Best Violin Lessons in Belleair Beach, FL

Learning to play the violin can be one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences. I look forward to providing an enriching learning environment for my students of all ages and levels. With a background in various methods including certifications and doctoral research, I believe my curriculum is flexible and rigorous for students of all backgrounds. I encourage my students to reach their potential and find the best method that works for them. I love a student who is ready to learn and has a passion for music!

First lesson we will get acquainted with your goals and what you are looking for out of lessons. Then I will assign fun technique building exercises along with goal pieces that we will work on together. Expect to have fun and enjoy music!

I have been teaching violin for 3 years. Due to COVID, I switched to Zoom lessons this year, and it has been surprisingly awesome! Anything I teach in person translates to Zoom, and this makes learning the violin more accessible than ever.

I teach using the Suzuki Method and See Saw exercise books. I love to teach students of any age - adults and kids. For younger students, I recommend a parent be present to help with lesson setup and note-taking. You're welcome to sit in on the whole lesson or just the first and last 5 minutes or so.

Also, I love introducing students to alternative styles of violin. Want to learn how to play in a rock band? I can help! Want to play by ear and jam? We can do that too!

No matter your end goal, we'll work on posture and playing technique to help you achieve a beautiful sound and comfortable playing. We'll also work on basic music theory and note-reading.

I look forward to meeting you!
