Explore emotive violin instruction for passionate learners aspiring to master the violin.

I’m Asher! Welcome to my page! I have been teaching violin for 8 years and have been learning violin for over 20 years. I’ve had a long journey in selecting a field I not only excel at, but also enjoy, from trying out Computer Science to Psychology to Music Composition and even History. I am very happy to have settled on teaching violin! I hope I can help my students achieve their violin goals, regardless of what they may be. Outside of teaching violin, I enjoy cooking and baking, fishing, writing music, and playing video games. Teach me something about what you enjoy too! I strive to have not only a good student-teacher relationship, but also connect with my students on a personal level. I believe that if my students enjoy what they’re doing and feel heard during their lessons, they will be more inclined to practice and will achieve their musical dreams faster.

I have been learning violin since I was 4 and have made many mistakes along the way. In making mistakes, I have learned how to fix all sorts of musical, technical, and rhythmic problems that a student might face on their violin journey. Beyond that, I strive to make lessons fun and engaging through the selection of exciting and interesting songs, unique exercises and etudes, and, most importantly, connection with my students. I also aim to accommodate any student’s needs. I have experience teaching students as young as 5 and as old as 57. No matter what your age, skill level, or background, I can ensure your satisfaction with the quality of my lessons. Interested in playing difficult pieces like “ Zigeunerweisen?” I will set you up for success with etudes and repertoire that improve musicality and technical skill. Just looking to play fun songs from TV shows you know? I can find and even transpose any piece you’re interested in playing. I’m looking forward to working with you!
