About Harper
I am a dedicated violin tutor with over 8 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor of Music in Chamber Music with a focus on violin. My teaching integrates music theory, aural skills, and sight reading directly into violin practice, making learning both practical and meaningful. I emphasize understanding scales, intervals, and harmony through hands-on bowing and fingering exercises, helping students connect technique with musicality. I work closely with exam candidates, guiding them through repertoire, technical studies, and performance preparation. For students aiming to strengthen overall musical fluency, I focus on developing expressive phrasing, intonation, and rhythmic precision. Each lesson is tailored to individual goals, balancing structured practice with creative exploration. I encourage students to engage with music actively, helping them become confident sight-readers and versatile performers. By combining technical development with musical understanding, I aim to make practice both effective and enjoyable. My approach nurtures discipline, focus, and expressive freedom. Whether preparing for exams, recitals, or ensemble playing, I help students progress steadily while cultivating their love for the violin. My goal is to guide each learner toward becoming a well-rounded, confident, and expressive violinist.

My violin teaching approach is structured around clear goals and purposeful practice. Each lesson begins with daily warm-ups to build technique and focus. We work on technical etudes tailored to strengthen intonation, bowing, and agility. Expressive phrasing and musical interpretation are woven into every exercise, helping students convey emotion and character in their playing. I guide students in developing effective practice routines, balancing technical work with repertoire exploration. Stage presence and performance readiness are integral, whether for recitals, auditions, or ensemble playing. I provide creative challenges that inspire curiosity and personal expression, while offering encouragement to build confidence. Lessons are customized to each student’s learning style, ensuring steady progress while keeping music engaging and enjoyable. I emphasize achieving milestones and celebrating improvements, making the journey motivating and rewarding. By combining structure, creativity, and expressive freedom, I help students thrive both technically and artistically on the violin.
