Performing solo on the violin at Concord events became possible for me, thanks to Watten ’s support in helping me overcome my confidence issues.

The topic of violin class in Bloomington was all my daughter could talk about. Fun call and response songs and animal activities for bow grip were part of Watten education. At home, she is already doing brief works.

My progress on difficult string crossings became more powerful and reliable thanks to Watten violin instruction in Midtown Tallahassee. She fostered a sense of possibility with every technical hurdle.

Watten is a fantastic violin instructor. My 6 year old daughter takes her classes in Streeterville and the way she balances enjoyment with structure has really helped my child stay motivated and grow steadily.

At Vistancia, my son gained confidence in her violin recital thanks to Watten , who patiently taught her stage presence and musical expression.

While visiting Thai Town, I came across Watten violin lessons, and I'm very glad I did. For mature beginners like me, Watten workshops are a great thrill because of her blend of conventional technique and contemporary innovation.

Intermediate players will greatly benefit from Watten instruction. she taught me challenging violin skills like harmonics and ricochet bowing. her pedal suggestions were also very helpful for adding innovative sounds to my electric violin playing.
