Fast Facts
Violin and viola lessons for majors and nonmajors are highly individualized to meet the goals and needs of each particular student. I strive to give each student the structure and tools they need to succeed in school and also in their careers.
In lecture classes I highly value discussion and participation. Lecture is partnered with student presentations, in-class discussions, and examining how and why the material matters to us as professionals as well as Christians.
