My name is Eleni and I’m super excited to be your clarinet teacher! I’ve been playing the clarinet for almost 20 years and it’s been such a huge part of my life. I’ve had some amazing experiences with this instrument, and now I would love to share all of them with you!
The reason I love teaching is simple – music is fun, expressive, and it brings people together. I want to help you enjoy playing the clarinet as much as I do. Whether you’re just starting or already know a bit, I’m here to help you improve, have fun, and find your own sound.
For me, teaching is about enjoying the process, building confidence, and getting creative with music. I’m here to guide you and cheer you on every step of the way. I’m really looking forward to working with all of you and helping you discover how awesome playing the clarinet can be!
Whether you're picking up the clarinet for the first time or looking to refine your skills, my lessons are designed to meet you where you are and help you grow. Each lesson is tailored to your individual needs, focusing on both technical skills and musical expression.
Here’s what you can expect:
Personalized Instruction: I’ll create a lesson plan that matches your current level, goals, and learning style. We’ll cover everything from the basics (like fingerings and embouchure) to more advanced techniques, such as tone production, articulation, and phrasing.
Flexible and Fun Approach: I believe that learning an instrument should be enjoyable! My teaching style is flexible, and I encourage students to explore different genres and pieces that inspire them, while also building a strong foundation.
Practice & Progress: We’ll set achievable goals each week, and I’ll give you tips on how to practice efficiently. Progress happens over time, and I’ll be there to support and motivate you along the way.
Music Theory and Sight-Reading: In addition to learning how to play, we’ll also cover music theory and sight-reading to help you better understand the music and become a more well-rounded musician.
Whether you want to play for fun, prepare for performances, or work towards exams, I’m here to help you succeed!
