Violin Lessons in Park City, UT

Instruments: Violin Viola

We all go at our own pace, and we should not compare our musical progress to others' musical progress. I will help my students make their own unique musical goals and gradually achieve them through a kind and loving teaching approach. I will adapt to each of my student's learning preferences, whether that is visual, aural, or written. I will give positive feedback, and step-by-step ways in which improvement can happen. Read More

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!

Instruments: Violin

I follow the Suzuki method for beginner students, with some additional instruction to learn to read sheet music for those with previous music experience or older students who are ready to begin reading music. After the student has completed the first several books of the Suzuki method, I include selections from Solos for Young Violinists and other solo pieces as appropriate to reinforce certain skills. Of course, when students show an interest in learning a particular piece, I am always happy to bring it into their repertoire. Read More

Instruments: Violin Viola

I use the Suzuki Method throughout my teaching process. I think it is a great bases for teaching the techniques necessary to master the violin/viola. I also use various scale books (according to level) to teach note reading, sight reading, and basic music theory. Each student in my studio is required to work on a technique (scales, etc.) and one to two solo pieces. Along with this, majority of my students perform with orchestras in schools or the community.
