Violin lessons for students of all levels and musical genres


Do you want to start playing the violin or improve?


My name is Paula and I am a violinist, violin teacher and orchestra musician. I have a "Master of Music" in violin at the Saar University of Music with Prof. Joshua Epstein and I am currently studying in the master's program in chamber music with Krzysztof Chorlezski, violist of the Belcea Quartet, and Mario Blaumer, cello director of the Saarland Radio Orchestra. I'm also doing an internship in the Philharmonic State Orchestra Mainz, but I spend most of my time in Saarbrücken.

I also completed a two-year course in osteopathy, studied two years of a bachelor's degree in education and a course in neuroanatomy. When teaching violin, I am particularly interested in how the brain works and its relationship to the body and concentration, as well as working with emotions, which can be applied to both music and life.

I teach violin privately and at two schools in Germany. I have played in orchestras in Germany and Spain, for example the Junge Deutsche Philharmonie or the orchestra of the Comunitat Valenciana (Opera in Valencia), and in concert halls such as the Elbphilarmonie or the Berlin Philharmonie. I am also a member of various chamber music ensembles, especially string quartets.

I live in the center of Saarbrücken and mostly teach at home, but I can also come to you. And if you want, you can also get lessons online. Lessons can take place in German, English or Spanish.

If you have any questions, please contact me! :)

Best wishes,
Paula

One-hour lessons, structured with a theoretical part followed by practical application! To learn how to play, you need to... play! Lessons on technique and approaches to classical and contemporary pieces, listening to pieces played by great pianists, and listening to classical music concerts to train the ear to certain melodies. Preparation for admission to the conservatory.

Your piano lessons would consist of:

Music Theory and Basic Piano Foundations (15 minutes):

Introduction to music theory: notes, clefs, rhythms, musical symbols, etc.
Basic piano concepts: keys, octaves, hand positions.
Piano Technique (15 minutes):

Technical exercises to develop finger strength, fluidity in movements, and dynamic control.
Scales, arpeggios, and trills to improve finger dexterity.
Practice on Classical Pieces (15 minutes):

Start playing the first classical pieces, such as compositions by Bach, Mozart, or Beethoven, adapted to the student's level.
The teacher will guide the student through interpretation and articulation of the pieces.
Practice on Contemporary Pieces (15 minutes):

Introduction to more modern pieces, like compositions by contemporary composers or pop songs adapted for the piano.
Focus on appropriate technique and interpretation for the genre.
Listening to Great Pianists (10 minutes):

Listening to performances of famous pieces played by renowned pianists. This helps students develop an ear for touch, interpretation, and the art of piano performance.
Listening to Classical Music (10 minutes):

Listening to classical compositions for orchestra or other instruments to expose students to different musical forms and styles.
Discussion of musical characteristics and elements.
Sight-Reading Exercises (10 minutes):

Reading and interpreting previously unseen musical pieces to develop sight-reading skills, essential for conservatory auditions.
Conservatory Audition Preparation (10 minutes):

Specific work on pieces required for conservatory auditions.
Audition simulations to build confidence and mental readiness.
Questions and Clarifications (10 minutes):

Time dedicated to answering the student's questions and discussing progress and goals.
Homework Assignments (10 minutes):

Assigning exercises and pieces to practice for the next lesson.
It's important to tailor the lessons to the student's level and needs. A well-balanced lesson plan that includes theory, technique, and diverse piece practice will help build a strong foundation and prepare the student for the conservatory.
