Private Violin lessons will focus on teaching students basic violin skills and techniques! Students will work with pizzicato (plucking) and arco (bow) playing styles and learn several different notes and their fingerings in order to perform different pieces of music. We will primarily use the Suzuki Method for Violin with some Essential Elements for Strings sprinkled in. Links/Scans of these resources will be provided to students. Students are expected to have a sized violin at their first lesson. Please message if you are unsure about sizing. Note: The timeline below does not apply to current students moving from Group Lessons to Private Lessons. We will continue on from where we left off in our last lesson. Week 1: Parts of the Violin, how to properly hold the violin, and Pizzicato Position Week 2: Pizzicato Playing and Violin String Names (Ant Song) Week 3: Left hand position and pressing the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd finger down on the E string and their note names Week 4: Review: Left hand position, fingers on the E String. New: Fingers and Note Names on the A string.

Maryland Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Hello!
I'm Ms. Lexi and I teach of a variety of Instrumental Music classes (winds and strings!) and Pre-K general music.
My first taste of teaching comes from my experience as a Teaching Artist with the BSO's Orchkids Program working with students in schools that rarely offered general or instrumental music programs. It was a gift to meet so many bright, talented, and eager students. For the last several years, I have worked with several elementary and middle schools in the public school system. I have taught beginner and intermediate students to play a variety of band and string instruments.
I believe that every student can learn to love music and play an instrument! It is all about finding the right instrument for the student, discovering the music they love, and reinforcing the habits that work for each individual.
My favorite things to do outside of teaching and music are knitting socks, creek swimming with my mastiff and discovering a great new read at Barnes and Noble.Reviews
