Introduction: Teaching is my passion - I love the process and results equally! Recently I moved to California and am located in Irvine , CA .I can teach private one on one violin lesson for any level students. I offer traditional or Suzuki Method teachings. Im available to teach any level including absolute beginners. I make an individual lessons plan for each student to make sure they develop and improve to their full potential and continuously. I try to make my lessons fun and informative. I have a DMA Degree in Violin Performance and Literature from Eastman School of Music,one of the top schools in the world. Also I trained at Suzuki Institute in Ithaca,NY - one of the best in the field, for my Suzuki teaching. I was a violinist for Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra (Rochester,NY) for last 12 years before I moved to Irvine (2017). My schedule is flexible and I can travel to student's home to teach. But students can also come to my teaching studio at my house in Irvine. Teaching is my long lasting passion. Ive taught privately from age 18 (38 now) and was on faculty of music schools and University at Buffalo. I love a process of teaching a lesson, giving information, showing tricks, methods on instrument and watch my students grow musically and technically while enjoying their lessons. I will be happy to teach you and give my best for your violin improvement!

I have both of my two sons learning violin from Ainur for over two months. I can testfy boys' noticable improving trace in their play over these two months under the great help from Ainur. By tweaking their skils from basic posture, bow holding, intunation to more advanced stroking, sound characters, musicality etc., I heard a quality sound from their play I never heard before. This is especially obvious for my older son Samuel, though he had been in private lesson under other teachers for almost 7 years. In the mean time because of the quality improvement in their play, their appreciation and interest of music is also increasing. I thank Ainur sincerely for her tremendous help on my sons in their learning violin. -Gen

I’ve been taking lessons with Ainur for only 2 months and my progress is very noticeable. She gives a lot of hints and her teaching style is friendly and professional. Great teacher, highly recommend to anyone, who wants to improve their technique fast without sacrificing the quality.

As a parent of a student, Ainur is very easy to work with. She tries her best to accommodate our changing needs. As for quality of instruction, my daughter's music director at school remarked on her improvement very shortly after lessons started and is satisfied with her progress since.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I would ask a fee of $60-65 (depends on level - beginners $65) per hour, and $30-32.5 for half-hour. My pricing is sort of set but I am willing to negotiate in individual cases if asked.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I do my evaluation of student's playing level, his/her goals (short-term, long-term) and make my plan to help them achieve it. I talk about my plan with them and then start teaching.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated with Masters and Doctorate in Violin Performance and Literature from prestigious Eastman School of Music in 2009. I have top education from them and I use it to fullest advantage of student.
