Violin Lessons Pinellas County, FL

Instruments: Piano, Violin, Cello

My teaching originated in high school when I taught a few beginners the wonderful  basics of the cello.  I've now taught for over 15 years and have brought all students of all levels to new heights.  When teaching, I explain what it is that I do when I play and how to learn this.  Just performing would not allow me to share my insights from years of my musical journey.

As I previously mentioned above,I show each student as much as they can pick up.I can show a student just about anything they want to learn,but its really about how much they practice at home that determines their ability.If the student practices a lot we move much quicker and it becomes more fun and challenging.Music is endless and you can never stop learning.they are proving more and more every day how music affects your brain.When you just listen to music,you use every part of your brain.Few things do that.When you play music you are using even more of your brain.

I like to show students first, visually and audibly, how a piece or an excerpt goes that way they can begin to learn it already knowing a basis. I try to let students play through their pieces as much as they can so they can become adjusted playing through an entire piece and not just small segments. Of course, I will let you know which notes are needed to be fixed and timing issues as well so they when you play through again you think about those specific things and try to correct them.

Nothing is more important and rewarding to me than seeing my students develop their own passion for music and the instrument. I work extremely hard to help my students achieve their goals by catering every lesson specifically to the student. This includes getting to know each and every student, exploring their musical preferences, taking note of their learning styles; then utilizing these things to plan realistic objectives and enjoyable lessons every week.

I studied music education extensively and studied orchestral conducting with Dr. William Weidrich. After obtaining my Bachelors in Music from USF in 2013, I taught masterclasses in several middle, elementary, and high schools. I was briefly the music teacher at Westshore Elementary School before transitioning back into private lessons. I pivoted my career to food service management for five years from 2, learning valuable customer service and management skills. In 2018, I began teaching private lessons again at Westchase Music School. Read More
