Private Violin Lessons for ages 3-17 // No previous experience required!

For violin and viola students, I use a combination of the Essential Elements curriculum, the Suzuki curriculum, and I also often compose original music tailored to the learning needs of each student. I want the student’s experience to be fun as well as educational, so in addition to the curriculum exercises, I will also be sure to add in some fun pieces that the student already is familiar with and enjoys.

​I have learned that being immersed in the world of music is vital for being a good teacher. Musicians who only teach and do not “cross-train” by performing on their instruments regularly and continuing learning simply do not have as much to offer to their students. I pursue all of these avenues actively, not only for my own benefit, but also for that of my students.

My primary goal as a teacher is to be a motivating and inspiring mentor and guide. As ​the famous​ Chinese proverb says, ​a teacher opens the door, but students must enter by themselves. ​​My highest aspiration is to show my students doors that they never knew existed, and giving them the tools to go through those doors on their own.

About Me

I have loved music for as long as I can remember.

I began playing the violin at four years old, and began singing in choirs at age ten. I sang with the Chattanooga Symphony Opera Chorus in their 2018-2019 season, where we performed beautiful pieces such as Handel’s Messiah, and Dona Nobis Pacem by Ralph Vaughn Williams. I studied opera and classical voice with Amanda Hyberger, professor of music at Chattanooga State University. I am continuing my vocal training with Joseph Bowman, B.M., and my violin training with Audrey Butler, B.M. I teach multiple classes at Christian Fine Arts of Forsyth, including the Middle School and Elementary Beginning Strings classes, Elementary Choir, and more. In my spare time I love reading, composing music, and swing dancing.

Education

I graduated from Bryan Homeschool Academy in 2017, studied opera and classical voice with Amanda Hyberger, professor of music at Chattanooga State University, and I am continuing my vocal training with Joseph Bowman, B.M., and my violin training with Audrey Butler, B.M.

For voice students, my teaching method will depend on which genre of music you are interested in pursuing. A few that I teach most frequently are classical, opera, and Broadway. On your first lesson, we will go over the basics of good breathing and posture, figure out your voice type, what genre of voice you want to pursue, and from there, I will choose a piece for you to begin working on, and starting with that piece, you will continue to learn how to improve your voice in amazing ways! ​I have learned that being immersed in the world of music is vital for being a good teacher.

Violin lessons: Fun-Filled journey! Lessons for children and adults!
Hello everyone! My musical journey began when I was just four years old, starting with the piano. Later, at the age of seven, I eagerly embraced the violin, adding its enchanting melodies to my repertoire. I achieved a professional mid-grade in both piano and violin. Fueled by my love for music, I moved to Rotterdam, Netherlands, to pursue a Bachelor's degree at Codarts University of Arts. Under the guidance of teachers like Natasha Morozova and Hed Yaron Meyerson, I refined my skills and nurtured my artistic vision. After completing my Bachelor's studies, I continued my musical exploration in Codarts' Master's program. Alongside my classical training, I've always been intrigued by the therapeutic potential of music. In 2023, I earned certification in Music Therapy, expanding my horizons and deepening my connection to the healing power of music. In collaboration with my colleagues, I am member of the Olga Trio. Our mission is to highlight the works of women composers throughout history. Our debut performance at the IV Concurso Nacional de Interpretación de Obras de Mujeres Compositoras was a proud moment, affirming our commitment to amplifying diverse voices in music. Beyond classical music, I've always been drawn to exploring different genres and styles. As a member of the Jong Metropole Orchestra in 2023, I relished the opportunity to collaborate with musicians from diverse backgrounds, pushing the boundaries of traditional musical conventions. In every note I play and every project I undertake, my passion for music shines through. It's a journey of exploration, growth, and discovery, and I'm excited to continue sharing my love for music with the world. I've been teaching during the last 8 years. I am flexible with the students needs and I embrace fun and creativity in my lessons.

I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University. Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone.
