TESTIMONIALS

Katarina has tutored my son for over 6 months now. She is very motivated and inspiring, my son enjoys his piano lessons very much. He has also gained so much valuable skills and confidence since he first started. I would definitely recommend Katarina!

– Shauni, parent of Titus (age 6)

Katarina has taught my son piano since he was 4 years old. She makes the lessons fun and he’s always happy to go. As well as learning piano, he’s picking up broader musical skills each week.

– Nick, parent of Spencer (age 4)

I cannot recommend Katarina enough! She has an incredible ability to listen to your needs and tailor each lesson to fit your personal goals and skill level. Her approach is wonderfully interactive, making every session engaging and enjoyable. I started learning the violin more than a year ago, and it has always been my dream to play this wonderful instrument. As a mature student, there are times when playing doesn’t go the way you want, but Katarina is always there to encourage you. What sets Katarina apart is her immense knowledge and expertise, combined with her talent as a fantastic violin player. She has a way of breaking down complex techniques into manageable steps, all while fostering a positive and encouraging environment. If you’re looking for a violin teacher who not only helps you improve but also inspires you every step of the way, Katarina is the perfect choice!

Katarina taught my son violin and music theory. Anton really loved her. She’s very skilled, communicative and professional. She expects high standards while also being great with children. We highly recommend her! 

– Jackie, parent of Anton (age 7)

My daughter began learning with Katarina only a few month ago and is progressing very well. Katarina is incredibly patient and tailors each lessons to suit my child who can be anxious trying new things. Lessons are always varied which keeps my child interested and excited about her next lesson.

– Carly, parent of Eden (age 10)

Our daughter was struggling with learning the piano and it’s fair to say she has utterly thrived under Katarina’s guidance. She is enthusiastic and provides specific instructions/ guidance, enabling her students to really develop their skills. We’re really thrilled, particularly as our daughter loves her lessons now (and as such, is doing extremely well).

– Alexandra, parent of Ella (age 9)

I’ve had the privilege of learning the violin with Katarina for over 2 years, and the transformation in my violin playing has been remarkable. Thanks to her expert coaching, I achieved distinctions in two ABRSM grade exams. Her lessons are well-structured and she tailors her lessons to suit each student’s individual learning style and pace, ensuring that every session is both challenging and achievable. Moreover, Katarina’s passion for music is truly inspiring, she not only imparts technical skills but also shares insights into the emotional and artistic aspects of playing the violin.
My journey with her has been nothing short of amazing and I would highly recommend her.

– Sahana, private violin student

I have thoroughly enjoyed lessons with Katarina, already achieving 2 ABRSM grades at distinction level, I can see my hastened progress. She’s a great tutor, easy to understand and great at explaining, I have also done theory with her and looking forward for my grade 4 theory exam. Highly recommend her and looking forward to continue lessons with her.

I have been studying the violin with Katarina for a few years. She has a real passion for music and will happily transmit it to her students. I truly enjoy learning with her because of her patience, friendliness and flexibility. She always adapts the choice of music to my needs, and is open to a wide range of styles. Her lessons are fun!
