About Joshua
Instruction should mimic the clarity of a well-played scale. Placing the bow on the string, we examine the immediate impact of your arm weight and posture. I provide custom scale and etude sheets for each student to ensure that your practice remains purposeful throughout the week.
My 13 years of experience allow me to troubleshoot complex orchestral passages or grade exam requirements with minimal confusion. The BMus training from McGill manifests in my emphasis on nuanced tone production. I observe your left hand position to suggest subtle adjustments that improve intonation and ease of shifting.
You will find that mastering the mechanics of staccato or vibrato becomes accessible when we break them into logical steps. Bringing your violin to our first session will help us get started.

Actually, my connection to the violin began with a deep fascination for the physical mechanics of sound production. Balancing a BMus from McGill with years of Conservatoire study taught me that musicality is a discipline rather than a mystery. I frequently coach performance-focused students and returning hobbyists who seek a clearer understanding of left hand agility and shifting positions. My approach relies on 13 years of experience to address posture and tone production with surgical precision.
Intermediate learners often struggle with spiccato bowing or vibrato, yet these hurdles are simply technical milestones to be resolved. Helping 498 students navigate these specific challenges has given me a refined perspective on how to teach scales and arpeggios effectively. Could your current practice routine benefit from a more structured and disciplined focus?
