Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Violin, Fiddle, Music

Almost all of my experience as a musician has been as a performer of music and as a student of music. The process of collaborative music making at heart is teaching and learning. I enjoy learning my part, and take responsibility for guiding others when appropriate, with the goal of a good experience and stirring performance. I have had only a few private paying music students, and I have not taught music in a classroom setting. Read More

I hold four degrees in violin performance and have been teaching for nineteen years. I have worked with students ages 2-adult. I have trained students to be professional violinists and worked with countless beginners and amateurs. I enjoy working with all ages and levels. I teach a mixture of Traditional and Suzuki Methods. I introduce note reading at the beginning of lessons even with young children. I often work from several books at a time focusing on pieces, scales and etudes. Read More

All lesson plans are centered around each individual student, their interests, and skill level. All students will learn different etudes that foster technical development and support their solo repertoire. For students that are less experienced they will work out of the Essentials for Strings series. Other early string series books can be considered if already purchased by the student. More advanced students will use the Kreutzer etudes. Beginning to Intermediate students will typically choose solo repertoire from the Suzuki series, but are welcome to suggest anything they want to learn. Read More

I have had a lifetime of performing, recording, teaching music! I studied piano, then violin, then became a singer songwriter in the 80's and 90's. I have performed at weddings, bars, nightclubs, conferences and churches. I began teaching in the 2000's and have enjoyed passing on the skills and the experience of learning music to my students. I am fun, I relate to kids well, and I am devoted to raising their self esteem by praising their accomplishments. Read More

Open-minded and flexible, Nerea strives for her students to learn through fun, hands on activities, always leaving her lessons with smiles on their faces. Beginner students are always taught the basics of posture, positioning and how to move the bow on the strings.

Although Nerea focuses on technique, she always tries to get her student play songs/musical pieces quickly, even if they are simple. Read More
