About Me
As a teacher, my main focus is on the needs of every student. We are all unique and have our own potentials and goals. Thus, teaching should be flexible and adaptable so everyone can achieve the best they can. whatever the age and the level is, music should be part of our lives, because it can be very beneficial for us!
Education
My musical education started at the age of 7 when I first began the piano. Later, I also started having some private violin lesson at the age of 9 which continued until the age of 15. Around 2016, I joined the Cyprus Youth Symphony Orchestra where I was playing as a tutti player and then principal viola for four years. Currently, I am at my 3rd year Bachelor, in the Koninklijk Conservatorium in the Hague, where I am also doing my minor in Education.
Experience / Qualifications
My experience in teaching started a few years back when for a couple of years I was teaching a young girl the piano. Currently, I am teaching two young adults, as part of my educational curriculum.

String instruments are often associated with written classical music and, because of their technical complexity, many players rarely dare to move beyond the safety of the score. But improvisation is not a mysterious talent we are born with. It requires as much discipline as freedom and develops through a specific set of skills that can be understood, practiced, and ultimately transformed into performance.

After more than ten years of teaching improvisation to professional string players at conservatory level, I have developed an approach that rethinks fingerboard visualization and the relationship between the ear, the hand, and the instrument, making improvisation more accessible to string players from all backgrounds.

In these lessons, I will help you understand the logic of the fingerboard, transpose effortlessly in any key, and visualize the shapes of any chord, expanding its harmonic possibilities for accompaniment. I will also show you how to create effective grooves through chops and percussive techniques, while developing a melodic language that goes beyond scales and patterns. We will explore styles including Jazz, Blues, Fusion, Pop, Rock, Brazilian, and World Music. (According to the style, we can also work with loops and effects.)

This class is intended for musicians with a solid technical command of their instrument who want to develop their improvisation skills, whether they are taking their first steps in improvised music or already have previous experience.

The lessons will be tailored to each student. I will adapt to your learning rhythm while keeping you challenged at the same time. You will receive regular feedback, advice, guidance, and learning materials.
