Also performing in concerts gives them goals to work for so I try to have my students to perform at some assisted living places and more several times a year and the more they perform usually the better they improve. It can be encouraging to see that others make mistakes too and that noone is perfect. I like students to learn how to read as soon as they can, but I honor the suzuki idea that it is good to learn to play the first few pieces by ear so listening does not get lost in learning to read.

I’ve been playing violin and viola for nearly twenty years and I love to share my passion for music with others. I’ve played in symphonies, string quartets, musicals, jazz bands, operas, and even rock shows. I have both a bachelors and a masters in music performance, but I still like making time in my life for my other interests- I love to hike, draw, and make lace! In addition to teaching and performing, I also love to compose. Read More

I want my students to have fun and be able to be inspired to learn and create. I know that everyone learns their way and I do believe myself accommodating and understanding. Learning to read, write, and play music is essentially learning another language and having taught languages for several years, I know people move at different paces. I encourage my students to maintain a detailed practice log, and to explore and create during daily practices whilst also working towards goals established during our sessions. Read More
