    Learn violin fast with a professional teacher with 10+ years experiences

    I have been teaching children and adults in bay area to play the violin for years. My violin lesson has helped not only young and adult students to develop a hobby and find their passions in the violin performance, but also school-age students to succeed in their school bands or city youth orchestra. Some of my students are currently playing in their school bands or the Peninsula Youth orchestra, and I help them polish their techniques and elevate their performance skills on a weekly base. I can teach in both English and Mandarin. For more information, please leave an online message. I am looking forward to working with you:) Background: I have passed the highest ABRSM exam and the violin performance assessment in China. I have got a lot of performance experiences in the first violin in the student orchestra of the city for years. I am experienced in helping students prepare for their orchestra audition as well as guiding them to improve their performances. In my class, students' "needs" and "wants" are prioritized. It helps students achieve their goals while combined with students' "lacks" in lesson planning. Whether you want to develop a hobby or to seek a more professional goal in violin performance, you will find something helpful here in my class. You will learn rhythms, melody, harmony, dynamics etc with me, and we will also have a chance to dig deep into the functions and principals of various performing techniques on a step-by-step learning progress. I will introduce a most-fit teaching material to you, with a lot of supplementary sheet music also provided in order to bring more fun and/or enhance your performance techniques. I will also make a customized teaching plan for each student according to your performance level.

    Lin is a great teacher. She pointed out many problems I didn't notice before, which helped me perform better. She also helped me build a solid foundation by paying attention to every detail.

    Lin is a fantastic violin teacher. My 13 year daughter was just starting violin lessons for the first time - Lin is always patient, flexible, and knows to engage my daughter. My daughter is really enjoying her violin lessons.
