Instruments: Violin Music

My teaching style focuses on each student as an individual. I do not believe in making the student look or play exactly like me in terms of technique or style. I am kind, energetic, and engaging, but I can also be strict if it is required in order to meet the student's goals. I like to make learning and lessons exciting because it keeps the student engaged and inspired. Although students can expect clarity and consistency in terms of what is expected from me, I will never deliver my lessons in an exclusive way. Read More

I believe it is important that beginning students who do not know how to read music yet stay out of the books at first. Reading music and trying to hold the instrument correctly, having bow control, and paying attention to tone can be overwhelming. The first few lessons will be book free. Once I feel the student is able to read notes, we will begin in Hal Leonard's Essential Elements which also comes with a CD for easy at home practicing. Read More

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
