About Margaret
I am a professional violin and fiddle instructor offering online lessons for kids and adults including adult beginners. I have performed in orchestras, chamber music groups, wedding music ensembles, bluegrass bands, and country bands. I have played violin since 1988 and taught since 2003. I hold a Bachelor of Music (violin performance) from San Francisco State University and an A.A. in Comprehensive Musicianship (music theory and performance) from De Anza College.

I teach classical violin and bluegrass fiddle to adults and kids age six and older, beginner and intermediate levels, and welcome adult beginners. I teach online lessons only.
I offer an approach to classical violin studying the Strictly Strings and Suzuki Books, emphasizing technique, reading music, and music theory. I can also provide tutoring for school orchestra members and strings class students. I offer the option of written homework.
I teach bluegrass fiddle using an approach designed to help students be able to learn both by ear and with sheet music, and to prepare to play with other musicians or attend bluegrass jams, as well as play with good technique and posture. Students use the book Jack Tuttle's Bluegrass Fiddle Primer, by Jack Tuttle, if they can already read music. Students who do not yet know how to read music should start with Strictly Strings Violin Book 1.

I have been taking violin lessons from Margaret for approximately two years. She is an extremely knowledgeable, talented and kind individual and teacher. I am an adult learner, and I've wanted to learn to play violin for a long time, but I was interested in a particular type of music. Margaret supported my interest from the beginning and has been flexible enough to teach me music theory and skills in the process of pursuing my interest. Margaret is also an extremely patient teacher. She has been willing to answer all of my questions even when it means jumping way ahead of my knowledge and skill base - a hazard with adult learners! She is also incredibly supportive, coming up with new ways to address every challenge I run into and willing to reiterate these skills when I forget. Online learning has its challenges, but Margaret has a wealth of ideas for making this format work for her students. I am so grateful for having found her "online"!
As far as amazingly talented...you'll have to check her out online...on You Tube. She rocks! :)View more recommendations
