VIOLIN LESSONS FOR ALL LEVELS. Individual and collective lessons. Innovative method and fast learning.

From 42.84 £ /h

Even if you are a total beginner looking to enter the magical world of music or if you want to improve your violin technique and develop your artistic potential, let's achieve your goals together, always with a smile, making this experience a joyful, vibrant and stimulating one. My teaching style is a mix of the Russian violin school and a fresh modern musical pedagogy approach.
Individual lessons plan for each student, according to your specific level, goals, and expectations.

Studying the violin can have interesting side-effects of personal development and usually helps to:
1. Establish a deeper relationship with music: being "in music"
2. Become more curious and competitive users: expanding an aesthetic sensitivity, widening the field of one's musical interests, refining the artistic taste
3. Express oneself (identity, relationship with one's emotions, self-narration)
4. Consolidate self-esteem by experiencing your limits
5. Build self-discipline, developing self-organization skills and a sense of responsibility
6. Learn to respect collective rules, integrate and collaborate with others in harmony, like in an orchestra.
7. Develop attention and concentration activities
8. Compose experiences of integration between mind and body, between affectivity, logic, and sensoriality
9. Refine perceptual and psychomotor skills (coordination, proprioception, body observation)
10. Develop analytical and cognitive skills
11. Develop expressive and creative attitudes

About Me

I am a violinist, violin teacher, musicologist and lecturer, concerts and recording producer, and manager, with extensive experience. I have recorded more than 300 CD of classical music, film music, pop and ethno-fusion with string quartet and orchestra.

I always have been dedicating some time of my general activity to teaching violin because I enjoy sharing with others my passion for music, my knowledge, and the joy that music brings to me. Being in harmony, creating beauty and sharing artistic emotions with other musicians and with the audience is magic. And the final applause is so thrilling!

Of course, in order to be able to achieve all this, we need to learn the technique first. But don't worry, the learning process can be easy, funny, stimulating and joyful.
So, come and bring your passion, your talent, your style, your smile, your curiosity and we will bring them to the next level.
And remember: there's nobody with no talent for music in the world. We all have our heart beating and that's a good rhythmic base to work on :-)

I'm a french professional violinist established in Berlin, I'm currently member of the academy of the Radio Orchestra in Berlin and graduated from the Universität der Künste Berlin, Hight school of Music Geneva and Lyon

I give violin lessons at home, for students of all levels and ages.
I constantly adapt my teaching according to the expectations and objectives of the student, so the technical work that allows to acquire a better ease with the instrument will always be directed towards a musical research and the pleasure of playing music
I can also give some basics of music theory, included in a violin class. These courses can be part of the schema of a regular apprenticeship or of one-off sessions (preparation of an exam, support in the personal work of a pupil of a musical institution ...)

I consider teaching to be an essential aspect of a musician's life, in order to pass on one's knowledge and passion with pleasure. This is very enriching for both the student and the teacher, and it has allowed me to reflect on myself and to learn from it about questions of instrumental technique

Hi my name is Anne.

I play the violin and the viola and I have studied at the conservatory at ArtEZ Jazz & Pop.

During my studies I started to build by violin teacher practice. Apart from my private students I taught at the music school "Muziekdorp" in Wijchen and coached a band of high school students for a year.
Next to teaching I play concerts with the "Metropole Academy", I have a string quartet "The Four Frogs in te Woods", and I'm playing in a Folk string duo.

Students of all ages and categories are welcome in my lesson.
Classical, Folk, Rock, Pop, Jazz, and free improvisation are some of the genres you can discover in our lessons.
I did a Teacher Training with the American Violinist Mark O'Connor and finished this training with a diploma. His method is a very beautiful and comprehensive way to learn the variety of the violinistic possibilities.

We will play a lot of music together.
Starting with a correct violin posture you will develop a brought variety of techniques to find your own style.

Being able to play an instrument is an enrichment for everyone!

I would be happy to meet you.

I offer in person and online lessons in violin and viola. I am based in Neukölln, Berlin.

I have taught violin and viola in the UK for leading national organisations including Opera North, In harmony and Orchestras for All. I have over 10 years of private and school based teaching experience and have taught students from aged 4 to adults. I also ran an outreach music and arts project in the UK delivering music and art workshops in schools and art galleries as well as online, the project was recognised with two national awards from Deutsche Bank and UnLtd. I have led and conducted school string ensembles and set up beginner string programs for Harrogate Music School, Cardiff Young Strings and The Strings Club, Birmingham.

My teaching style incorporates aspects of Dalcroze and Kodaly methodology as well as improvisation and collaborative composition. I develop a bespoke approach alongside each student to ensure they are able to get the most out of their lessons and make lessons enjoyable. My lessons focus on developing technique and skills required to play music the student has chosen and I incorporate play and games into lessons to enable the most effective learning. I work mostly in classical, improvisation and new music contexts but can provide lessons in all genres.

Lessons are in English. Regular, irregular and one-off lessons are possible. I teach from beginner-advanced.
