For 25 years the violin has accompanied my life and my travels. Thanks to 5 years of experience in private lessons, three years in a children's school as well as as an assistant at the Kazan State Conservatory; I offer lessons adapted to your level that will help you achieve your goals and your musical dreams.
I have been giving lessons for 3 years now in the cantons of Neuchâtel and Bern and am a regular substitute at the CMNE (Conservatoire de musique Neuchâtelois).
I am currently doing a master's degree in pedagogy at the Haute École de Musique de Genève-Neuchâtel and therefore continue to improve myself every day. I hope to make you benefit from this experience and of course to make you love the violin and music in general.
We look forward to meeting you during our first lesson!

About Me
Dear
I started the violin at the age of 5, in Russia in a small town in Siberia. Then I was selected as a scholarship holder for a school for gifted children in the north, in Khanty Mansiysk. During my three years there, I took many master classes and also participated in the creative school organized by maestro Yuri Temirkanov. After graduating in Khanty-Mansiysk, I moved to the city of Kazan and was accepted into the special music school at the conservatory. Throughout my studies, I took many master classes, including participating in Sviatoslav Richter's creative summer school in Tarusa.
Then I was accepted into the Kazan State Conservatory in the class of Yelena Rolbina and also Irina Bochkova. As a student, I worked in the student orchestra, as well as in the orchestra of the Kachalov Academic Drama Theater.
Currently in 1 year of master of pedagogy in the class of Sergey Ostrovsky and I am very
happy to be a student of the Geneva-Neuchâtel High School of Music.

As a piano teacher and accompanist, I give lessons to students of all ages and levels, from beginner to advanced.

Having grown up in a family of musicians, I started playing piano at the age of 5 in the Parisian conservatories of Aubervilliers, Paris and Saint-Maur-des-Fossés. I then continued my studies at the Lausanne University of Music, where I obtained my Bachelor's degree before enrolling in a Master's program in accompaniment.

My work as a musician is now very varied: I accompany singers, instrumentalists, and choirs, and participate in opera, orchestral, and chamber music projects. This experience allows me to explore a wide range of repertoires and work with musicians of very different backgrounds.

I have been teaching piano for several years, both in music schools and privately, and I have also helped students prepare for exams and competitions. What I enjoy most about teaching is sharing both the joy of playing and the curiosity to understand music.

Since each student has their own desires, pace, and goals, I adapt the course content to each individual. Depending on their needs, we can work on a piece, develop technique, improve sight-reading, or prepare for an exam, all while gradually building a solid foundation.

I aim to offer a comprehensive learning experience, combining piano practice with reading music, ear training, music theory, and an understanding of what is being played. I also place great importance on discovering composers, styles, and repertoires, in order to develop curiosity and musical sensitivity.

The repertoire can be very varied, depending on individual tastes: classical music, film scores, songs, or contemporary music. The goal is to find pieces that inspire practice while allowing for progress.

I pay particular attention to building solid foundations while preserving the pleasure of playing and discovering, with the aim of gradually making them autonomous in their musical practice.

I can also accompany conservatory or music school students in solfège and harmony, addressing both theoretical aspects and their practical application, up to the preparation of exams or competitions.
