Hands-on approach to violin learning

Each lesson includes playing and review/discussion

Violin lessons overview

My personalized tutoring approach for violin lessons integrates creativity, theory, sight-reading, and technique. I use a range of tech tools like DAWs, metronome apps, and virtual violin apps to offer interactive online learning experiences. I cater to students at all levels, including school, college, and adult/professional learners, ensuring individualized attention in small groups of less than 10. I follow diverse curricula such as A-Levels, IB, AP Program, and more. By fostering empathy and focusing on technique, I create a supportive environment where students can grow and excel in classical, electric, acoustic, or fiddle violin styles. Through positive reinforcement and tailored guidance in music theory and performance techniques, I aim to make the lessons enjoyable and rewarding, nurturing a deep passion for playing the violin.

My teenage daughter has been taking violin lessons with Tate in Arden Arcade, and the change has been amazing. Tate knows how to make lessons fun while still teaching the right way to play. he chooses music that keeps things interesting sometimes it’s classical , other times it’s cool songs from movies. Because of this, my daughter is excited to practice every day and really enjoys learning now.

Didn’t expect violin lessons with Tate in Winston-Salem to change things this much. My bowing technique has improved faster than I imagined and I actually look forward to my practice lessons now.
