I put a lot of myself forward when I say I really enjoy teaching. It's a large part of who I am and because of that I'm great with kids, and really beginners or all ages. Because I can get you to feel like you're making music and enjoying the learning expierience. Music is all about learning, and a quest to better your own mental and physical awareness and precision. In doing so you can learn alot of cool stuff, so I teach using a variety of disiciplines to achive that sort of versatility.
When it comes to higher skill level students, I try to involve as much alternative stuff I can. Teaching fiddletunes especially helps many violinists broaden their horizens and open up a whole new method and thought process behind playing. Developing upon the fiddle tunes lets me use it as a transitional theme into improvisation by usage of variations. This also broadens into modern music, so if you wanna learn that Dave Matthews cover song I got your back.
I teach both half hour and hour long lessons. For some children a 30min lesson is often enough to give them just enough to handle on a weekly basis. But everyone that does make it through the one hour lesson comes out having learned and retained way more then the shorter 30min lesson. I'm available at mixed times all week long so get in touch and we can start playing!!
