Best Violin Lessons in Fontana, WI

Students can expect a relaxed, fun, and encouraging atmosphere for learning. The violin can be an intimidating instrument- you will make a lot of unpleasant sounds before you start sounding great- and that's okay! I'll be there to guide you and help you reach your goals.

If you're already an experience player, you can expect me "workshopping" your technique. We will analyze your form, practice patterns, and playing style, to ensure that you are growing and improving from the moment we begin. I will push you to become the most expressive player that you can become, but at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

What young students can expect:

- Preparing for entry into school orchestra
- Polishing up school orchestra repertoire
- Learning new material and scales
- Perfecting their technique
- Preparing for NYSSMA
- Preparing college audition tapes (I do have the ability to record these as well)
- Learning to play with confidence
- Learning vibrato

What adult ...

I've taught violin for over ten+ years to hundreds of happy students of all ages. I promise you'll have an exciting and fun first lesson! My violin playing has been featured with Kevin Olusola (Pentatonix, "Heart Attack"), Glee, Perla Batalla (Leonard Cohen), and featured on dozens of records with dozens of LA artists (Hayley Kiyoko, Zac Poor, REO, Yore). I have a BFA Performer Composer degree from the California Institute of the Arts, I graduated in 2012.

I focus on the Suzuki method with an emphasis on technique, rhythm, and sight reading. If you are looking for a teacher with a fun, fresh perspective on learning the violin, I'm your guy!

I love tailoring lessons to my students! Music is personal and I want to make sure you're learning what you're interested in or need to learn in order to prepare you for auditions or keep up in groups you play in. I always ask students for a list of music they're listening to or want to learn - nothing's off limits!
