Great to meet you all! My name is Tomas and I'm a passionate violin teacher with more than 20 years of teaching experience. I have a strong academic background in music and education. Here are some of the degrees I have obtained:

- Master Degree in Music Research from the Valencian International University

- Major in Violin Performance from the Conservatory of the Liceu Theater in Barcelona

- Teaching degree from the Barcelona Music School

- Professional degree from the Music School of Buenos Aires

- Specialist in Psychomotricity from University Miguel Cervantes

-Specialist in Early Cognitive Development from University Miguel Cervantes

Apart from teaching, I also run the world's largest Spanish-language violin blog called MyViolinBlog where I share my teaching and playing experiences. I'm also privileged to work as a conductor for the AMA Orchestra in Barcelona, where my students and I focus on musical group experience and technique.

I have teaching experience in different schools across Argentina, Spain, Poland, and Romania, I've developed a unique teaching approach that tailors each lesson to the student's goals, keeping them motivated and on track. I can also assist with preparation for school admissions exams such as ABRSM, Trinity College, and more.

As the head teacher at Esclat Barcelona Music School and Viaró Global School, I'm currently conducting research in the biomechanics of violin playing, and I'm set to publish four books on this subject this year!

Each class with me is customized to meet the student's needs, covering musical, theoretical, and postural concepts to ensure optimal comfort while playing. I love to explain complex concepts in simple terms and inspire my students to continue learning and exploring their musical abilities.

If you're interested in booking a trial lesson with me, let's discuss your goals and how I can help you to reach them!
