Greg is located in Harrisonburg, Virginia and is available for violin and viola lessons throughout the Shenandoah Valley during the school year. He believes in an individualized approach to teaching. Each student is unique and requires a personal game plan when it comes to learning the violin or viola. The repertoire for each student is catered to the individual’s wants, needs, and goals. Greg stresses the importance of finding a proper set up in order to prevent injury and find comfort in playing a notoriously uncomfortable instrument. His ultimate goal is to make sure that each student has fun and can learn how to express themselves through music.
