PRIVATE LESSONS | VIOLIN

I believe art and music contribute profoundly to the intellectual development of children and are essential parts of a well rounded education! A student can expect to be challenged and inspired in my studio and be motivated to work to the best of their ability.

My children have been taking violin lessons for years. It is never easy to make the children practice; however, I can say that they now do not fuss (much) when I ask them to, and in fact, they have, from time to time, started practicing on their own without my insistence (they are 6 and 9 years old). That shows to me that they are inspired by Marie to play their violin.
