Learning Goals
Our lessons will provide a supportive, creative space for students to discover the joy of making music. Whether you're new to the instrument or continuing your studies, my goal is to foster your love of violin through tailored instruction and a strengths-based approach.
Specifically, by the end of our lessons students will:
👉Develop proper bow hold, posture and fingering technique through mirrored practice and gentle feedback.
👉Build reading skills by learning basic note names and rhythmic patterns.
👉Experience the satisfaction of playing full songs using their growing techniques.
👉Gain confidence performing for others in a non-judgmental environment.
Most of all, I hope you'll walk away feeling empowered in your ability to express yourself musically. My hope is that the violin brings you years of enrichment - both in technical skill and personal fulfillment. Let's get started!Other Details
