    Lisa was a fantastic teacher and mentor for my daughter during the 4 years she gave her lessons. She inspired her to practice hard, gave her advice on extra musical experiences, and instilled a deep love for classical music. She made a huge difference in her life!

    Frequently asked questions

    Students can bring music that they want to learn or I will suggest pieces and exercises to help them build violin playing skills. I use Suzuki Book 1 for beginners and gradually add more music and studies when they begin to advance. I do ask that students consult me before buying an instrument or accessories. 

    Violin Performance degree from the Mannes College of Music and the University of Nebraska, Lincoln. I have taken Suzuki Teacher Training for all 10 Violin Books and was awarded  outstanding private teacher by the Nebraska String Teacher Association. My success with teaching has helped students win solo competitions with the Lincoln Youth Symphony along with students winning scholarships and awards for their accomplishments with the violin over the years.

    Free trial lesson “orientation “ session. Lessons payments are handled by the Omaha Conservatory of Music. Tuition may be paid in installments raning from montly to yearly payment plans. Financial aid is also available with both need based and merit based scholarships. Students who are 14 years or older may apply to become a Sprouts Assisstant and earn money by helping young students in group lessons. 

    There are also group lessons and classes available. Call the Omaha Conservatory of Music for more information. 402-932-4978. 

    I have a performance degree in music. My first referrals were from people that knew me as a violinist in the area such as other violin teachers and public school Strings specialists.

    I have worked with all ages from preschool age students up to adults. 

    The most recent recital where students showed how much they learned and shared with others by performing for an audience.

    Ask school music teachers in your area or other teachers what they know about the person you are considering taking lessons with. If they don’t do a trial lesson or interview/ orientation, have the teacher play something for you. Ask if you can play for them and see what they would do to help you make it sound better. This can be done over the phone!

    Think of questions to ask them that are important to you!
