Violin/ Viola lessons, Preparatory music for children
Making music is an opportunity that everybody should have in their life. Personally, I think it is a beautiful and alternative way of communication, which opens up new horizons of empathy and it carries important values such as respect and understanding towards others.
Being able to play an instrument gives great satisfaction, allows us to have fun, and trains our brain for the complexity of combining the mental and physical spheres at the same time!

About Me
Hi!I'm Elena and I'm 29, I started to play violin when I was 10 and I'm a professional musician, violin and viola teacher and preparatory music teacher for children. My philosophy is that I like to combine my professional music carrier with teaching because I trust that you can't be a good teacher if you're not a good musician, and in the same time for to play well you need to be a good teacher first of all for yourself and after that it's possible to transmit your knowledge to your students.
My experience in teaching started when I was 21 in the private music schools and I did several studies about pedagogy during my path in conservatory and also when I was doing my degree in Psicology. Then particulary about preparatory music I did a specialization in Orff-Schulwerk pedagogy and I started also to teach it to children's group (age 4-10).
I came here in Netherlands for to specialize myself in Early music and in this moment I'm studying Baroque Viola at the Royal Conservatory of Den Haag.

Piano / Music Theory Lessons for All Levels - Recent Graduate of the Geneva Conservatory of MusicGeneva - Lausanne - Morges
Courses in English, French, Italian (native languages) - German (European level B2)
As a graduate of the Geneva Conservatory of Music, I offer with great enthusiasm, excellent methodology, and a strong desire to share my passion, piano and music theory lessons for all levels.
Having completed 12 years of studies in Piano and Music Theory, as well as courses in Musical Training and Sight-Reading, I want to introduce this extraordinary instrument to both beginners and advanced students with the same passion that my teachers (including Sodi Braide, who studied at the Paris National Conservatory of Music (CNSM), and Stéphanie Aubert) used to bring me to my current level—performing in major concerts and competitions with first prize at the CMG.
As a mechanical engineering student at EPFL, I can adapt the lessons in a fun yet rigorous way, to captivate young beginners. At the same time, my background allows me to expand and deepen the pianistic knowledge of advanced pianists.
I look forward to sharing my passion with you!

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. 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.

Violin Lesson - exploring elements that creates tension and unease and what makes music sound differentExplore where your tension is coming from, where the error is happening between your body and your brain, and what music wants you to do with open, free wills.
As a violinist, I experienced long-term injury, and I explored many other fields like physical therapy, psychology, personal training, Alexander technique, Feldenkrais, and Body mapping for recovery. This experience has impacted highly on teaching as well, and I would love to help others with curious, open, and creative eyes and minds. From body posture to small technical issues, I will help you look at the issue from many different perspectives that can help you find a more organic way to make music.

>> Violin Lessons to Free the Inner Expression and Creativity <<Violin learning is the process of discovering one's own voice through the infinite possibilities that this four strings instrument has to offer. From sparkling, intense and rough to pure, kind and crystalline; learning the violin, as many other arts, is about freeing the emotion through the discipline and order of sound and movement.
Let me introduce myself.
I am Ángeles, an Andalusian in Finland, finishing my master degree in Music Performance at the prestigious Sibelius Academy with great professor Mari Tampere-Bezrodny. I came to Helsinki two years ago seeking for a personal and cultural growth, with huge passion for music and the need to share it. I discovered in violin teaching a new path to that energy to come true, to materialize, by inspiring and leading enthusiastic students to their best performance.
The starting level and goals of the student will determine the direction of the lessons. Join my class if violin is your passion, if you need to reinforce your technique or you want to discover the wonderful world of violin playing.
