Question for USC and Colburn studends...and for anyone else...

August 16, 2007 01:08

After six years my teacher has suggested that I started looking for teachers elsewhere...particularly in the L.A. area. (i'm from San Diego) She didn't give any names but to check out teachers from Colburn, USC, LA Phil, etc... I found two so far...Pamela Goldsmith and John Hayhurst. I've e-mailed both but so far have only heard back from Ms. Goldsmith.

My questions is does anyone know how these two musicians are as teachers? They both teach at USC so I'm sure they're both very good. Does anyone have suggestions for any other wonderful viola teachers in the L.A. area?

I'd greatly appreciate anyones input!

Suzuki Book 3 Violin Teacher Training...

So 8 hours a day of non-stop Suzuki Violin Teacher Training and observation for the past week. Despite it being so tiring it has been a great learning experience. All the sleep deprivation and headaches have been worth it. Look how effective this method is!
