Violin Lessons Mountain

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Keyboard

I began teaching lessons at age 14 to young neighborhood beginners. As I progressed through the years, I expanded my range of student ability from beginner to upper intermediate, and from ages 6 to... well, older than me and I'm now 60! I have taught hundreds of students and enjoyed every one of them. I find that the more effort, especially in consistent and efficient practice (to be explained and demonstrated by me), that my students put in, the more pleasure and satisfaction they get out of it!

I am a passionate teacher who absolutely loves working with students and sharing my love of music! I started violin when I was just 5 years old, and I have been playing ever since! I have been trained in Classical music since I started playing, and I have played in many orchestras and quartets. Performing has been one of the greatest joys and learning experiences in my life! I have been blessed with many opportunities to perform with and learn from some of the greatest musicians in the country, and the world! Read More

Some of my earliest memories are from learning how to read music. I've been involved in piano and violin for most of my life, beginning both early in elementary school. I studied privately for roughly ten years under various instructors while in school. My instruction consisted mostly of solo performance pieces, but I was fortunate to be able to enjoy many years in the Idaho Falls Youth Symphony as well as experience the Idaho All-State Orchestra and the Teton Chamber Orchestra.

I am a very flexible teacher and have experice with students at all different paces. I like to set realistic goals for my students and keep them motivated. It is very important to me that my students feel like they are succeding in music and excited about playing music. I believe a good way of doing that is to acknowledge their accomplishments and to praise their progress. Read More

It's my goal to teach in a way that relates to the individual student and their goals. I spend time focusing on at what stage each student is at, in the accomplishment of their goals. Encouragement and patient accomplishment are important aspects of my lessons. I teach the importance of being patient with one's self and keeping focus on goals at hand. I believe we can teach and learn better in a very caring, supportive environment and that each student has the ability to achieve their individual goals! Read More
