Hi! I am a violinist currently studying at the University of Southampton. I offer violin lessons and grade 5 theory tutoring across wide levels no matter a beginner, preparing for 1 - 8 grade exams, working towards GCSE practical exams, or just learning for some fun! I specialise in helping students progress through ABRSM grades and Grade 5 Theory as well as GCSE practical exams.

I hold a performance diploma for violin (ARSM) and have achieved distinction in ABRSM grade 8 violin. Academically, I achieved GCSE music Grade 9, A-level music A* in performance and composing, A in appraising. Outside of my academic life, I have performed as a first violinist in youth orchestras as well as being the concert master in inter school orchestra (ISSP). Moreover I have had experience playing as a wedding violinist and gained extensive solo recital and chamber performance experience being in quartets.

My teaching focuses on clear and measurable progress that are applicable in exams especially in core techniques: posture, bowing, intonation and musical interpretation. My teaching style is not not strict nor textbook like, I prioritise engagement with students, tailoring on what your goals of learning are, exploring different repertoires, playing styles and practice methods that works the best for you. I am able to provide detailed personalised notes, practice materials and theory past papers. Always feel free to ask questions or submit practice videos for some feedback anytime!

What I offer:
Strong understanding in ABRSM, GCSE, A level exam requirements
Personalised lesson notes + practice plans
Music score materials
Grade 5 theory notes and past papers
Feedbacks between lessons

All my lessons can be taught in English, Cantonese and Mandarin depending on what helps the student learn most effectively. I am based in Southampton, will be more than happy to teach face to face if possible!

If you are doing GCSE Geography and sometimes feel like topics are all over the place and want someone to help break down and simplify them, this class is for you! I am currently doing BA Geography in the University of Southampton but I cover both physical and human aspects of geography. My lessons are straightforward, relaxed and progress focused helping you understand and apply, not just memorising pages of notes. I specialise in AQA but notes and lessons can be tailored to your respective exam board.

You will learn how to:
- reimagine concepts in geography
- strategically approach exams
- structuring your answers
- analyse graphs
- how to pick case studies
- revision strategies
- time control

What you will get in lessons:
- clear step by step explanations
- marked practice questions with feedbacks
- personalised topic notes and revision plans

My lessons can be taught in Cantonese, English and in Mandarin. Feel free to contact!

Rudolf
Rudolf’s apprenticeships with master-players and professional work alongside colleagues in eminent ensembles have made him aware of a wide range of techniques that suit individual players. It has accordingly given him a strong belief in the need to address students individually to get the best from them and ensure that they enjoy their playing and progress with it. For this reason Rudolf also feels strongly about students getting into good habits with their playing practice, not only musically but also physically.

One of the important aspects of his methodology of violin teaching is to ensure that students are instructed and helped to adopt healthy postures whilst playing. These good habits need to be instilled early in order to avoid muscle strains and tensions and later damage, so that students can play comfortably and healthily, and enjoy making music (such instruction is also good more broadly in ensuring good posture for class work and other situations throughout life). As part of this aspect of his teaching he also uses exercises with elements of the Alexander Technique, yoga and breathing techniques.

His formal studies in music pedagogy, and teaching practice along with his regular playing with internationally renowned ensembles, his private teaching of young violinists and work as a concertmaster, organising concerts with peers and students at Southampton, Winchester and Budapest, allows him to bring a range of experience and expertise, as well as enthusiasm, to teaching violin.
