I have been teaching violin for 20 plus years. I have taught private, group, community youth orchestras, and played in community orchestras. My goal is to share my passion for the violin with my students and to instill within them a belief that they can accomplish great things if they stick with it, make it fun, and take it one step at a time.
Homework Offered

These items are required for this course. a violin that is good for their size: Please be sure to measure your child's arm from neck to mid palm. Here is a sizing chart: 28-52 inches: 1/4 size violin 53-56 inches: 1/2 size violin 57-60 inches: 3/4 violin above 60 inches: Full size 4/4 violin rosin: any. Most violins come with this, so check first. shoulder rest:- The sponge ones that attach with a rubber band are good fore beginner students, or a Kun-type for older students or those with longer necks. finger tapes: There are many types of these. The ones that have simple colored stripes on them are the simplest to use. They will have yellow, white, red, blue etc. stripes with no letters on them. I will also be sending handouts each week, so please have the ability to print them, and a binder with sheet protector sleeves to put them in.
Student will not need any materials for this class as all materials are teacher generated.
