About Dave
With over a decade of experience in violin instruction, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to my teaching. My expertise encompasses a range of specialized areas, including advanced technique, sight-reading, and performance skills. I am dedicated to providing a personalized learning experience, tailoring each lesson to the individual needs and aspirations of my students. This approach ensures that every student, regardless of their starting point, can develop a strong technical foundation while also cultivating their unique musical voice. My goal is to not only teach students how to play the violin but to inspire a genuine love for music and performance.
In my teaching philosophy, I place a strong emphasis on nurturing each student’s growth in both technique and artistic expression. I believe in creating a supportive and engaging environment where students feel encouraged to explore their musical abilities and push their boundaries. By focusing on the key elements of technique and performance, I help students build confidence and skill, preparing them for both solo and ensemble performances. My lessons are designed to be both challenging and enjoyable, fostering a deep appreciation for the violin and the joy of making music.
Beyond my teaching, I have a keen interest in exploring various musical genres and attending live performances, which keeps me inspired and connected to the broader musical landscape. My passion for photography also allows me to capture the beauty of natural landscapes and the dynamic energy of live events. These interests not only enrich my personal life but also enhance my teaching, bringing a fresh and enthusiastic perspective to each lesson. This holistic approach helps me connect with students on a deeper level and inspires them to embrace their musical journey with excitement and dedication.

With a decade of experience teaching the violin, I offer a comprehensive approach to learning that blends technical mastery with expressive artistry. My lessons are designed to build a solid foundation in violin technique, ensuring students develop the skills necessary for precise and confident playing. Specializing in sight-reading, I help students improve their ability to interpret and perform music accurately from written scores, which is crucial for both solo and ensemble playing. Additionally, my focus on performance skills prepares students for recitals and auditions, helping them to present their music with poise and enthusiasm.
Each lesson is tailored to the individual needs and goals of my students, creating a personalized learning experience that addresses their specific strengths and areas for growth. I believe that a customized approach not only enhances technical proficiency but also fosters a deeper passion for music. By setting clear objectives and offering constructive feedback, I aim to keep students motivated and engaged in their musical journey. My teaching method emphasizes a balance between technique and creativity, encouraging students to explore their own musical expression while mastering the fundamentals of the violin.
In addition to my teaching, I am dedicated to staying current with developments in the music world and continually improving my own skills. My involvement in various musical activities and interests enriches my perspective and brings a fresh, inspired approach to my lessons. This commitment to both personal growth and professional excellence helps me to provide a dynamic and effective learning environment for all my students, nurturing their development and love for the violin.
