Konstantina

I have been teaching private one to one lessons for about three years now, with pupils of any age.

I am a very friendly, warm and patient person and I aspire to create a comfortable and fun environment, in which the student is comfortable to ask questions and improve.

Experience: I am currently in the Postgraduate course at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland studying with Maya Iwabuchi, leader of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in RCS with Katie Hull, assistant concertmaster of the Scottish Opera, as my principal tutor. I had the opportunity to receive masterclasses from teachers around the world such as Joseph Swensen(USA), Lutsia Impragimova (UK), Simon James (USA), Leland Chen(UK),Dmitri Sheinkman(Russia/Israel), Dimitris Handrakis (Greece), Simos Papanas (Greece),Mikis Michaelides(Greece) and Matheos Kariolou (Austria).

From a young age I have been a member of various orchestras in Cyprus, Scotland and France including Mediterranean youth Orchestra, RCS Symphony Orchestra, Cyprus Youth Symphony Orchestra, which I have played from many positions such as concertmaster, assistant concertmaster and principal second violin.

Recent solo performances include playing with Mozart violin concerto no. 5 with the Cyprus Youth Symphony Orchestra and Saint Saens’ Havanaise op.83. with Cyprus Symphony Orchestra.

The discipline of the Conservatoire and the new techniques I have been taught have improved my musicianship greatly, and I am very eager to pass on this knowledge to other players.
