I teach students as young as 7 and all ability levels, whether you're just starting out, have been playing for a while, or are considering switching from violin to viola. My students don't just learn to copy my playing, but learn how progress and problem-solve when they're practicing on their own.

I am currently pursuing a Master of Music in viola with a concentration in string pedagogy and a graduate of the New England Conservatory and Tufts University double degree program with degrees in Viola performance and English Literature. At NEC I studied with Roger Tapping, Carol Rodland, and Kim Kashkashian. My summer festival experience includes Aspen Music Festival, Bowdoin International Music Festival, and the Heifetz Institute, where I also worked with Jeffrey Irvine, John Graham, and James Dunham.

I am a clarinet performance and music education major at the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University. I have 5+ years of teaching experience and am qualified to teach all instruments.

I am a recent Music Education graduate from the University of Maryland, College Park and I currently teach in Baltimore City Public Schools. I've had over four years experience as conductor of the Gamer Symphony Orchestra (a 130+ member orchestra with choir that performs video game music.) I have also had previous experience teaching private flute and piano lessons out of my own home. I currently teach in an after school music program teaching K-2 Percussion and a middle school Guided Band Practice and am seeking to teach full time in Maryland Public School System. I would love to help students understand how music can greatly impact all aspects of their lives and I believe that helping students become engaged in the material by using music they like to listen to (such as video game music) is also important. I now teach in Baltimore City Public Schools as a Music teacher.

Instruments I can teach:

ALL band intstuments

ALL Orchestra instruments

I have studied with Wanchi Huang at James Madison University for six years. At JMU, I earned a Bachelor of Music and a Master of Music, both in violin performance. I am currently working on a doctoral degree at Catholic University of America, studying with Jody Gatwood. When I was a student at JMU, I taught several students privately. The students ranged from retirees to JMU faculty and students to adolescents. I am now teaching at Baltimore Talent Education Center, where I teach violin in small groups and individual lessons. The students at BTEC range from pre- kindergarden through high school. I also have festival experience. I have been a student at Brevard Music Center, Heifetz International Music Institute, BayView Music Festival, and I was a Teaching Fellow at Interlochen Arts Camp. Through my experiences both as a student and as a teacher, I understand that every student is a little bit different. Every student has different strengths and weaknesses. Every...

For as long as I can remember, music has been a part of my life. I began dance and piano lessons by the age of three, and at 9 I began to study violin with Phyllis Freeman at Peabody Preparatory in Towson. In high school, I studied with Klara Berkovich, and in 1997 I began studies with Dr. Zoltan Szabo. I graduated from Towson University in 2002.
After college I played in Irish, Bluegrass, folk and rock bands. I have been performing locally in an old timey jazz duo for ten years.
I have been teaching for 6 years, and I absolutely love it. I try to develop a program individual to each student with challenging and fun material.

Elementary school principal and music teacher for more than 10 years. BA in Music theory and history, Recording and performing experience.

I have a degree in violin and piano from the Boston Conservatory as well as a Master's Degree from the University of Maryland. I have additional training as a Suzuki teacher. I have played all around the world including the Vatican, White House, Paris, Russia, England and Wales as well as in Concert Halls such as Carnegie Hall and Kennedy Center. I have taken students with me to perform as well in these countries and also every major concert hall in the Washington, D.C. area. I give my students opportunities to perform whenever there is an opportunity. In addition I work with students to earn music scholarships to private schools and colleges. Recently, I was given the honor of judging a major string competition.

Music has been an important part of my life. It represents so much that is good in life and I do my best to communicate this to my students. I am training my students not just to be musicians but to love music for life.

I have a pretty musical background. My father is a bass teacher and was in the National Symphony Orchestra and my mother is a piano teacher and a elementary school music teacher. I have been taking music lessons since the age of 5 starting first with the piano, then violin at age 7, and switching my focus to viola at the age of 12. I went to Interlochen arts camp and was part of the American Youth Philharmonic before attending Shenandoah University to study Viola- Performance. I am currently in the Capital City Symphony and Washington Conservatory Orchestra and take lessons from a violist in the NSO.

I have been teaching private violin for over 20 years, and private viola/cello for about 10. I have taught in Charles and St. Mary's County Public schools. I am a member of American Strings Teacher's Association, National Association for Music Educators (Maryland Music Educators Association), and the Music Teachers National Association (Music Teachers Association of Charles County). As a teacher, I'm very student oriented. We move at your pace. The more you practice, the faster we move. I do encourage learning to read music, but I use multiple ways of teaching to reach my students. Everyone learns in a different way. My primary job is to see you achieve your goals in relation to your instrument. I also encourage that you take every opportunity to perform. There are many groups in the area that allow for different ages and styles of music. I can help you understand what is going on behind the music and hopefully see what the composer was hoping to convey, if that is something you...

I have been playing the violin since I was eight years old, and singing since I was nine. Beginning only as a hobby, I quickly became bored with my steady diet of classical music. Finally, I found the right teacher, and began learning alternative styles. She directed me to the Mark O'Connor Fiddle Camps, where I studied with top violinists from every genre, including folk, jazz, rock, and many more. By the time I reached high school, I couldn't imagine what else I would do with my life. I auditioned for and was accepted into the Richmond Symphony Youth Orchestra, All-County and District Orchestras, and Virginia Commonwealth University Honors Orchestra. I also continued to sing, and auditioned for and was accepted into the Greater Richmond Children's Choir, District Choir, and All-State Choir. While studying classical styles with Juilliard graduates, I also continued with my alternative styles, performing as a guest artist with Grammy Award winning rock violinist Mark Wood and the...
