About Mrs. Heinz
I got my start with the violin in a 4th grade public school program in Scranton, Pennsylvania. It positively changed my life, giving me opportunities I am certain I wouldn't have otherwise had. I attended the Hartt School of Music in West Hartford, CT, and I have been teaching music for approximately 28 years. My experience includes private violin instruction, teaching in the public schools of Dover, New Jersey, teaching here in Sarasota, and conducting Symphonic Strings, a youth string ensemble for the Sarasota Orchestra since 1997. I am married to Brett, a computer programmer and musician, and I am the proud mom of 4 boys, Ben, Ethan, Dylan, and Owen. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, performing, listening to music, bike riding, swimming, cooking, baking, and playing with Rocket, our Terrier-mix rescue dog.
I feel so incredibly lucky to be working with the students at Venice Middle School. I believe that with the right mindset, the sky is the limit in what we can learn. We are going to work hard, accomplish our goals, and have a great time! Please do not hesitate to get in touch with me at any point if you have any questions or concerns: Mrs. Heinz' Email
