About
With two degrees in violin performance earned from the Cleveland Institute of Music, numerous national and international Scottish Fiddle competition victories, Suzuki Certification, and nearly two decades of teaching experience, I prioritize a holistic and customized approach to teaching the violin. My focus is on ensuring student comfort and ease of playing, regardless of their chosen repertoire.I tailor my curriculum to each student's creative goals and aspirations, while also emphasizing practical and mechanical aspects of playing a stringed instrument. I also place emphasis on developing rhythmic awareness and tone production. In addition, I follow the Suzuki approach for younger students, which emphasizes parental involvement in their musical education. To teach the basics while broadening their exploration of various styles, I supplement traditional classical literature with fiddle tunes.

For 7 years, Brandon has been instructing my child with a harmonious blend of Suzuki and fiddling songs. Despite the challenges imposed by the pandemic, he persisted with virtual lessons. We are exceedingly content with my child's growth, thanks to Brandon's unwavering support and forbearance.

At the onset of the pandemic, Brandon enthusiastically ventured into online teaching. His weekly sessions proved to be an enriching experience, as I learned to play Scottish and Irish melodies by ear. Although this posed a considerable challenge, the sense of accomplishment was immeasurable. Moreover, Brandon extended his support whenever I preferred to follow sheet music. His knowledge and proficiency are truly invaluable.

Brandon consistently brings his exceptional knowledge, talents, experiences, and enthusiasm to every violin lesson, and as a result, my children have flourished under his guidance. My daughter is currently reveling in the opportunity to sing in Gaelic alongside him. For seven years now, Brandon has been a cherished member of our family, a true gem.
