Our Organization:
Levine Music is a welcoming community where children and adults find lifelong inspiration and joy through learning, performing, listening to, and participating with others in music. Levine’s core values – excellence and opportunity – infuse everything we do. Our distinguished faculty offers a broad and well-rounded curriculum that provides a strong musical foundation for students of different ages, abilities, and interests. We strive to make Levine’s education available to everyone. Hundreds of students receive substantial scholarship assistance; many hundreds more receive free instruction through fully funded in-school programs.
The Position:
Levine Music is pleased to announce a part-time Violin Instructor position in the Suzuki Strings Department, commencing September 2022. The instructor must be flexible to teach at one or more of the six of Levine’s campuses in the Washington DC area, to add more days/hours in the future.
