What My Students Say
“Kirsten was our daughter's first violin teacher for three years when Kirsten was a college student at Susquehanna University where I serve as a professor. Kirsten is always well organized, patient, pleasant and positive. She is always smiling. My daughter made great strides in violin with Kirsten as her teacher and she loved and looked forward to her lessons. Our family highly recommends her as a tutor!”
