Violin Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Merrick, NY

I teach very young beginners (under 5) via the Suzuki Violin Method. Other students are taught utilizing traditional teaching approaches, method books ranging from A Tune a Day to study books by Hrimaly, Sevcik, Shraidieck and more. They learn to incorporate their technical skills which are honed by learning scales, positions, and studies in their repertoire such as short pieces of music and student and professional concertos for the Violin. I have taught violin lessons to students of all ages and levels for 20 + years. Letters of reference are available upon request. I am also a graduate of the Manhattan School of Music and have been critically acclaimed as a Violin Solo Recitalist in New York State.

I am a young engineer and Air Force officer highly motivated by the prospect of seeing others succeed. I have a B.S. in Industrial and Management Engineering which has given me ample experience in mathematics, most notably statistics, and the sciences. I have participated in a number of research projects where I have been given the opportunity to use what I’ve learned in practical applications. In addition to math and science, I am experienced in report writing and have excellent grammatical skills. I have two years experience tutoring older students math-related classes, and eight years experience tutoring children as young as eight in the violin and viola, both of which I am proficient in. Math and science did not always come easy to me as a student, so I know how frustrating it can be for someone to struggle in school. As a tutor, I work hard to give my students the confidence th

I believe that you have to cater your teaching to your student's needs. Because every student is different, it is imperative to try to maintain their attention while teaching and also make it interesting. I believe that great teachers can be entertaining and informative. I graduated with a degree in Spanish and Latin American Studies. I really wanted to give others the opportunity to improve their learning. I have tutored students in ESL and ELL programs, and have helped them with math, english, science, and social studies.

I was very motivated to accomplish a high level of excellence in education, and have earned a BS degree in both Meteorology and Mathematics. Although initially motivated to study meteorology, I took on the additional math major soon after because of my longtime love of numbers. Both majors complemented each other and enhanced my problem solving abilities. Further, both majors have afforded me the opportunity to apply Microsoft Excel to my laboratory projects, and senior research studies. Both research papers and laboratory write-ups helped me improve my grammar and writing skills. While attending college, I tutored other undergraduates in both Math and Statistics for two years. Teaching is a unique opportunity to shape a child’s world. I want to help children achieve their best, and have found that accomplishing this goal is best undertaken by exercising patience, care, and honesty

Since the age of 13 I have been playing bass. Since 1993 I've been a self employed bassist, audio engineer, producer and programmer. In addition to performing, I have extensive experience with computer audio/music recording and production. In that time, I have toured the world playing in several different musical styles. Most notably, playing with Jose Feliciano's. I've taught many students how to play bass privately and continue to do so today. I've taught at music stores as well as my home and students homes. In 2003, I decided that I wanted to integrate music and the internet, so I earned an Assoc. Degree in Web Development. I really enjoy teaching students how to play the bass. It's a thrill when they have that "Aha" moment and what I'm trying to show them simply clicks. Every student I've ever had has had different reasons for coming to me and therefore I approach each individual di

Since the third grade, I have been striving to always do my best in music. I kept improving and eventually was able to lead myself to several orchestras state wide and across the coast. After a lot of hard work, I made my way to Carnegie Hall with the New York Youth Symphony. I decided on enrolling to the Ithaca College school of music, studying under Nicholas Walker. Francois Rabbath, a world-renowned double bass musician, demonstrated his techniques as well as taught me for a week. During the last three years I have conducted a full string orchestra in a movement of Brahms Fourth Symphony as well as I have volunteered at my High School and teach my knowledge to prospective string music majors and other music students. Music, and working with students who enjoy music is my passion. My experiences have shown that some students can be shown or told, while others understand through strictl
