Violin Lessons in Centerville, UT

Instruments: Violin Viola

Finding recordings on music apps or youtube can help to learn the piece in a different and fun way, because its an excuse to watch youtube! Besides scales, etudes, and pieces, I want to encourage my students to come to me with any questions about the music they are playing in their school music classes, orchestras, theory questions, and help with any technical instrument issues, like tuning, fixing strings, finding a good shoulder rest, how to rosin your bow and how much to tighten it.

Instruments: Piano Violin Keyboard

I began teaching lessons at age 14 to young neighborhood beginners. As I progressed through the years, I expanded my range of student ability from beginner to upper intermediate, and from ages 6 to... well, older than me and I'm now 60! I have taught hundreds of students and enjoyed every one of them. I find that the more effort, especially in consistent and efficient practice (to be explained and demonstrated by me), that my students put in, the more pleasure and satisfaction they get out of it!

Instruments: Violin Viola

Each person is different. Because of this, I always make sure each student is going at their own pace. At the beginning of the year, I sit down with each student and we set goals for our playing. I want students to feel motivated and inspired always, and to practice because they love it- not because they feel forced. I have competitions within the studios to motivate practicing, and talk about what we can do at home to make the violin/viola more fun. Read More

I grew up in a musical family from Idaho Falls, Idaho and began learning cello at age 7. That's when I fell in love with the cello!I studied under Dr. Rebecca Lyman for 6 years before attending BYU. I was the section leader for the Idaho Falls Youth Symphony, and currently am in the BYU Philharmonic Orchestra. I am passionate about health and fitness. I teach cycling classes at my local gym twice a week, enjoy weightlifting and even powerlifting! Read More
