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 Google meet. If you live in Oxford, Didcot, Kennigton/Radley or near by, I can also travel to your home.
Lastly, I offer 30-minute and 45-minute lessons—just contact me if you're interested!
Send me a message to arrange your free, no-obligation trial lesson :)
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Valentine

I am currently working in a Pharmaceutical company as research scientist. Teaching is my hobby and the knowledge I gained so far from my education and experience, I am sure I can teach students from the basic level to pro and make them ready to pursue their future goals. I have more than nine years of rich experience in Pharmaceutical Industries working in Analytical department, which has helped me a lot developing and applying my science and maths knowledge in real life. The level of my work is much higher than what I offer to teach and this is the advantageous for students as I can explain them everything in-depth with real world examples. My method of teaching may differ from national curriculum, but the ultimate goal is to learn the easiest way to solve the problems and get success. Please get in touch for any queries.
Thanks.
