I like to begin the first lesson by recognizing the students strengths by having them show me what they can accomplish on their own. There are specific books that I like to teach out of depending on the skill level so that needs to be addressed during the first lesson. Recognizing and building on strengths to me should come before criticising weaknesses. Those will be addressed as they come along and exercises with scales and etudes will be chosen for those weaknesses, but that does not mean that challenging music needs to be played each and every time so that the student has to struggle for greatness.

My students have won Regionals and All-State Orchestra auditions. Lessons with me will include technical exercises and scales with a focus on proper bow arm and left hand posture as well as learning to play musical pieces and learning about the history behind them.
