About Ellis
I’m a violin tutor with over ten years of teaching experience and a **Diploma in Classical Violin**, but my passion stretches far beyond tradition. While I have a strong classical foundation, I love exploring **crossover violin styles** like jazz, rock, hip-hop strings, and world music. I believe the violin isn’t limited to concert halls—it can live in clubs, on street stages, and in every genre imaginable. In my lessons, I bring this vision to life by teaching students how to **improvise, experiment, and break musical boundaries**. We use tools like **looping pedals** to layer sounds, creating textures and rhythms that turn a single violin into an entire band. I also guide students in writing their own solos, adapting popular songs, and discovering how to express themselves through unique tones and techniques. I encourage curiosity—sometimes that means reshaping a rock anthem for violin, or blending a jazz riff with a classical phrase. Every lesson is a mix of **technique-building and creative play**, because strong skills make freedom on the instrument possible. My approach helps students see the violin as more than an instrument—it becomes a canvas for ideas, emotions, and personal style. Whether you dream of performing on stage, jamming with friends, or just discovering new sounds, I’ll help you **explore the violin in ways you never imagined**. Together, we’ll make music that goes beyond tradition and into something truly your own.

My violin teaching approach blends **solid technique, creative exploration, and personal expression** to help every student grow into a confident musician. I begin by building strong foundations in posture, bowing, and intonation, because good habits early on make playing effortless later. Alongside this, I guide students through **ear training exercises** that sharpen listening skills and develop the ability to play in tune without relying on sheet music alone. I believe the violin is not just about notes—it’s about **telling a story**. That’s why I incorporate exercises on phrasing, tone shaping, and emotional expression, helping students bring depth and feeling into every piece they play. For those drawn to powerful stage moments or heartfelt performances, I design lessons that combine **confidence-building activities** with real-world performance practice, so they feel ready to play in front of any audience. We explore a wide range of music—classical, folk, contemporary, and even pieces connected to theatre or worship—so students connect deeply with what they play. To track growth and keep lessons engaging, I use **recording tools, backing tracks, and simple practice apps**, giving students feedback they can see and hear. Every lesson is flexible and tailored, whether the goal is to master advanced techniques, play with a group, or simply enjoy the violin for personal joy. My goal is simple: to help students find their own voice on the violin, build confidence, and discover the magic of music in their own way.
