Teaching methodology

Music is both an art and a discipline, requiring precision, creativity, and emotional depth. As a violin instructor, my methodology is built on a structured yet flexible approach that adapts to each student’s needs. I emphasize technical mastery through proper posture, bow control, and intonation training, ensuring students develop strong foundational skills. Alongside this, I integrate ear training and rhythm exercises to cultivate a deep understanding of music, allowing students to build confidence and precision in their playing. Beyond technical skills, I encourage students to explore musical expression and interpretation. Music is a language, and every piece tells a story. I teach phrasing, dynamics, and historical context to help students connect emotionally with their performance. Improvisation and creativity play a vital role, especially in Iranian music, where ornamentation and personal expression are key elements. By blending structure with artistic freedom, I ensure students not only play music but truly understand and feel it. My teaching philosophy extends beyond individual lessons, fostering resilience, discipline, and a lifelong love for music. Through engaging techniques, technology, and performance opportunities, I inspire students to develop their unique musical voices. Whether guiding a beginner through their first notes or refining an advanced student’s technique, my goal is to shape confident, expressive musicians who carry their passion for music throughout their lives.
