Teaching Philosophy
The most important thing for me as a teacher is to help each student reach their goals, whatever they may be. I never take on many students at once to ensure that all my students get the individual attention and care they need. Anybody can improve their violin playing, regardless of their current level or age, through earnest practice and ambition. My job as a teacher is to give each student the knowledge they need to be their own teacher and think for themselves. Health is a crucial part of my teaching style. Unfortunately, I have seen cases where teachers disregard health, which has had horrible consequences for students. Taking breaks and doing simple exercises are crucial. Addressing tensions and working towards being relaxed isn't only healthier but helps us produce a much better sound. I am Looking forward to working with you.
Musical Education
I have studied the violin from the age of 6 to 20. I began with the Suzuki method, working through the books until I was 12. As a young violinist, I often performed in recitals and concerts, learning to communicate music with an audience. During these six years, I had lessons with several teachers and played in different groups with other young musicians. I began studying under a member of the Gothenburg Opera at 13 and continued my studies for three years. At 16, I got accepted to one of Sweden's top music schools for young musicians. I studied under one of Denmark's leading violin teachers during my time at the three-year program. I have performed with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra.
Lessons on an online platform

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
