Lessons

I am a violin and viola instructor with more than 20 years of teaching experience, offering both certified Suzuki and traditional classical training. I teach many styles, including Latin American traditional music, and offer lessons in English, Spanish, and French. I also prepare students for competitions, recitals, and other school performances.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
I want students to thrive and advance with their instruments as well as to develop a lifelong love and appreciation of music. I work with parents to create a positive and nurturing learning environment (online and in person), one where students can comfortably share the joy of making music.
