Currently graduated from the Master of Music Pedagogy at the University of Music of Geneva, professional violist in the Galaad quartet and in the Camerata du Léman, I propose courses of ALTO or VIOLON to make you love and discover the beauty of music.

I offer regular and stimulating tutoring for all ages and all levels. I have a very good contact with children.
Built and modular method (including solfeggio work), adapted to the needs and objectives of each to promote progression and the pleasure of playing in the search for sound.

My courses offer:
- introductory elements for beginners with solid postural foundations
- a simple and attentive accompaniment for amateurs who sometimes wish to resume this practice after a long break
- Accurate and rigorous coaching for motivated students who are heading for professional studies.

Are addressed:
- the study of the body gesture (breath release, postural support, stretching, importance and respect of the body)
- ear development (singing, correctness)
- the analytical mind (methodological structure, note reading and reinforced rhythm)
- the inner musical expression that guides all the faculties (awareness of the inner song).

Classes can be at my home but I can also move.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them.

Are you or your child interested in learning the violin or piano? As a professionally trained violinist and specialist in neuro-education, I offer personalized music lessons that blend traditional methods with modern neuroscience principles to enhance learning and brain development.

🎻 Violin Lessons for All Ages and Levels: Whether you're a complete beginner, an advanced player looking to refine your skills, or someone returning to music after a break, I tailor lessons to fit your goals. We can focus on serious classical repertoire, explore different styles, or enjoy a more casual learning journey.

🎹 Piano Lessons for Beginners: I also teach the foundational years of piano with the same dedication to brain-based learning. After mastering the basics, I provide guidance on how to continue your piano journey with specialised teachers.

🧠 Why Neuro-Education?
My approach incorporates neuro-exercises and brain-based learning techniques, proven to accelerate progress and foster deeper understanding. These methods not only improve musical skills but also promote cognitive development, making lessons more effective and engaging.

🎓 World-Class Training and Experience: I have studied at leading institutions in Moscow and Switzerland and have had the privilege of learning from some of the world's greatest musicians in Europe and America. My diverse background allows me to bring a rich perspective to every lesson.

Whether you're pursuing music as a hobby or aiming for a more serious path, I am here to support your musical journey with a customized approach that aligns with your goals.

I give lessons in English and Russian, but in my school there are many great international teachers, including french-speaking.

The viola has been my instrument since I was little. Graduated in musical education from the Haute Ecole de Musique in Geneva, I now teach in primary schools with the aim of transmitting this passion.
Patient and loving to work with all ages, I adapt and find a solution to help the learning of the instrument and thus the memorization of lessons and pieces.

I can also learn the basics of music theory and help afterwards.
I give lessons for beginner Viola, intermediate and help for advanced.

My lessons adapt to everyone's expectations and pace. It is characteristic of private lessons that can really be as close as possible to the students, without the pressure linked to institutions such as music schools.
When possible, students can play in groups, sometimes I even organize a small orchestra with all those who are interested. Two hearings on average per year allow you to meet and give a purpose to the work.

I adapt to your expectations! If you prefer to learn in a fun way, we can play as a duo, for example. If you prefer to advance faster and acquire a technique without further delay, I will offer you several possible types of exercises to acquire a beautiful sound, a solid right hand technique, a left hand velocity as well as musical expression.
Either way, it is better for you to have some time devoted to studying the instrument each day. Regularity in your work will also be a factor in your success.

I studied the violin at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional in Metz for 11 years then 2 years at the CRR in Toulouse; but also the piano, lyric singing, choir direction, music theory, musical analysis, listening commentary as well as the history of music. I obtained a Diploma in Solfège as well as in violin (with the mention very good unanimously).
I will be a student at the Geneva University of Music from September 2021 in bachelor.

Violinist with a Masters in Pedagogy and a Masters in Concert.
I have been teaching for many years in various schools, including the Centre Artistique du Lac, an art school, and the Notre-Dame du Lac institute in Geneva.
I also play regularly with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and the Geneva Chamber Orchestra.

I really like teaching in private because it gives us the possibility of creating à la carte lessons and being as close as possible to the needs and pleasure of each student.
Lessons are for all ages, all levels, individual or in small groups.
Feel free to ask questions 😊
