In this course, students will learn proper techniques, the basics of playing the violin, and musical pieces as they progress.
Class experience
The violin may seem like a daunting skill to embark on, but I ensure that each student will gain confidence when playing the violin all while having fun! I love having my classes be a space where students feel comfortable taking risks, making mistakes, asking questions, and feeling a part of the violin community. Lessons will move from how to properly hold their violin and bow and basic violin techniques to playing pieces and musical theory. As the student progresses, the weekly lessons may...
-Improve music sight-reading -Gain confidence playing the violin -Improve coordination between the bow and the violin -Hear pitches, practice music theory, and learn musical pieces
I have played the violin for over 12 years under the tutelage of a professional Suzuki violinist, have taught elementary-aged students how to play the violin in person for two years, and have taught online violin lessons for over two years. Outside of my experience with the violin, I have a passion and desire to share my love of the violin with other students while instilling confidence in them.
Homework Offered
The homework assigned will include practicing what the student worked on in the lesson. Homework assigned will vary between 1-3 hours each week depending on how much the learner desires to practice.1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
The learner will be assessed through their progress throughout the Suzuki pieces.Grades Offered
Learners will need to purchase Suzuki Violin Book 1 ($10). Additional books such as music theory books, sight-reading materials, or sheet music may be recommended during lessons but the majority of the materials and sheet music will be available online. Optional items that I believe will aid in learning include a music stand, pencil, tuner, and metronome.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Younger students may need assistance putting rosin on their bow, tuning, or setting up before their lesson.
Suzuki Violin Book 1 (or current book the learner is in) and I will provide the curriculum.
