Violin Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Violin

My style is light and cheery - I make the kids feel important and I acknowledge their progress regularly. I am not a knuckle-rapping teacher. Discipline comes naturally out of a love of learning and I notice when they are practicing and let them know and that induces more and continuous practicing. I don't guilt-trip them if they don't - I use a "try to do more or better this week" approach if they have a low practice amount last week! Read More

I use the Rubank Method for beginning, intermediate, and advanced clarinet and Saxophone. This series emphasizes the simple concepts to the advanced fundamentals, i.e. rhythm, articulation, breath support, fingerings. The lesson plans are incorporated in the Rubank Method with an easy progression through the fundamental starting with whole notes, half notes, quarter notes and simple to complex rhythms. For the advanced clarinet student the Rose 32 Etudes are an essential addition to the lessons as well as the Klose Method. Read More

My experience teaching goes back to high school. I began teaching over 10 years ago, and have been teaching students in my home studio ever since! I enjoy teaching students of all ages and all levels. I have experience teaching students with disabilities as well, and I can accommodate those needs. I approach each student a little differently, since the needs vary from student to student. I really like to encourage my students to learn in many different ways, and this motivates my students, and makes playing the violin fun! Read More
