Becky OBoyle
Rebecca OBoyle has been teaching violin and viola students for more than 30 years. She received her bachelor’s degree in Viola Performance with a Minor in Suzuki Pedagogy from the University of Denver. She has played in the Tulsa Philharmonic, the Colorado Springs Symphony, the Chattanooga Symphony, the Nashville Symphony, the New Mexico Philharmonic, and the Santa Fe Symphony. She maintained her love of teaching and taught many wonderful students in her private teaching studios around the country.
Her teaching philosophy is that positive reinforcement, praise and encouragement make learning easier and more fun. She prefers to teach using the Suzuki approach but is open to other methods and supplementary pieces. She has taught students from age 4 to 80.
Becky has two grown children, Ryan, 24, who lives in Atlanta working as a civil engineer. Katie, 21, attends the University of New Mexico. She will be graduating soon with degrees in psychology and art.
Becky also enjoys nature and the great outdoors and is excited to try skiing again after 35 years off.
