Viola Lessons in Riverside, IL

Instruments: Violin Viola

I mainly teach the Suzuki method, especially for beginner/intermediate players. After Book 5, I tend to use conservatory repertoire such as technique books ( Sevcik, Hrimaly), Scale Books, Etudes, and concertos. When it comes to keeping my students interested, I try to find songs that my students are interested in learning. I find those songs according to their level and the technique I want to teach them and then move on from there. Read More

I find the learning process to be so fun as an educator, as I believe we learn life skills through challenge, goal setting, and accomplishments.

Each lesson is tailored to my individual student and I help them progress at his or her own pace. Read More
