Violin lessons overview

My teaching approach for violin, jazz violin, and electric violin blends performance coaching, creative techniques, and theory integration to deliver engaging and empathetic lessons. I tailor each session to the individual student's needs, ensuring a student-centered and personalized learning experience. By incorporating real-life examples and utilizing tech tools like DAWs, ear training software, and virtual violin apps, I create interactive lessons that connect theory with practical applications effectively. Following various curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, and IB, I cater to students across school, college, and adult/professional levels, fostering a deep understanding of the subject. With a focus on less than 10 students per session, I provide a supportive environment that encourages students to express their unique musical voice while honing their technical skills. My methodology emphasizes problem-solving strategies, empowering students to tackle challenges independently and fostering a passion for music in learners of all levels.

The best thing about Henderson Bond's violin lessons is she gives constructive feedbacks on bowing angles and clean playing which helped me tackle fast pieces without much hesitation. That’s the difference Henderson ’s violin lessons in Stonebridge brought to my practice.

For months, I battled tension and bad posture. I can finally relax my wrists and have a richer tone now that Henderson in Keller Park utilised analogies that I understood.

Performing a Billie Eilish song in an acoustic violin arrangement at Riverlights was an exciting step outside my comfort zone, inspired by Henderson ’s Violin lessons and she encouraged me to explore contemporary music.
