LAURA STEINER - PERFORMER, TEACHER, THEORIST
MY STUDIO
Private lesson lengths are as follows: up to 30 minutes for Beginning – Book 1, up to 45 minutes for Book 2 – on. Hour-long lessons will be given to advanced students based on teacher and parent discretion.
​
For students who are interested in playing the viola: at about age 11, students may switch from violin to viola or at that point start directly on viola. Younger children normally start on violin, an instrument that is better suited to their small size.
ABOUT ME
I have received a Master’s degree in String Pedagogy from the University of New Mexico, studying with Suzuki Teacher Trainer Susan Kempter. I am also in the process of obtaining Long-Term Training Credentials from the Suzuki Association of the Americas, and will be certified through Suzuki Book 8. I hold undergraduate and graduate degrees in viola performance, play professionally with several local orchestras, and have taught violin and viola lessons and ensemble classes at UNM. With these credentials and over 10 years of teaching experience, I believe that I am an excellent choice for a teacher for your child! Please contact me for more information.
