Best Violin Lessons in Eden, GA

My approach to teaching is individualized for each student. My goal as a teacher is to make violin playing enjoyable and as comfortable as possible. I have mostly taught children between the ages of 9 and 17 but I look forward to working with students of all ages and levels.

I teach violin at the New School for Leadership and the Arts, mostly to novice players, and I have experience teaching violin to children of all ages.

My primary instrument is guitar, which I've played for about 25 years in many different bands, styles, and genres. I studied music and classical guitar at University of Central Florida, and during that time I also helped teach violin to a class of third graders. I'm not a pro violinist, but I have plenty of experience working with novice players, helping them develop proper technique, sight reading, ear training, and other skills needed to advance to the next level.

I hold a Bachelor of Music degree from the New England Conservatory and am currently a Master's student at Juilliard. I regularly play solo and chamber concerts internationally and can offer the highest level of instruction and artistry. I am also a passionate teacher- I am a Juilliard teaching artist at a local school in Harlem. I have over 10 years experience teaching young students, having worked with the New England Conservatory Preparatory School as an arts administrator, chamber coach, and orchestra sectional teacher.

I love taking the time to get to know each student on an individual level, and finding what gets them excited about making music. With over ten years of experience teaching students ages five through adulthood, I know each person learns differently and has different goals. I will work with you to come up with achievable goals, while also pushing you to discover how to play in a way unique to you!

I am a graduate student of violin performance at Sacramento State University, welcoming all ages and ability levels for violin lessons. Lessons will be designed to help you reach your personal goals and take your playing to the next level. Whether you're looking to build a strong musical foundation, improve your technique, learn to sight-read, or just learn some tunes, I look forward to working with you!

The violin has been a constant and enriching presence throughout my life, and I enjoy helping people engage with this instrument that is demanding and rewarding in equal measure. No matter your age or level of expertise, I would be happy to help you along as you discover new musical territory. I’m most fluent in the classical style, but am happy to explore other areas with you as well, from bluegrass to Broadway.
