Patrick - London£50
Trusted teacher: I specialise in violin and viola lessons for ABRSM exams. I have been teaching since 2012, and since 2016 I have also been teaching over Skype. My students have had many successful results for ABRSM exams, high school scholarship auditions and local music competitions. I have been teaching theory grades 1-5 for since 2018, with some students achieving distinction level results. I teach internationally via Skype with students in the UK, Denmark, Sweden, and the USA. Through my high level of teaching, you child will be taught how to pass the exams to the very best of their capability, with focus on the technique of the instrument, and how to perform.

Daniel - Cambridge£56
Trusted teacher: Approach to Teaching – I favour a structured approach. I devise lesson plans in advance of every lesson, catered to the student's specific needs. – Violin lessons tend to be carefully planned to focus on specific technical aspects of performance. To train musicality, I often teach this through the use of Kreutzer and Fiorillo etudes, Dont studies, and also pieces of repertoire catered to the student's musical interests and technical requirements. – I am open to considering student repertoire suggestions if they are particularly passionate about a certain piece. Lesson Structure – Typically violin lessons range in length from 30 minutes to an hour, but I am flexible: I am more than happy to devise a lesson structure that caters for a student's requirements. Credentials – I am a Musicology PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge. – I have worked as a private violin teacher for 7 years (since I was 17). I have taught a variety of students, from beginners starting their instrumental training, to more advanced performers looking to improve their technical facility and performance skills. – I have performed at West Road Concert Hall (University of Cambridge), The Lee Tseng Hall (Wolfson College Cambridge), Buxton International Festival, Manchester International Festival, and The Bridgewater Hall. – I have an extensive portfolio of performing credits on documentary films; recent highlights include the docuseries on Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein 'House of Maxwell' (BBC2, 2022), and 'Sir Alex Ferguson: Never Give In' (Netflix) (Passion Pictures / Universal Pictures) (2021).

Anastasia - Headcorn£45
Trusted teacher: Violin Lessons Online (via Zoom) or In-Person (Ashford & Kent). ABOUT ANASTASIA: Anastasia believes that the violin is accessible to everyone. Whatever your age, background or level, you can go wherever your musical ambition takes you and achieve your full potential playing this amazing instrument. Anastasia brings over 10 years’ teaching experience to help you do this. Anastasia is a professional violin teacher from Ukraine , now living and working in UK, Kent. She graduated Moscow Conservatory (Masters degree in violin) where she continued working for a few years. While always having had a passion for teaching, this has grown in the last few years with giving private violin lessons in her own music studio. Whether the lesson is for you or for your children, Anastasia's teaching approach will absolutely depend on your needs: Lessons with children are fun, helping them to develop a sense of music, concentration, and confidence. Adults lessons are adapted according their music preferences: Combining different technical skills, she can teach you all styles of music - from Classical to Jazz, Irish, Russian, Latin , Gypsy or even Soundtracks and Pop music. TEACHING APPROACH: Lessons are offered for those wishing to take formal exams (ABRSM) and/or lessons for pleasure and enjoyment. Anastasia's aim is to help everyone meet their own goals. She also teaches Music Theory, including ABRSM exam theory program. From Anastasia's teaching experience in different countries, she believes that combination of different methods are the best for building a strong technique and develop student's musicality. Along with traditional Russian violin methods, she uses ABRSM books, Essential Elements, Suzuki, L. Auer (Maia Bang) along with Mazas, Kreutzer, Schradieck etude books depending on student's needs. Anastasia is ready to provide you an interesting repertoire, according to your preferences in music, supporting your home practicing with a good quality piano accompaniment backing tracks (which is so useful for developing musicality, improving your rhythm/timing, musical ear and it's a great fun to learn playing in an ensemble too!) PRACTICING SUPPORT: One of Anastasia's goals is to teach her students maximise the use of their sometimes limited practice time with a focus on building habits and teaching students to teach themselves. She is always happy to give you feedback during the week. DURING THE LESSONS: Each individual will have different learning style. Therefore lessons are planned to ensure that all learning aspects are met. A basic outline of a lesson may roughly follow the below plan: * Developing good posture & Warm ups * Technique work * Musicianship- ( a variety of resources are used depending on the age of the student) This is a very important part of the lesson. I work towards providing a holistic musical education for all students.) * Notes Reading and Rhythm Skills * Repertoire * Improvisation & Ear Training (For intermediate and advanced students) * Reflection and Practice Targets FIRST LESSON: The first lesson is usually 45 or 60 minutes long. She will introduce you to some instrument basics, discuss your goals and music preferences, give you some suggestions for books and repertoire. If you don't have your own violin yet, Anastasia canl provide an instrument for the lesson and will give you recommendations how to choose a right instrument for you. PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES. Anastasia believes that giving opportunity of some performing experience is very important for each future musician: 2 Students Concerts are provided each year. All are invited to play. PLAYING IN ENSEMBLE (GROUP SESSIONS): Learning violin in a small group is a great opportunity not only develop musical skills, but also communicate with other musicians and build your performing confidence. Anastasia brings a lot of attention to each student and individual lesson always offerded before joining the group - to make sure all basic aspects are covered individually. It is also always a great pleasure to perform in a small concerts for family and friends, which Anastasia organise for her violin class regularly. LOCATION / FEE STRUCTURE: I am very flexible with time for online lessons or in person at my home in Ashford (Headcorn). The fee structure is different depending on location of the lesson and travel expenses. Please note that my schedule in Apprentus website is not updated, please contact me to schedule the lesson.

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!

Anastasia
Anastasia is a fantastic teacher. She is very supportive and tailors each lesson depending on the students needs. I am an adult learner and feel that she is the best teacher for me. Anastasia is able to identify strengths and weaknesses and works with you to overcome them, she is also flexible and makes sure that you have helpful exercises and activities to do outside of lessons. I would highly recommend her.

Silvia
We have made an excellent choice in engaging with Silvia. Silvia possesses a warm and friendly method of teaching and is an excellent subject matter expert in her field. We are relocating to a German speaking nation, so I would recommend Silvia for anyone seeking knowledge of German language without hesitation.
