We have experienced many teachers in the past 13 years for viola and violin and James has that special gift to be able to reach children of all ages. My daughter is 15 and is an accomplished violinist and violist and she needed to prepare for two auditions during our stay in Los Angeles. My son is a 3 rd grader and needed to prepare for a violin seating audition and James was amazing with him too.

He style is easy going but purposeful, it is amazing how much she has been able to help them in a few weeks. My son said he looks forward to his lessons and wants to do well. She broken down difficult music into little pieces and when it is all put together, it will sound great. We highly recommend Alison. Alison is primarily a violin teacher but was able to really help my daughter win professional level Viola music. She is pleasant, professional and connects well with children and teens.
Alison was an excellent teacher on the violin. She has clearly been teaching for some time as she was very prepared for the lesson by asking key questions ahead of time and then addressing them on the first lesson. Alison also took the time to make hands on corrections on the fundamentals of holding the bow, violin, addressed chin and shoulder rest concerns, etc. I highly recommend Alison for adults and children. Excellent teacher.
