Since October 2023, I have been living and teaching in France at the Conservatoires of Yvetot, Maromme, and Givors. I have worked with students ranging from young beginners to adult amateurs and more advanced players. I have particularly valued introducing beginners to the cello, carefully guiding their early technical development while fostering curiosity, imagination, and enjoyment.

 

Working within a different educational system and culture has broadened my perspective and deepened my commitment to inclusive, high-quality music education.

​

Alongside my teaching, I maintain an active freelance performance career, working with orchestras in Lille, Paris, Avignon, and Lyon, and contributing to the educational project Les Papillons de Terezín. Balancing professional performance with teaching ensures that my students benefit from a strong artistic foundation. 
 

My artistic profile also includes composing, improvising, singing and songwriting, all of which contribute to my pedagogy.

My teaching approach combines structure and clarity with creativity and energy. I aim to deliver lessons that are engaging and varied, balancing disciplined technical work with spontaneity and musical exploration. I am passionate about helping young people fulfil their potential, building confidence and resilience while supporting them to develop both technically and artistically. 

As I now relocate for the next chapter of my life, I am highly motivated to build and nurture a thriving cohort of cello students at SMA.
