How does this work?

Once you’ve paid for your first four lessons, I’ll email you to confirm. Then we schedule your weekly lessons. Simple! If you live close by, lessons can be in-person. Chances are you’re somewhere else in the world – that’s no problem – I use Google Hangouts, and you don’t even have to leave your house! If you already have a violin and bow, you’re all set. If not, I’ll help you find a source for rental or purchase wherever you happen to live.
