Violin lessons overview

My personalized tutoring approach focuses on integrating music theory, fostering empathy, and enhancing sight-reading skills for violin students. I blend progressive instruction with real-life examples tailored to each student's needs. By using a variety of tech tools like DAWs, metronome apps, and virtual violin apps, I create interactive lessons that enhance learning. Following curricula like A-Levels (UK) and IB, I ensure a comprehensive educational experience. With a focus on individualized attention, I cater to small groups or one-on-one sessions for students at school, college, or professional levels, ensuring a supportive and collaborative learning environment for optimal growth.

I always had a dream of playing violin in front of the whole crowd, but never got a good mentor. Recently, I have started taking classes from Ravenshade at Montana Vista and I can see soon my dream will become true.

The violin lessons in Bixby Knolls with Ravenshade has been the best thing that happened to me this year! A great balance of discipline and creativity and each lesson is tailored to my needs and I am so confident in singing duets with my friends now, I can't begin to explain my gratitude for her!

Mastering third position and spiccato was tough until focused coaching made it click. Ravenshade lessons gave me the technique and confidence I needed for my chamber ensemble audition in Terry Sanford.

Despite my son's limited attention span, she is constantly interested in Ravenshade violin lessons in Lamasco beacuse of her interactive games, particularly the bow balance and string crossing songs.

Ravenshade break everything down so clearly that nothing feels overwhelming. Thanks to their support, I’m finally enjoying the learning process. I feel safe making mistakes and growing at my own pace.

Focused on preparing for the regional orchestra audition in Troon North, Ravenshade ’s coaching on advanced bow control-especially spiccato and tone clarity-plus weekly mock auditions and targeted feedback, played a key role in helping me earn second chair, a result I’m truly proud of.
