For beginning students who are children, I typically start with the Suzuki Method and playing by ear. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire on sheet music appropriate for their level of performance. It is important to stress the fundamentals of technique for my beginner students before just playing music. I like to incorporate music theory within their lessons, so not only are they able to hear a piece of music and can start playing but can also read sheet music that is put in front of them.

So, I started studying with Juilliard Graduate and one of the original members of the Amernet String Quartet, Professor Marcia Littley, to continue my violin studies and pursue my minor in Music.

My goal as a violin instructor is not only to solely teach music, but to also cultivate a love for music in the hearts of my students. My lessons will be a safe space where we can express ourselves through music, free of rigid expectations and at the pace of the learner. Both the teacher and student will work together to set achievable goals each lesson. As a fellow individual who also lives in this busy world, I understand the many demands that life makes of us, and I aim to provide lessons that both promote growth and a passion for violin.
