Class Experience

Young musicians of all ages and beginning-intermediate abilities will have the rare opportunity to learn to play both the piano and the violin at the same time.  As a violinist learns to read music and play their violin, it helps to learn it along with the piano.  Musical notes on the piano are set up in a logical form that makes learning note reading easy.  A student who can play both piano and violin has a major musical advantage over those who only play one or the other.  This ongoing, private violin/piano class will introduce students to basic piano and violin techniques.  Each lesson is custom designed to the young musician's ability, interest, and pace.  Utilizing songs, games as well as learning proper playing position and musicality, students will spend approximately 20 minutes on violin music and 20 minutes on piano music.  Come join the adventure.

Please note:  Refunds or rescheduling is given when 24 hours notice is provided.  I am easy to work with.
                        Please come to class with your violin tuned and ready to go.  I will teach parents how to do this.
                        Music books should be purchased within 2 weeks after class has started.

Learning Goals

Young musicians will be able to play both the violin and basic piano through innovative teaching techniques and personalized, private classes.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Parents of children age 6 and 7 should be available to help their child when the teacher is teaching their child how to hold the bow and violin, as well as how to sit up at the piano and place fingers on the keys. Once you have learned, please have your violin tuned before class. I will help parents of young children learn how.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I (Miss Helen) am an internationally trained violinist with a passion to play her violin. I have taught students from the sweet little 4-6 year-olds to fun-loving intermediate level violinists!  It has been a joy to conduct community youth orchestras, lead violin camps, give private and group lessons and direct school violin programs.  I believe in making learning fun, by playing games, moving, and doing challenges.  Some of the students I have taught have performed in Carnegie Hall, attended top music conservatories, are professional fiddlers, and continue playing for life to bless their families and churches. I cater to your child's personal learning style and abilities.  We progress as your child is ready so that they find a life-long love for their instrument.
