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)

Academy - Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra
Member: DoelenEnsemble, Noies String Quartet

Spanish online lessons with native spanish teacher for adults and teenagers
I am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)! I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying. Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together. All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level. Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like. Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.

My goal is to make people of all ages and levels learn not only playing an instrument but how can music help them in their everyday life. I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University. Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone. I can teach in English or French and of course in my mother tongue Albanian.

I have thirteen years of teaching experience in the Netherlands and in Belgium ( privately and at music schools: Hart Muziekschool in Haarlem and Vioolstudio 020! in Amsterdam).
