About Me:
I teach using mostly traditional styles but find Suzuki method useful for some beginners. I stress and encourage listening to recordings and going to see live performances. Students are encouraged to keep a practice log/diary to monitor goals and keep assignments organized. While learning the violin is a lot of hard work, it should be a fun and enjoyable process!
