Instruments:
My biggest hope for my students is that they come away from lessons with a love for music. Every student is a unique player with their own pace, set of hurdles, focus, and interests, and I am committed to tailoring my teaching approach to each individual student. It is important to me that each student progresses at a realistic pace for themselves, tries their best, and has fun with the music they are learning. Learning more about what inspires a student helps me guide the teaching process in a way that lets my students explore music as a creative outlet and a community.
Instruments:
During my career I participated in many competitions and concerts. In 2001, I participated in the Young Talent Festival in Kyrgyzstan. In 2004, I became a concert mistress for the government chamber orchestra Young Talent, having the privilege to play for the Ambassador of the United States, China, Russia, Japan, and other important officials. I remained in this position until 2010. This orchestra also accompanied me in my solo performances and formed a string quartet, of which I was a member. In 2006-2008, I played with Sharq Taronalari in Samargard, Uzbekistan and worked in the Operetta Theater. After playing concerts around New York I decided to pursue further education in the US. At the school I have played in several competitions and concerts with orchestras, chambers and also as a solo performer. To sum it up, I have been a dedicated violinist for my entire life.
Instruments:
For beginners in Piano I recommend using Faber Piano Adventures. However if the students have been using other books, those are welcome. As the students are progressing, I will introduce them to solo repertoire in order to play in a recital. For Violin/Viola I start using the Suzuki series but I also include a modern repertoire and techniques. Sometimes I arrange a piece the student likes so they can start play the pieces they are familiar with.
Instruments:
Each of my students is an individual with specific needs. I learn from all of them to help me be a better teacher, but keep in mind that they will have different strengths and proceed at different rates - and that's okay! I also believe that learning the violin is not a race to the end of book 10, but rather a journey, and that each student's place along that journey comes in many shades of grey. Students may be at the same level but have different strengths; likewise a student at a low technical level may understand things in some areas that a technically more advanced student doesn't understand. Students also have different interests, methods of learning, and sources of motivation to which I as a teacher must do my best to adapt.
Instruments:
My teaching started when I was a music-major college student. I have taught music lessons - violin, viola and piano - to over 100 students (age ranging from 3 to 70s) both in Japan and in the US for 25 years. In addition, I taught the string section of the Kyoto City Philharmony Orchestra as a trainer. I am passionate about music, and would like to share my music experiences with students. I look forward to working with new students.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
