Master the Basics of Violin: Build Strong Foundations for Freedom in Playing

From 41 £ /h

Professional lessons in London for beginners and intermediate players of all ages.

Hi, I’m Eleazar, and I’m here to help you discover (or rediscover) the art of playing the violin. My course focuses on building strong foundational skills and mastering the basics, essential for anyone starting out or looking to solidify their technique.

My goal is to help you build the strong technical foundations that lead to freedom and joy in playing the violin while keeping the learning process fun and engaging. Whether you’re a beginner or an intermediate player, my lessons are designed to guide you through mastering the basics so that you can ultimately play with confidence and ease.

What makes my teaching unique?
🎻 A Fresh Perspective on Violin Technique
I had the privilege of studying with world-renowned violinist Zakhar Bron, and at the age of 21, I had to completely rework my violin technique. Because I learned it later in life, I can break down the essentials and explain them in a way that’s easy to understand—something most violinists, who learned their technique as young children, often struggle to do. Together, we’ll build the foundations that will allow you to play freely, rather than feeling restricted by technique.

🌍 Multilingual Lessons
I’m a native French speaker and fluent in both Spanish and English. You can choose the language you’re most comfortable with, so we can focus entirely on making progress with your playing.

📍 Flexible Lessons in London or Online
I offer lessons in person here in London, but I’m also available online if that suits your schedule better. My goal is to make violin lessons accessible, convenient, and enjoyable for everyone.

🎯 Tailored for Beginners and Intermediate Students
My lessons are specifically designed to help you build a solid technical foundation, develop your sound so you can truly play freely and express yourself.
You’ll leave each session feeling accomplished and confident.

Slogan:

"Build your foundation. Play with freedom. Enjoy the music."

Hi there!
I am Ida, a creative and passionate musician, and music educator. Counting 20 years in artistic practice and having 7+ years of experience in teaching singing, piano and music theory, I offer you music theory lessons of the highest standard.
Either you are a beginner or advanced, I am looking forward to supporting you on your musical path!

P.s. lessons in London are available only after the danger of the Covid-19 will cease. Stay safe and healthy!

I am a professional and friendly tutor who has an experience in teaching all ages and abilities.I have been teaching violin, piano and music lessons in London and Beijing for over 5 years, both privately and in the educational institutions.

According to me, music lessons should be tailored to each individual student and taught in a creative and friendly atmosphere.

I offer piano lessons for all levels.

7 years of teaching experience in conservatories, music schools and in business.

I have a very good contact with children. I am demanding but gentle and very patient. I believe that one learns by listening, I am present to allow this listening to be at the center of the course and thus accompany the student on the path of music.

I adapt to the need, the desire and the receptivity of each one.
The well-being of the student is essential for progress in confidence and joy.
The development of listening to the inner song is at the heart of my teaching.

For beginners: songs, games, improvisation, creation. The links with song and rhythm are very important to have a healthy foundation. The musical notions are approached gradually by experience then by recognition. Reading and writing are brought about by creation and musical composition.

For the more experienced, polyphony and difficult passages can be approached with different tools, by awareness of harmony and melodic modes and polyrhythm. Sometimes it is enough to be aware of simplicity to overcome difficult passages.

I push to go further in the quality of the interpretation with simple means to better understand the music and thus allow more expressiveness and freedom.

I also offer improvisation, harmony,
lessons in musical ensembles, especially vocal polyphony for children, and lessons for specific needs, for example just intonation for singers or other instruments.

I am a professional violinist with over 15 years in the industry. Graduated from Guildhall School of Music & Drama - this year rated the UK’s best music conservatoire and in the top 10 in the world. I will be teaching violin and everything related to it. Depending on your wishes, we will elaborate a strategy for your lessons in accordance with your goals. Contact me, even if it is only pure interest.

Guitarist, singer, songwriter, composer with 20 years of experience.

I started to study guitar in 2002. After 6 months I started playing live music.
I began to teach guitar in 2018, in London.

I am specialized in beginners and children.
You can choose online lessons (Skype, Zoom, FaceTime), or lessons at your home, in London. I can teach in Italian and in English.

In the lessons the main lines of study are:
- technique exercises to make your hands stronger;
- songs suggested by me and songs that you like;
- music theory.

I try to communicate my passion for music, especially to the children, without forgetting to have fun.

Either, if you want to become a really good guitarist or if you just want to play guitar for fun and relaxation, don’t hesitate to contact me.
I thrive on seeing my students grow and develop as they discover what they can achieve.

.......Ana is also passionate about teaching. She was the baroque strings coach at the inaugural edition of the Novi Sad Baroque Academy, where she presented a mixture of teaching methods incorporated with historically informed performance practice. In October of 2021 she joined the Herne Hill Music Studio in London as one of their tutors. She enjoys teaching students of all levels and ages, and is always willing to exchange knowledge, seeking new exciting and productive ways of learning. She has explored educational psychology, as well as Feldenkrais and Alexander Technique, visualization and different teaching schools. Having studied 2nd-study piano at her music college as a compulsory requirement, she is able to guide children to take ABRSM graded piano music exams too. The students’ happiness, acquisition of new knowledge and musical improvement are the most important things to her. Diana Cummings, the LRAM programme supervisor at the Royal Academy of Music in London, said: “Ana gave a detailed and very well-presented analysis of the baroque viola, the comparison with modern viola and how it could be taught. You have a very analytical mind and think through all the elements of teaching effectively and constructively. You are a most promising teacher, and you are exploring your potential with great enthusiasm. Well done.” ...
