Instrument class and training with language and harmony (classical, ancient and modern 20th century). The repertoire is chosen by the student according to their tastes. The teacher proposes to complete the repertoire and looks for arrangements adapted to the student's abilities for their requests. The student leaves each class touching the work seen in class. Teaching method by beater mapping, based on directed reading (play along with the teacher) where the teacher adapts to the student. For constant progress, the student repeats at home during the week what they have played with the teacher (play along) in the previous class. Every day progress is made, ensuring the continuity and progress of the student. Signed the teacher: Ramón

Con más de 5 años de experiencia en el campo docente, hace un año abrí mis fronteras con alumnos no españoles y mi experiencia ha sido muy gratificante. Además de ellos aprender conmigo, me han ayudado a mantener el francés actualizado en cuanto al lenguaje específico musical.
Conmigo aprenderás no solo a tocar un instrumento o las nociones teóricas, sino a conocer tu cuerpo así como desarrollar el aspecto sensitivo.

The violin is a beautiful and versatile instrument, a tool of expression with a vast range of nuances, registers, and colors—practically unlimited. I want to show you how to explore your instrument's potential and cultivate a strong connection between you (person and instrument) so that you can reach your full potential and express what you want to say through it, always enjoying and maintaining a healthy relationship with your instrument and with yourself.

I have extensive teaching experience, through which I've helped hundreds of musicians see music and their instruments differently. This allows them to continue growing and organically improve their musical performance in every aspect.

Welcome to my profile!

My name is Fabiola, and I am a violin and viola teacher and children’s orchestra conductor based in Maastricht. I work with students of all ages, creating a supportive, creative, and personalized learning environment where each student can grow at their own pace and enjoy making music.

As an active orchestral performer, I bring my professional experience on stage directly into my teaching. I help students develop a solid technique while fostering musicality, expression, and confidence. I use a variety of teaching approaches, including Suzuki, ABRSM, Trinity, and Galamian methods, adapting them to each student’s age, personality, and goals.

In my lessons, I also focus on how to practice effectively at home, tackle challenging passages, and prepare confidently for public performances.

I began my musical journey with El Sistema in Venezuela and continued my studies at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Madrid, specializing in both performance and pedagogy. I completed a Master’s in Violin Performance with a focus on Spanish music, as well as a symphonic master’s in collaboration with the Spanish Radio and Television Orchestra (Orquesta RTVE).

I currently collaborate with the Philharmonie Zuidnederland and the Spanish Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra, while also teaching private violin and viola lessons. I believe that discipline and enjoyment go hand in hand, and I enjoy guiding each student in their artistic and personal growth.
