About Miss Soltis
Welcome! My name is Brooke Soltis (Miss Soltis), and I am the owner and instructor at Soltis Music Studios. I have been teaching music, both in elementary schools and privately, since 2015, and I have been thrilled to teach in Bellingham, WA since 2022.
When I started teaching, I was teaching the way that I was taught. It got me to where I was, so I thought, "nothing wrong with that!" However, I started to realize that there were parts of the music world that were missing in my own lessons growing up.
Composing, improvising, pop music, jazz, chords, games, ear training, where were they?

Composing, improvising, pop music, jazz, chords, games, ear training, where were they?
I could read music, I could play a piece beginning to end as the composer had written, and I could play lots of scales in lots of different ways. However, there is so much more!
So I decided to bring those fantastic basics along and also incorporate all of the pieces that I felt were missing.
There's a big, wide, musical world out there, and I want my students to learn the skills to go exploring!
