Ann from Ohaupo

I have been teaching Violin and Viola for over 25 years and myself and my family have recently moved over to Ngahinapouri. I am available for both Violin and Viola lessons from absolute beginner level through to grade 8 ABRSM. I can teach on a one to one basis or in small groups. My lessons will be tailor made for each child according to his/her ability and level of commitment.
If you are struggling with technique or feel you are not making enough progress. Highly Strung music tuition is for you. I incorporate a wide range of violin methods to deliver an effective but also enjoyable and fun environment.
