Lesson Information

I teach from the beginning using the Suzuki Method and principles which emphasizes developing students’ characters, learning musical language through listening, and involving the parent as a partner in practicing. I have completed training in Suzuki Books 1,2 & 3 and strive to continue to learn as a teacher.

Once the students are more advanced, supplemental repertoire is added as needed. I am also happy to work towards a goal of learning a piece or song the student loves. Learning music should be enjoyable!

Practicing musical skills consistently is the best way to improve on the violin and gain motivation from seeing progress. I provide families with practice binders with clear practice assignments & activities.

Students’ health while playing is important to me. I have taken Rolland training to gain knowledge about how to teach violin in a balanced manner.

Tuition Structure:

• 20 minute lessons - $25

• 30 minute lessons - $35

• 45 minute lessons - $50

• 60 minute lessons - $65

• Once-a-Month Saturday Group Class (1hr) - $20

Recommended lesson times depend on age and skill level. The most common lesson time is 30 minutes, with older and more advanced students taking 45 minute or 1 hour long lessons. 20 minute lessons are generally reserved for beginner students (6 years old or younger).

Group classes are a great way to learn musical skills and have fun playing with others! I encourage all my students to attend a once-a-month group class to improve their skills, gain inspiration from listening to others, and build community.
