My experience teaching the violin began in my junior year of high school in 2011; my orchestra teacher had me work with my fellow classmates by guiding sectionals, aiding them in practicing the repertoire that was played during class. After I graduated from high school, I started giving both in-person and online lessons to people wishing to pick up the violin or the viola. In order to strengthen their skills as musicians, I encourage all of my students to practice consistently in order to see the most improvement. Read More

For any student, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements series. This method book will help teach the basic fundamentals needed to progress on the instrument. For children, I will continue through the method book series while supplementing it with short popular pieces that may be of interest to the student. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep it fun and enjoyable. Read More

First lesson I start by assessing what level the student is at and what goals they have with their music and develop a lesson plan from there. I focus first on fundamentals of sound and technique to build a foundation for the student then work on scales and repertoire to get them playing music. From there it is a focus on musicality and performance. A lesson plan for example may be working on solo repertoire by breaking down the piece by focusing on different elements that make the song; the scale, they rhythm, certain patterns by measure, techniques required, etc. Read More
