Violin lessons overview

My personalized tutoring approach for violin blends theory integration, creative expression, and performance coaching to nurture students' musical growth. I emphasize developing expressive musicality and honing sight-reading skills to enhance overall proficiency. Using a range of tech tools like DAWs, metronome apps, and virtual violin apps, I create interactive lessons that engage students effectively. I cater to a diverse range of subjects including Classical, Jazz, Electric, and Baroque violin, tailoring each lesson to suit the student's preferences and goals. Following curricula like A-Levels, AP Program, and IB, I ensure a comprehensive learning experience aligned with academic standards. Working with small groups of less than 10 students at school, college, or professional levels, I provide individualized attention to maximize learning outcomes and instill a deep love for music in each student.

After a year of self-teaching, I started working with Ravensdale in Dimond District. She corrected my posture and bowing issues that were limiting my progress. Now, my sound is much clearer, and I actually look forward to practicing. Ravensdale strikes a perfect balance between technical skills and expression, and she monitors my progress closely. She even introduced me to different styles beyond classical music. I’m amazed at how much I’ve improved in just a few months.
