About
I have been playing the violin for over 15 years. I have thought in the United States as well as in Venezuela for at least two years. I have toured with orchestras from El Sistema of Venezuela in Asia, and I have participated in violin festivals. I am currently in my last year of undergrad in violin performance. I use different technics to teach, depending on what works best for the student. My first language is Spanish, so I would be more than happy to teach Spanish if the person prefers to. I am a very patient and friendly person with a lot of experience teaching kids, but I can also teach older beginners. I am open to finding ways that work for the student to make the experience fun and educational.
Music is so much more than just sounds. It is a way to create important values like responsibility and discipline, but also it is one of the most beautiful things to do. Music provides a lot of joy to my life and I like to transmit that when I teach. I also love to see how my students get excited as they improve and know that I am helping them achieve their musical goals.
