I teach Suzuki Violin Method to young children and Traditional
    European Method to the older children and adults.

    The enrolment is for regular weekly lessons for the entire academic
    year.  
    A strong commitment to study and excellent attendance is
    required.   
It is my goal to offer the highest and most
accessible form of instruction to any student
who has the desire and commitment to learn.

  • Every lesson I try to create
    a welcoming environment
    by acknowledging and
    positively reinforcing my
    student's strong points.

  • Only in such a productive
    place can I gradually
    introduce the new elements
    that will improve student's  
    playing.

  • I believe that since every
    student's physical makeup
    and temperament is unique,  
    each individual's lesson will
    be unique.

  • I encourage creativity and  
    musicianship, supported by
    powerful technique, from the
    Twinkle to the Mozart
    Concerto and beyond.  
    I have been very lucky to have studied Suzuki Method with John
    KendalI, the famous teacher whose  effort and determination
    brought this wonderful Japanese approach to violin pedagogy  
    to United States.  

    I also teach Traditional European Method mainly influenced by
    Ivan Galamian.  It is with this method that I learned to play
    violin as a child in Prague and continued in the Conservatory.

    "I couldn't have asked for a
    better teacher for my
    daughter! Lucia is kind,
    caring, and pushes each
    student to do their personal
    best in a positive way."

    "Lucia helps turns a bunch of
    notes into beautiful music –
    even the exercises."

    "Lucia's professionalism and
    natural gift of teaching made
    a huge difference in my
    daughter's confidence, and
    now she is eager to play and
    try new things."

    "She has the ability to break
    down techniques to their
    most simple form and then
    build it up to allow you to
    incorporate it into your daily
    playing."


    "Her warm, encouraging
    personality takes the stress
    out of learning. I leave every
    lesson feeling as if she has
    given me exactly what I need,
    and I have grown because of
    it."
