Teaching Philosophy
My approach to teaching is about finding out what the students want, and I am happy to help them to get there. If the student wants to be a professional musician, I will help them to achieve the goal, like being a solo, chamber, or orchestral member, and we can discuss what level you are pursuing. For those who seek music simply out of joy and fun, I will help them to achieve their own goals, like playing some music they like. Joy and play are essential as details of successful learning at any age. Violin lessons should be a fun and enjoyable experience. With patience and consistent practice, we will get improve and build up the foundation every single day.

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
