Violin lessons for all ages, abilities and styles
In-Studio or Online
Laura´s number one goal as a teacher is to give her students not only the best violin instruction available, but also make sure they experience the love of music in a professional, fun, and pressure-free educational environment. Each student, children or adult, amateur or professional, receives individualized guidance using Suzuki, American and European methods. Laura designs each lesson according to her students’ abilities and continuously adapts her teaching approach to their interests and needs as they evolve over time.Music Theory is also included as part of the learning process, because it is an important aspect of mastering any instrument. Instruction is also available for students preparing for specific goals, including concert performances, exams and auditions, or playing in a school orchestra. Recitals and Master Classes are always voluntary, though highly recommended.
Laura has students as young as 7 years and as old as 70. She firmly believes that music has a profound impact on our well-being, both physically and mentally.
Tuition for standard weekly lessons
30-minute lessons: $250/month or $710/3 months
60-minute lessons: $475/month or $1350/3 months
Tuition is due in advance on the first of each month or on the first day of every 3-month interval.
Regardless of the number of lessons received per month ,4 or 5, your monthly installment remains the same. Most students take lessons weekly; however more frequent sessions are recommended for those who desire faster progress.
If a student is unable to attend their normal in-person lesson, they are encouraged to take it online at the originally scheduled time. Make-up lessons on a different date from their normal lesson time are provided with 24 hours advance notice, (excepting unforeseen circumstances), however the availability for make-up lesson times is limited. If you cancel the lesson within 24 hours of the scheduled lesson time, then you will be charged the full lesson fee. If the teacher cancels a lesson, either the lesson will be rescheduled at a mutually convenient time, or the student will be credited in a future session.
Sometimes copies of sheet music are being provided, however, students will also be required to print PDFs or purchase music to build their own libraries and comply with copyright laws.
The studio has a social media page where occasionally are being posted student photos or small video clips from recitals. If you do not want your child’s photos or videos posted, please let Laura know in writing.
