Reynolds is highly focused on results. My son’s technique has greatly advanced, particularly with shifting and sight-reading. she’s a fantastic teacher for intermediate players.

Dimond District, Oakland

After a year of self-teaching, I started working with Ravensdale in Dimond District. She corrected my posture and bowing issues that were limiting my progress. Now, my sound is much clearer, and I actually look forward to practicing. Ravensdale strikes a perfect balance between technical skills and expression, and she monitors my progress closely. She even introduced me to different styles beyond classical music. I’m amazed at how much I’ve improved in just a few months.

Choosing to learn violin with Radcliffe near Lake Merritt has been incredibly rewarding. She helped me establish a daily practice routine and identified habits I didn’t know I had. Radcliffe focuses on both expressive playing and technical precision, and she’s excellent at guiding me through performance preparation and managing nerves. It’s evident that she’s genuinely invested in her students’ growth, making every lesson truly valuable.
