwind Coaching and Clarinet Choir
Dr. Clements coaches woodwinds for the Phoenix Youth Symphony and the Metropolitan Youth Symphony of Arizona. Currently, she is the director of the clarinet choir at Mountain Ridge High School.
Master Classes
Dr. Clements has presented master classes for Glendale Community College, the Minnesota Clarinet Academy, Brophy College Preparatory, Harmony Project Phoenix, and many others.
Virtual Lessons and Workshops
During March 2020, Dr. Clements began offering private lessons to many students online and has continued the virtual options for students who prefer to study from the comfort and safety of their own home. Please feel free to contact me about online options for private lessons.
