My teenage daughter received excellent technical skills from Sawyer violin lessons in Downtown San Jose, all while maintaining an enjoyable and interesting environment. Now that he has Sawyer backing, he hopes to perform on larger stages in the future.

When it comes to children, Sawyer is great tutor in Edison Park. In order to explain finger positions to my daughter, who learns best visually, he utilises finger tapes and colourful charts.

Sawyer based in Morada is kind and always steady in how he teaches. I had trouble with vibrato for a long time, but he showed me how to do it one step at a time. Now I can use it well in my solos. his love for music really motivates me.

Warmth and consistency shaped every lesson, making difficult skills feel possible and easy. Sawyer guided my daughter through harmonics and shifting in Preston and now he dreams of teaching violin himself one day!
