About Isla
With 7 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor of Arts in Music with a violin emphasis, I specialize in preparing students for graded exams such as ABRSM, Trinity, and AMEB, as well as competitions and school recitals. My approach is both structured and supportive, focusing on essential technical drills, scales, arpeggios, and sight-reading to build a strong foundation. I believe that consistent practice and attention to detail are key to success. Each lesson is carefully planned to address technical skills while keeping students motivated and engaged. I emphasize the importance of technique as a tool for musical expression, helping young learners develop both precision and artistry. Building performance confidence is a major part of my teaching. Through regular mock performances and positive reinforcement, students gain the assurance they need to shine on stage. I tailor my instruction to meet each student’s individual goals and learning style, ensuring steady progress. My aim is to create a positive, encouraging environment where students feel supported and inspired. Together, we work toward achieving technical mastery and expressive playing, preparing students to perform with consistency and joy.

The teaching approach celebrates cultural richness and stylistic variety, inviting students to explore music from global folk traditions, early baroque ornamentation, and jazz phrasing. Lessons weave these diverse styles together, encouraging flexible bow speed, stylistic intonation, and idiomatic phrasing that bring each genre to life. This variety inspires expressive freedom and deepens musical understanding.
Students learn to structure their practice across styles, developing technical adaptability that serves any musical context. By embracing this diversity, they grow not only as violinists but as versatile artists able to shift seamlessly between moods and traditions. Every lesson challenges students to think creatively while maintaining a solid technical foundation.
Expressive diversity is nurtured alongside technical skill, empowering learners to make bold artistic choices. Whether navigating intricate baroque flourishes or the swinging rhythms of jazz, students gain confidence and control. This approach builds musicianship that is both structured and vibrant.
By supporting each student’s unique journey, the process becomes an exciting exploration of sound and style. The goal is mastery, yes, but also joyful discovery and personal expression. Together, we unlock a world of musical color and depth.
