I am a dedicated and passionate teacher who loves working with students to meet their goals. For the last 20 years music and performing has been my life. I began when I was a child studying the violin using the Suzuki method. Since that time I have had an eclectic music education and a variety of teachers that used many different pedagogical studies and theories to help me gain a well-rounded music education. Read More

I follow the Suzuki method for beginner students, with some additional instruction to learn to read sheet music for those with previous music experience or older students who are ready to begin reading music. After the student has completed the first several books of the Suzuki method, I include selections from Solos for Young Violinists and other solo pieces as appropriate to reinforce certain skills. Of course, when students show an interest in learning a particular piece, I am always happy to bring it into their repertoire. Read More

I am a very flexible teacher and have experice with students at all different paces. I like to set realistic goals for my students and keep them motivated. It is very important to me that my students feel like they are succeding in music and excited about playing music. I believe a good way of doing that is to acknowledge their accomplishments and to praise their progress. Read More

For young beginners, I use a lot of the Suzuki Method of teaching. Music games, pitch recognition and rhythms are all introduced as games during the lessons. My adults study from a combination of pieces, exercises, scales and duets. I think understanding the pieces you are playing is important so students learn how to recognize key signatures and time signatures. I have many students participate in school orchestra and youth orchestra programs so students are coached on how to prepare, how to audition and learn how to cope with nerves. Read More

I have fun with my students. They learn to play songs that they want to play, and I provide theoretical and technical instruction within that framework. Learning to play an instrument is a lifelong endeavor which provides both challenge and satisfaction. I'm an active listener and seek to understand each student's needs and goals. Education is a two-way street, and I learn from my students as they learn from me. Read More
