The North Carolina resident recently dazzled the audience on America’s Got Talent stage with his violin skills.

Tyler, who is only 11 years old, played his violin with such mastery that it captivated everyone in the audience that night as well as those watching at home. The jury praised his performance as well.

But Tyler possessed other exceptional qualities as well. The small boy started learning the violin when he was four years old after being ridiculed at school for having leukemia.

The young Tyler struggled with the therapy since he began to lose his hair and was bullied at school as a result.

Tyler claims that he was left alone at school because certain students at the school spread rumors that his illness was contagious.

Despite this, he soon recovered his strength and motivation after seeing an advertisement for free after-school violin classes. He was only seven years old when he first picked up the violin.

The more he practiced, the better he got, he claimed. “All I did was a practice in my bedroom.” “It was all business as usual.”
