Miss Tara Willgens

Hi! My name is Tara Willgens and I am the new Instrumental Music Teacher here at Belfast! I graduated from Fillmore Central in 2018, and then went onto SUNY Fredonia where I received my bachelor's degree in Music Education. My primary instrument is the Saxophone. One of my favorite things to do is perform in pit orchestras for local musicals. I also enjoy attending concerts. In fact, I rarely pass up a chance to listen to live music! Aside from music, during my free time I like to cook and bake, go on hikes, pet my dogs (I happen to have the cutest English Bulldog at home), and explore new places with my family. Although I don't watch much TV, I am a big Stranger Things fan. 

Here at Belfast, I am most excited for watching my students develop their skills and gain confidence on their instruments. I cannot wait to build positive and rewarding relationships with all my students. Here's to a new school year full of MUSIC!
