My teaching experience began when I was very young. At the age of 15 I started my private studio out of my parent's basement. Within two year's I had a full studio with 20+ students. I worked with those students and in another studio while completing my Bachelor's Degree. I will begin my 17th year of teaching strings to inner city children in my local school district. Additionally, for the last five years I have had the pleasure of teaching very young students (ages 2-5) in a master class setting. Read More

For beginner students, I use the Essential Elements for strings (books 1 and 2). In conjunction with these books, I select a repertoire that corresponds with their current abilities, and work my way up from there. For adults and more advanced students, I use various technical studies such as Sevcik, Kreutzer, and Rode, and standard Rep using the International editions. Regardless of the age or skill level, I always strive to maintain constant engagement and motivation throughout my lessons, whether online or in person. Read More

I have been teaching for almost 20 years and have taught people as young as four years old to amateur adults, as well as from beginners to highly advanced pre-conservatory students, and people from all different backgrounds. Music is such a personal journey for each person, and my teaching philosophy is centered around what the student needs and wants. My ideal student is one who shows a daily devotion to the strengthening of necessary muscle groups, to students who are eager to learn and to try new things, and students who are motivated to accomplish goals that we set together!
