About Victoria
I am an experienced, friendly, and patient teacher who loves to share my knowledge with my students! I customize the lessons to suit each student's needs and interests, and I believe that learning should be fun. I also believe that it's never too late to start! (One of my students began learning the violin at age 75, and she's doing very well.)
I have been teaching private violin lessons since 1989, viola lessons since 2005, and cello lessons since 2013. Lessons are held at my studio in North Versailles, just two blocks off of Route 30. You may learn more about me and my studio on my Facebook page, (concealed information)
I was taught and mentored by the late Dr. Eugene Reichenfeld, a prominent strings teacher and conductor from the Pittsburgh area. He wrote the following recommendation: "Miss Beck is well informed in the current teaching methods and is capable and competent in her profession. Her personality is exemplary; she radiates friendliness, interest, kindness, and understanding, all of which are the qualities of a good teacher. I recommend Miss Victoria Beck as your music instructor."
I am a member of the American String Teachers Association (ASTA) and the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association (PMEA), and I regularly attend workshops and seminars to keep up-to-date on the newest trends and techniques. I am also the president of the board of trustees for the Opus 2 Orchestra, which is based in Monroeville.

For all students, I always take a few minutes during the first lesson to get to know them, find out what their goals are, and to share a bit about my background and approach to teaching.
If the student already plays the instrument, I ask them to perform a short piece or two of their choosing to demonstrate their current ability. I watch for and listen for strengths and weaknesses in playing position, bowing, and sound quality, and then tell the student what I observed. I compliment them on their strengths, and tell them how we will address their weaknesses.
For brand-new beginners, most of the first lesson is spent learning about the instrument and how to properly hold it. We will go over some basic music notation and will play a few lines "pizzicato" style, which means "by plucking the strings." The bow will be introduced later, once the student has become comfortable with holding the instrument in proper left-hand playing position.
I have worked with students of all ages and abilities. Some were very serious about their music and went on to study music in college, and others took lessons simply because they enjoyed playing. I currently have a few students who are autistic, and another with ADHD. The youngest student I've ever had was five years old, and the oldest beginner was 75. Most of my students play in their school's orchestra, and private lessons have helped them advance beyond their classmates.

Super patient and inspiring! Thank you for the wonderful lessons, I learned a lot!
Miss Vickie is a wonderful instructor to my 9 year old son. She is very friendly and he really loves his time with her. I am impressed by the extra opportunities she provides like "field trips" to string performances and many chances for her students to perform for local seniors .
A very patient teacher who enjoys her work as a music teacher.She is a great teacher!! Great patience she is a 5-star rating. Thanks for teaching Miss Vickie.
Miss Vickie is an amazing violin instructor. I started learning how to play the violin from her eight years ago and during this time I have seen big improvements in my ability to play the violin. She’s great at understanding the individual needs of her students and coming up with a tailored learning approach that enables her students to feel comfortable and grow their skills. The music pieces we use in class are well chosen and have made the learning experience very pleasurable. In addition to private classes, Miss Vickie organizes optional outside concert opportunities and this has really helped me build my confidence in playing the violin in front of a live audience. I highly recommend her to those who want to learn how to play the violin for the first time as well as those that are looking to improve their skills at any level. It has been a great learning experience!
Miss Vickie is an accomplished musician who is incredibly patient, positive, and encouraging. My son absolutely ADORES her!
My daughter loves going to her lessons. She has really progressed in her playing ability and also understanding the music. Miss Vicki is patient and very knowledgeable.
She is amazing she is very patient and works with students on what they need to work on my daughter has been going to lessons for 5 years now and I wouldn’t want anyone else for lessons she truly is an amazing teacher
