I have zero experience and Linnea is so patient, easy to talk to and a great teacher! She was also very prompt but I never felt rushed. Looking forward to more sessions.

About Private violin/viola tutor
I am a dedicated, fun, and loving teacher who has been teaching for over 20 years. I inspire my students to learn to love music and also to enjoy the hard work and dedication that comes with being a musician I love the moment when a student understands something for the first time! That lightbulb moment is so exciting, because they are learning not only about music, but about themselves and how they learn. It's especially wonderful to see a student have a breakthrough after working very hard for a long time, it makes it all worthwhile to both of us :) It’s important that students join a musical community in order to help inspire them and share their joy of playing with others working towards similar goals. So I help students find local groups to play with - including youth symphonies, quartet programs, prep programs, or local amateur orchestras for my adult students. I took some time off teaching to get my Professional Viola Performance degree at Manhattan School of Music 2023-2025, and then to go on tour with Hans Zimmer! I just moved to the Chicago-land area, and opening up my studio again for 2026 with a ton of new insight and experience to share!

Ms. Linnea Marchie is an excellent instructor for my daughter. She is enthusiastic about teaching violin and brings positive energy to each lesson so that my daughter looks forward her session and actually practices almost everyday ( It is amazing). We like Linnea very much.
