How did you get started teaching?
Clara teaches classical violin to students of all levels and calibre. She has 11 years of private teaching experience under her belt, from children as young as 4 to adults. Her teaching methods range from Suzuki for beginners to method books written by her derived from her own rigorous learning experience as a child violinist. For students who are looking for a proper and serious start on their violin journey, or transitioning from amateur to professional/college track, she will be a suitable fit.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
1. What do you want from playing violin?
2. How much do you want it?
3. How much time are you ready to invest to reach your goals?
