Hello Learners and Families,
I'm Stacey Sinclair. I am a musician, violinist, fiddle player, writer, coder, and more. Above all, I am a teacher. I am excited to bring my love of teaching to Outschool! I have a master's degree in education and over 10 years of experience teaching students of all ages.
My philosophy is that you are never done learning! I strive to foster a lifelong sense of curiosity and confidence in every student. I model this by pursuing continuous improvement as a teacher and musician. Beginners through advancing strings students will experience encouraging instruction and see improvement. Check out my Fundamental Foundations class to have fun starting strings with good technique. Try Fiddle Fun to learn a new genre and develop ear training skills. I also offer 1 on 1 lessons and coaching for violin, viola, and cello students. You can learn more about my music teaching at www.staceyraesinclair.com.
