Introduction: I have been teaching adults and teenagers how to play violin and mandolin since 1986. I teach online and in person out of my home in Granby Massachusetts. I teach all styles, but specialize in traditional ones like bluegrass, celtic, traditional irish, and classical of course. I have taught at the Northampton community Music Center as well as the Keene community Music Center in Keene New Hampshire. I play Viola with the pioneer Valley symphony orchestra, something I have been doing since 1989. I work with all ages and teach 30 minute lessons and 60 minute lessons
