Jodi Austin

I am glad that you found me! I am a fully licensed K-12 music teacher with experience teaching ages 4-adult. Since 2003, I have taught orchestra and guitar ensemble in public secondary schools. During the summer months, I also teach the beginning violin class to elementary students through a summer Fine Arts Academy. I have guest conducted local all-county events, and I have adjudicated solo and ensemble festivals. In addition to being a fine violinist, I am a versatile musician who has also become a fine classical guitarist. In addition to my public school teaching assignments, I run a busy violin and viola studio from my home twice a week.
