About

Elaine

I am at present, a retired Suzuki Violin/Viola instructor and active blogger. I live in Arvada, Colorado with my son and his family. While I was teaching, I enjoyed giving my students a well-rounded program, where a wide range of skills was fostered. Now I enjoy writing about the skills I taught and blogging about my adventures in retirement.
