Violin Lessons with experienced teacher (Masters degree in violin) Online or In-person

Violin Lessons Online (via Zoom) or In-Person (Ashford & Kent)

Hi everyone!

I am a professional violin teacher from Russia , now living and working in UK, Kent.
I graduated Moscow Conservatory (Masters degree in violin) and have more than 10 years experience.
While always having had a passion for teaching, this has grown in the last few years with me giving private violin/theory lessons and working in a several music schools.

Whether the lesson is for you or for your children my teaching approach will absolutely depend on your needs:
My lessons with children are fun helping them to develop a sense of music, concentration and coordination. Adults lessons are adapted according their music preferences.


LOCATION / FEE STRUCTURE:

I am very flexible with time for online lessons or in person at my home in Ashford (Headcorn).

The fee structure is different depending on location of the lesson and travel expenses:

Online lessons : from £30

In person:

-At my studio in Ashford, Kent - from £40r;

-At your place (Ashford, Kent) - £40 + travel expenses ;

15% discount available for online weekdays lessons before 3PM (UK Time)


TEACHING APPROACH:

Lessons are offered for those wishing to take formal exams and/or lessons for leisure and enjoyment.  My aim is to help everyone meet their own goals.

Each individual will have different learning styles. Therefore lessons are planned to ensure that all learning styles are met.
A basic outline of a lesson may roughly follow the below plan:
* Warm ups
* Technique work
* Musicianship- ( a variety of resources are used depending on the age of the student)  This is a very important part of the lesson.  I work towards providing a holistic musical education for all students.
* Notes Reading and Rhythm Skills
* Repertoire
* Improvisation (For intermediate and advanced students)
* Reflection and Practice Targets


From my teaching experience in different countries I believe that combination of different approaches are the best for building a strong technique and develop student's musicality. Along with traditional Russian violin methods, I use ABRSM, Essential Elements, Suzuki, L. Auer (Maia Bang) along with Mazas, Kreutzer, Schradieck etude books depending on student's needs.


Combining different technical skills, I can teach you all styles of music - from Classical to Jazz, Irish, Russian, Latin , Gypsy or even Pop music.

I also work with ABRSM exam program and music theory as well.

Practicing Support:

One of my goals is to teach my students maximise use of their sometimes limited practice time with a focus on building habits and teaching student to teach themselves. I am always happy to give you a feedback during the week.
I also provide for a small fee Zoom Practicing Support Sessions if needed.

Performance Opportunities:

2 Students Concerts are provided each year. All are invited to play.


Please ask me any questions you had.

Online violin lessons for begginer and intermediate students
I offer violin lessons for total beginners, beginners with couple months/years of playing and intermediate students.  I can also teach students who want to become a serious musicians or want to continue their path on conservatories, but only as an additional teacher. On lessons, students can play program chosen by their primary teacher or program, which is decided by me, based on their skills and wishes. We will work on classical pieces as well as some chamber music pieces, scales, technique exercises and themed pieces for holiday seasons. I try to put myself in the student's shoes and thus help him more easily. Every student is different, so I don't just force a certain way of teaching, I adapt according to wishes, personality, abilities and age. I believe in the power of good technique, so my students play scales, finger exercises and etudes. Depending on their level of playing, I choose a suitable program, which we prepare according to the student's best abilities. Despite all the things that are required of me, I expect work from my students and, above all,  joy in learning such a beautiful thing as music.

Violin Lessons for children, adults, or anyone who wants to learn the violin!
I started taking violin lessons at the age of 7. After years of training I am currently continuing my violin studies at Utrecht Conservatory. I have also attended music theory class for 6 years, because it is very useful to have some knowledge of it when playing any instrument. If you would like, I would be more than happy to share some knowledge of music theory along with the violin lessons. Lessons are private and not in groups.

Michael Shingo
Violin and Piano Lessons for everyone who loves to learn
My name is Michael Shingo and I am a classically-trained violinist, pianist, and composer, offering in-person lessons in Rotterdam, Netherlands and the surrounding area as well as online lessons through Zoom. I have extensive experience teaching violin and piano lessons to students from ages five to adult. In my teaching, I emphasize efficient, goal-oriented practice, and provide a strong technical foundation while always keeping musicality and expression in mind. I encourage my students to develop problem-solving skills that will ultimately allow them to create their own interpretations about a piece of music. I believe that each student has a different learning style and, with this knowledge, I design a program of study specifically for them. Learning music is all about tackling technical or musical problems in many different ways until we find an approach that works for you. As multi-instrumentalist who also writes music, I can offer many different perspectives on a single issue and draw from a wide range of knowledge that serves me in my daily creative pursuits.
