Before working with Hannah, I was really struggling to keep my right wrist loose and flexible when bowing. I knew it should be flexible, but I didn’t know how to accomplish that. I was also discouraged that I had started to learn so many tunes, but never really mastered any!

Hannah helped me adjust my bow hold and gave me practice tips so that I could improve my bowing and ultimately be able to get my tunes up to speed. Alongside the bowing work, she’s also given great suggestions for ornamentation and bowing patterns.

What I appreciate most is Hannah’s willingness to help in between lessons - I never feel stuck or have to wait to ask a question! I also love the way she incorporates the Marco Polo app into our communication - it’s been really easy to upload questions or progress updates and get a few tips back, so that I’m continuing to improve all the time.
