Private Lessons

We offer one on one lessons weekly for our students. These lessons range from 30-90 minutes depending on the needs of the student.

For Beginners

We welcome young children as early as age three to begin their musical journey through the Suzuki method. This approach is based on the idea that every child can learn, given the right environment. With the support of parents, students learn by listening, imitation, and repetition, much like learning a first language. Early lessons focus on developing a natural, comfortable playing posture, producing a beautiful tone, and building strong listening skills. Most importantly, the Suzuki approach creates an atmosphere where learning the violin is fun, supportive, and part of daily family life.

For Advancing Students

As students grow, we expand their training by weaving in the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) curriculum. This structured program provides a clear pathway for developing technique, theory, and music reading skills, while broadening repertoire and artistic expression. More experienced students are encouraged to set goals like performances, exams, auditions or festivals, and deepen their understanding of music as both an art and a discipline. By combining the strengths of Suzuki and RCM, we ensure that our advancing students continue to grow with confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of music.
