About Naomi B.

4.9

(17)

I teach private violin lessons for beginner and intermediate level students. I have been teaching violin for 23 years. I use a combination of classical and Suzuki methods and I love working with both children and adults of all ages. About me: I am a classically trained violinist with a diverse musical background. I've performed with the University Orchestra and the UT Opera Society at the University of Texas, several string quartets and many bands-- folk, country, rock, experimental, pop and Mariachi to name a few. I periodically tour as a performer nationally and internationally. I am also a songwriter and I play guitar, piano and drums.

Student's home

Naomi is wonder violin teacher. She was so incredibly patient with my 3-yr old daughter, who can be quite playful and teasing at times. After only 4 months of one weekly half-hour lessons with Naomi, my daughter can now play Twinkle Little Star and has even started reading some music. It’s very difficult to find an instructor who’s willing to take on a student so young, but Naomi can definitely take on that challenge. She’s amazing, and we wish she was still here in Portland!

I am the Manager of Happy Valley Arts Academy where Naomi teaches lessons. She is great to work with! She is creditable, on time (which is very important), great communication and works amazingly with the students and parents.

I've been subbing over at the Ethos Music school in NE Portland for the past few months. I was working with kids ages 5 up to adults and had a great time teaching violin basics.

Linder Elementary School (AISD)

I taught the violin class for Linder Elementary School's Mariachi program for about 3 years. We were Austin's only elementary-aged Mariachi group. Our group performed at events around Austin and was been featured on local news stations. Classes were taught in a group setting so I was working with about 5-8 students at a time.
