About the Lesson

I believe that music education should be positive, engaging, and inspiring. I am committed to delivering high-quality instruction in a professional and friendly environment, customizing lessons to your individual needs. My goal is to foster a love for the violin in my students while helping them build confidence, discipline and passion.

My teaching approach combines a foundation in classical technique with a diverse range of musical styles including folk, pop, and others. I incorporate Suzuki Method but supplement with other schools of pedagogy. During our lessons, we will work on various aspects of violin playing, including proper posture, bowing technique, hand positions, intonation, vibrato, sight-reading, music theory, and interpretation. I believe in fostering a well-rounded musician, so we will also explore music history, musicality, and performance skills to enhance your overall musical understanding and expression.

 

Each lesson is thoughtfully structured to suit your skill level and personal goals. We will typically start with scales and etudes to study assorted technical topics before moving on to pieces and repertoire. At the end, I clearly outline the assignment for the week and give detailed instruction for efficient and effective daily practice.
