Request for Question Clarification by markj-ga on 25 Apr 2004 07:39 PDT

dis -- 

I have found two recorder teachers in Nassau County that appear to be
soliciting new students, including adult beginners.  However, one of
them is in Port Jefferson Station and the other does not include a
more specific address within Nassau County (e-mail and/or phone
contact information is available for both).  I have also found one
classically trained mandolin teacher (with e-mail contact
information), but she is in West Islip and her listing does not
mention whether she takes adult beginner students.

Are you interested only in teachers located in Oyster Bay, as your
question implies, or are you willing to cast a somewhat wider net?

Any instructor who is willing to travel to Oyster Bay

Thanks for your clarification.  Since I have reached a dead end in
finding teachers in Oyster Bay, I am posting as a comment links to
contact information for two Nassau County recorder teachers and one
mandolin teacher who might (or might not) be willing to travel to
Oyster Bay.  You may wish to contact any or all of them to determine
their willingness to do so and at what rate.

The first recorder teacher candidate is Jodi Kokila Bennett, and here
is a link to her listing as a teacher of, among other things, the
baroque recorder.  Note that she says that she will "travel . . .  to
the student's home depending on location or they come to my studio."

Here is a link to telephone contact information for another Nassau
County recorder teacher, Rachel Begley.  The coding on her listing
entry indicates that she will accept adult beginner students.  She is
in Port Jefferson Station, New York, which is 37 miles from Oyster
Bay.  These listings are arranged in numerical order by zip code.  To
find Ms. Begley, scroll down to "11776":

Finally, here is a listing from one classical mandolin teacher,
Antonina Nigrelli.  Ms. Nigrelli is located in West Islip, New York,
which is 24 miles from Oyster Bay:

I hope that this information leads you to a suitable teacher.  If it
does, let me know, and I will be happy to post this information as an
answer to your question.
