About Curtis
With 9 years of experience as a violin tutor, I bring a rich background and deep passion for teaching the violin. My journey in music has equipped me with extensive knowledge and a refined skill set, which I am eager to share with students at all levels. My goal is to help each student develop a strong technical foundation while also fostering a love for the expressive potential of the violin.
I specialize in several key areas: technique, sight-reading, and expressive performance. My approach to technique focuses on perfecting essential skills such as bowing, finger positioning, and posture. Through structured exercises and personalized feedback, I help students build precision and control, which are crucial for advancing to more complex pieces and improving overall performance.
Sight-reading is another area of emphasis in my lessons. I work with students to enhance their ability to read and play new music fluently. This skill not only broadens their repertoire but also boosts their confidence in handling unfamiliar material. By practicing sight-reading regularly, students become more versatile and adaptable musicians.
Expressive performance is at the heart of my teaching philosophy. I guide students in interpreting music with emotional depth and storytelling, helping them connect with their audience on a deeper level. My aim is to develop each student’s unique musical voice, ensuring that their performances are both technically sound and artistically engaging.

Our lessons start with a strong emphasis on technique. We focus on fundamental skills such as bowing, finger positioning, and posture, using targeted exercises to build precision and control. By developing a solid technical foundation, you’ll be better equipped to tackle more complex pieces and overcome technical challenges with ease.

This skill is crucial for expanding your repertoire and gaining confidence in various musical contexts.
Expressive performance is central to my teaching philosophy. I guide you in conveying emotion and storytelling through your playing, helping you connect more deeply with your audience.
