Information about Imogen
Hello! I am a violinist studying for a Master`s with Ofer Falk at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. I did my undergraduate degree at the Royal Academy of Music with Sophie Langdon, and I also have the LRAM teaching diploma.
I am originally from York, and attended St Mary`s Music School in Edinburgh for three years before starting in London. I have a lot of orchestral experience, including playing in the National Youth Orchestras of Great Britain and Scotland, as well as lots of concerts and courses with the string quartet I played in at the Academy.
I learnt the piano while at school as far as ABRSM Grade 8, so am keen to take on beginners. I can also use my piano skills to accompany beginner violin pupils.
Having benefited from brilliant teachers since I was 5, I would love to give something back! I am happy to tutor anyone of any age, so do get in touch if you are interested in some lessons! Please note as a conservatoire student my schedule is not the same every week, but I am happy to be flexible and work around obstacles.
Given how COVID-19 has introduced us all to Zoom, I am open to the idea of teaching violin lessons online where necessary. Having said that, starting beginners online, particularly children, is unwise, and I do not have access to a piano at home.
Just a few points before you message me:
- I cannot teach from home in person, as I don`t have enough space
- You need to already have a violin before starting violin lessons - I don`t have any spares to lend!
- Please include your location in your message
Thanks!
Availability: My schedule is different every week - in general, most people like evenings and weekends and I am happy to teach at those times (particularly weekends). But sometimes it is necessary for me to reschedule lessons because of orchestra rehearsals etc - when this happens I`ll give you plenty of notice and offer you different times!
Willing to travel: 3 miles
Experience: I started teaching in September 2018, and have been teaching private violin and beginner piano pupils since then.
I do have a DBS check but it`s over two years old and I am not signed up to the updates, hence why it doesn`t appear on my profile. I would be happy to send you a photo of my certificate if you would like!
