Hello, I'm Adelina! I'm Romanian and I've recently graduated my master’s in violin performance at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp.
Apart from playing music, one of my other passions is teaching. While having a degree in pedagogy, I've had several violin and music theory students so far. I’m experienced with teaching children/teenagers between the ages of 4 and 15. However, I’ve had adults in my class as well!
As my profession requires, I’m calm, creative with musical games and have quite a lot of patience. I’m fluent in Romanian and English and have a B1 level of French.
Don't hesitate to contact me and let's make learning fun! :)

Looking for a passionate and professional piano teacher for your child or for yourself? My lessons are designed to bring out the joy of music and enhance creativity, while also gradually improving technique based on age and individual abilities.

As a dedicated and experienced teacher with a Master's Degree in Piano Performance and Pedagogy, I take teaching seriously and am committed to providing effective lessons tailored to each student.

I offer different approaches to suit the individual needs and goals of every student. Playing an instrument should be a delightful experience and that's exactly what my lessons are all about!

PRE-SCHOOL CHILDREN (3+)
Are you a parent eager to introduce your little one to the wonderful world of music? My lessons are designed to be playful and engaging. Using specially adapted piano books, I'll guide your child through an exciting musical adventure, complete with stories and new songs to learn. We'll explore music through singing, movement, and rhythm, helping your child develop a deep and lasting love for music.

SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN
The lessons are more than just learning songs. Children will explore a piano book filled with stories, characters, engaging music, and games. Depending on preferences we can dive into playing music with accompaniment recordings, which allows children to immerse themselves in a complete musical experience. Theory learning is included.

TEENAGERS
Are you looking for a piano teacher who will encourage and support your teenager's passion for music? I offer an accelerated piano book specifically designed for this age group, allowing your child to progress quickly in their piano skills. If your child already has experience in playing the piano, I build on their existing knowledge and continue to expand their skills and creativity.
I understand that every student has their own goals, whether it's playing for fun or aspiring to be a professional musician. That's why I adapt my lessons to fit your child's intentions. By offering a variety of musical pieces for them to choose from, and being open to their suggestions, I believe that playing a piece they enjoy is more effective in keeping them motivated.

ADULTS
Are you worried that you're too old to start learning the piano? Don't be! It's never too late to pick up a new skill, and as an adult, you have unique advantages over children when it comes to learning music. You have greater focus, a better grasp of music theory, and a strong motivation to succeed.
Do you have a favorite song that you've always wanted to play but thought it was too difficult? There are plenty of classical and popular melodies that have been arranged for beginners, so you can start playing them right away. I'll also recommend a piano book specifically designed for adult learners, which will help you build up your skills at a comfortable pace.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

Currently a student in psychomotor skills, I have been playing the violin since I was 5 years old, today I really want to humbly transmit what I know !! :)
It will be a question here of co-constructing the course with my student. These courses will be developed around:
-bodies warm-ups
- learning music theory (underlined by singing, body percussions, etc ...)
-practice of the violin, of course, with or without sheet music support (ear work)
-a time for self-expression with improvisation
The important thing here is to take pleasure in living the music so I hope that these proposals make you want !!
Beautiful day :)

Music is something very present in our lives and it is a great help to develop us as people and it is never too early or too late to learn it.

I am a professional clarinetist with several years of experience teaching both children and adults.
I also teach music theory or any kind of initiation to music
I have sufficient piano knowledge to teach children and/or beginners
As it is written in my profile, I love teaching and I really enjoy it, since it is a way to learn and share what I feel towards music.

What we could work on:

- Improve your violin technique
- Explore the vast violin repertoire
- Preparation for an orchestra audition
- Let's talk about stress on stage!

Here is some information about me:

I obtained my master's degree at the Vienna University of Music and Performing Arts as a solo violinist, as well as in chamber music.
Since 2018 I have held a position in the 2nd Violin Group of the Belgian National Orchestra in Brussels.
As an enthusiastic chamber music player, I play regularly and give concerts with different ensembles in Belgium as the Brussels String Quartet.
Teaching and sharing with you all my music knowledge has a very important role in my life.
My research on how to deal with stress on stage is another topic that I find essential and very helpful for everyone who has some issues and wants to improve in that way.

Giovanna raised and formed in Florence, where she began her guitar studies at the age of five at the Scuola di Musica di Fiesole. In September, she graduated cum laude and she's currently enrolled in the Master’s program at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, studying with Antigoni Goni.

Winner of many international competitions, she performed plenty of times in Italy and in 2023 she has held a solo concert in Milan for the XXXVIII Società Umanitaria's concerts season. Next to renowned guitarists, such as Luigi Attademo and Giorgio Albiani, she performed the world premiere of Álvaro Company’s Concert Català for ten guitars, in the revision by Vincenzo Saldarelli.

Alongside her performing activity, Giovanna has developed a strong dedication to teaching adults, children, and teenagers. She tailors each learning path to the individual student, carefully balancing personal interests with technical and artistic development, whether for amateur musicians or students preparing for conservatory admission. Her teaching approach places particular emphasis on physical awareness and well-being, guiding students toward healthy and efficient use of the body while playing. Music theory is fully integrated into her lessons and is always connected to practical application on the instrument.

I am a professional violinist and trained violin teacher, and I love sharing my experience and passion for music with my students. I teach violin to children and adults of all levels - from complete beginners to advanced students preparing for auditions, competitions or exams!
I hold two Master’s degrees, from Switzerland and Poland, where I studied with professors such as Bartłomiej Nizioł, Jonian Ilias Kadesha and Mariusz Patyra. I also completed an Erasmus exchange at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris, where I had the opportunity to study with Philippe Graffin.
I am very happy to share the knowledge and experience I have gained through many years of studying, performing and teaching, and to help my students discover their own way of enjoying and expressing themselves through the violin.

⭐ What can we work on?
• healthy and solid violin technique;
• sound, intonation and musical expression;
• interpretation and repertoire;
• confidence and freedom while playing;
• preparation for auditions, competitions and exams;
• improvisation and creativity;
• contemporary music and extended techniques;
• learning how to listen, play together and develop your own musical sensitivity.

I believe that learning the violin should be both focused and enjoyable. My lessons are based on a friendly and supportive atmosphere where you can ask questions, experiment, make mistakes and gradually become more confident with the instrument. I take the work seriously, but I also want my students to have fun and actually enjoy coming to their lessons!

⭐ Who are the lessons for?
• children from around 6 years old - with a playful but focused approach;
• beginners of any age who would like to discover the violin and music;
• school students looking for extra support;
• intermediate and advanced students who want to develop their technique, musicality and interpretation;
• musicians preparing for auditions, competitions or exams.

I think the violin is an amazing instrument because it can teach us much more than just how to play music. It develops patience, concentration, listening skills and creativity, while giving us a way to express ourselves and connect with other people. And there is something really special about learning to create a sound with your own hands and gradually making it your own.
Each lesson is adapted to the student's level, needs and goals. I teach in English, German and Polish.
