Violin lessons with experienced and certified teacher

42.84 £ /h

I have 10 years’ violin teaching experience in the UK and have recently moved to Dresden. I specialise in teaching beginners age 7-12 both in groups and 1:1. I also have lots of experience teaching teenage students, some of whom have gone on to study music at university. Most of my students worked towards ABRSM graded exams, but the primary goal of my lessons is always to make sure the student has fun playing.

I have a PhD in Music and the ABRSM Teaching Diploma (DipABRSM).

I am a friendly and experienced teacher with a master degree in engineering. I have worked at the British International School of Wroclaw for 3 years, focusing on English, mathematics, physics, design and technology.
Currently, I am an English teacher for inlingua Language School in Dresden, Germany.

Since most of the students I have taught are not native speakers in English I am aware of the challenges they face and my experience is very valuable for making learning easier for them.
