About Alexandra H.

Welcome! I customize my lessons to every student's learning style and playing level. I reference a lot of my teaching from the Suzuki method, however, I have a plethora of tooIs outside of it that can be used in lessons if needed. I have taught students from a variety of playing backgrounds and ages and use my creativity to make the lesson engaging and adaptable to their needs. During my undergrad, I had 7 different teachers due to many changing circumstances, therefore, I am familiar with a variety of teaching styles.
