Let's learn the violin! Private lessons for beginning players. Whether you are brand new or have already learned a few songs on the violin, this class is for you!

Class experience

Students will learn how to play the violin by learning correct posture, hand positioning, fingering techniques, bowing techniques, reading music, ear training, and rhythm.
I have been playing the violin for over 10 years and have been teaching private lessons on and off for the past 5 years. I have had the privilege of studying with 3 amazing professional violinists, each of whom were professional performers and teachers. In addition, I have taken several University level music classes including music theory, violin pedagogy, string literature, various ensembles, and more. I love to teach music! 
We will be using multiple violin method books that the student will need to purchase. The book I prefer to start with is called "Essential Elements for Strings, Violin Book 1". This can be found on Amazon or through any music store for around $10. 

There are many free apps for tuning the violin. Anything that has a microphone and can tell the student what note they are playing will be great! My favorite app is called "Soundcorset tuner & metronome".

It will also be a benefit to the student to purchase fingerboard stickers if they don't already have them. Violins have no frets! Can you believe it? These stickers will help in memorizing where to put left hand fingers. There are many great options for violin fingerboard stickers. Amazon has a few that are awesome which I have linked below. I can help to put these stickers on during our lesson.
