Jill G. - Tutor in New York, NY (10001)

I have over 20 years' experience teaching violin, viola, and music theory. I absolutely love what I do! Whether you're a beginning, intermediate, or advanced student, I'm excited about working with you. I'm experienced with ages 4 through adult, and I'm very comfortable with both children and adult learners.

I have an adaptable teaching style and, since there are many learning modes, I will tailor my approach to what works for you or your child. I am well-versed in both the Suzuki Method and Traditional Method, and I've taught both styles for many years.

I have a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from Shenandoah Conservatory of Music, and a Master of Music in Violin Performance from University of Illinois at Champaign. I also have played violin professionally for 20 years, and I founded and directed my own community music school, Ocean Conservatory of Music, for 10 years.

I would love to guide you on your musical adventure, and I hope to hear from you!

Hi! I love teaching and playing violin, and I find that guiding students' learning is really fulfilling. I have played violin since I was five. I've taught violin, played professionally, and coached and played chamber music for the last 25 years. I also founded and directed a community music school for 10 years. I currently own the Manhattan Violin School, and teach there. I hold a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from Shenandoah Conservatory of Music, and a Master of Music in Violin Performance from University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. I teach children (ages 4 and up) through adults, and I'm very comfortable teaching beginner, intermediate, and advanced students. I use numerous violin methods (including Suzuki and Traditional methods) to tailor my approach for each student, and I form the style I use based on the ways the student learns. Last but definitely not least, learning should be totally FUN no matter how young or old we are!
