About Isla
I am a violin tutor with over 10 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor of Arts in Music, specializing in violin performance. My background spans solo recitals, chamber music, and orchestral playing, giving me a well-rounded perspective on musicianship. I focus strongly on building confident stage presence and preparing students for auditions with personalized strategies. Interpreting advanced repertoire is a core part of my teaching, helping students develop both technical skill and expressive depth. I have worked extensively with high school performers aiming to improve, conservatory students refining their craft, and competition entrants seeking to excel. Each student receives tailored guidance that addresses their unique goals and challenges. I believe that preparation and mindset are just as important as technique. My approach blends disciplined practice with artistic interpretation, encouraging students to find their own musical voice. Whether you are preparing for your first recital or aiming to compete at a higher level, I am here to support your journey. Together, we will unlock your potential and reach new heights of musical excellence. Let’s take your violin skills to the next level!

My violin teaching approach centers on clear goal-setting and structured practice routines tailored to each student’s needs. We begin with daily warm-ups to build technique and focus. I guide students through technical etudes that strengthen finger agility and bow control. Expressive phrasing is a key focus—bringing music to life with emotion and nuance. Together, we work on stage presence, helping students feel confident and poised during performances.
I prepare students thoroughly for recitals, auditions, and ensemble playing by simulating real performance conditions. This builds readiness and reduces anxiety. Whether a student thrives on detailed plans, creative challenges, encouragement, or expressive outlets, I adapt my teaching to match their style. Each lesson balances discipline with artistic freedom, fostering both skill and passion.
I believe clear structure helps students progress steadily, while creative challenges keep learning exciting. Encouragement is constant because confidence grows through support. My goal is to help students not just play the violin, but to connect deeply with music and share that connection with others.
