Beginning Violin Group Class

Hello! My name is Ms. Lindsay. I have a Bachelor of Music degree with emphasis in violin performance. I have been teaching for 17 years to people of all ages and have been playing violin and piano for 25 years! I have years of performance experience with the Southeast Missouri State Symphony and the University City Symphony Orchestra. I accompany children and coach them for solo and ensemble competitions. My favorite performance setting would definitely have to be playing in orchestra pits for musicals and operas! I've played in more orchestra pits than I can count. Some of my favorites are Into The Woods, Peter Pan, and Die Zauberflöte (aka The Magic Flute).

I teach private violin lesson for all levels as well as group classes for beginning violinists. I love to connect with my students, listen to their joys and concerns and give positive constructive critique to help them grow as musicians. In my private lessons, I tailor the lesson to the child's specific learning styles and interests. Want to learn classical music? Fiddle? Jazz? Pop? I've got you covered. I start my students with a classical foundation and then branch out into any style they might be interested in.

Besides teaching music, I love to perform with other musicians, cook, bake, crochet, listen to audio-books and learn new skills! I look forward to meeting you!

SCHEDULE REQUESTS/PRIVATE LESSONS
I am able to respond directly to schedule requests! I also will accommodate the desire for private lessons, please message me about times and fees.

*********************************
SIBLINGS:
If you have more than one learner enrolled in the class, each learner that wants to participate must be enrolled to be fair to other students participating. Enrolled siblings are always welcome to share a screen during class.

REFUNDS & TRANSFERS:
Per Outschool's limited refund policy: "Full refund within 24 hours of purchase or up to a week in advance of the class.", missed appointments do not qualify for refund. I will be glad to transfer your learner to another section but require 24 hours' notice.

For one-time classes:
If within the week, you realize you won't be able to make class, please submit a transfer request from the classroom at least 24 hours in advance. This ensures another student who would like to take the class has enough time to see the opening and enroll.
If contacted after class, I cannot refund or transfer. I do understand personal/family emergencies come up and will do my best to support you if I am contacted before class. If your learner is withdrawn on your end within the non-refundable period, I am unable to transfer you. It is best to contact me first for your options.

*Refund/Transfer Policy*
Per Outschool policy, there are no refunds for missed classes. I will be glad to transfer your learner to another section but require 24 hours' notice. This timing is necessary in order to fill the spot you are vacating. If I transfer you on short notice, I may not be able to fill your original spot, which means you are taking up two spots but only paying for one.
