My philosophy of teaching violin blends the rich traditions of classical music with the child-centered approach of the Suzuki method. I believe in nurturing a love for music through listening, imitation, and joyful practice, while also instilling a strong technical foundation. By fostering a supportive environment that encourages creativity and expression, I aim to cultivate both musical skills and a lifelong appreciation for the art of violin playing.
