violin lessons -
With Wendy Goodwin
I am passionate about inspiring children to explore their
love of music through violin. Many programs are one
size fits all...you're paying for a lease. You're
paying for marketing. This is not always the best for
families as a whole.My lesson studio is tailored to the
unique interests and learning style of your child. You
don't have to be an expert musician yourself in order for
your child to succeed at violin nor do you have to drop all
of your other obligations so that violin dominates your
family's life.
Music lessons are about building confidence, creativity,
relationships with both child and family, commitment to
goals and...fun!
With 14 years of experience as a private instructor, I am
also an active performing musician and recording artist in
not just Classical, but Jazz, Celtic and Folk. I hold
a Master's degree in Violin and have taught in public,
private and collegiate school settings. I have a very
low turnover rate amongst my students and can provide many
references. Best of all, I am a mother and I
understand intimately the privilege it is to be an influence
in a child's life. I only want the best for my
daughter and I know that you feel the same about your child.
I welcome enthusiastic beginner, intermediate and
advanced students from age 4-19. For more information
including references please e-mail me at

or call 503.860.7688. Fall schedule begins the week
after Labor Day.
 Education:
Ms. Goodwin began the study of violin at
age three. Childhood experiences
included private instruction with Jay
Gilbertson (Suzuki Method), Aida Baker and Julie Coleman as
well as participation in youth orchestras
including All State, Music in May & Portland
Youth Philharmonic. Wendy graduated
Magna Cum Laude from George Fox University
in 2000 with a BA in Music. In 2002,
Wendy completed her MM in music performance
at Portland State University where she was a
graduate assistant to Dr. Keith Clark and a
private student of Carol Sindell.
