The Complete Musician: A West Hartford Violin and Viola Studio

My daughter started taking lessons with Ryan when she was 6. Fast forward two years later, I cannot say enough great things about the experience we have had with Ryan. Because of him my daughter simply loves playing her violin and have made many strides. Thank you Ryan for your patience and ability to connect with young children. We love your sense of humor and talent!

Ryan has been an amazing teacher to my daughter. She decided that she wanted to try playing the violin and, in less than two years, Ryan has been able to increase her confidence by instilling knowledge in her and allowing her to achieve great potential. Since meeting Ryan and starting lessons with him, my daughter has been invited to play with orchestras that are typically offered to older children and this is a true testament to his ability to deliver material and instruct her in a way that helps her grow. In a very short amount of time, she went from not being able to play a note to playing complex pieces on stage as part of orchestra ensembles. You can’t go wrong! He gets to know his students individually and is a joy to be around. Absolutely fabulous teacher!

My two kids have had violin lessons with Ryan for the past four years. Ryan is a true teacher who works with each student as an individual and knows how to strike the right balance between gentle encouragement and pushing them to do their best. Highly recommend!
