About Orla
I have 7 years of experience teaching violin, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Historical Performance focusing on Baroque Violin. I especially enjoy working with young children, using playful and age-appropriate strategies to develop strong ear training and aural skills from the very start. My lessons include storytelling, rhythm games, movement, and simple melodies to make learning both fun and effective. I draw on Suzuki and Kodály-inspired methods to build a solid musical foundation while keeping things light and engaging. I believe that early musicianship grows best when children feel inspired and excited to explore sound and rhythm. Through interactive activities, I help students connect with their instrument and develop listening skills that support their overall technique. Every lesson is designed to nurture imagination and joy in music, making the violin a friendly companion rather than a challenge. I aim to create a warm, supportive environment where young learners can flourish at their own pace. Together, we build not only skills but also a lifelong love for music. If you want your child’s musical ear to grow with fun and creativity, I’m here to guide that journey. Let’s make violin learning joyful and full of discovery!

My teaching approach focuses on developing strong bowing techniques to help you achieve a rich, expressive tone on the violin. We work on mastering various bow strokes like détaché, spiccato, and legato, each essential for creating different musical colors. I emphasize dynamic control and precise bow arm movements to give your playing depth and nuance.
Through dedicated exercises, you’ll build the foundation needed for confident, fluid bowing. I tailor lessons to your goals, whether you’re just starting out or preparing for group singing and choir accompaniment. Together, we focus on smooth transitions and clear articulation in your bowing.
I provide consistent feedback to help refine your technique and develop greater control. My goal is to support your growth so that you can produce beautiful, resonant violin sounds with ease. With patience and practice, you’ll notice your bow arm becoming more relaxed and expressive.
You’ll gain the skills needed to bring music to life, whether playing alone or with others. Let’s work together to unlock your full bowing potential.
