John Taylor - Violin Lessons

Introduction: I am a passionate and skilled violinist and student. I have been playing violin since the age of 7 and continue to study and play at University of Massachusetts Amherst. In the past, I have put together string quartets and have played in a variety of ensembles for different settings; musicals, formal concerts, weddings, etc.... I also have 2 years of experience teaching middle school violinists in my hometown. I recognize that each student is different and while I prefer to guide all students through a similar structure as the rest, I always make conscious and consistent efforts to evaluate each student's progression to determine what they need to work on the most. I love to teach others my craft. I believe everyone should be able to experience the power of music in anyway they can, and violin is one of the best! I have always loved music and I find the violin to be challenging yet rewarding, and I want to help others experience what I have!
