About Zachary
I have trained classically under world-renowned teachers throughout the United States and Europe, and my passions have also brought me to jazz, pop, hip hop, and folk music, as well as improvisation in all of these styles. I would be delighted to help you learn a new tune, develop the basics of jazz improvisation, or help you prepare for your recital!

I'm looking forward to hearing you play and making some goals. Let's dive in!
I have been teaching since I was in high school, but I have had a substantial teaching studio since 2021.
I hold a Doctorate and a Master's in viola performance, as well as a Bachelor's degree in violin performance.

I like to start off with an introductory lesson to get to know the student. We discuss the student's goals, where they stand currently, and what we would focus on to move them forward.
After that I try to see my students once a week, though some students have lessons less frequently. My teaching focuses on the science and art of practicing, and on truly understanding technique, with an emphasis on listening. Weekly assignments tend to include technical exercises, scales, and classical pieces of the student's choice. Basic improvisation is also an interest of mine and, I find, a valuable experience for my string students.
Students who have goals outside of classical music will have a different focus, though, spending more time on learning by listening, improvisation, and perhaps transcribing. It all depends on the student!
all kinds! Students as young as five and students in their 70s! I love setting up new students, as well as preparing advanced students for competitions and auditions.
Look for someone who knows how to play their instrument and has performance experience. Look for someone whom you personally connect with. Look for someone whose teaching excites you!
I have recently been teaching a student who wanted to start learning violin to play Disney songs to his young children. He was very motivated, and established a strong foundation on the instrument quickly - after just a few months he was playing music from Disney movies!

In just a handful of online lessons he has helped me improve my tone and technique exponentially. Excellent at tailoring lessons based on the student's skills and areas of struggle.
Mr. Zachary Hamilton is very professional and patient. His instructions are very detail and helpful.
Zachary is incredibly devoted to my success as a violin student. He prepares weekly lesson notes, takes time to listen to the music I'd like to learn, and is incredibly invested in perfecting my technique. Week after week he returns with the same enthusiasm, patience, and dedication to my growth as a student. Aside from being an incredibly talented musician and astute educator, he is also super personable and a joy to hang out with. I highly recommend taking lessons with Zachary!
I love Zachary's teaching methods. He is very friendly and easy to understand. He is very passionate about teaching and it shows. I have progressed a lot after only a few lessons, and I will continue to take lessons from him. I highly recommend him :)
Zachary is a great instructor and friendly , you won't feel the stress of a regular class.I can say that I am always excited to learn because of the motivation he give. I wasn't sure at the beginning that the online lessons would work effectively and that I will see great results. I have already had 12 sessions and still have 8 left and planning to have more in the future. He is so patient and gives a clear guidance to improve your level. Each week there is a prepared plan of what we will focus on depending on the performance which means you take the full use of every minute in the class. Also ,the weekly homework or exercises given helps you to know what to do to improve between each class.
Zachary is on time, patient, prepared and gives productive feedback. Our daughter enjoys working with him. Her confidence and understanding of music is increasing greatly. His communication is clear and inspiring.
What I enjoy most about my lessons with Zachary is how personable he is. You will not find a more patient or kinder instructor. For me, I decided that I wanted to learn how to play the violin later in life. I have never played an instrument my entire life. Zachary did not make me feel like my new start was impossible and he does not patronize. These are things that I have encountered from teachers in the past. Zachary meets you where you are in your abilities and helps you realize your potential. He is always willing to go the extra mile to help you on your journey. I highly recommend Zachary as a teacher if you are beginner to the most advanced levels. I look forward to each session! If you’ve read this far, stop what you’re doing and book him.
Zachary helps my son consider a lot of aspects of technique while he is playing. He is persistent and thoughtful and is able to relate well. He provides his observations as well as takes time to ask questions in order to try to better understand how and why my son is playing in order to guide and advise.
