I enjoy learning variety of students that come to me and seek violin or viola lessons. Each and everyone got a gift, and it is a wonderful task and a privilege to open those gifts in my students. Also variety of personalities asks me as a teacher to be versatile in explaining similar tasks. And that makes me grow as in oder to help someone to learn, I need to learn what exactly that person needs in learning from me.
