About
Hi! Here is a little bit about my teaching philosophy and career.
I offer well rounded lessons to students of all ages, starting at 4yo.
I have 12 years of experience in teaching violin from. Some of my students are now graduates from prestigious European conservatories such as Kunstuni in Graz (Austria), Escuela de Musica in Barcelona (Spain) and many others. In my studio, violin lessons are tailored to the individual needs of each students, with the goal to enjoy and love music, as well as develop skill set to be successful violinists.
I have thought in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Spain, and United States and have worked with students of different backgrounds and skills and I firmly believe that having international education is one of the greatest strengths in my teaching.
Let's have an introductory lesson and see if we are a good match!
