Teaching Philosophy

As a classically-trained violin teacher in San Diego, Adrian approaches instruction with flexibility, technical precision, and personalized learning. Drawing on his world-class musical education led by such exceptional pedagogues as Dr. Olga Kaler, Adrian has developed an exact, methodical approach to building strong foundational technique. He intentionally blends artistry and science in every lesson while adapting his teaching style to each student’s unique experience level, goals, age, and learning preferences. 

Rather than follow a one-size-fits-all rigid curriculum, Adrian believes the best results are achieved when lessons are catered to the student. He recognizes that everyone learns differently—Some students thrive when lessons are playful and engaging, while others prefer a more structured, deliberate approach.

Whether you are an adult seeking to refine your craft, or a young beginner taking your first steps with the instrument, Adrian is adept at providing results-oriented violin instruction for all players. He is proud to offer in-home violin lessons with a highly flexible schedule, providing students with truly personalized instruction that fosters not only technical growth but also a lasting passion for music.
