From 78.48 $ /h

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.
