Teaching methodology

My teaching methodology for violin is built on communication, creativity, and flexibility. I believe in open dialogue with my students to understand their goals and tailor lessons to fit their individual learning styles. I encourage creative expression through improvisation and exploration of different musical genres while focusing on essential techniques like bowing, finger placement, and rhythm. I am flexible in adjusting lesson plans to meet students’ needs and pace. Besides violin, I also teach music theory, ear training, and sight-reading to provide a well-rounded musical education.
