About Me
Hi,

I ́m Sandra, a friendly violinist and singer from Estonia. My relationship brought me to Vienna and I ́ve been living here since autumn 2021.

I was 3 years old, when I started singing and dancing in the Estonian Tv Children ́s Studio. The love for music brought me to the violin from the age of 7 and there on my studies continued in Tallinn Music High School for 12 years. I continued in the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, where I first achieved my bachelor ́s and then my master ́s degree.

Parallel to my violin studies, I ́ve always enjoyed singing, choir, and solo. My violin knowledge is based on classical music, but I'm a big jazz and pop lover. In my work with kids, I try to incorporate folk tunes and traditionals from Estonian culture.

I have been a violin teacher for the past 7 years, teaching in many different music schools and studios, while also giving private lessons. My students have participated successfully in competitions, and I myself play actively in different chamber ensembles and project orchestras.

Travels with different international orchestras and choirs have brought me to: Hongkong, South Africa, Argentina, Hungary, Italy, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic,
Switzerland, France, Russia, England, Latvia, Finland, Spain, Greece, China, Malta etc.

I am a PhD candidate, graduate of flute performance and instrumental pedagogy and a certified music physiologist. I have experience teaching in both private as well as public educational system, working with children up to 18 years old.
I perform solo, in chamber groups as well as in orchestras - to complement my artistic activity, I research scientifically in the interdisciplinary field of science & medicine in arts.
I offer performance preparation for competitions, auditions, concerts with any type of repertoire/ genre - we will work on your individually set artistic, expressive and instrumental goals to reach them together.
I base my teachings on the fundaments of performance science, including technics, exercises and tools from music physiology and psychology, to provide you with the most optimal and balanced learning experience.
I will teach you how to hold and use the instrument in the most physiologically correct and healthy way, as well as give you all the strategies and methods for optimal, enhanced learning.

The scope of my expertise:
* working from 0 - learning to play the instrument
* working on the repertoire (orchestral excerpts, flute repertoire from baroque to modern, chamber music, solo music)
* working on the flutistic basics: posture, embouchure, articulation, support (...)
* working on the physiological level: tension release, tension management, strengthening exercises, warm-up, cool-down
* working on the psychological level: mental training, mental practice, anxiety management, performance preparation
* piccolo
* piano accompaniament
* playing in duo

I teach all the levels - from beginners to students preparing for orchestral auditions.

I provide with special materials and scores.

Languages: German, English, Polish

I offer piano lessons for adults and children, tailored to your goals and preferences. Each lesson lasts 45 minutes. Lessons are conducted in English, German and Russian. I teach piano at home in Vienna’s 3rd district and online on a beautiful Yamaha piano.

I have a full class of 13 students. Each semester, I organize a recital. If they wish, even my online students can take part through a live stream :)

I am an award-winning pianist in international competitions, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory named after P.I. Tchaikovsky (BA), and currently a student at the Anton Bruckner University in Austria (MA).

I have developed my own teaching methodology, which varies depending on the student's age, skill level, and preferences. With extensive teaching experience for both adults and children, I have completed pedagogical practice and a piano teaching methodology course at the Moscow Conservatory. I teach beginners from scratch, prepare school students for exams, competitions, concerts, and entrance exams. Additionally, I teach solfeggio, music theory, ear training, rhythm development, hand positioning, and stage performance skills. I work on both classical repertoire and any pieces the student desires. I create custom arrangements for my students, including simplified versions of difficult pieces.

My online setup makes the lessons feel just like in-person: I use a tripod to demonstrate my hands and provide an online screen display for sheet music. After each lesson, I send video tutorials for clear, visual examples.
