I have an associate degree in the arts, with emphasis in music. All throughout high school I studied, piano, voice and violin. I began private teaching on the violin when I was 16 years old and it was then, that I realized what a privilege it was to teach and watch my young summer students excel and then play in the youth orchestra at the end of the summer. This experience was so very rewarding and I knew that I wanted to teach music privately. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I start with Essential Method Book for Strings. Once the students has progressed more, I use Suzuki Method books, and also, choose (introduce) solo pieces for recital performance. For adults, I find out what the student is interested in and find the book that fits their interest (and guide my instruction accordingly to engage them). Easy pop melodies book or other genres violin sheets will be also fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I began teaching privately in 2006 after I graduated from college. I began teaching in my church in New York, to beginner students between the ages of 8 and 15. I continued teaching until 2010, when I began my Master's Degree. I found that by finding out similar interests between myself and the students outside of classical music made it enjoyable for them. I would also give my students a lot of encouragement and sometimes rewards for their hard and diligent work. Read More
