Hi, my name is Jane! I will be a junior at Buffalo Grove High School in the fall. I have been playing the violin since I was four years old at the Betty Haag Academy, and I have been involved in the school orchestra since 3rd grade. I love playing music because of the way it makes people feel. My hope for every summer is that I can help my students become better players, have more confidence in playing with their school orchestras, and deepen their love of playing the violin.

I am highly dedicated to teaching my students as I have been taught these past 12 years. I have run a summer violin program for the past three summers and have loved working with my students and watching them grow and perform. Each of my students has shown significant improvement. I believe that anyone can learn to be a wonderful violinist with the help of a caring teacher and a lot of practice!
