Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hello! My name is Brooke Schrager and I am the founder and studio manager of Lessons By Brooke & Company. We provide customized, in-home, private music lessons to students of all interests, ages, and ability levels.

I went to school for Music Education, thinking I would teach music and/or choir in a public school setting. I was lucky enough to land what I thought was my dream public school job in 2014. After teaching for 2 years, I realized I was not happy in this position, and decided to pursue the aspects of my career that brought me the most joy - 1:1 time with young piano and voice students that truly wanted to learn and grow as musicians. In December of 2015, I started offering private lessons to friends and family.

In January 2016, I had 10 students taking lessons with me on a weekly, recurring basis. By March of 2016, I had an additional 20 students on a waiting list and I was able to give notice at my public school job.
