Violin lessons for beginners, amateurs or professionals

Hello everyone, I'm Irene, a researcher specialised in Psychology and Education living in Belgium. I have 8 years of tutoring experience from when I lived in Spain. During this time, I taught music to children, teenagers, and adults. I really enjoy interacting with students and sharing my passion for music, so I've decided to offer my tutoring services in Belgium as well. In this course, I will adapt completely to your level and personal goals (or the goals of your child). Whether you want to start learning, improve or consolidate your technical skills, or prepare for an audition, I am here to help. My goal is to help you enjoy every bit of making music.

I don't mind encountering difficulties on your learning path as a musician because it has allowed me to discover, research and learn many different ways of playing the violin. What came of it? I am a passionate, versatile classical musician who has found a special connection with her instrument. Together with the student I like to look for their perfect posture, I try to make the learning process enjoyable and strive for new levels of playing. No matter how seriously we take it sometimes, we should not forget why we started music: because it feels good.

After finishing my studies at the Conservatorio Superior de Música del País Vasco (Musikene), I am now in Ghent for my Master's degree at the Kask Konservatorium & School of Arts Ghent. I am eager to share the knowledge I have acquired and to help students who are really interested in advancing in the world of the cello, both musically and technically, as well as to transmit to my students the versatility of our instrument and its beauty. I focus especially on the relaxation of the body in order to find a good quality sound. Starting with a methodology adapted to the level of the student, together we can make great progress in the subject! Sometimes one can forget how important the use of the body is and how the right use can make everything easier, that's why I like to introduce my students to different fields related to body and mental relaxation.

Hi! I'm a violinist currently finishing a Master's in Music at Royal Conservatory in Ghent. I started playing violin at the age of 6, and studying with numerous professors made me realize how important an individualized pedagogical approach is for good development. My aim is to motivate students to be creative and enjoy playing music, helping them express their own ideas. A relaxed and natural technique is always one of my focuses, to avoid future injuries and to find ease while playing that will allow you to explore your musicality and feel free.

I am a professional musician and certified music teacher who is active in both fields. I prefer to teach students who have been playing the violin for several years and want to focus on different genres such as pop, classical, world music, swing, tango,... Reading scores is not necessary. I can also teach you music by ear.
