“All three of my children have studied violin with Helene Bergman, starting in 2009 and continuing to today. Helene's patience is a marvel and she has an extraordinary ability to teach the discipline and the art of violin, while nurturing joy and love for music.”
- Pamela N. "Helene, apart from being a gifted violinist who toured Europe and the U.S. with orchestras and chamber groups, is an incredibly warm, caring, empathetic and sensitive human being. Therefore, it makes sense that Helene is a highly sought after teacher of the violin, viola and string chamber groups of all ages." - John C. “Helene is an extraordinary teacher and musician. Her extensive knowledge as a musician and violinist is surpassed only by her incredible communication skills and creativity when teaching. She has the wonderful ability to connect completely and immediately with her students, with humour, joy and sensitivity. " - Bethany B. “I HIGHLY recommend Helene Bergman (helenebergmanviolin.com). She taught my daughter for 10 years (from her first tiny violin at 2.5 years through the end of 8th grade.) Helene is kind, gentle and patient. She primarily uses the Suzuki method but responds to each child as an individual (for example, she might throw in some Irish fiddle or contemporary music if a kid is interested.) She holds a yearly recital for all students plus an annual soirée for the older kids to practice playing in trios and quartets. Plus, she is affiliated with the Brooklyn Youth Music Project and summer Suzuki Violin Camp so kids who work with her can easily transition into orchestral playing if they want.” - Heather S. "My daughter has studied violin with Helene for 7 years and had a great experience. Helene is an extremely patient and nurturing teacher with a gift for making lessons fun but challenging when necessary. It was wonderful to see our daughter go from strength to strength with her instrument, starting off with Twinkle Twinkle and most recently tackling a Vivaldi concerto! My husband and I are amazed at what she has achieved and are truly thankful to Helene! I completely recommend her to any family looking for a gifted and inspirational teacher for their child!" - Denise G. "Great player--great teacher!" - Christine E. |
