Lessons: violin, cello, viola, bass
String Instruments Lessons

I use a variety of method books depending upon the needs of the student. Below are my go-to books:

The Fun Books

Essential Elements 2000 for Strings: violin, viola, cello, string bass

Suzuki volumes

Solos and Etudes, book 2

Wohlfahrt Etudes for violin and viola

170 Foundation Studies for Violoncello, Vol. 1 by Alwin Schroeder

Piano Lessns
Piano Lessons

I use the method books by Faber & Faber supplemented with other collections. I like the way it teaches theory and technique with the Lessons. Other supplementary collections I like are:

Essential Keyboard Repertoire

Jr. Piano Method by Molineux

The Library of Piano Classics

Guitar Lessons
Guitar Lessons

I use the Guitar Fun Book to start a beginner. Then I transition into The Classical Guitar Method by Bradford Werner.

I supplement with different sheet music (lead music) to teach chords while reading a melody.

Recorder Lessons

The Recorder Fun Book is great for a beginner.

I have also used:
