Hi, I'm Serena and I am a composer, arranger, strings player, and tutor.
I enjoy listening to and playing any style of music from Classical to Symphonic Metal and Pop! As I am also an arranger, I am able to come up with music for students based on their interests and level. I have gigged in orchestras and bands for years, so I can also help students on a performance level if that's what they are looking for.
I love music as a universal language and form of expression. I feel that it is very valuable in a therapeutic and developmental sense, due to the opportunity it gives people to show their emotions, while also developing coordination, listening skills, music reading, and concentration.
