Mimi and Tom bring to the teaching experience a rich and diverse knowledge of traditional European violin training. Mimi has extensive training and experience in the Suzuki approach which is specially tailored for beginning students, while Tom has a thorough understanding of the jazz idiom and improvisation.Together, we tailor a course of study to meet the needs of the individual student. We have an open door teaching policy which means all students are encouraged to listen (quietly) to other students lessons. In other words, come early or stay late, there is always something to be learned.

Group Lessons
Report
Group lessons are a supplement to the private lesson and they prepare the child student both physically and musically to play the violin. At first students will use "pre-instruments" made from cardboard. This will help develop good posture and bow hold. Using traditional folk songs like Twinkle, Twinkle students will listen, clap, and march.
