Violin Lessons for All Ages

About Me

Kathleen has years of experience teaching students of many ages and levels, from 5 to 55. As a teaching assistant at Eastman and at Northwestern University, she gave individual, private lessons to undergraduate and graduate violin students, under the supervision of her mentors. Also, in her own private studio, she has taught beginners as young as age 5, to adult students and those who want to play for recreation.

Lesson Details

The goal of lessons depends on what the student wants to gain - whether that means getting into their school orchestra, getting ready for college or simply for the sake of enjoyment and musical fulfillment. I work with the student to determine the best course of study to meet their needs along the way.

With beginning students, I use a combination of Suzuki and traditional
methods. The emphasis is on gaining a strong foundation, while also
having fun and getting to play "real" music right away!

Kate has been a Evanston private music instructor for TakeLessons since 2008. Kate is a certified local music teacher.
