I have been teaching private violin lessons in NJ in Basking Ridge and Bridgewater area since 2000. Since that time I taught a great amount of children of different ages and levels. I enjoy working with kids and watching them grow and develop into young adults with great love for music and ability to play the violin on pretty high levels by the time they graduate. Almost all of my students are enrolled in their school orchestras, many played with NJ Youth Symphony and NJ Regional Orchestra after successfully auditioning to get in. I also hold my class recitals twice a year which gives my students an additional goal to practice. Some of my you

I am really passionate about music, especially the violin. I have played professionaly in orchestras since the age of fourteen. As of recent, teaching violin, as well as beginner piano has become my main focus. I am a Suzuki trained teacher. My Suzuki training has really taught me how to structure my lessons in a step by step fashion. However, I don't rely only on my Suzuki training. I also employ many techniques and strategies that I've learned throughout my studies and career that help students avoid some of the pitfalls that many people learning the violin fall into.

Eastanbul Violin/Viola/Conducting Lessons
1 Review
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. I then mix it with Suzuki books and basic music knowledge. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Sometimes they have their own choices of songs they want to play / perform and share with the family, so I focus on exactly what my student wants.

Sam & Rachel’s Violin & Viola Lessons

At Sam & Rachel’s, we strive to bring the best out of our students. We believe one on one lessons are so important and essential to a student’s growth in music. One on one time allows for us to give the student undivided attention in the areas they require to learn. In big group settings, like ensembles, students can get unintentionally swept under the rug. That’s where we come in!
Sam & Rachel have been teaching private lessons on Long Island, from studios, in their homes, and even substituting for other colleagues, including each other. They have just recently moved to Brooklyn and want to continue spreading

"Singing tone" is not a figure of speech to me - I am a concert baritone as well as a string player. I also love the teamwork and close interplay of chamber music, both performing and coaching. Lastly, even the simplest songs can have character, beautiful sound, and clear phrasing. All these qualities make music an art and a pleasure, not a chore.

Rozanna Weinberger Violin Lessons
Rozanna Weinberger · New York, NY
WHO OR WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START TEACHING?
I come from a musical family and it wasn’t unusual for us to put on family concerts, whether for our neighbors in our garage or formal stage. From early on as a child I passionately loved music but was also inspired by young students my age, who were devoting much of their young lives to playing and mastering an instrument. While this meant working hard, I was always motivated by hearing incredible concerts of music I had a passion to play.
I was inspired to start teaching because I had great teachers. Many of these teachers were inspiring because of how great they played, some because of their inspiration, passion and incite about the music and others because they had a refined understanding of technique and how to play with ease, comfort and confidence.
In addition I developed a great passion for how to play with naturalness and ease because when I was 15 I broke my neck! While I was fortunate to have recovered from this incident without any residual effect on my movements, but continued to have technical challenges due to the fusion in my neck as well as muscle trauma around the effected area. This challenge would also prove
My mother. From my youngest age, I recall listening to my mom sing songs as she did housework throughout the day. She would make up melodies effortlessly and from this I learned there was a naturalness to music that makes it universally appealing for everyone.
I was also super inspired to take lessons and be surrounded by young colleagues at music camps that practiced hard and loved music.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT YOU JOB?
I love that my work is diversified because I try to lead a creative life. I love teaching and helping students discover easier ways to play and more confidence in their abilities. Its especially fun when students discover areas that are too tense, particularly in shoulders and upper arms. When players realize bowing doesn’t have to feel so hard or strenuous, that too is a great thing. I also love creating violins that are part of my educational philosophy to encourage creativity in children on multiple levels. I love helping students discover new possibilities by cultivating their creativity.
WHAT TYPES OF STUDENTS HAVE YOU WORKED WITH?
I’ve worked with students young & old, professional and amateur. I believe music and the pursuit of refining a skill and artistic nature are good for the soul, whether one pursues a career or not. Often non professional students want to enjoy an outlet and also don’t want to be judged for their playing level. As such I try to create an atmosphere of mutual respect where player can focus on their love of learning.
With younger students, or those aspiring for a career in music I think a couple areas of focus are important. The 1st is to help student organize their technical movements so they feel free yet effective in playing technique and expressing themselves musically. The 2nd thing I consider important is helping students have a creative approach to their learning process.
TELL US ABOUT YOUR PASSION FOR TEACHING
As touched upon in previous question, helping students play with technical ease, using their body to play with ease and joy, is rewarding as a teacher. And its something I love to work on because I worked through these issues ‘the hard way’, having broken my neck at 15 and having to unravel the difficulties that no professional viola teacher could fully grasp. While this was a challenging road, I learned from studying the most fundamental components of technique, how to learn from the kinesthetic signals of the muscles to hone and refine my technical approach. What I’ve learned is something I’m passionate about sharing, in part because when students develop kinesthetic awareness in their approach they can ultimately become their own best teacher.
There is something phenomenally empowering about discovering theres no technical problem one can ultimately unravel for oneself. In this regard my teaching is unique compared to most other approaches. I’ve also written significantly on this topic as I believe many players and teachers need a better understanding of the mechanics of technique, starting with the skeleton and how that impacts efficient use of muscles.
The 2nd part of my passion for teaching comes from a desire to cultivate entrepreneurial abilities for students. If students can learn to rely on their creativity there is a better chance they can navigate changing professional waters in this day and age. That means using ones creative skills to discover new musical possibilities for oneself and the world.
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE ASPIRING STUDENTS?
Follow your heart. As Marc Anthony once said, ‘If you love what you do and cultivate your genuine desire and love of music, the discipline to work hard will generally follow. As Marc Anthony once said, ‘If you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life!’
