Leawood, KS Violin Lessons

My goal is to help you create a beautiful music by focusing on the foundations of tone, techniques, and practice. Beginners will learn to read music and develop good tone and rhythm. Intermediates will work on tone, vibrato, technique, and expression. At each lesson, I will show you what you need to do and give you the responsibility of practicing at home. You will also work on bowing/finger exercises, music activities, and improvisation so you can play along with any piece of music.

I'm passionate about music and have been over 19 years experience teaching the violin. I accept students from beginner to advanced levels and will help you achieve your goals whether you are wanting to learn the violin as a hobby, for school or pursue music as a career!

I began playing the violin 14 years ago and have been teaching it for 12 years. I start beginning violin students from the book "Essential Elements". Once the basic foundations are laid out we move on to scale, etude, and solo books.

Expect to grow in the knowledge of music and violin playing.

Private violin lessons focusing on technique, musicality, and performance skills

I have four years of experience teaching violin specifically through private lessons, public school orchestra, and coaching small ensembles. I can teach you to improve tone and technique while mastering repertoire. Let me help you achieve your string-playing goals.

I keep things simple, fun and student-based.

I started playing violin at 3 years old. Wichita State University gave me the opportunity to get my Music Ed degree and start teaching lessons. I have taken over 500 lessons myself and played in many heavy gigging bands playing gigs almost every weekend. Improvising, Country, Jazz, and Rock are my specialties but I have played lots of Blues, Funk, and Latin jazz as well.

Professional Violinist who specializes in training and encouraging new musicians to learn the violin! Lessons are oriented around each indivdual student's goals. Beginners are welcome and will begin with learning from either Essential Elements for Strings or through the Suzuki books in addition to other materials as needed. Although classically trained, I would be happy to tailor the style of music to the students wishes beyond learning classical skills such as fiddle music and/or pop covers!

Experienced Music teacher of 2 years available for eager students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of their skills. I specialize in the Stringed Instruments, mostly classical music, but other varieties typically use Scales and Suzuki books and other solo books, and also have the following tools available to use during lessons: metronome, tuner, rosin, and other essentials.
