Violin Lessons in English for all levels: complete beginners welcome!
I believe in a holistic music teaching style! This means I teach music by ear and using sheet music. Ideally, my students will learn to enjoy making music with their instrument and be able to hear the progress they are making each week. We will learn how to read music, music theory, and musical pieces at your level. I always teach in a student-focused way: what the student gets excited about is what I will teach! I teach classical music, jazz and various kinds of folk music. I have taught children for several years and I have experience teaching people of all ages. I really look forward to teaching you and working with you! :)

About Me
I am a classically trained violinist and violist from the US. I was trained with the Suzuki method and I am currently obtaining my Suzuki teacher training. I believe in holistically training students to play their instruments so that playing music can become like a second language. I will teach both ear training and with sheet music. I will also teach music theory, sight-reading, rhythm and various other skills that are necessary for musicians.I will always focus on the student's needs and structure our lessons around what the student is most interested in. Not only do I play classical music but I have also been trained by some of the foremost folk and jazz violinists and musicians in the US and I will happily teach any genre from classical, to jazz to different kinds of folk music (Scottish, Irish, Old-time, bluegrass, etc.).
My students will walk away from our lessons feeling like they are making progress, feeling like they are learning a new way of looking at playing their instrument, and hopefully feeling excited and inspired :)
Education
I attended Oakland School for the Arts, a selective youth arts school. I graduated from Berkeley High School with a 3.9 GPA and having played in the jazz and orchestra programs there. I now attend university in Berlin.Experience / Qualifications

I have extensive performance experience with chamber groups, chamber and symphony orchestras, as well as jazz big bands, jazz combos, and different arrangements of folk and jazz trios and quartets. I have released 2 albums with my Americana band, Jubilee with whom I have gone on tours and performed at several festivals across the US.

I have taught violin and viola in the UK for leading national organisations including Opera North, In harmony and Orchestras for All. I have over 10 years of private and school based teaching experience and have taught students from aged 4 to adults. I also ran an outreach music and arts project in the UK delivering music and art workshops in schools and art galleries as well as online, the project was recognised with two national awards from Deutsche Bank and UnLtd. I have led and conducted school string ensembles and set up beginner string programs for Harrogate Music School, Cardiff Young Strings and The Strings Club, Birmingham.
My teaching style incorporates aspects of Dalcroze and Kodaly methodology as well as improvisation and collaborative composition. I develop a bespoke approach alongside each student to ensure they are able to get the most out of their lessons and make lessons enjoyable. My lessons focus on developing technique and skills required to play music the student has chosen and I incorporate play and games into lessons to enable the most effective learning. I work mostly in classical, improvisation and new music contexts but can provide lessons in all genres.

VIOLIN LESSONS FOR ALL LEVELS. Individual and collective lessons. Innovative method and fast learning.Even if you are a total beginner looking to enter the magical world of music or if you want to improve your violin technique and develop your artistic potential, let's achieve your goals together, always with a smile, making this experience a joyful, vibrant and stimulating one. My teaching style is a mix of the Russian violin school and a fresh modern musical pedagogy approach.
Individual lessons plan for each student, according to your specific level, goals, and expectations.
Studying the violin can have interesting side-effects of personal development and usually helps to:
1. Establish a deeper relationship with music: being "in music"
2. Become more curious and competitive users: expanding an aesthetic sensitivity, widening the field of one's musical interests, refining the artistic taste
3. Express oneself (identity, relationship with one's emotions, self-narration)
4. Consolidate self-esteem by experiencing your limits
5. Build self-discipline, developing self-organization skills and a sense of responsibility
6. Learn to respect collective rules, integrate and collaborate with others in harmony, like in an orchestra.
7. Develop attention and concentration activities
8. Compose experiences of integration between mind and body, between affectivity, logic, and sensoriality
9. Refine perceptual and psychomotor skills (coordination, proprioception, body observation)
10. Develop analytical and cognitive skills
11. Develop expressive and creative attitudes

Violin lessons, music theory, musical improvisation, chamber musicWith 27 years of experience as a violin teacher, artist and composer, I transmit my love of music in a creative, playful and holistic way.
I have developed a method that adapts to each student according to their needs, levels and desires.
I attach great importance to creating a caring and relaxed atmosphere where the student can flourish and develop both a solid technique and learn self-confidence. We will also discuss how to work efficiently and calmly and we will develop the qualities necessary to express yourself freely with your instrument. We will talk about musicality, physical well-being (the importance of breathing!), attentive listening and we will take the time to explore while having fun.
If necessary, the basics of music theory will be learned gradually.
Although I have a classical background I enjoy teaching a variety of music (Celtic, folk, klezmer, tango, jazz, films...) and I encourage my students to discover the most beautiful melodies in the repertoire and sometimes even to improvise or compose together. I often play chamber music (piano/violin) or violin duets with my students.
My course is aimed at anyone who has the time to work on their instrument, children from 4 or 5 years old, adolescents, seasoned amateurs, beginners or advanced adults...
Do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information.
I look forward to meeting you very soon!

Violin lessons: Fun-Filled journey! Lessons for children and adults!Hello everyone!
My musical journey began when I was just four years old, starting with the piano. Later, at the age of seven, I eagerly embraced the violin, adding its enchanting melodies to my repertoire.
I achieved a professional mid-grade in both piano and violin. Fueled by my love for music, I moved to Rotterdam, Netherlands, to pursue a Bachelor's degree at Codarts University of Arts. Under the guidance of teachers like Natasha Morozova and Hed Yaron Meyerson, I refined my skills and nurtured my artistic vision.
After completing my Bachelor's studies, I continued my musical exploration in Codarts' Master's program. Alongside my classical training, I've always been intrigued by the therapeutic potential of music. In 2023, I earned certification in Music Therapy, expanding my horizons and deepening my connection to the healing power of music.
In collaboration with my colleagues, I am member of the Olga Trio. Our mission is to highlight the works of women composers throughout history. Our debut performance at the IV Concurso Nacional de Interpretación de Obras de Mujeres Compositoras was a proud moment, affirming our commitment to amplifying diverse voices in music.
Beyond classical music, I've always been drawn to exploring different genres and styles. As a member of the Jong Metropole Orchestra in 2023, I relished the opportunity to collaborate with musicians from diverse backgrounds, pushing the boundaries of traditional musical conventions.
In every note I play and every project I undertake, my passion for music shines through. It's a journey of exploration, growth, and discovery, and I'm excited to continue sharing my love for music with the world.
I've been teaching during the last 8 years. I am flexible with the students needs and I embrace fun and creativity in my lessons.
