Does anyone know where I can get violin lessons? Question

I have always wanted to learn and my mother-in-law purchased me a violin for Christmas. From what I know it's next to impossible to teach yourself, so I'm looking for lessons.

Ideally this is someone who would be comfortable with my autism. While not high-supports needs, I do tend to ask a lot of questions in 'normal' situations and even more questions in learning environments as I seem to understand.

I also have verbal tics and a stutter so I would really appreciate non-judgement on that front.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated?

Downstairs at the Book Table they do lessons. I've heard them there before. Just go in and they'll give you contact information.

Ashlin Christian, MA, MT-BC is a teacher of several instruments. Her lessons are adaptive - my son takes piano from her and he is on the spectrum and has beautiful appreciation for music

Logan music academy is good for beginners, my son took violin lessons there. College students teach there all the time and once you get a handle on it, you could move into a more professional lessons.

I'd bet you could ask up at the university and find a student or two who'd be glad to do lessons.

Music department in the Caine College of the Arts. Probably whoever leads one of the orchestras or something, but if you just contact them they can probably point you to the right person.
