Educated at the University of Maryland, he studied improvisation, composition and music history.

Years of Experience: 3 Location Options: In Studio, In Home, In Webcam Travel Radius: 20 Genres: Blues, Jazz, Classical Age Groups: Children, Young Adult, Adult Instruments Taught: Orchestral Lessons Overview: I'm a relaxed guy that knows when to get down to business and when business should be fun. I try and create lasting bonds with the people I meet and hope to improve the lives of others along the way. I aspire to be an architectural engineer, but I also plan to always have the saxophone as a hobby. Formal Education: I will be a senior cone August in the international baccalaureate magnet program at university Highschool and I have a gpa of 5.1 and class rank 20 of 700. I've maintained all As all my life and know how important school is. Private Education: I've taken saxophone lessons on the record for 3 years and off the record with a good friend Patrick Manser (the best alto player in the state) for 3 more. I've never needed tutoring in my subjects but I have tutored many times over. Performing Experience: I've been in a band program for 6 years now and joined marching band the last 3 of those. I've been performing for as long as I can remember and I started jazz my second year and have been rocking solos ever since. I also won a speech contest in 4th grade but at this point you should know that I don't back down from a stage.

Body: Nathan is the perfect candidate for a teaching position. Above his knowledge and skills, Nathan demonstrated patience and kindness when teaching my nephew Manny. Name: Oswald Thomas Date: 2017-07-10 19:36:10 Title: Teacher of Mathematics Body: It is with great honor and pleasure that I am writing this letter on behalf of Nathan. I have known Nathan for the past two years, and I’m privileged to have been his teacher of mathematics for those two years. I have observed during this time a very unique young man with excellent manners, good academic ability, and strong leadership skills. Nathan is only a junior who has been able to become an outstanding figure here at University High School. He strove to earn the respect of both the faculty and the students by portraying a positive attitude and establishing himself as an outstanding role model. He has risen to become a strong leader for his peers and has achieved academically as well. As a student in my class, Nathan is always taking on challenging assignments, even when he doesn’t receive any credit for these assignments. He usually can be found reading, studying, or helping his fellow students, when he is not too busy doing tedious algebraic calculations. It is with this attitude and through his perseverance that he has attained such a high level of success. In his academics he strives to gain the respect of his teachers and put the best effort possible into his work. Many students have failed to reach their inner potential while Nathan has soared to establish himself among the best that UHS has to offer. This type of maturity and dedication is an attribute to Nathan’s ranking as one of the top students in our International Baccalaureate Program. Nathan has also participated in many academic, civic, athletic, and social groups within our school and the community. It is through his membership in these groups and his role as a leader that he helped to shape the scholastic climate for University High School. Nathan has completed many community service hours through various community service projects and service learning as part of IB and graduation requirements. While doing these projects he executed his responsibilities in a very mature and professional manner. Please accept my recommendation for Nathan to work in your establishment; I believe that he will be an asset to any institution, organization, firm, or business that gives him the opportunity to demonstrate the qualities alluded to above. Nathan is a gentleman in the making; I am honored to be his teacher!!
