Violin Lessons Johnston County, NC

Instruments: Violin

This is made easy through my well laid-out organization of violin instruction and student practice. I have a series of charts by which the student, teacher, and parent (if applicable) can all easily understand, monitor, and assist the learning process. My goal/vision for my students: This summer, I have a definite vision for each of my students. I want each of them to acquire the foundational techniques that every violinist should have and that is lacking in most violin instruction today. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Viola, Synthesizer, Electric Violin, Fiddle

For beginning students, I typically start with Suzuki Book 1. A strong foundation is key to playing the violin/viola. I do teach the Suzuki method, but I understand that method of teaching does not work for all students--one size does not fit all.
