Violin Lessons Leon County, TX

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola

For beginners  I like to start with the Suzuki Method. But I'm also familiar with other couple methods such as Essential Elements and Essential Techniques for strings book 1-3. In addition to follow a method book, I like to supplement some small pieces from other books as well as incorporate some of the pieces that the student want to learn. Once the student is in the intermediate to advanced level of playing, I like to use the String Basics Book, Carl Flesh Scale Book, Kayser's ,Schradieck, Dont,  Kreutzer's 42 Studies, among others a long with some solo repertoire.

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Violin, Accordion, Fiddle, Keyboard

My experience as a music teacher has been simply giving beginner lessons to friends on the violin, or giving others a few lessons on music theory and application in piano and accordion. I have a deep love for learning and progression, both in myself and in others, and so I enjoy even the tedious moments of a student's progression as a musician. As a self-taught musician, I know what it takes, in terms of discipline, practice, and study, to learn and excel at an instrument, and I enjoy passing what I have discovered on to others. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola

For beginning students,on violin, viola and cello, I work with the Essential Elements and Suzuki books (depending on the student). They offer a lot of practical information, as well as beginning music theory for all string students. For my beginning violin and viola students, I only work with them through Essential Elements book 3. At that time, I would refer them to a teacher who's primary instrument is violin. With my cello students, all levels are welcome. Read More

I teach a predominantly Suzuki as I learned with the Suzuki method and I am trained as a Suzuki instructor. I don't completely immerse my students with the Suzuki method and while learning how to play by ear, I teach students how to read music so that they are able to compose their own music. Read More

Instruments: Violin, Cello, Viola, Classical Guitar

I enjoy making my students as comfortable as possible while they learn. If a parent desires to stay with their student, they may. I also preach the importance of focused practice and focused lessons where we can much in a short amount of time. I believe in going at a pace that is right for the student. Some are incredibly quick to adapt and require more of a challenge. Some students take longer to understand and for them we would move at a modified pace. Read More
