As stated before I will be graduating from Norfolk state in May 2018. Even though this will be my first instructor position, I have been the head section leader for the past few years.

Instruments: Violin, Viola, Electric Violin, Fiddle, Music

I have had students learn from me for a few years now ever since my high school years.

For beginner students or children, I typically start with bastien piano basic books and work our way through the books and fundamentals of music. Once they are ready, I will begin to introduce music they are more interested in and prepare for recitals or performance. For adults, I tend to gauge their interest levels and see what they want to accomplish through their lessons. Their learning is a little more dependent upon what they want to learn and accomplish in their time with me. Read More
