I love to share my love for music with not only my student's but as well family members. I teach mostly based on the Suzuki Method.

I believe that learning an instrument must be taught from all three approaches: tactile, aural, and visual.

I use the Suzuki books, a reliable source for musical progress, as well as some American fiddlin' tunes from the O'Connor Method Books. Read More
