Learn from the perspective of an active classical soloist, receiving personalised guidance at every age and level.
Teaching Philosophy
As a classical violinist, my life on stage shapes the way I teach. In this short introduction, I share my approach to sound, expression, and musical storytelling — the same principles I bring to my performances.
What I Offer
Every student arrives with a unique musical voice. My role is to help you shape it with the same care, discipline, and artistry that guide me when preparing a recital programme.
Lessons are thoughtfully tailored for students who are:
-
beginning their journey with the violin
-
returning after time away
-
preparing for exams, auditions, or performances
-
refining technique, sound, and expressive detail
-
seeking support with repertoire, interpretation, or stage presence
Together, we create a learning path that supports your growth with clarity, intention, and respect for your individual pace.
My Teaching Approach
My approach to teaching grows directly from my life as a performer — the discipline of daily practice, the search for colour and character in sound, and the joy of sharing music with an audience. These values shape the way I guide each student.
Our work together centres on:
-
healthy, sustainable technique
-
beautiful and resonant tone production
-
expressive phrasing and musical storytelling
-
thoughtful, efficient practice habits
-
confidence, curiosity, and genuine enjoyment
My aim is to help you develop both skill and artistry — whether you aspire to perform or simply wish to play with greater ease, expression, and musical understanding.
Online Lessons Format
Online lessons offer the possibility to study with me from anywhere, bringing the discipline and artistry of classical violin playing directly into your own space, through Google Meet platform.
All you need is your violin, a music stand, a device with a camera, and a stable connection. After each session, you receive personalised notes to guide your practice with clarity and intention.
Music Theory Support
For those who wish to deepen their understanding of music, I offer optional theory sessions. These lessons enrich violin study by strengthening your sense of harmony, structure, and musical independence.
They are particularly helpful for exam preparation, sight‑reading, and developing a more confident, informed approach to interpretation. Sessions may be taken individually or in small groups.
First Lesson
An individually-booked first lesson is available for new students who would like to experience my teaching style before beginning regular lessons. This introductory session gives us the chance to meet, discuss your goals, and explore how we might work together. To arrange your first lesson, please use the 'Lessons & Payments' section at the bottom of this page.
Testimonials
'Her professionalism and hard work ethic was infectious and evident in every lesson. Brilliant musician and teacher!'
— J.P-H, Violin Student
'As soon as
we started I found Adriana's way of teaching very effective due to the wide range of techniques that
she used to help me in my journey of learning violin.'
— I, Violin Student
'Adriana is an exceptional teacher who motivates her students to reach their full potential and feel unafraid to be challenged and stretched.
My technical ability improved dramatically along with my understanding of what I was playing and ways to interpret the music due to her experience and guidance.
If Adriana teaches you, you're very lucky!'
— M, Violin Student
'She is without question the best I have ever worked with. Her teaching is exceptionally well structured, and she has a remarkable ability to simplify complex technical and musical problems using clear explanations and practical shortcuts. She combines very high standards with genuine warmth, and is one of the most kind and encouraging teachers I know. Adriana planned everything meticulously, kept me focused, and worked tirelessly throughout the process. We achieved a spectacular result, which we all (except for her) thought was impossible. I progressed far faster than I ever thought I could.'
— B, Violin Student
'Adriana has been a fantastic teacher. The progress has been remarkable. She is diligent, conscientiousness and positive, which always adds to the enjoyment of our lessons.'
— P, Violin Student
'Her teaching method is clear, practical, and full of small shortcuts that make a real difference to progress. She pays close attention to detail while never losing sight of the music as a whole. She is also one of the kindest and most encouraging teachers I have had, which made lessons both motivating and enjoyable.'
— B, Music Theory Student
