Perfect! First and foremost, She is absolutely lovely to be around. She is patient, able to be in the moment with the student she had at that particular time and her fees are more than reasonable. She is very knowledgeable about ALOT of different styles of music and she is always happy to hear about musicians that are new to her. My favorite thing about her, though, is the way she smiles and lights up when she sees me doing something right that she has just thought me!!! It’s the best. I just wish I had her all to myself!!!! Everyone should take lessons from her!!!

Ruth's patience and skill in communicating her knowledge to others is unparalleled by any other music teacher I have ever had. She is talented not only in violin but also in teaching her craft, which is not always the case with a musician of her high caliber. I will take lessons with her forever, or until she retires.
