    Hi there! My name is Fernando L. and I am looking forward to working with you. I have helped many students throughout my four years of private teaching. I am currently working with "Mariachi Oro y Plata", and had the honor to also work with Chicago Youth Symphony Orchestra. I look forward to working with you and achieving your goals soon. *Travel Equipment* My violin, tuner, stand, metronome, and books. I expect the student to have his/her very own violin and stand. *My Specialties* Private or group lessons for all ages, competition/ audition preparation as well. What to expect? Expect to have fun and a learning experience. If you are determined, passionate and/or dedicated, what are you waiting for?

    Fernando was fantastic with my 14 year old son. He asked what type of music he wanted to play to keep him engaged. He had a great 45 minute lesson with him. Fernando is passionate about violin and it shows. Looking forward to continuing with Fernando! Highly recommend him!
