I am a professional violinist, violist, and orchestra conductor with over 10 years of teaching experience! I've taught every level of music education, beginner through advanced and young children to the "young at heart" adults. I specialize in helping students improve their playing technique, aural skills, music-reading, and tone quality. Whether you're someone trying to audition for Music Degree programs or picking up an instrument for fun, I try to tailor the lesson experience to what will benefit the students and their goals most. I look forward to meeting you =)
Informations supplémentaires
Students are responsible for bringing their own instrument, music assignments, and using functional technical equipment (for online classes).

Présentation
I am a conservatory trained professional Violinist, Violist, and Orchestra Conductor with over 10 years of teaching experience. I've taught hundreds of students at all levels, beginner through advanced, young and old alike, in private, group, and ensemble lessons. I believe music is a powerful thing for people, and it becomes even more special when you can unlock your creative and expressive potential through playing an instrument. Whether you want to go earn a degree in music someday, play in a community ensemble, or just want to pick up an instrument for fun, I will work with you to achieve your goals. I like to keep my lessons positive while also holding students accountable to the goals we discuss. When I'm not performing, I like to study philosophy, take long walks in the park, and travel the world! I look forward to meeting you and starting this musical adventure together!

Hi there, I'm a professional viola and violin teacher, teaching in person and online, in English, German or Russian.

Alongside teaching 1:1 and coaching chamber music over the last 12 years, I've led numerous workshops, including ‘Music First’ and ‘Music Masters’ in the UK and taught on the Primary and Senior Arpeggione Viola Courses run by Jacky Woods, coaching some of the UK’s leading young musicians. As a member of the European String Teachers’ Association, I have participated in ESTA conferences across Europe, including at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, and in Valletta, Europe’s cultural capital in 2018.

​I regularly prepare his students for auditions, competitions and exams at all levels, and has a holistic teaching style incorporating music theory, aural and sight reading skills and physical awareness. Many of my students have won regional and national competitions and have been accepted into specialist music schools and youth orchestras.

Outside of teaching, I performs internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, recently including at Kings Place London, Elbphilharmonie Hamburg and Philharmonie Berlin. I received first prize at the Małopolska competition, the Barbirolli Prize at the Lionel Tertis International Viola Competition and the Len Lickorish Memorial Prize at the Royal Overseas League International Strings Competition.

I hold a Masters degree with first class honours from the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin, where I studied with Tabea Zimmermann, and the University of Arts, where I studied with Lawrence Power, as well as a Bachelors degree with the same distinction from the Royal Academy of Music in London, where I began in the primary department 20 years ago.

If you'd like to know more or have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch or have a look at my website and video.
