Julia is a true profession with an outstanding depth of knowledge that is rare. She is a true master yet she puts on no airs and is very down to earth. She is kind, compassionate, patient, makes learning fun and her ability to teach an instrument as difficult as the violin is impressive. She makes learning easy. A true gem. Grateful I chose her as a teacher.

I am an adult beginner, and Julia is everything I hoped for in a violin teacher! I have been studying with her for a little over 6 months now. -She has high standards for all students, even if you are an adult beginner ( yes, I want my teacher to be as strict to me as she is to her 8-year-olds). I really love that she takes my learning violin as an adult very seriously. And learning the violin you really want to be serious and "picky". I love her detailed comments on my playing as it helps me also look for the same things during my regular practices. -She tailors lessons to your needs. If I am struggling with particular string crossings, she will ask me to play a specific exercise that addresses that. And her feedback/suggestions for fixing a habit is very structured, so you know what to do when you come across a similar struggle again. Like playing the part with different speed, different rhythm and slowly overcome your problem step by step. -She balances her class well with etudes and repertoire. As I said, I am serious about this hobby and love classical music. I prefer not to rush and build techniques the right way. She gives me technical exercises every class along with standard repertoires. We've been working through exercises in Wolhfhart and Shradieck, and those are really difficult etudes (for me), but I really have seen huge improvement in bow control and speed after practicing them. If you ever wonder about picking up the violin or another instrument, do it now! Why not? I am so glad I did, and Julia really helped me improve quickly. She is kind, extremely talented and knowledgeable! Good luck and be sure to practice 40 hours a day! :)

SERIOUSLY one of the BEST PART of my ceremony! She made my dream of feeling like a princess come true. It added such elegance to the atmosphere and made so many of yes teary eyed.. even myself.. walking down the isle to a beautiful cover of “a thousand years” with a cello and violin was really beyond my wildest dreams.. I’m so glad she and her sister agreed to make that happen for me.

Just wanted to thank you Julie for the great music which you provided for my family on Mother's Day. You played exceptionally well, which was not hard for you considering you are very musically inclined. The violin performance you displayed was passionate, enthusiastic, and of high quality. The music you played was of all genres which allowed all of my family to enjoy the music. We were ecstatic that you were able to play with Jennifer (Cellist), it was an honor to have the opportunity to hear you both play as you are great musicians. My family and I loved the violin (Julie Choi) and the cello (Jennifer Choi) and look forward to hearing again. Lastly, I would like to say that I am standing currently saying Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!!!!! If anyone is thinking or in need of music you cannot go wrong with Julia Choi at your next event, she is a great musical entertainer!!!
