Violin Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Violin, Viola

It's my goal to teach in a way that relates to the individual student and their goals. I spend time focusing on at what stage each student is at, in the accomplishment of their goals. Encouragement and patient accomplishment are important aspects of my lessons. I teach the importance of being patient with one's self and keeping focus on goals at hand. I believe we can teach and learn better in a very caring, supportive environment and that each student has the ability to achieve their individual goals! Read More

I have experience with a wide-range of children and can accommodate a variety of cognitive and emotional needs. However, I do teach all ages. My youngest student was 4, and my oldest was 72. I have been teaching violin since 2017. Every student's musical journey is unique and I work with their individual strengths to help them achieve their goals. I use a classical foundation to advance a student's skills, and I use other styles of music to keep students motivated. Read More

I use the Suzuki method for violin and the Alfred curriculum for piano. The Suzuki Method really focuses on the ability to train the ear first before reading music.

My teaching experience includes a wide range of topics, ages, and skill levels. In addition to private violin lessons I have taught music theory, aural skills, and conducted numerous orchestras. It is essential that my students don't only learn violin technique and repertoire, but all aspects of music in order to become well rounded musicians. In addition to a focus on solo repertoire my students are encouraged to participate in either a school of local ensemble and seek out performance opportunities. Read More
