Extend your passion and talent as a string musician to elementary students through the Point Loma String Project, a rewarding three-level program that mentors university students as they teach local elementary-level string players.
Through this program, experienced college-level string players teach biweekly group classes under the direction of music faculty member Dr. Phil Tyler. Students of the string project will gain a practical foundation for their string instrument of choice (violin, viola, or cello), learn the basic principles of music theory, and gain an appreciation of music. The string instructors in turn gain valuable experience, confidence, and skills and will enjoy a distinct advantage in the job market upon graduation.
The purpose of the Point Loma String Project is to provide a real-life teaching laboratory where PLNU string students are trained as effective string teachers and young San Diegans are trained as proficient string players.
