Music classes of Violin and Viola from symphony orchestra member and school teacher

From 53 £ /h

Hello,

I'm Ana and I'm a graduated violist, a permanent member of Symphony orchestra "Stanislav Binicki" in Belgrade, Serbia. Before passing the audition in an orchestra in January of 2017, I was a professor of viola and violin in a special boarding school for musically gifted children "Skola za muzicke talente Cuprija", for five years. The school is founded and lead by the "Academy of music arts" in Belgrade. There are three schools in the world of that kind: in London, Moscow, and Serbia. My students got 25 1st and few 2nd awards in the republic and international competitions, and all of them signed in to desired academies in Germany, Canada and Serbia as first on the list and with full scholarships. We still keep in touch :)
I was a member of the Royal chamber orchestra St. George for four years and took part in many world tours. I played also in National Radio and Television Orchestra in Serbia, Orchestra of National theater of Serbia, National Symphony orchestra of Montenegro and National Symphony orchestra in Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina. I was a member of orchestras which took part in projects "Bridges for the future" in Bern, Switzerland, “Festival Junger Kunstler”, Bayreuth, Germany, “Deutsch-Skandinavischen Jungend-Philharmonie” in Berlin, “Music days international festival” in Russe, Bulgaria, etc.
I am currently a Ph.D. student in the 3rd year of studies in Management for culture and media, on the Faculty of Dramatic Arts, Belgrade.
I tend to explain to students as simple and as effective as possible. My students enjoy classes, love to play and ask many questions :) I insist on good technique and posture because even if it takes a little bit more time in the beginning, it makes future progress easy and fast.

Extra information

I am adaptable to all the levels of knowledge, all age groups, and repertoire wishes. Let's make this productive and fun at the same time :)

Education

I finished primary music school in Podgorica, Montenegro, playing violin. I switched to viola in high school, and graduated viola in 2010 on "Faculty for music arts" in Belgrade. I have a master diploma.

My goal is to make people of all ages and levels learn not only playing an instrument but how can music help them in their everyday life.
I am an Albanian violinist, with a Bachelor degree in Classical Music (Violin) and Musicologie in Sorbonne University.
Over the years, my experiences with different youth and professional orchestras all around Europe have made me understand that music is important not only for professional musicians but also for everyone.
I can teach in English or French and of course in my mother tongue Albanian.

Violin Lessons — All Ages & Levels

In my lessons, you'll build a strong technical foundation — posture, bow control, intonation, and tone — while developing the musicality that makes playing the violin truly rewarding. Every lesson is tailored to you: your goals, your pace, and the music you want to play.

What we'll cover:

Fundamentals: holding the instrument and bow, producing a clear sound, reading music
Technique: scales, bowing styles, shifting, vibrato, and left-hand agility
Musicianship: rhythm, phrasing, dynamics, and expression
Repertoire: classical, and other styles depending on your interests
Exam, audition, or performance preparation when relevant
Preparation for amateur orchestra — learning your parts, tuning, ensemble skills, and playing confidently in a section

Who it's for:
Complete beginners, returning players, and more advanced students looking to refine their playing. Children and adults are equally welcome. I'm also happy to help musicians preparing to join or perform with an amateur orchestra.

As an active orchestral player myself — including as concertmaster with the Oosterhouts Symfonie Orkest — I can give you practical, first-hand guidance on what orchestral playing really asks of you.

I teach in a relaxed, encouraging way — no pressure, just steady progress and genuine enjoyment. Lessons can be given in English, Dutch, or Portuguese.

Book a trial lesson and let's get started!

Over the past 20 years, I have had the privilege of teaching students from diverse nationalities and backgrounds. I have worked with students from various schools, including local Hong Kong schools, Hong Kong International School, Kowloon Junior International School, and the French International School etc.

I am adaptable and capable of teaching students with different personalities, whether they are highly energetic or more reserved. My primary goal is to instill a passion for music in the next generation, helping students not only grow as musicians but also as confident performers.

I have guided many students to success in ABRSM exams, from Grade 1 to Grade 8, including the latest online exam format. My students consistently achieve excellent results, and feedback from past clients has been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing how music has boosted their confidence and performance skills.

I tailor my lessons using a variety of books based on each student’s level and needs. Please feel free to contact me for more information or inquiries.

This violin course is designed for beginners and intermediate students, and aims to develop the essential technical and musical skills for playing smoothly and expressively. The program includes learning the fundamentals of violin playing, such as correct posture, grip, and producing a clear tone. You'll work on scales and arpeggios to develop your dexterity, as well as bowing techniques to master different stroke patterns. Sheet music reading, musical analysis, and music theory practice are integrated into the course to strengthen your theoretical knowledge and music-reading skills. Alongside this, you'll explore a diverse repertoire, ranging from classical works to more contemporary pieces, and will have the opportunity to work in a group to improve your listening and coordination with other musicians. The course also includes personalized guidance to structure your practice and prepare you for performances, with an emphasis on musical expression and managing stage fright. My approach aims to make each student independent and to encourage their musical development in a caring and motivating environment.

These courses are primarily aimed at beginners or false beginners wishing to learn the violin on a solid foundation, in a progressive and motivating way.

Trained in classical and chamber music by a conservatory professor, I have developed an approach to the violin that is both rigorous and accessible, always keeping the pleasure of playing as the objective.

We work on the essential fundamentals: posture, bow hold, intonation, tone, and basic musicality. Emphasis is placed on a clear progression adapted to each student.

Each lesson is personalized according to your pace and objectives, whether it's to discover the instrument, consolidate the basics or evolve towards a more expressive style of playing.

Courses are available in French or English.

I offer individual violin lessons for beginners, advanced players and music students.

My particular focus is on Baroque music and historically informed performance practice. For the past three years, I have been intensively studying the Baroque violin and the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. In my teaching, I convey not only technical fundamentals but also stylistic understanding, phrasing, articulation, and the characteristic sound of Baroque music.

In addition, I naturally also teach the classical violin repertoire. Lessons cover playing technique, bowing, intonation, vibrato, scales, musical expression, and efficient practice.

I'm happy to support you with entrance exams, competitions, orchestra auditions, or when learning new pieces. Each lesson is individually tailored to your goals and skill level.

I am studying violin at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (mdw).

BACK TO SCHOOL ACTIE! (Geldig t/m 30 september 2026)
Start het nieuwe schooljaar met muziek! Meld je aan vóór 30 september en ontvang 10% korting op je eerste lespakket van 5 of 10 lessen.

🗓️ FLEXIBELE ROESTERING VOOR HET NIEUWE SCHOOLJAAR
Mijn lesrooster voor het komende seizoen wordt op dit moment ingedeeld. Zie je jouw gewenste dag of tijdstip niet direct in de kalender staan? Neem gerust contact op! In overleg zijn er heel veel mogelijkheden qua dagen en tijden (zowel overdag als 's avonds).

Beschikbaar voor lessen aan huis in Amsterdam op maandag-, donderdag- en vrijdagmiddag.

Tijdens de lessen staat een ontspannen en natuurlijke houding centraal, want dat is de basis voor een mooie en vrije klank. Ik besteed veel aandacht aan een verfijnde streektechniek, een zuivere intonatie en het aanleren van een soepel, expressief vibrato. Door mijn muzikale opvoeding ben ik bovendien goed thuis in de Kodály-methode, waardoor het verbinden van zang met instrumentale techniek een heel natuurlijk onderdeel is van mijn manier van lesgeven. Wanneer nodig begeleid ik mijn leerlingen ook op de piano, wat het samen muziek maken extra toegankelijk en inspirerend maakt. Mijn doel is om in een geduldige en persoonlijke sfeer jouw muzikaliteit tot bloei te laten komen – of je nu net begint of je techniek verder wilt verdiepen. Neem gerust contact met mij op en laten me samen aan de slag gaan!

Mein geigenunterricht verbindet klassische Violintechnik mit musikalischer Kreativität, Jazz und Improvisation.
Der Unterricht richtet sich an Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene – sowohl an Anfänger als auch an fortgeschrittene Geiger. Please note that there are individual differences at your level, interests and personal needs.
The classical compositions include a solid technical composition: Haltung, Bogenführung, Intonation, Klang, Rhythmus, Coordination sowie Tonleitern, Etüden und Repertoire. Dabei ist mir wichtig, dass Technik immer mit musikalischem Ausdruck und Freude am Spielen verbunden wird.
For the Jazz and Improvisation players, you can find out more about the composition of the sounds of free and harmonious improvisations. Wir arbeiten unter anderem mit Tonleitern und Arpeggien, Rhythmus, Gehörbildung, einfachen harmonischen Structures, Akkordfolgen und ersten Jazz-Standards.

All ages and abilities are welcome! I tailor the way I teach to suit the individual needs of each student as I believe we all have unique ways of learning. I can help with any aspect of learning the violin, whether you have qualifications or goals you wish to work towards (e.g. ABRSM, Trinity Guildhall, entrance to music college) or just learning for fun!

I have a BMus 1st Class (Hons) in Violin from the Royal Northern College of Music and over 10 years of experience working as a freelance violinist. Previously, I’ve worked in both school and private settings, including for both MAPAS (Salford Music Service) and Wigan Music Service. I was also a co-founder of the Manchester Violin School.

I perform regularly with various ensembles and orchestras, including the Cassia String Quartet and Rylands String Quartet, in both classical and more popular settings.

Please feel free to get in touch, I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
