Violin Lessons Michigan

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

I typically start my students by learning the basics of the instrument (i.e. how it is made, basic care, how to hold, etc.). For younger students, or those who are not experienced with reading music, I start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. If they are learning their instrument in school as well, I like to work through any music given by their teacher. As my students progress, I like to supplement with music from various methods, or with any songs/pieces that they wish to learn. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Violin, Music, Keyboard

I am a teacher that advocates the necessity to understand music as well as instrument proficiency.

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Violin, Double Bass

I love transfering my love of music to students. I help them achieve their goals at a challenging, yet doable pace. When parts of the music are too difficult, I always break them down into their simplest possible parts.
