Violin for Everyone - Learn to play the most beautiful instrument in the world!
Hello there, and welcome!
Regularly rated 5 STARS on Google Page and a creator of a well-loved community of learner violinists, my name is Cheryl, and I offer highly unique and very enjoyable lessons to anyone who wants to challenge themselves with the violin. Do not be fooled - it's a tough instrument to play well! With my guidance and a special interest in postural health, you will quickly learn the basics with some regular effort. I especially encourage students to meet with other students in order to get to know each other on a human level.
An alum of the ABRSM, Suzuki, American and European conservatory systems (Masters with Magna cum Laude), and relentlessly studying to become better and better every week, I filter through 'The Book' to find the most effective and efficient way for the individual learner. We will find out what sounds appeal to you, and teach your unique 'voice' to come out.
With a little technique and a LOT of good taste, there's no knowing where your violin can take you! Come yourself, or with a friend or even with your child, and explore the infinite depths of real music-making! (Pssst: It's never really what we expect in the beginning!)
Lessons can be carried out in English, Italian, French :) Just shoot me a message and we'll decide on the details together! Looking forward to finally meeting you in person.

About Me
Enthusiastic, rigorous, observant, and having had a history of tendinitis due to over-practising in the past, I am highly alert to tensions and finding the way to optimal performance.At the same time, it is a strong belief of mine that Music (capital-M!) is a great teacher to all of us. In order to make a decent sound on the violin, dozens of decisions have to be made, sometimes in the split-second. By welcoming the violin into our lives, we welcome the highly personalised tools of problem-solving, spatial awareness and precise physical coordination, all the while enjoying the fruits of the masters that came before us.
Education
ABRSM - Grade 8 Violin (Distinction), Piano, TheoryBachelor's of Arts - USA
Masters in Violin Performance - Italy (Magna cum Laude)
Post-Masters Study in Violin Performance - Switzerland (ongoing)
Experience / Qualifications
21 years since I first picked up the violin; almost as many in informal teaching occasions:I have played in numerous orchestras in every country I have lived in, spanning 3 continents.

✅COACHING / MANAGEMENT CONSULTING / COMMUNICATION WITHIN MARITAL / COUPLE & FAMILY RELATIONSIn our imagination, nourished by our education and our conditioning, we all believed one day that once married, having founded our family, we will realize our dream.
Before taking the leap, we all idealize this life, and the stronger our hope, the stronger the awakening to the reality of life would probably be.
Indeed, family life is another experience, a challenge and a process during which we learn a lot about ourselves, about the other and about the relationship.
By choosing the right mediator, family and married life can therefore be a great opportunity to grow (sometimes in pain, in joy).
Among the possible accompaniments, some examples:
- The basics of a solid and fulfilled married or family life
- How to resolve disagreements
- The secrets of a balanced and balancing child education
- Learn to express emotions
- Manage families and in-laws
- How to take your place within the couple
- Define the respective roles of each
Among the techniques used:
- Non-violent communication tools
- The “helping relationship” which aims to support people in crisis or conflict situations and help them resolve dysfunctions (emotional, relational difficulties, repetition of scenarios, lack of self-confidence, etc.) . It also leads to better self-knowledge and guides the person to discover their own solutions.
The practitioner in helping relationship through his attentive and neutral listening, his training, his personality, his presence, his availability will allow the consultant to progress towards a better knowledge of his psychological mechanisms, respecting his blockages, his rhythm and his ability to hear.
The therapist takes into account the subject as a whole: physical, psychological and social.
Allow the consultant to access autonomy so that he can, when he feels ready, walk alone, in all inner serenity.
- Coaching that allows you to act and take responsibility, which is the basis of effective and lasting change. Work on the management of emotions and relationships, confidence and self-esteem, self-affirmation is at the center of individual support, which allows you to live more fulfilled and authentic relationships.
- Love coaching, which is personalized support based on understanding the mechanisms of love and focusing on putting an individual in this disposition of openness and acceptance of the other and their difference (which prepares to receive love) and to transfer keys of understanding to gain emotional maturity.
It allows you to obtain concrete and measurable results in your love life.
Through coaching, the consultant becomes aware of his resources, optimizes his potential and transforms his life.
- Brief marital and family therapy. She is interested in how the problems manifest themselves in the present but the personal history of each is also approached. This insight helps to better understand the events experienced and to make connections between the past and what is at stake in the current difficulties. We introduce changes in behavior to open up perspectives, mainly relational.
- Sophrology. Sophrology is a gentle method that promotes relaxation of the body and mind where you relearn how to listen to your feelings using controlled breathing exercises, muscle relaxation and mental suggestions. It allows you to develop your potential, regain self-confidence, manage your emotions and achieve your goals. It will be, at times, interesting to use this technique to manage to unblock the mind that is blocking and to give the body more amplitude to welcome what presents itself.

PLACES :

These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Piano Lessons - all ages and levels - Classical music, pop/rock, etc. - with Piano Master's graduated teacherHello!
I am a 29 years old classical pianist with a Master's degree at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Den Haag.
I have taught Piano (and also Music Education) since 2016, to both children and adults.
Teaching allows me to bring my passion and enthusiasm for music to the students, and I also find it incredibly rewarding to guide and follow their musical and technical development!
I am easily adaptable to the student's musical tastes and expectations/goals in music learning, and I am also very mindful of how I communicate, according to the students' ages and personalities.
I can teach classical music, pop, rock, or any other style.
My approach consists of giving you the necessary theoretical knowledge for what you wish to play; involving you actively in the choice of the pieces/songs you will play; setting up a long-term plan for your repertoire, so that your development is made step by step in a challenging - but achievable - way (and this way, you will feel more motivated!); giving you enjoyable and creative practicing strategies; creating rich imagery revolving around the piece - by making up a story, relating the music to emotions, etc.; and also positive feedback!
Thus, my lessons will allow you to:
- Learn how to read scores.
-Develop your musical understanding (from notes, rhythm, and harmony, to musical taste, and emotional comprehension of the music, or dive into aesthetic principles concerning the period and style of the piece,...).
-Improve, step by step, until you are able to play that piece/song that you love.
-Prepare yourself for exams.
-Etc.
Furthermore, I organize Students' Concerts, giving you the chance to play in a fantastic grand piano, and sharing with others all the work you've done!
The best thing is that it's possible for you to learn all this and have fun at the same time!
Any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.
