Experience Summary
I am a certified teacher and have been teaching for 12 years in the elementary and middle school setting. While I am a math and science teacher, I have enjoyed playing and providing lessons for string instruments for 30 years. I have played the violin in the Scottsdale Symphony Orchestra and the Fayetteville Symphony Orchestras. I have experience in teaching beginner violin and cello students.
Teaching Style
I work to promote joy in learning and for the instrument itself. I myself learned through the Suzuki Method but am flexible to use the series preferred by the Palm Coast Youth Orchestra. My own children are involved with this group so I am familiar with the techniques and resources.
Other Comments
My rate is $25 per half hour, or $40 per hour. I will also provide lessons for groups up to four students of similar levels (not first year students) at discounted rates.
