About Patti
I love music and teaching music more than anything! I started piano and violin lessons in the 4th grade and never stopped, returning for an M.A. in violin at age 39. I've taught all ages, from 3 to 85+, from beginner to advanced, on both violin and piano for over 30 years. I teach with joy and humor because life is short, and we all need more of both! Besides, it's FUN to learn to play! Your lessons will be tailored to your learning style, goals, and ability to practice. Science shows that almost no other activity engages more brain regions at once than learning to play a musical instrument. We need music, and our brains love it! I use both the Traditional and Suzuki methodologies on the violin. Having taught from my home and in public, private, charter, and prep Schools -- as well as at a boys' rehabilitation camp -- I always find ways to help everyone learn to play well and enjoy the process. All you need are the 3 Ds: Drive, Determination, and Dedication, and I'll work hard to ensure your success.

To ensure that you make progress, I maintain high standards for you and myself. First, I evaluate your learning style, consider your ability, and the amount of time you're able to practice consistently. I respect your goals and will develop a plan tailored to you. That plan will include technique & technical exercises, scales, chords, inversions, arpeggios, etudes, music theory, AND pieces that are best suited to your level and progress. We'll rely mostly on pieces you like from all eras of Classical music, but we'll also include popular, jazz, folk, and contemporary styles. Lessons are fun because my "criticisms" are constructive, not punitive. I use both Suzuki (on violin) and Traditional teaching methods (on violin and piano). I have 12 graduate hours in Suzuki training, but I use whatever works best for each student. My ratings on other platforms are Exceptional, and I am happy to provide references from current and past students. The only things you need are Desire, Discipline, and Determination...and a working instrument!
