Ready to commit to once- weekly violin lessons for at least 8 weeks? I'm here to help! *Feel free to check out my "meets once" listing for this class or my introduction class to violin & bow parts first before deciding to make a commitment!* In this beginning violin class, you will learn everything you need to know. Whether that be from the very start- violin and bow parts, bow hold, basic rhythms, or progressing towards intermediate playing, this one on one lesson will be designed just for you! Lessons will progressively move towards string changes, and other tasks that will help you advance in your violin playing. I believe in teaching with encouragement- the violin is a difficult instrument to learn- but anyone can do it! These skills will help students learn the foundation to becoming a violinist who loves to play! If you don't see a time listed that works for you, let me know and I will see what I can do! *Taking weekly lessons will help you learn the violin more quickly, and because this is an individual lesson, guidance will be directed towards your exact needs/goals! Please note the that the time you enroll in, is specifically reserved for you and your private lesson for 8 weeks. If you would like to continue past the 8 week mark, let me know and I will re-list another 8 weeks for you!

Teacher expertise and credentials
North Carolina Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello,
I am a full-time 5th grade teacher and wildlife rehabiltator in North Carolina-I also teach Suzuki Violin! I have played violin for 21 years and have taken care of wildlife for just about as long. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in Art and there is nothing I enjoy more, than sharing my knowledge with others. I believe in encouragement and kindness in my teaching and I want to ensure that my students are able to pass on what they have learned to others as well.
If you don't see a class listed in your child's age range/time availability, send me a message and we will fix that!
