violin, ukulele and voice teaching

New York City

• I taught so much, that children recognize me almost anywhere in the city
• I create silly songs, that children sing long after the end of the course
• Children experience music physically by dancing to rhythms, clapping melodies, humming low to high, while moving from a squatted position to standing up, etc.

I can look back on a successful teaching career using all styles and genres of music, from classical to jazz, to popular music. My goal is to always put students at ease and create a fun environment that also boosts students confidence and curiosity towards the subject at hand. I hope to open the children’s minds to new possibilities beyond music and I incorporate all kinds of exciting information, sometimes hidden in magical stories to spark discussions and allow to dream up new ideas. I have a good deal of experience teaching group violin and ukulele classes as well as chorus classes for children. Some of my students moved on to have successful music careers, however my main goal is to provide a save and fun environment where a child’s mind can grow.
