Personal Description:
I am a professional harpist with over 20 years of playing experience and a First Class Honours Degree from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. I have a masters in Transformative Learning and Teaching from the University of Edinburgh. Since the age of 11, when I began playing the harp, I have performed internationally in solo, chamber and orchestra concerts in Bulgaria, France, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, Turkey, Dubai and the United Kingdom and have won two prizes of the International Competitions “Young Virtuosos” in 2009 and 2011 in Sofia.
From 2006 to 2017 I have participated in the master classes of Catrin Finch, Park Stickney, Elisabeth Fontan-Binoche, Skila Kanga, Gabriella Dall’Olio, Lisseta Rossi, Suzanna Klintcharova, Claudia Antonelli, Remy van Kesteren, Rossitza Milevska, Youliana Tochkova, Mared Emlyn, and Robin Ward.
As an orchestra performer, I have performed with professional and amateur orchestras in Europe, the United Kingdom and Dubai some of which are Classic FM Sofia, Thessaloniki State Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra of Russe Opera House, Birmingham Philharmonic, Halesowen Orchestra, Dubai Chamber Orchestra and others.
Tutoring Experience:
As a music/harp teacher, I have over a decade of experience in the private sector and music schools. I am a fully qualified teacher with the GTC Scotland. I have prepared students for the music grade exams - ABRSM, Trinity, and SQA. My students are at the centre of my teaching method, so it is important for me that they reveal their true musical potential, so I always encourage them to play what they love and what inspires them to continue developing.
I am fully DBS-checked and a holder of a PVG Scheme Record.
Tutoring Approach:
I strongly believe that the students have to enjoy themselves in what they're doing. Therefore, I am always carefully selecting the teaching methods according to the individual's needs and desires. I am using a series of proven approaches of stimulation for a dedication to practice and perform. I aim to encourage them to do their best to reach the set goal! I always encourage them, that with the required effort and work everything is possible. Therefore, I always search for the correct attitude in the problem-solving process.
I am keen to support your interests in music and work on what you love playing alongside developing your technique and music-making. If you are enthusiastic about taking grades exams I am happy to prepare you to a high standard for either ABRSM, Trinity or SQA exams. Lessons can take place online, at the student's place (having an instrument of your own) or at my teaching studio. I can assist you with choosing the correct instrument and level if required.
