LBH Strings Studio

I teach private lessons for violin and viola students ages 6 and up, using both Suzuki and traditional approaches. I also offer Explorer Strings classes, small group classes for beginners (ages 7-10) where we cover the basics for posture and set-up for both hands and learn Pre-Twinkle songs by rote using a Suzuki-based approach.

I am the Associate Professor of Viola at the University of Florida and have twenty-five years of teaching experience. I currently teach advanced students at the collegiate level, but I have previous experience working with beginners as the Director and Master Teacher at the South Georgia String Project. My pedagogy training is from Rebecca Henry and Mimi Zweig (IU String Academy), and I have Suzuki certification for violin and viola book 1. I teach a pedagogy course at UF and train many of the area teachers who offer violin and viola lessons.
