Instruments: Violin

I am a Venezuelan violinist who grew up in "El Sistema", which has let people learn to love music, and has given the opportunity to less resourceful kids to make music through dedication and team work. In 2002 I joined my city's orchestra, the "Ciudad Guayana" orchestra in Venezuela. I played both first and second violin throughout my 16 years of being there. We performed challenging repertoire such as Scheherazade, Mahler, Shostakovich, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven. Read More

For adults, I would still use Essential Elements because it does help with reading music, basic violin technique, bow hold, etc. Suzuki is a must because Suzuki is the best! I learned all of the books, and Suzuki's learning methods helps so much! As time progresses, solo repertoire will be introduced and the student will begin learning from Wohlfahrt etude book. Remember, with anything great it takes time. Practice makes PROGRESS! Read More

Turning any instrument from an uncomfortable, difficult task to fun and enjoyable part of a student's life is my number one priority! To ensure a full and successful development of a student, I typically spend as much time focusing on longevity as I do on learning how to play the instrument itself. I do this by making sure common tension points are relaxed and not overstressed especially after long playing sessions. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated teacher who loves performing, working with students, and sharing my love of music with others. I believe music is a gift that should be shared. I began playing violin 19 years ago and have played actively since. I began college in 2007 and studied music for a year before completing a degree in biology. However, I recently started studying music again at Berklee college of music and I am working on completion of my music degree. Read More

I like to begin the first lesson by recognizing the students strengths by having them show me what they can accomplish on their own. There are specific books that I like to teach out of depending on the skill level so that needs to be addressed during the first lesson. Recognizing and building on strengths to me should come before criticising weaknesses. Those will be addressed as they come along and exercises with scales and etudes will be chosen for those weaknesses, but that does not mean that challenging music needs to be played each and every time so that the student has to struggle for greatness.

My teaching experience dates back to my when I began high school, as I began teaching private lessons part-time on the side about 8 years ago, at music camps, and have been consistently teaching students in their homes, my home, or over zoom. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points that I like to preach to my younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.
