This course is for viola and violin students from the beginner through the high school level, and any age from 5-99! My goal is for my students to foster a healthy and long-term relationship with their instrument. The course focuses on practicing and truly understanding technique, with an emphasis on listening. Weekly assignments tend to include technical exercises, scales, and classical pieces of the student's choice. Basic improvisation is also an interest of mine and, I find, a valuable experience for my string students.

I believe repertoire is largely a matter of student taste. Students of mine have learned pieces in the Suzuki books and other classical repertoire volumes, but have also learned pop and fiddle songs according to their interest.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Violin Performance from the University of Puget Sound, where I graduated in 2015 before moving to Vienna to study privately for three years. I am currently on hiatus from a Master of Viola Performance degree at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague . I have been teaching violin intermittently since 2009.

While my musical education is classical, my performance interests are much wider. I have performed jazz and pop improv, and am currently exploring how hip hop can be implemented on the viola and violin.

Vocal health and freedom come from practicing techniques that enhance the voice and allow for exploring different styles. My goal is to help students gain confidence, understand how they can properly care for their voices while attempting a wide array of songs, and refine their delivery so that they can make an impact on the audience. I work for hands on with workshopping vocal choices and bringing out different colors and tones in the student's voice.

Have you ever asked yourself if you can also sing freely, while in control of your voice, making that desired tone? If you want to improve your singing in a fun relaxed environment, then you’re in the right place!
Hi! I'm Rana! I’m a professional singer in Los Angeles.
I have a masters degree in vocal performances, I am also a certified CCM teacher with specialty in singing contemporary music.
Studying classical music and singing opera gave me a solid foundation in vocal techniques and my performance experience as a rock singer made me a crossover singer/teacher. I teach multiple genres: from Classical Music and Opera, to Pop, Musical Theatre, R&B and Rock.
Whether you just started to sing for the first time, or have the experience, or even if you want to prepare a song for a special occasion, I can help you by creating a customized lesson plan in the best way that suits your goals!
I have a great passion for teaching and sharing my knowledge. Let’s meet and make music together!

Hi everyone! I teach keyboard instruments, music theory/analysis, and vocal coaching. I am trained both as a classical pianist and organist in my native Bulgaria and the USA. For more than 25 years I have worked as church organist, collaborative musician and vocal coach. I enjoy teaching my students how to unlock their potential and how to let music speak for itself. I meet my students where they are in their musical journey, and help them close the gap to where they want to be.
