Trusted teacher: I come from a family with a long and distinguished tradition of violin teaching, rooted in one of the most influential violin schools of the twentieth century. Growing up in an environment where teaching and music-making were an integral part of daily life, I was immersed from an early age in a pedagogical tradition that has been passed down through several generations of renowned performers and educators. My development as a teacher was shaped not only through formal studies but also through years of working alongside experienced pedagogues, observing and participating in the teaching process from a young age. This practical apprenticeship gave me a deep understanding of how to adapt methodology to the individual needs, goals, and learning styles of each student. Over the years, my teaching experience has ranged from young beginners taking their first steps with the violin to advanced students at pre-professional and university level, as well as musicians preparing for auditions, competitions, and conservatory entrance examinations. I have also given masterclasses and chamber music coaching in various international settings. Alongside my teaching, I maintain an active international performing career as both a soloist and chamber musician. I have appeared in leading concert halls across Europe and beyond, collaborating with distinguished artists and performing at major festivals and concert series. As a member of the Amsterdam Piano Trio, I am also deeply engaged in chamber music at the highest professional level. This ongoing artistic activity allows me to bring practical insights from the stage into the teaching studio, helping students develop not only technical proficiency but also musical confidence, stylistic awareness, and strong performance skills. My teaching philosophy combines a solid technical foundation with an individual and thoughtful approach to artistic development. Whether working with a beginner, an amateur musician, or an aspiring professional, my goal is to help each student unlock their potential, develop a personal musical voice, and build a lifelong connection to music.

£44Violin Lessons, Viola Lessons, Music Theory & Improvisation. Learn with a dedicated and inspirational tutor with 25 + years experience!
Learn Violin or Viola plus Improvisation or Music Theory with a dedicated, friendly and expert tutor no matter what your age or ability level may be. I am a devoted teacher with over 25 years of experience tutoring a wide range of ages and abilities, from young children to adults and from beginners to advanced players. My approach is one of flexibility, taking into account the aims and abilities of each individual and tailoring lessons to suit the student's needs, whether they are preparing for exams, performances or just playing as a hobby. I always strive to make lessons an enjoyable and inspiring experience. I also teach improvisation techniques as a doorway into exploring creative playing outside of the traditional classical method of studying. This is integrated into the firm technical foundation of my mainly classical training and can help give learners another dimension to their playing which can enrich and enliven their approach to whatever kind of repertoire they are studying. I am always eager to share my experience and knowledge with students looking for direction in pursuing a future career in music. Being a performer and teacher has been a positive experience and opened many doors. I want to continue to spread this positivity by sharing my experiences and love of music with my students.

I booked Emma to provide five half-hour lessons for my 9-year-old daughter as an introduction to improvising. She managed to quickly assess my daughter's initial abilities, and come up with some solid starting points that were all well-explained and which my daughter understood and enjoyed. Many thanks!
