INTRO TEXT FOR VIOLIN TUITION :
Hi there!
My name is Valentine, and I'm a French violinist currently based in Abingdon (Oxfordshire), England.
I studied violin for six years at the Conservatory of Music in Nîmes, in the South of France, and passed my ABRSM Grade 8 Violin Performance exam. Over the past 2 years, I've had the opportunity to perform with various orchestras, including the Penang Symphony Orchestra in Malaysia (South East Asia), where I lived for nine months. I've also had the privilege of performing at private events, such as weddings, religious ceremonies, and birthdays. These experiences have enhanced my teamwork skills, taught me effective practice techniques, and deepened my passion for sharing music and bringing joy to others.
Now, I love sharing this experience with students of all ages and backgrounds, helping them grow and develop as musicians while ensuring they enjoy their time with the violin! I’ve been teaching violin privately for about two years to beginner and intermediate students of all ages, both online and in person. Additionally, I taught at a private school in Bouillargues, South of France, during the 2022/2023 academic year. I’m dynamic, passionate, caring, and love helping others make progress while having fun with their instrument.
I can teach both classical music and traditional Celtic fiddle (mainly music from Ireland, Scotland, and Brittany). If you'd like to play fun movie soundtracks, that's possible too—I can arrange pieces that suit your level!
Feel free to visit my website or Facebook page for testimonials from current and past students, as well as performance videos.
I offer in-person lessons in Abingdon or online lessons via Skype. If you live in Abingdon, Oxford, or Didcot, I can also travel to your home.
Lastly, I offer 30-minute lessons—just drop me a message if you're interested!
Send me a message to arrange your free, no-obligation trial lesson :)
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Valentine

I currently teach EDEXCEL GCSE Psychology and AQA A-level Psychology. I am passionate about engaging students in the Psychology course and the wider world of Psychology. I have taught all aspects of these courses and the schools results for the subject are always higher than national average.
For the last two years I have also examined for AQA A-level Psychology.
I am currently into my second year of my part-time masters in Teaching and Learning at Oxford University in which I am running a project on how to help new sixth formers adapt to independent learning successfully.
In these current challenging times, I know students can feel behind on their work and I would be happy to help them revisit content they have covered during their time away from school or to revise and consolidate previous content covered.

I have been a private tutor for nearly six years for multiple companies - both in person and online. I have hosted exchange programmes to help students with English as a foreign language. I have helped to run summer schools. I have been educated at two Russell Group universities: my undergraduate degree in English Literature and History was acquired from the University of Exeter, while my postgraduate degree in English PGCE with QTS was acquired from the University of Oxford. I have been teaching English in a state comprehensive school for nearly four years, in which I have taught/still am teaching KS3 English, GCSE English (both Language and Literature), and A Level English Language and Literature (all with AQA). I specialise in teaching English to any secondary aged students; however, I have experience in teaching the eleven plus and am also able to help KS2 students with preparation for English at secondary school. I could tutor locally in Witney; however, due to my long working hours, online tutoring is preferable.
