About Molly
I have been teaching violin for six years, working with 240 students, many of them younger beginners nervous about starting a notoriously difficult instrument. My own training combines early classical study with a strong personal interest in making the instrument feel approachable rather than intimidating for new learners. I would describe myself as an unusually patient and gentle tutor, a reputation I am proud of, since several parents have specifically sought me out after their children struggled with more intense tutors previously. My greatest strength lies in reading a student's frustration or discomfort early and adjusting my pace accordingly rather than pushing through regardless. Watching a nervous beginner move from tense, uncomfortable playing to relaxed, confident practice remains the achievement I am proudest of.

My violin lessons move at a genuinely gentle pace, prioritizing comfortable posture and relaxed bowing technique over rapid progress through repertoire, since rushed early habits tend to cause frustration later. I begin every new tutoring relationship with an honest conversation about any previous negative experiences with the instrument, since addressing that history upfront makes the actual learning process go far more smoothly. I check in verbally throughout every lesson, asking students to rate their own comfort level honestly, and I slow down immediately whenever tension or frustration appears. Repertoire is chosen collaboratively, prioritizing pieces students genuinely enjoy over a rigid technical curriculum. Parents receive a short, plain language progress update after each session, written without technical jargon.
