About
I am soon to be graduating from the Eastman School of Music with a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance. I have been playing the violin for 18 years as well as the piano for 15 years. I had a couple opportunities to teach a group of elementary kids as well as a single experience of giving an individual lesson a couple years ago. However, I greatly enjoyed the art of teaching and strive to become a teacher/professor in the future. I would be comfortable teaching beginner to intermediate level violin students (up to Suzuki level 10) and beginner piano students. I am trained in music theory so that would be included in lessons.
Teaching Style
My teaching style would be more dependent on the level of the student. Beginner students need more technical structure and knowledge of the basic building blocks of music. As they advance, musical knowledge such as theory, musicality, and imagination would be necessary. For more intermediate to advanced players, I would teach them on the historical knowledge of the music and how to master the art of violin.
Curriculum
I was brought up in the Suzuki method so I would start with that for beginners. Intermediate players could use other sources of music books.
