Description:

My approach to teaching is a perfect blend of attentive listening, interactive activities, and encouraging affirmations accompanied by constructive feedback. While my Suzuki training serves as my foundation, I take into account the individual needs of each student by incorporating traditional methodologies. I understand that financial constraints may limit some students from accessing quality musical training, and therefore, I offer a sliding scale payment plan.

I am genuinely fascinated by my students' viewpoints on music and technical aspects. It delights me to engage in playful learning activities with my younger pupils. As a teacher, I derive satisfaction from fostering personal and musical growth in my students.

My 12-year-old daughter has learned the fundamentals of the violin excellently under Grace's tutelage. Grace has also sparked a deep affection for the instrument in my daughter, motivating her to continue her musical journey.

For anyone interested in learning the Violin, I highly suggest Grace. She possesses a professional demeanor, is punctual, and an excellent communicator and listener (qualities that I, myself, learned to appreciate). From my observations of her teaching my child, as well as my experiences with numerous other tutors across diverse fields, I can confidently say that she is an outstanding teacher for children. With such great skills, I am certain she would also be extremely effective instructing adults.

As a music instructor, Grace surpasses expectations. My daughter was eager to pick up the Violin and Grace proved to be the ideal mentor for her. Her guidance was especially remarkable given my daughter's blindness in one eye. Grace took extra care to ensure my daughter's comfort and instilled in her the confidence to play the Violin with ease. Grace tailored her lessons to suit my daughter's age and level of understanding of complicated music concepts. I wholeheartedly recommend Grace to anyone looking to enhance their musical skills. She is an exceptionally gifted musician, incredibly intelligent, and a phenomenal educator.
