About Me
My name is Jenny Bendelstein and I am a local flute teacher in Chicago. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Flute from Northwestern University, and I have been teaching flute for 8 years.
I am currently accepting students at my studio, Chicago Flute Academy.
My teaching style is warm, caring, and patient. Some of my students have described me as very friendly yet demanding with material and technique! I strive to build a solid foundation of tone, technique, and musicality in each student.
I love helping my students reach their goals and have fun with music. Every week we will work on a new and exciting pieces, prepare for recitals, and work on how to be a great performer and musician.
For more information you can visit the studio website!
It's great to "meet" you, and I hope to hear from you soon!
Best regards,
Ms. Jenny

Jenny has been a wonderful teacher for my 10 yr old son. He is new to the flute and Jennifer has shown much kindness and patience with him throughout each lesson. She has also been quite inventive in helping motivate him to practice more (I admit to being hands-off about practice since I didn’t want to have any other elements in our life to argue about). Our son also participates in a school band and we were quite touched that Jennifer took the time to attend our school band concert. She has a true enthusiasm for music and she brings that generosity to her lessons. You’d be lucky to have her as a teacher.
