About Sonia
Performing within a leading American chamber ensemble allows me to refine the technical precision I share with students in my Seattle home studio. My 6 years of experience include holding Suzuki Association of the Americas Certification for levels 1 through 5. Instruction covers everything from fundamental tone production and tuning by ear to advanced spiccato and staccato bowing.
I guide students through shifting positions and vibrato with the same exacting standards used for orchestral playing. My process centers on steady progress through grade exams like ABRSM and Trinity. Expect a methodical approach that emphasizes clarity in every musical gesture.

Starting with a diagnostic assessment allows me to understand exactly where a student stands before we set a practice plan. This honest diagnostic helps me structure our time so we avoid wasted effort.
Work focuses on concerto repertoire such as Mendelssohn, Bruch, Sibelius, and Tchaikovsky. We integrate orchestral audition standards into our daily routine.
Technique matters. My 6 years of experience dictate how I break down complex bowing technique to ensure consistency.
Building a foundation for high school college audition tracks remains a priority. Finding the poetic voice within demanding scores is deeply rewarding. Observing the transition from early struggle to musical fluency brings real satisfaction to our work together.
