Viola Lessons California

Instruments: Guitar, Violin, Viola

My teaching style is fun, intriguing, and never boring nor dry. I believe that music lessons should never feel like a shore, instead they should stimulate your brain! I want all of my students to be able to ask questions without them feeling shy. Music is magical and intangible which means we can only feel it through our ears, soul, and heart, and that's why I teach my students to be able to appreciate music the best they can through my teaching methods.

I am very flexible with the students I work with. Depending on how you learn best, I will adapt to your needs. I can teach through the use of books (such as the Suzuki Method, John Thompson, etc) but I am also an advocate for learning by ear, transcribing and chord charts. I am also a great transcriber and arranger. With that, I am able to adjust any song to any difficulty for the students I work with. Read More

I received my Bachelors of Music in violin performance from the University of Redlands. I will be starting school in July to receive my Masters in music education from Longy School of music. I have always wanted to teach and it is important for my students to enjoy the love of music. I feel it is important to perform as well so they understand that I still need to work hard to stay a strong musician. Read More

And usually Faber Piano Adventures for young piano students. Eventually going to Clementi Sonatinas and Chopin Preludes. Also Mel Bay Modern Guitar for beginning rock/jazz guitarists. Then eventually going to Mickey Bakers Jazz Guitar books. Read More
