Frequently asked questions

I use a Suzuki-style approach to teaching.  In the first few lessons, I introduce the parts of the instrument, how to hold it, and how to produce a good sound.  I ask students to listen to and repeat simple rhythm patterns on open strings.  The first piece my students can expect to play is Twinkle Twinkle, which can usually be mastered within the first few lessons.

I have a B.S. in Music Education from University of North Georgia.

I charge $25 per half hour for lessons.

Over the years, friends and neighbors would occasionally ask me to teach their children violin, viola, piano, and cello.  I decided I wanted to get a degree in Music Education to make sure everything I was teaching was accurate.

I have worked with all levels and ages of students.
