Hello !

My name is Camille, I'm 26 years old and I grew up in France, where I completed my violin training with soloist Marie Cantagrill. I then obtained my Bachelor's degree at the University of Arts in Graz (Austria), and I also studied for a year at the Academy of Music in Krakow with Professor Wojciech Koprowski.

Currently, I am continuing my studies in violin pedagogy (IGP – instrumental and vocal pedagogy) at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna (MDW).

Thanks to my experience with teachers from various countries, I have acquired a lot of knowledge in pedagogy, study techniques, musicality, etc., which I would love to share with you!

For me, it is essential to cultivate the pleasure of playing and to work on technique in the service of music.

Courses can be given in French, German or English, depending on your preferences.

I offer lessons at my home (equipped with an electric piano, music stand, etc.) or I can also travel to you, depending on the distance.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions or additional information.

See you soon !
Camille

I have played the violin for over 20 years and am currently doing a master ́s of music in violin. Music is my passion, I have been teaching violin for 5 years, in music schools as well as privately from the ages of 7 to 60.
My aim in teaching is to enable the student to experience the beauty, richness and also the fun side of music, by helping to develop the technical skills needed to express oneself on the violin. I find it very important to take into account the personal goals and wishes of the student and to create an atmosphere of encouragement, creativity and mutual understanding.
No matter if you are interested in learning to play your favourite tunes just for fun or want to build up strong, solid technique and play demanding repertoire, I would be happy to work with you.The world of music is incredibly rich and I would love to help you on the exciting journey of discovering it. I believe it important to have variety in the process of learning and to help the student to develop good practising habits.
For those interested, I can also gladly include some music theory/music history knowledge in the lessons, to understand the pieces on a more profound level.
The lessons can be taught in either Estonian, English, German or Spanish.

These music classes provide comprehensive instruction in violin, bass guitar, and essential music theory, designed to build strong technical skills and musical understanding. Students receive hands-on guidance in proper technique, tone production, posture, and instrument-specific skills while developing confidence in performance.

In addition to instrumental training, students learn fundamental and advanced music theory concepts, including rhythm, notation, scales, key signatures, intervals, and basic harmony. Lessons emphasize connecting theory to practical playing, helping students understand how music works while applying it directly to their instrument.

Classes are tailored to meet individual skill levels, from beginners learning foundational techniques to more advanced students refining their musicianship. Through structured practice, repertoire study, and performance-based learning, students develop discipline, creativity, and a deeper appreciation for music.

You can learn Violin technique with left and right hands. Lessons are created for every levels, beginner, intermediate and advanced and you can study classical repertoire, but also pop music and soundtracks and you can learn improvisation too.

I teach also piano for beginners and I can take you to play it for about three years.

You can also learn Solfeggio and Music Theory, as a helpful insert to practicing instrument.

I've been teaching music for eight years, so I know how to create an interested lesson and a specific course for you, observing your skills and motivation. You'll improve lesson by lesson, step by step, and you'll see good results.

I offer violin lessons for all ages and levels, in English or in French.

I believe in the importance of flexibility, that my job as a teacher is not to be stuck in my ways or methods but to be open to what you as an individual are seeking. I'd happy to find out what that is.

You could be a complete beginner who fell in love with the violin, or a good intermediate player who wishes to come back to the violin, or someone needing some help to prepare for an audition, or maybe you only want to play a specific type of music... In all cases, we could make it work.

I am also convinced that the relationship one has with the violin should be built out of physical ease and love for music. We often hear that the violin is a very difficult instrument, and although that is true to some extent, it doesn't need to be. I truly believe in the importance of physical exploration with the instrument to find what works best for you.

Finally, my specialization in early music (baroque and classical periods) gives me a unique approach on the classical repertoire, the evolution of musical style, and different technical insights. This background allowed me to dwell deeper in certain subtleties such as ornamentation, articulation, just intonation and sound production (I personally play on gut strings).

I also offer music theory lessons.

If you are more advanced and interested specifically in baroque violin lessons, that is of course also possible.
