What kind of experience do you have?
I've been teaching the violin since I am 16. Usually I teach privately, but I used to train small chamber groups and string orchestras. I am teaching with one of the best teaching method in the world: with the Hungarian Kodaly Method. With this method the student is able to reach a very high level after a few lessons.
