From 36.62 £ /h

Would you like to strengthen your English while also learning to play the violin?

I am a violinist, violin teacher with experience teaching English and am looking for students who would like to improve their language learning skills with movement and music. I teach using body-based learning, focusing on motor skills, repetition and environmental cues to help strengthen learning. There is evidence to suggest that learning music strengthens the ability to learn language as they use similar brain pathways.

Please get in touch if you are interested in further information. Assistance to choose correct violin for you e.g. size, material is also on offer.

Extra information

Have own violin, but I can also lend my own violin for learning purposes.

I can accompany you so that you can taste the pleasure of singing and develop knowledge and mastery of your instrument.

The voice is a means of expression, expansion and creativity.

In these courses you can learn:

Vocal technique
The repertoire you like (lyrical, musical, jazz, pop...)
solfège
Piano Basics
Diction: French, Spanish, English, Italian, Russian

Developing good vocal technique involves a correct understanding of breath and diaphragmatic and abdominal supports. Individual lessons allow for personalized and in-depth work on the different aspects of singing: repertoire, technique, knowing how to project the voice flexibly. I also have training as a music therapist for a more therapeutic approach to the voice.

ONLINE: Skype, Whatsupp, FaceTime, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Zoom, Google Meet ...

I am a professional singer, I studied in different countries: University of the Arts of Bern, Gitis -Russian Academy of Theater Arts-, at the Liceu Conservatory. I work with different theaters and operas in Spain and Switzerland.

Great to meet you all! My name is Tomas and I'm a passionate violin teacher with more than 20 years of teaching experience. I have a strong academic background in music and education. Here are some of the degrees I have obtained:

- Master Degree in Music Research from the Valencian International University

- Major in Violin Performance from the Conservatory of the Liceu Theater in Barcelona

- Teaching degree from the Barcelona Music School

- Professional degree from the Music School of Buenos Aires

- Specialist in Psychomotricity from University Miguel Cervantes

-Specialist in Early Cognitive Development from University Miguel Cervantes

Apart from teaching, I also run the world's largest Spanish-language violin blog called MyViolinBlog where I share my teaching and playing experiences. I'm also privileged to work as a conductor for the AMA Orchestra in Barcelona, where my students and I focus on musical group experience and technique.

I have teaching experience in different schools across Argentina, Spain, Poland, and Romania, I've developed a unique teaching approach that tailors each lesson to the student's goals, keeping them motivated and on track. I can also assist with preparation for school admissions exams such as ABRSM, Trinity College, and more.

As the head teacher at Esclat Barcelona Music School and Viaró Global School, I'm currently conducting research in the biomechanics of violin playing, and I'm set to publish four books on this subject this year!

Each class with me is customized to meet the student's needs, covering musical, theoretical, and postural concepts to ensure optimal comfort while playing. I love to explain complex concepts in simple terms and inspire my students to continue learning and exploring their musical abilities.

If you're interested in booking a trial lesson with me, let's discuss your goals and how I can help you to reach them!

In my classes I always seek to maintain a balance between the development of basic knowledge, composition techniques and creativity. These are the three fundamental pillars that any person dedicated to composition needs.

Basic knowledge: Many are afraid of learning "too much" theory, because they believe that it can kill creativity. But what I precisely want to teach in my classes is a practical approach, where theoretical knowledge serves to further develop creativity.

Composition techniques: Each class I give small composition tasks, things that can be developed in the time you have available between classes, where we will explore different composition techniques and how they can be applied within the musical language that you want to develop.

Creativity: We work here in two ways, the first is on a project you are working on, for example a piece for your own instrument, a project for a competition or entrance exam, a song, etc. The second way is through improvisation exercises on your instrument. We will do this together, since I play violin and piano. With this we are seeing how to give space to musical intuition, to be able to capture ideas and then concretize them in a composition.

These three elements are present in each class, which is usually divided into 20-minute sections, so a lesson usually lasts 1 hour.

Music theory is not as complicated as everyone thinks. It can be easy too. Not only that, it doesnt have to be dreadful and boring because it can super fun by implementing games!

- Having music theory as your basic foundation will help you a lot when wanting to start a new instrument
