Violin lessons overview

My teaching approach centers on fostering expressive musicality, integrating music theory, enhancing sight-reading skills, engaging students actively, and refining their ear training abilities. Specializing in violin, I offer personalized tutoring in classical, jazz, electric, acoustic, baroque, fiddle, and student violin. To create interactive lessons, I leverage various tech tools like DAWs, ear training software, metronome apps, and virtual violin applications. Following diverse curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, IB, and more, I cater to a small audience of less than 10 students at school, college, all levels, and adult/professional learners. My strength lies in adapting to individual learning styles, making complex concepts accessible, and creating a supportive environment where students thrive and progress effectively in their violin lessons.

I didn’t realize how much vibrato and tone color mattered until I started violin lessons with Harper in Rancho Gabriela. My playing of “Meditation” has become much more expressive thanks to her tips on bow control.

Humor and creativity is the best part of Harper ’s violin lessons and kids really pick up on that. My son performed her solo so confidently at the winter concert for fourth graders ad I am so happy I chose Harper violin tutoring classes in Lindley Park.

Harper violin instruction in Floral Park made my hectic adult life much more enjoyable. Every lesson combines expressive playing with technical drills, which helps me remember why I began learning the violin.

The balance of Harper violin lessons at Boca Square is ideal. Learning remains enjoyable and fulfilling when one learns classical skills while performing contemporary music.

My daughter just performed her solo at school, all thanks to Harper . People were amazed after seeing her play with confidence. This all happened because of Harper as she took her classes in Woodlands of CS and helped my daughter for her first solo performance. Thank You!
