“I have learned a lot from my lessons with Shadwa. She has a knack for explaining technique, for making the connections between the physical movement and the sound produced. (Yes, it really does help to stand up straight!) She takes a personal interest in her students, which makes for a great lesson atmosphere. We established longer term goals that we could work towards; I appreciated her patience and creativity. Even scales became more than just boring drills! I definitely recommend her as a viola teacher for adults!”

—Christine, adult viola student

“Shadwa is awesome! She’s very patient and understanding of student needs. She’s also very encouraging and helpful, whether you’ve had violin experience or not, and makes learning to play so much fun!”

—Shelby, beginner violin student

I love teaching and have been doing it for over a decade. I believe private lessons are an essential component to successful musical development and growth. Each lesson is tailored to fit my student's needs and interests. It is my hope that students develop the tools they need to become independent musicians. I strive to create a warm and supportive atmosphere that fosters not only growth in technique, but in character, personal discipline, and a long-term appreciation for music.
