Andrew - Manchester, United Kingdom£33

£33Violin lessons for all ages and abilities. I look forward to teaching you!

My lessons focus on implementing violin techniques I have learnt from world renowned teachers. My method of teaching is based off of the Suzuki and Kodaly methods. I believe that when learning violin it is similar to how we learn how to speak. First we learn how to make sounds, then say sentences, then we learn to read. When we do this with violin very quickly we can be creating beautiful sounds and talking through our instrument. I am a student at the Royal Northern College of Music studying violin performance. I play with many orchestras and professional ensembles along side my active duo, the Nexus Duo. I have a great passion for teaching and I have taught many pupils with a large age range and ability over the years. I look forward to meeting you!

Brian - Baltimore, MD, United States£56

£56Viola, violin and music theory lessons with a Peabody-trained violist

Hello! I am a Long Island-based viola and violin teacher currently working towards a Master's degree in viola performance at Stony Brook University. I have taught more than a dozen violin and viola students ages 6-70 over the past 5 years, and I continue to maintain a hybrid studio in Northern Virginia in addition to lessons online and on Long Island. I hold a Bachelor of Music degree in viola from the Peabody Institute of Music in Baltimore. I care deeply about the quality of my lessons, and I continuously improve my teaching materials to meet the needs of each student and to reflect each new insight I gain about string playing. My approach in lessons is based on having a long term plan for each student of becoming an excellent all-around musician, while achieving satisfying results in the short term. The most important skill I focus on with every student, young and old, is being able to analyze a technical or musical problem, break it down into a set of realistic steps, and work with efficiency to gain and retain the results. In other words: understanding how to practice in a rewarding but challenging way. In my viola and violin lessons, music theory work is vital to making musical progress, whether through understanding chords and tonal harmony, or simply reading music fluently. I was the recipient of the Azalia H. Thomas Prize for Music Theory in my graduating class at Peabody, and I regularly compose and arrange music for my students and peers. I am glad to teach theory and composition independently of instrumental instruction for interested students, but know that if you would like to study an instrument with me, you will build a great base knowledge of theory.

Edi - Rijeka, Croatia£32

£32Art of violin - music lessons for all levels and ages

Trusted teacher: My passion for sharing knowledge was evident throughout my studies. Having a background in Russian/Soviet violin school, my goal is to teach everyone the principles of violin playing I stand behind so that they can apply this knowledge themselves and in doing so, acquire independence. In other words – teach a man to fish! Years ago, along with my studies, I dived into performance psychology research as I was so intrigued by it! It would make me happy to be able to share this amazing knowledge on the art of performing and getting into the zone when playing to audiences. Besides enjoying teaching children and adult beginners, I feel that my strongest value is in working with advanced students, where my knowledge and guidance can have an immense impact on their musical life. I strongly believe in guiding each person towards individuality and finding their own unique expression, their voice, rather than making them a copy of their teacher. Technique serves a purpose only to enable our soul to express itself freely... Being able to inspire others is one of the greatest gifts. After each lesson, my students will have clear practice instructions to achieve all their musical dreams!

Edi

Thank you infinitely and definitely recommend Edi! He is an amasing teacher, a marvellously fine musician and a great violinist and violist. During the lesson everything is explained, shown, refined! How much mental strength is invested with love into the lessons! There is no doubt that the violin/viola is Edi’s passion, and not just a profession, and this is passed on to and inspires me. I am glad that I found him as a viola teacher. I admire Edi’s talent, ability to formulate educational material, the learning process itself and the ability to create a wonderfully warm atmosphere during the lessons and in his follow-up emails. In addition to Edi’s pedagogical qualities, he is also a very pleasant, positive and interesting person with wonderfully diverse intellectual interests. Edi is a wonderful violin/viola teacher, a very fine musician, and a charming person! A talented, kind, sympathetic man in love with music!

Daniel

My first lesson with Daniel was just what I wanted and more. Daniel made me feel very comfortable and let me play some music I had been working on. Then Daniel looked at all aspects of my playing in a thorough manner and signposted plans for future lessons. I was really wanting my technique to be reviewed thoroughly and Daniel did exactly this, in a very supportive and encouraging manner. It was incredible to hear the change to my playing Daniel helped me make within the hour. Looking forward to the next lesson! Many thanks!
