I have been teaching violin for the past 16 years - both at schools and privately (in UK and Australia). As diverse as my performance experiences are, my teaching style is a hybrid of various renowned violin methods which I adjust depending on your needs. We will of course work on technique, musical phrasing and performance. But lessons with me aren’t just about violin playing.

I will help you work out what your musical vision is and I will be guiding you to your goals with a clear strategy. I also strongly believe that how we learn and what we do on violin is closely connected to our general habits, thoughts and lifestyle. So, when necessary, we will be analysing those in relation to the violin. I will often refer to various breathing and physical exercises, and quote relevant neurological and psychological studies to help you with your learning.
I find that this is a very effective method for benefiting from your lessons with me. You can find out much more about how I conduct my lessons on my website.

I tutor violinists of all ages and levels. My students continuously achieve high grades in music exams. You can find selected testimonials of my students on the teaching page on my website.
My vast experience in performing music across multiple genres means that I am able to advise you on whatever musical style interests you most. Please check out my YouTube channel and my teaching page to see videos examples of some of the music I perform.
