    Take your violin lessons anywhere with a master teacher to hone your skills.

    These violin lessons are specifically designed for all levels and ages. While we have weekly lessons, these meetings are a part of a lifestyle. I care deeply about each one of my student’s interests and daily lives. We use the violin as a tool to enrich our lives musically, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually. By supporting each student as a unique person I help cultivate their individual strengths and interests. We strive to promote curiosity, well-roundedness, and a sense of community to develop a solid foundation as a musician. While enrolled in my studio, students will find a stimulating environment to explore their potential. In return, I expect a high level of commitment which starts with daily practice. Each one of my students has a weekly personalized chart for their practice and a journal to write down their thoughts and questions which I respond to. Practicing is where progress is made. Each student has goals that are set at the beginning of each term. They are not set in stone and can be revised by the teacher. They can also be altered as the student matures and progresses. Together we must have high musical standards of playing and expect ourselves to give our best at home and in lessons. I want each one of my students to love playing the violin and experience a life with passion, joy, and confidence. Lessons are offered in person in Montréal or online via Zoom, Skype, or FaceTime.

    About Taylor M.

    My name is Taylor! I began playing the violin when I was 10 years old in an elementary school string program. After a couple years I ended up finding a great teacher who supported me all the way until university. I then attended Florida State University where I completed my Bachelors in Music Performance under Eliot Chapo, previous concertmaster of the New York Philharmonic, Dallas Symphony, and Philadelphia Orchestra. Upon graduating from FSU, I moved to Montréal, Canada to receive my Masters degree in violin performance under the tutelage of Axel Strauss at the Schulich School of Music and McGill University. I was the head teacher of an El Sistema type program called Encore! Sistema Québec where I had the privilege of teaching violin to children aged 5-12. I now reside in Montreal full time cultivating a private violin studio! I love teaching all types of ages because I believe if the student is really committed to learning the violin, I can help them achieve their goals! Outside of music and teaching I love dogs, hiking, kayaking, ice skating, snowshoeing, biking, and exploring everything about Montréal. I hope to help you achieve your goals in a positive environment and encourage your practice of the violin!
