Finding a teacher (in Toronto)

[andy957]

I'm looking for a new teacher in Toronto, and was wondering where if anywhere on this board I can begin a thread aimed at teachers who might visit this board. Otherwise, is there a way to find a list, or, better yet, a recommendation here? I've been through three teachers already, none of them really providing what I'm looking for.

I see at the home page of Fluteland.com a link for "Teachers", and what appears to be a link for "Find a teacher outside of the US" but that it is not clickable.

I'm not an NFA member (yet) so I don't think I have access to their resources.

Here is a flute player/teacher I know in Toronto named Bill McBirnie. If he cannot help you, I am sure he can refer you to someone who can.

Thanks much, Phineas. However, he seems to be mostly a jazz player and I'm looking for classically-trained (he may very well be classically trained) so I'm not sure he'd be a good fit.

Oh, he is classically trained alright. Most flute players that are not sax doublers are(Including myself!). If he cannot help you, and am sure he knows someone who can. Just drop him an email and see. Could not hurt.

And even some flute players who are sax doublers are classicly trained in flute, like me
