Tutoring Experience

With a passion for igniting a love of music in learners of all ages, I bring a rich and diverse teaching background to the table.

My experience spans various environments, from nurturing young minds in primary schools (as a lower-strings teacher) to guiding the musical journeys of advanced students at the university and conservatory levels (including Bachelor and Master students).

Tutoring Approach

Your First Lesson: FIRST 30 MINUTES ARE FREE OF CHARGE

Our first session will be a friendly chat to discuss your musical goals, interests, and preferred styles. Together, we'll create a personalized lesson plan that gets you excited to play!

DOUBLE BASS, ELECTRIC BASS, and OUD: I offer comprehensive instruction, leading students to a professional level regardless of age.

CELLO, GUITAR, and PIANO: For younger learners (children), I provide engaging lessons that nurture their musical foundation, reaching an intermediate level.

To further enhance my teaching, I've actively pursued master-level courses in education and pedagogy. This ensures I can tailor lessons to individual needs and learning styles, maximizing your musical journey.
