I have been teaching music lessons since I was a freshman in college, pursuing my violin performance degree. It has been over 7 years and my passion for teaching students of all different ages and backgrounds continues to grow. Over the years, I've taught over 40 different students; some were my own private students, and some I taught at institutions around New York City. Seeing students fall in love with playing the violin and do their best to improve warms my heart and the feeling never grows old. I'd love to have you on board for violin, viola, beginner piano, or music theory lessons.

I like to be flexible and change up my method depending on each student's needs and goals. Most of the time, I start beginners off with a book such as A Tune A Day, Suzuki Violin School, String Builder, or the Hal Leonard. I also provide other handouts with exercises and additional material. After some time, I like to introduce new etudes and pieces that suit their current level but also provide challenges to help them grow. I will curate their repertoire so that every piece learned gives them something new to take away. Adult students may have a more clear-cut goal of what they would like to learn or achieve, so I always work with the information they provide me and help them reach their goals. No matter the age of the student, I pride myself in being able to adapt and personalize their curriculum.
