Violin lessons: beautiful tone,
From 42.84 £ /h
I am a professionally trained Classical violinist with a passion for teaching people of all ages how to play the violin in a way that creates a beautiful sound and as little physical tension as possible.
I am happy to teach any type of music that you are interested in learning, while working on the basics of violin playing (such as technique), so that you can play whatever genre you like better. I want to work on what will keep you engaged while still creating a strong technical foundation. However, if you are a beginner, then I generally begin with the Suzuki violin books.
I can help teach you how to practice effectively, how to improve quickly and what to prioritize for a more beautiful sound and more comfort playing the instrument. Above all, I make sure that you are enjoying the journey of learning such a beautiful and rewarding instrument.
I look forward to hearing from you!

About Me
I am a dedicated and passionate violinist and teacher, and I love helping people to learn the violin. I had an incredible example of a teacher, and I try to embody her dedication, focus, and mentorship with my own students. I envision lessons as being both times of focus and working together, but also fun and a place where you are welcome to be as you are.
During our first lesson, I want to talk about what excites you musically, and why you want to learn violin, and if you have already been playing the violin for a while, to hear you. If you are brand new to the instrument, it is to introduce some basic principles that we will work on. We will then plan the goals that you would like to achieve through our lessons together.
I am open and flexible, and I understand the busy-ness that we all struggle with. Thus, I am open to flexibility, and ask the same from you, as I am also a freelance performer and sometimes may have to move lessons due to performances.
I look forward to getting to know you!
