" My 13 year old daughter has been working with Claire for just about 3 years. We are so impressed with the progress she has made and how Claire tailors each session to her specific needs. Claire is encouraging, patient, kind and so committed to each child she teaches. She finds music that both inspires and drives them. My 7 year old son began with her less than one year ago, and has already made great strides in his music reading and bow control. I cannot recommend highly enough. I'm so grateful that my children have the opportunity to learn from Claire."  Lauren H


" My daughter has been taking violin lessons from Claire for over two years now. She's learned so much, but most importantly has developed a love of playing. Claire is a wonderful teacher. She knows how to push my daughter loves playing duets with Claire and Participating in the recital was a wonderful experience for her. We look forward to continuing our lessons and watching our daughter grow into a master violinist!"  Liz L

The instruction is age appropriate and fun. My daughter is progressing wonderfully and she very looks forward to her lesson every week." Lauren


" Our 8 year old daughter started asking to take violin lessons about a year ago. After confirming this is something she was serious about, we started lessons with Claire six months ago. Claire has been very patient during these beginning stages, while furthering our daughter's musical abilities and interests. Our daughter is beginning to see her hard work pay off and experiences how focus and practice help achieve her goals. We cannot wait to see how she continues to progress under Claire's tutelage. Listening to Claire play is certainly inspiring!"  Kathleen
