Violin class for every level. Beginner to advanced in Geneva region.

My name is Aleksandar and I am 26 years old. I have been playing the violin since I was 5 years old, and currently doing it for more than 20 years already. Giving lessons and teaching violin is one of my most favorite things to do. To see the spark for the instrument in peoples' eyes and share the love for music is a big part of why we become musicians. Everyone who has a question or a wish for making music and playing violin with me is welcome to contact me!

It doesn't matter if you are an absolute beginner, or have already played your instrument for years. In my class, together we will construct a program for quick improvement that would be challenging, methodical, but also fun and collaborative. If you (or your chlild) are a beginner, we will cover all the basics with music theory, solfeggio, and of course violin. It is the most important thing to have a comprehensive and professional start with the instrument, as well as good understanding of how everything works together.

More advanced players are welcome to work with me to improve their music knowledge and advance their technique. I can also help you out with chamber music or orchestral (and orchestral traits) pieces. Or maybe you are just looking to play for fun... Don't hesitate to contact me!

Extra information

You have to have your own instrument. However, if you are (or your child) a complete beginner - don't worry. Beginning lessons will involve a little bit of theory, singing etc.

Hello, Passionate about music and pedagogy and a student at the HEM in Geneva, I offer music theory lessons. I have a few years of experience in classes, I was able to prepare for final exams but also for the entrance exam to class at flexible times.

Célia
Violin lessons for all Fr / Ang (solfeggio included).
As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship. As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years. Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument! I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra. In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

Hope to meet you, Martha

Hello, My name is Louana, I am 30 years old and am currently a piano teacher for students ranging from 3 to 65 years old. Indeed, I started very young music with first 2 years of rhythm then 5 years of Solfege Jacques-Dalcroze and finally 12 years of piano including 10 at the Conservatory of Music in Geneva. (each year of study being validated by exams & diplomas) Today I continue to play for fun and give some of my time to teach a few students once a week. Class sessions are generally 45 minutes to 1 hour as proposed by the Conservatory. I teach with my old scores which allows a gradual evolution step by step. Obviously, I remain attentive to everyone's wishes, but I particularly teach classical music because in my opinion, these are the best bases allowing you to play what you want. I am obviously at your disposal for any further information or to arrange an interview at your convenience. Best regards, Louana
