Will it be hard or easy for me?
This is a great and important question. When I made this course, I tried to make it in a way that I would want to learn if I was starting to learn violin. All the time I thought about how to make it easy for the student so they would progress quickly and as easily as possible. So all the lessons are made in a friendly way with patient explanations that are very clear. I would love if you would try to learn the first lesson alone in order to see if the rest of the course would be good for you. So I believe someone who gives it time will reach amazing results, quickly. I feel very comfortable with this course, and I'm here for every question you might have

My Mission
When I was 11,my parents gifted me with tickets to see a famous violinist perform. I was so excited, and at the end of the concert, I excitedly brought my list of questions for her - and she laughed in my face.
Since then, my mission as an educator is to erase gatekeeping from the music community. I believe anyone can learn to play the violin, and while having a teacher is always ideal, it's still possible to learn even on your own, especially when your focus is on songs.
So I created this course as a gift for you. I hope you see it as a gift to yourself if you take the time to do it.
I've had students who were 5 and students who were 70. There is no age limit to enjoying music.
