About Jana
Hi! I am a professional violinist and violist, currently based in the Orlando area, and I have been playing violin and viola for 24 years! I hold three higher education degrees in violin performance from McGill University and Indiana University, and have won auditions with the Greenville Symphony Orchestra, and the Orlando Philharmonic orchestra. I currently also perform with the Charleston Symphony, the Jacksonville Symphony, the Brevard Symphony, and the Coastal Symphony of Georgia. I have performed solo recitals at various institutions all over the world including in Austria, Germany, Rhode Island, New York, Washington State, South Carolina, Florida, and Canada, and have been a member of various string quartets including the violist at the Silver Bay string quartet in Silver Bay, New York, and the violist in the Saratoga workshop string quartet on Whidbey Island, Washington.
Alongside performing, I have been teaching for the past 12 years both privately and at institutions such as the West Island Music Academy in Montreal CA, the Vivace Chamber Players in Seattle WA, and Trala inc. Online Violin School! I have taught over 130 students ages 3-80 and have coached multiple teen chamber music groups. My students have gone on to win excellence awards in their regional solo and ensemble competitions, win first chairs in school orchestra, and many students who began lessons with me are able to join local youth orchestras in as few as four months!

My teaching style is all about making the experience with the violin a fun and productive time! I believe anyone can learn the violin or viola, and that it isn’t talent that grows this skill, but a good routine and attitude. Lessons offer a fantastic extra curricular for kids and teens, and adults a chance to grow (or re-grow) a skill that will add life and color to their week, along with keep their brains healthy!
A lesson will usually go as follows: After a few catch-up minutes, such as talking about our days, we jump into playing through assigned scales or repertoire and I correct mistakes quickly and efficiently, spending time addressing any technical question the student may have from previous practice. In lessons we occasionally do deep dives into concepts such as how to read music notes, or how distribution. We also go over broad musical ideas such as why a piece was written and its history. Students will usually learn one to three pieces per semester and perform selections at recitals, requiring them to play at a high level in front of their peers, encouraging dialogue between students!
In lessons students learn from Suzuki Books 1-3, Sitt Studies, Kreutzer Etudes, Schradiek exercises, Jazz standards, the Fiddlers Fake Book, Rieding and Seitz Violin Concertos, Hymnal books, pop songs and more! Younger students must learn through a standard approach such as the Suzuki method which offers them the opportunity to grow as violinists at a high level by building a strong foundation. Adult students are given more freedom to choose what they like to learn, within parameters according to their technical level.
Recitals are held three times a year, in May, August, and December and are conducted online through Zoom. Students enjoy playing for each other and get multiple chances to comment positively on their peers. Recital attendance is required unless emergencies arise, and if a student cannot attend, they are required to send in a video of their final piece which will be played for the studio and commented!
Please note that students under the age of 11 must take in-person lessons.

Jana has been teaching my 12 year old daughter for about 6 months. I highly recommend her! She is very organized and punctual. I know that if we have midweek questions or schedule changes we will get a quick reply
Jana is also patient with my daughter..she allows my daughter the freedom to learn at her own pace and in her own style. We are so happy we found Jana on Superprof!I am a current student of Jana! I was nervous for a long time to learn violin especially since I am starting at 31 years of age, but Jana is an excellent teacher and fills me with confidence. She is very kind and patient and has the perfect balance of explanation and demonstration for her lessons. I honestly could not recommend her enough to anyone looking to learn violin!
I've been taking violin lessons from Jana for two years and it's been lovely picking up a new hobby with her. She is laid back in her style but thorough, knowledgeable, and an intuitive teacher. I take lessons online so I enjoy getting together with the rest of her studio for recitals via Zoom. I highly recommend Jana to anyone looking for a teacher who is engaging, funny, and immensely talented.
Jana is an exceptional violin teacher who combines technical mastery with an intuitive ability to connect with students of every age and skill level.
I am one of Jana’s violin students, and I recently participated in my fourth recital in the past 2 years under her guidance. It was inspiring to see a wide range of students—from 8-year-olds to 80-year-olds, from beginners to advanced violinists—all confidently sharing their progress, which speaks volumes about Jana’s skill as a teacher.
Jana meets each student exactly where they are. She brings both technical expertise and an intuitive understanding of her students’ needs, knowing when to introduce challenges and when to reinforce the fundamentals. Her progressive teaching style ensures every lesson builds naturally on the last.
I wholeheartedly recommend Jana to anyone on Superprof who is serious about learning the violin, whether just beginning or looking to refine advanced skills. She is committed to her students’ growth and creates a supportive, motivating environment that makes even difficult concepts feel achievable.
Choosing Jana has been transformative for my own playing, and I’m confident she will be the right fit for many others looking to reach their musical goals.Jana is a fun, personable, and extremely knowledgeable violinist who is great at meeting you where you are at and pushing you forward! I have been working with her for several years, beginning with zero experience in reading music or playing an instrument and she has walked me through patiently. I’ve learned many pieces, can now read beginner to intermediate pieces, have learned multiple shift positions, and am beginning vibrato :) I have come much farther than I ever expected and her zoom style lessons make it easy, flexible, and possible even with busy adult life. Definitely recommend her!
