Teaching

I teach violin lessons and viola lessons to students of all ages. I understand that each student has unique needs and goals, and I cater the repertoire we work on so that the student can flourish. I was taught in the Suzuki and RCM methods and understand the values of both - I emphasize a beautiful, natural tone and comfortable physical approach for beginners and musical and technical development as students advance.
One of the most important things I focus on with students is how to practise effectively at home, outside of lessons - home practice is where much of the progress will happen. Lessons consist of scales and technique, repertoire development and review, listening, and theory/history. I recommend 30 minute lessons for beginners, increasing the lesson lengths to an hour for more advanced students.
