Violin lessons overview

My approach to tutoring violin and acoustic violin blends performance coaching, theory integration, empathy, and engaging sight-reading techniques. I personalize each lesson to cater to the unique needs and goals of my students, keeping them motivated and excited about learning. Using a range of tech tools such as DAWs, ear training software, and virtual violin apps, I create interactive lessons that enhance the learning experience. I follow a diverse curriculum including A-Levels, AP Program, and IB, ensuring comprehensive skill development. Working with small groups of less than 10 students at school, college, or professional levels, I aim to foster a supportive and encouraging environment that nurtures musical growth and proficiency.
