Violin Lessons Duval County, FL

Instruments: Violin, Viola

I like to begin the first lesson by recognizing the students strengths by having them show me what they can accomplish on their own. There are specific books that I like to teach out of depending on the skill level so that needs to be addressed during the first lesson. Recognizing and building on strengths to me should come before criticising weaknesses. Those will be addressed as they come along and exercises with scales and etudes will be chosen for those weaknesses, but that does not mean that challenging music needs to be played each and every time so that the student has to struggle for greatness.

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Viola

I am oriented to my students. I always try to start with their expectations and gradually add my advice to that, so that our lessons are your comfort zone where you feel safe and honest.

Cant wait to see your progress and plan next steps accordingly. Read More

I began teaching private violin lessons in high school and I have continued to teach ever since.

I’ve been an instructor with various additional community programs and a Teaching Artist with the Miami Music Project since 2015, leading ensemble classes, teaching sectionals and private lesson students.

I went back to school to study music at Florida Southern College in Lakeland Florida where I learned Voice and String Pedagogy. After graduating, I taught in the public school system for several years and left to establish my own private studio where I had almost 30 students at one time. Read More

I'm always looking for new methods of teaching in order to encourage a rapid and continued development of music skills. My goal is to make the students to play their first song right from the first lesson. First I teach them how to play the instrument and then the music theory. Yes you read well, first the kids start playing, and once they are happy and encourage you introduce the theory and technic studies. Read More
