I have taken private violin instruction for fourteen years, and my field of experience ranges from small solo concerts to intimate audiences to string quartet music to chamber string ensembles to leading a full piece collegiate orchestra.  

​

I am Suzuki trained and I teach modified Suzuki Method, but I am not Suzuki certified.  I have also had experience with the Galamian method of violin instruction and frequently incorporate it into my personal style of teaching.

​

If your beginner student favors viola, teaching beginning to intermediate violin is so similar to teaching beginning to intermediate viola that they are almost identical.  I will happily teach them!
