秋の歌とバケツドラミング！

Hi! I'm "ViolinJudy," Mrs. Judy Naillon, and I LOVE TEACHING MUSIC! I'm a Professional Violinist and have played with many ensembles, including the Wichita Symphony for over 20 years.  I'm a Piano and Violin Teacher with 25 + years experience teaching both in person and virtually! In my free time I write Violin music books, and biographies of composers for kids in my "Very Interesting Life of" series which are available on Amazon. 

I have a private teaching studio with MANY Violin, Piano, and Ukulele students so I have limited availability, if you message me I go through my waiting list each week trying to connect learners with any spots that have opened up! I am a master teacher, and have had the amazing opportunity to also work for Alfred's Music Publishers, one of the largest music publishers in the world.

I enjoy teaching beginners through advanced music students with my professional studio setup, and am experienced in teaching ages 3 through adult students. I use a combination of tried and true teaching methods like Suzuki, along with note reading skill building to help my students learn to play music they love. I always have a quick music theory game to engage my music students.  My virtual students also benefit from the many educational videos I post for them to my YouTube channel. 

I love keeping up with current events and usually read 2-3 newspapers every day from around the world. I enjoy sharing some of these stories in my "breakfast club" weekday morning meet-up and genuinely love getting to know my students.  My guilty pleasures are watching til-tok videos and enjoying good chocolate.  I love to play the Spelling Bee game from The New York Times Crossword App and try to get to genius every day! I also used to work for our local NPR station and love public radio!

 I am blessed to have a wonderful husband,  a cute, well behaved mini golden doodle puppy and an amazing daughter who plays many musical instruments and has learned French from Outschool!
