Violin lessons overview

In my role as a Violin tutor specializing in classical, acoustic, and baroque violin, I employ an orchestral teaching approach that focuses on tone, pitch accuracy, solo performance, and bowing techniques. I utilize a variety of tech tools like DAWs, ear training software, metronome apps, and virtual violin apps to enhance learning. My curriculum aligns with educational standards like A-Levels, AP Program, IB, and more. I cater to a diverse audience of 10+ students, including kids, beginners, intermediate, advanced, and adults. Through personalized feedback and interactive sessions, I aim to cultivate technical proficiency and musical creativity, empowering students to excel in their violin journey and achieve their musical aspirations.

One thing that sticks out about Rodney ’s classes in Durham is how much he cares about my vocal health. I’ve learned to stretch my range safely and feel more confident while singing now.

Before Rodney visual cues and fingerboard charts in Carmel, shifting used to be too much for me to handle. I'm now more fluid and in touch when I move into third position.

Studying violin with Rodney in the Financial District has really combined musical theory with creative exploration. I’m even getting into writing my own short compositions now!

Using creative finger patterns and auditory cues in Violin lessons at Maryvale, Rodney helped my 13-year-old overcome dyslexia challenges, and now he proudly plays simple classical pieces after each session.
