Learn how to play the violin or the viola and how to read music

Feeling good with your body and listening to it, understanding where the sound comes from and how to produce it, learning the basics and how to read the notes and the score, learning tricks and daily exercises without the instrument to help you develop your agility and muscles, playing together duets to get closer to the chamber music world and to learn how to listen and collaborate with others. I think it's important to listen also to the student's requests and desires; if you have a tune or a piece that you would love to play we can work on it together.

Folk music is also an interesting way through which we can get closer to the instrument and the music world, playing traditional dances from different countries and discovering different music languages.

As every person has his own physiognomy and musculature, we will try to find together a correct and comfortable posture that better suits the student to create a connection with the instrument. Warming-up and taking care of our body is part of a musician's life (beginner, amateur or professional) and it is important to prevent injuries and muscle pain. Unfortunately this aspect is not often taken into account and for this reason I aim to transmit this value to my students.

Extra information

I have a violin and a viola that you can try during the first lesson.
If you want to continue playing would be best if you could find your instrument, renting it or buying in a music or luthier’s shop, and I will guide you and help you.
To have a good quality instrument and bow is important to find a beautiful and full sound and to improve your technique in a healthy and correct way; you will receive a lot from your instrument!

About Me

I grew up in the countryside in Florence in an artist family that always gave me the inspiration to create.
I obtained my Bachelor's degree in "Scuola di Musica di Fiesole" in Italy and my Master's degree in "Codarts University of the Arts" in Rotterdam; I'm currently freelancing in The Netherlands in different orchestras and ensembles, such as Rotterdams Philharmonisch Orkest, Nederlands Philharmonisch Orkest, Metropole Orkest, Doelenensemble, Ciconia Consort and Noies string quartet. Since 2022 I'm member of Batavierhuis, an artist house based in Rotterdam.

Music gives us the opportunity to connect and disconnect at the same time from this world and to live a whole new experience with our emotions, spiritual and inner world and senses, bringing the audience with you. I would like to bring also my students with me in this journey, learning and discovering together new ways of bringing what we have inside to the outside in a unique way.

Education

I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Scuola di Musica di Fiesole (IT) with the violin and then I switched to the viola obtaining my Master’s degree in Codarts University for the Arts (NL)

Pedro Gorgoglione
Violinist with 15 years of experience with the instrument, completed professional degree. I also teach basic concepts of musical language.
I use the methods with which I learned, such as books like Suzuki, Czerni, etc., always adapted to the student's age and level. The student's musical preferences will also be taken into account for learning pieces or songs they enjoy. There will also be an emphasis on public performances, as this is one of the most challenging aspects for musicians. We will try to organize concerts or recitals in a family setting to practice this skill. Finally, motivation will be reinforced by preparing duets (two violins, violin and piano, violin and guitar, etc.), as this is one of the most effective methods for improving skill level.

Pia
(Online) Mathematics Tutoring for High School Students
High School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material. The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working. Topics include, but are not limited to: -Linear Algebra -Calculus -Trigonometry -Geometry -Set Theory -Analysis If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message! Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you! The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

Spanish as a second language - Spanish for foreigners (ELE)

We live in an intercultural world in which relationships with people from different cultures and who speak different languages is inevitable. For this reason, I offer Spanish classes for both teenagers and adults with levels from A1 to C1. My classes are organized according to the needs and objectives of the students, in fact, the students I currently have can corroborate this. I like that people intervene and, of course, that we have a fun and enjoyable time. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to write to me. I'll wait for you!
