I'm a Violist from Argentina living in South Wales, eager to pass on what I've learnt! I can teach violin and viola in English, Spanish or Welsh!

Advert description
I started my journey with the violin when I was 8, almost 20 years ago, and I haven't stopped since! I've been through many different teachers, workshops, and playing experiences, with different people and different methodologies. After finishing school I went to University in Argentina to study to be a Music Teacher, specializing on the Viola. During my 5 years there I had much experience in ensemble and orchestra playing, even becoming a part of the Province's Symphonic Orchestra! (Orquesta Sinfónica de Río Negro)

Unfortunately I wasn't able to finish my degree as I had to put it on hold to come to Wales, for personal circumstances. But here I'm still working on my skills through private lessons and preparing to sit my grade 8 exam, while also teaching violin in a local music school, Llanelli School of Music and Drama.

My teaching is based on my ample experience learning from different teachers with a variety of methodologies, and on what I progressed in my university degree. I'm still learning to teach, but I enjoy it and find it very rewarding, and can see a definite improvement in my pupils playing!

I'm always working with my pupils to find a relaxed and balanced body posture, as this is fundamental to good and long-term playing. We'll also spend plenty of time going back to basics, working on good sound production, and developing a good, solid tecnique which will be a firm foundation for everything that will come further on.

I'm looking forward to helping you along your violin/viola journey!
