Why you should start violin with me?

Early exposure to music helps develop strong foundation and musical sensitivity, and you can do it through learning the violin.

Parental involvement is crucial for the child, as the child will not know what to practise and how to practise. For the parent to attend the class together with the child also further enforce what will be taught in the class at home. This level of involvement can create a supportive and nurturing environment for the child’s musical development.

Student will learn to play by ear before learning to read notes. This method of teaching places a strong emphasis on ear training.

Instead of starting with technical exercises and etudes, we will learn a piece that is likely familiar to the ears. In doing so, students will develop the technique and musicality while playing something tuneful.

We will focus on tone production and musical expression. Students are encouraged to listen to recordings of professional musicians to develop a sense of phrasing, dynamics and interpretation.
