I've been teaching students to play Irish, old-time, bluegrass, klezmer, cajun and improvising on the fiddle for 18 years. I teach a lot of absolute beginners but also a fair number of students who've played violin or another instrument before and want to bring music back into their lives. Though I specialize in fiddle styles, I also teach classical music and reading for students who are interested. My main goal as a teacher is to make the lessons a fun and joyful experience so that the student will naturally want to practice without feeling like its a chore. Lessons are organized with an old-school oral tradition meets high tech approach. Though students learn everything by ear, I provide a recording of each song and technique to help remember the tune and practice with. In addition, I have a wiki site which keeps track of every lesson so students can easily check what they need to practice every time they sit down to play. For each lesson summary, there are links to recordings, fun play-along tracks and video lessons. I've also started a Youtube channel called "Fiddlehed" to provide further material for my students as well as for people around the world who want to learn more about fiddling. Check it out to see how I teach. Thanks, Jason the Fiddlehed
