I have created my own materials for practice on note names. The next area that I will introduce is rhythm. I have created my own materials for practice on that area as well. We will learn songs using the three and five finger patterns for right and left hand. Read More

Instruments: Violin

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Suzuki. Once the student has progressed to have a gasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lesson engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I believe that learning music has to be an enjoyable process so students can be inspired to practice and excel at playing their violin. Read More

So, my students actually grow at an accelerated rate. If you can show students that you believe in them, the sky is truly the limit for any student. Read More
