“TO LOVE WHAT YOU DO AND FEEL THAT IT MATTERS --
HOW COULD ANYTHING BE MORE REWARDING?”
Nugent Studios Policies and Guidelines
- Do you want to learn to play violin?
- Do you want to learn to be a better violinist?
Lessons are mainly taught in Greeley, CO, however Skype lessons are also available.
Whether you are interested in taking lessons to get a higher chair in your school orchestra, to prepare for honor orchestras, all-state, university auditions, or simply to learn an instrument after all these years, I can help you. Every musician needs certain basic fundamental skills, but lessons are tailored to your individual needs and musical desires.
I can teach you any style you are interested in learning, even if it isn’t traditionally something your instrument does. I am classically trained and this foundation helps formalize my teaching, but also enjoy many alternative styles including bluegrass and Irish fiddle. The lessons I teach are designed to help you learn to be self-sufficient so that you don’t NEED to take lessons in order to continue to improve your playing.
Learning the basics of the violin is very simple, but mastering the instrument is a task that you can work on for your entire life. The problem-solving skills, self-discipline, creativity, and confidence you develop by learning an instrument can be transferred to any discipline imaginable. Learning an instrument is not difficult with the right teacher, but it does require hard work over time.
I have taught people ranging from age 4 to retirees and have helped students learn how to begin playing, make all-state, and audition into university programs. Let me help you!
