Tutoring Experience

I am a violinist and violist as well as a private music tutor. My experience as a music teacher extends for over a decade by far. I am very passionate about teaching especially bringing the students to their highest artistic standard. I am working in the music department as a violin and viola teacher at Hampton Court House ( https://www.hamptoncourthouse.co.uk)

All the pupils that I have taught proven to be successful and become passionate about music. Additionally, I organise concerts for my private class at least twice a year so all the pupils can experience the stage performance, sharing their music making with family, friends and music lovers.

I am available to get on board more students interested playing either the violin or the viola.
Moreover, a bit more information about myself. I studied at Royal Academy of Music and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance where I obtained three master degrees. As a freelancer I play in major UK orchestras including the Orchestra of Royal Opera House, Covent Garden as well as London Philharmonic Orchestra. I am a member of Veles Ensemble, a chamber string trio ensemble (http://velesensemble.com ).
I am an active member of Music Union. I hold a certificate for enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check for working with children. I obtained LRAM (Licentiate of Royal Academy of Music) teaching Diploma.

Approach to Music Tuition

I believe that teaching music should be always a joy. My aim is to create a friendly environment where pupils can develop freedom in their instrument playing. I relate to a mixture of Russian, German violin school in a sense of setting the fundamental elements for instrument playing ( rhythm, intonation, sound production, music style) supplemented by practical experiences for most expressive playing.

During teaching I do my best to pursue pupils developing healthy posture, free of physical strain for best results. In our invigorating journey  pupils will go through a voyage of new discovery that is always positive and effective for building pupil’s confidence. Gaining effective practise routines will be always an important part during our music lessons.

I am available to accommodate music lessons at home or to travel too pupil’s home subject to an extra fee.
