About Me
Learn a little more about me as a violin teacherNever Too Young
Many people ask me how young to start their children on the violin. I started when I was 3 years old!
Connected
Scheduling weekly lessons with me is easy with my online booking app. I can keep you up to date with lesson notes in Google Docs. I regularly post practice tracks in my Facebook Group
Location
I teach students from Chattanooga, Ringgold, Lafayette, and the surrounding area out of my home in Rock Spring, GA.
Method
My students to learn to play by ear as well as by reading notes. You will learn a few new skills with each piece, building and expanding a solid technical foundation.
Experience
I have been teaching for over 25 years, majored in violin performance at Covenant College, and have played with the Chattanooga Symphony for 20 years.
Perserverence
Learning violin may seem painfully slow at first, but I promise you will cry tears of joy hearing your child play “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” beautifully for the very first time.
