Passionate about teaching, I have devoted a large part of my time to it for 10 years with varied experiences in France and Argentina.

Whatever the age of the student, beginner level or confirmed, I offer private lessons of violin and viola.

No knowledge or musical notion is necessary beforehand, the theoretical achievements are made as and when the discovery of the instrument.

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.

I believe Music is, most importantly, a tool for communication. As a teacher, my goal is to show students how to use this tool on their path towards clearer, more confident self-expression, and in so doing, further myself along the same path.

As an instrumentalist and composer, I have the privilege of an active and successful career in Music, performing internationally with world-class artists, and writing music for some of the most sought-after performers on stage today.

I am a young Italian professional cellist with 23 years of study and professional experience. I have been living in Paris for four and a half years. I earned a Bachelor's degree from the Turin Conservatory, then specialized in Baroque music in Paris, completing advanced studies at the Paris Conservatory, a Master's degree from the Versailles Conservatory, and a second Master's degree in Classical and Romantic music from the Saintes Conservatory (Abbaye aux Dames). I work with several renowned European early music ensembles such as Le Concert Spirituel, Accademia Bizantina, Les Ombres, and La Chimera. I was a semi-finalist in the prestigious MA Competition 2021 in Bruges. I also play modern music, and with my solo cello and electronic music project, I have had the opportunity to participate in major Italian festivals. In France, I regularly work with the French chanson trio Melquiades.

I offer cello lessons for all levels and all styles (classical cello, baroque cello and modern cello), with the possibility of following the lessons at home, by webcam or at home, in French, Italian and English.

The method that I adopted in my studies and that I teach is Suzuki: working on the student, nourishing his environment with stimuli and simultaneously developing his artistic and technical maturity, his morality and his character.
I also believe in group work, the possibility of playing with friends or colleagues, so I often suggest creating small ensembles to share and learn good music with others.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

For students preparing for entrance exams to the higher conservatory or a diploma in auditory education/musical training or even for students wishing to refine their auditory skills.

I was able to develop exercises and work on auditory analysis in my piano and music training classes, and I prepared several candidates (with good results!) for the music training and auditory education tests as part of access to a higher education center.

Always in joy and good humor, with the hand of rigor and study, I will be delighted to accompany you on this musical journey.

Would you like to learn to play the violin, or are you a beginner looking to improve? Then you've come to the right place. I've been passionate about playing the violin since I was 7 and have taken regular lessons myself for many years.
