About Anna-Claire
I have been playing violin for most of my life and I've been teaching consistently for the last few years. My goal is to give students a great technical and musical foundation that will lead to a unique, fulfilling, and memorable experience with violin!
I began playing the violin when I was six years old, and I went on to attend Denver School of the Arts as an orchestra major. I later graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder with a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance, where I studied with Professor Charles Wetherbee.
I have experience teaching both in person and online, and I completed the Suzuki Unit 1 teacher training with the Music Institute of Chicago.
I have experience in orchestral, chamber, and solo performance. I currently perform with Stratus Chamber Orchestra as Assistant Principal Second Violin. Other orchestras I have performed with include Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra and Boulder Symphony Orchestra.

About the lesson
- All levels
- English
Languages in which the lesson is available :
English
I teach primarily using the Suzuki method and Mimi Zweig's string pedagogy method. For beginners, I start with Suzuki Book 1. I believe it is important to utilize various teaching methods, as every student learns differently.
Lessons are planned based on the student's needs and goals. A typical lesson involves a warmup (scale or other exercise) and/or review before working on a piece that is appropriate for the student's level and discussing what to practice before the next lesson.
For online lessons, I can set up a shared google folder to keep notes from each lesson and other helpful materials. All ages and levels are welcome!

With Anna-Claire as your violin teacher, you will progress rapidly without feeling pressured. Anna-Claire has a way of breaking down even the most frustrating techniques into something manageable, and she celebrates every small win along the way. Beyond her skill as a teacher, she's a genuinely warm and encouraging person. Lessons and practice will feel less like a chore and more like something to look forward to. If you or your child are thinking about learning violin, I can't recommend Anna-Claire highly enough. You'll be in very good hands.
Anna-Claire is a very diligent and patient teacher. At all skill levels, she will help you reach your potential! She will make it fun for you, and before you know it, you will be on your way.
