Experience Summary
Suzuki violin/viola - I have registered credits through Book 4 at the Suzuki Association of the Americas.
College level violin/viola - I have over 20 years experience teaching college level students.
Adult Beginners - My adult beginners have been able to perform in public within 2 years of study.
I hold a Bachelors of Music, Performance, from Memphis State University, and a Masters of Music, Performance, from the Brooklyn College, CUNY.
Teaching Style
Positive Coaching for all ages. I have enjoyed teaching children as young as 2 years, intermediate level students, and also group lessons for adult beginners. I believe in quiet, positive coaching that draws out the best music in every student. I have taught autistic children as well, and I have been impressed with the progress that all my students make.
Other Comments
I welcome homeschoolers. Many of my best students have been homeschooled, and I also taught my own children this way.
