My violin and viola lessons are tailored towards students of all ages, with lessons based around their current musical and personal needs. 

I have experience in many practices such as stretching, relaxation, technical work (scales, exercises, etc.), musical games as well as various other learning activities. 

I focus a lot on releasing restrictive tension in the body, as my goal is to give my students the most possible freedom they can have to express themselves.

I aspire to teach fun and engaging lessons, with consideration on how music fits into the students everyday life; I endeavour to enable them to thrive not only as a musician, but as a human being.
