While I believe one-on-one lessons are the best way to learn violin, I also teach by Zoom.

Approach to teaching violin

I am always gratified when a student makes violin his or her life’s work, however strongly feel there are many reasons to study a musical instrument besides being a professional. The most important reason is entering the magical realm of music. Playing an instrument is different from anything else you do. It is a completely new way of looking at the world. I have many busy adult students who take lessons just for one reason: it is a beautiful escape. Benefits of learning violin include discipline, focus. mental activity, dexterity, fine motor coordination, and a greater love for music.

Letter from a parent

“My daughter, Miranda, has been taking violin lessons from Ann ever since she was in third grade. She is now about to enter eighth grade and is playing beautifully, thanks to Ann’s experienced hand. Ann is constantly challenging Miranda with ever-harder material, but also knows how to coach her through the inevitable bumps along the way. I would recommend Ann to any parent who wants their child to learn the violin, whether from the ground up or at an advanced level.“
