I do not teach with one method but what the student needs or requests. It is not what I want but what the student wants.

Every student is unique and has different needs as well. Read More

Instruments: Violin

My beginners generally start with the "All For Strings" series to obtain the basic elements of violin playing. This curriculum provides students with virtually every phase of beginning through intermediate string study. I introduce solo repertoire that matches the musical interest of each student. I also guide my intermediate students through study of their current Middle School or High School orchestral repertoire. With adults, I endeavor to combine their tastes and interests with musical literature that is fun and sustains interest such as Mazas and Viotti duets. Read More

I've been teaching private music lessons since I first started college in 2004.

I encourage students to draw from many genres of music, and not limit themselves to one style or method of playing. Read More
