Viola Lessons South

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Viola

I have been teaching for years and I am so proud I had a chance to teach back in my country, in Finland and currently in the states. I do not have a specific method of teaching and sharing my knowledge m, as I think, as a teacher you find a new approach once you get a new student. Everyone is different. How they learn, have fun or feel comfortable can be different from one another. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola

I started teaching while in High School some 12 years ago. Gradually my studio has built up and is generally in the 20-30 student range, generally where I like it. I've taught privately in people's homes, in my own studio, for local music studios, and online. In these many years I've found teaching to be as much if not more enjoyable than performing. Instead of showing others my love of music I get to instill it in my students. Read More

I have been teaching for about 10 years now, both privately and in various music lesson stores throughout the Tampa Bay area. I have taught students ranging from 5 to 60 years of age. My students have been accepted into Blake Performing Arts High School, All County Orchestras, Tampa Bay Youth Orchestras, Tampa Metropolitan Youth Orchestras, and even Florida's All State Orchestras. I have also been able to develop my students' abilities from being last in their orchestras to first chair in their music programs. Read More

For beginning students, I typically start with Suzuki Book 1. A strong foundation is key to playing the violin/viola. I do teach the Suzuki method, but I understand that method of teaching does not work for all students--one size does not fit all. I believe all students have the innate ability to learn an instrument despite their background. I find the Suzuki books provide a strong foundation with the ability to play full songs from the start.

My name is Hank, and I recently graduated from Loyola University New Orleans with a Bachelor's degree in Music Education. My primary instrument is the piano, but I also play all string instruments (violin, viola, cello, bass, guitar) as well as the trombone. I have always had a passion for teaching, and I was recently hired as the general music teacher at the International School at Gregory. I would love to have the opportunity to share my knowledge and passion for music with you! Read More
