String Preparatory Program
The String Preparatory Program offers private instruction on
violin, viola, cello, and double bass. Lessons are taught by
competent UTA String Division students (at the undergraduate and
graduate level) under the supervision of the UTA String Faculty.
Here are some of the characteristics of the program:
- Flexibility in lessons:
You may choose between 30-, 45- or 60-minute private lessons.
- Flexibility in scheduling:
Not only do you have the opportunity to organize your schedule
privately with your teacher, but you may also choose between
14-week semester and 12-week semester.
- Flexibility in tuition
payments: Payments can be made in full at the beginning
of the semester, or in four payments.
- Student Recitals:
Students participate in a recital that is held at the end of the
semester in Irons Recital Hall. We provide an accompanist at no
charge to the students.
- Master Classes with UTA
Faculty: UTA String Faculty members donate their time to
provide free master classes for the String Preparatory students.
- Supervision of Teachers:
Each String Preparatory teacher is evaluated and supervised on a
number of occasions by UTA String Faculty to ensure their
quality of teaching.
- Suzuki Program: We are
also offering the Suzuki program for those interested in this
remarkable instructional method. This method is particularly
well suited to the younger students and involves the parent and
teacher as partners in the student's musical journey. Our
program precisely follows the teachings and philosophy of Dr.
Shinichi Suzuki and is directed by Christine Rewolinski. Ms.
Rewolinski is a Suzuki specialist registered with the SAA and
has many years experience in the program. Parents, for more
