While being able to play the \r\nbeginning book fairly well, my trumpet-playing mind just couldn't get \r\nover the hump to be a successful teacher of flutes. Then I was \r\nintroduced to the Pneumo pro. After a short training period I am amazed \r\nnot only at my own ability to play more effectively, but more \r\nimportantly, at getting my flute players to play with a consistent tone \r\nquality in both low and high registers. They handle the instrument much \r\nmore confidently, and with such beautiful tone for beginners! I'm \r\ntotally sold on the Pneumo pro. Even a trumpet-playing band director can\r\n successfully teach beginning flute players using it. \u003cbr\u003eBret Deardorff–Indiana band director\r\n\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThanks! The pneumo pro is great! It has opened up my beginners sound greatly.\r\n Mike Ellis, Tascosa H. S. Band\r\n\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\" Yesterday we were using it with the Faure Fantasie where there are a\r\nlot of octave jumps. My student was going flat on the high notes. When\r\nI had her 'play' it on the pneumo pro, it became obvious that she\r\nthought she was changing the air direction, but nothing was actually\r\nhappening. Once she could change the air direction correctly from the\r\nlowest wheel to the third wheel for the jumps, it took a while to\r\ngradually increase the speed. I wish I had made a video of the huge\r\nchange once she began making the correct adjustments on the flute.\" KB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe\r\n Pneumo Pro is the most incredible teaching tool I have ever used!!!!! I\r\n have had 100 percent success with this tool with fixing tonguing and \r\nembouchure problems on some of my students. One student, I was at a \r\nloss, I couldn’t find a way to fix her tonguing problems; within 10 \r\nminutes of using the Pneumo Pro I had figured out exactly what the \r\nproblem was and fixed it. Every teacher should have this tool in their \r\nstudio. Sincerely, Susan Fritts Flute teacher, Raleigh, NC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This \r\nunique and ingenious teaching tool makes sense for getting positive \r\nresults. You can actually visualize the direction of the air stream and \r\nkinesthetically experience proper air direction. Ricky Lomabardo band \r\ndirector Princeton, New Jersey\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI am very pleased and impressed with the method. I looks like my\r\n new students are going to have a great start in their playing and \r\nthey'll enjoy working with the Pneumo Pro, which is an ingenious device.\r\n Thanks for inventing it! Pam Irwin-private flute instructor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Thank\r\n you so much for these wonderful devices! I am having much success with \r\nmy slower students that could not produce much of a sound at all. Now \r\nthey are progressing rapidly and should move out of the beginning flute \r\nto the intermediate band. I am very pleased and they are thrilled!\" Adan\r\n Diaz, flute teacher Oak Park Elementary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"The difference with my\r\n beginners from this year and last year, is like night and day. I can't \r\nbelieve how good their tone is with the help of the Pneumo Pro!\" Texas \r\nBand director\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI thought the entire package was done beautifully with great \r\nclarity in the teaching points on embouchure and tone. The students used\r\n in the production add a lot from the student viewpoint. This video \r\nwould make and excellent supplement to whichever band method book is \r\nused, and would be particularly useful for the band teacher who is not a\r\n flutist to use with his\/her students and help them get an excellent \r\nstart. I plan to use the tape in my woodwind techniques class.\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 69, 0);\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Steve Pratt Associate director of Bands Indiana University\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"My\r\n daughter started using the Pneumo Pro about a year after starting the \r\nflute. The improvement in her tone has been outstanding! Not only do we \r\nnotice, but competition judges have also praised the beauty of her \r\ntone.\" Lynne Lawson-parent\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e I bought the Pneumo Pro after reading\r\n complementary messages on the flute list. I was most curious about it, \r\nsince it seemed that it might answer a long-standing question of \r\nmine-\"How do I know where my air stream is going?\"...I initially had a \r\nhard time directing the air stream downwards enough to spin the lowest \r\npropeller. This led me to examine my embouchure...my sound immediately \r\nimproved, and best of all, a reduction in the amount of air required to \r\nget that sound. I am hardly a newcomer to flute, having blown on one for\r\n over twenty years, including a lot of amateur chamber music sessions. \r\nI've known for a long time that I still had much to learn, \r\nembouchure-wise. The Pneumo Pro provided a very quick and graphic lesson\r\n for me, with immediate results. Even my teacher was much impressed with\r\n the new sound at today's lesson. amateur flutist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"\r\n\r\n ...I am very impressed! In fact, I think it's fantastic!
