My goal is to provide high quality instruction through positive reinforcement thus cultivating the student’s love for music. I believe that strong technique, musical expression, and personal creativity all develop best when approached together. I aim to help students build a solid foundation while encouraging them to explore their musical identity. As an active performer, I bring real-world insight into interpretation, practice strategies, and stage presence—skills that are invaluable for both aspiring professionals and enthusiastic amateurs.

• Private online (worldwide) and in person (Malmö, Sweden) violin lessons.

• All ages and levels.

• Preparation for school exams, university admissions, orchestra job auditions, music competitions or concerts.

• I teach in: English, Italian and Lithuanian.

My teaching draws upon extensive performance and academic experience. I studied with renowned violinists and professors including Pavel Berman, Jurgis Dvarionas, Boris Kuschnir, Stephen Clapp, and Laurie Smukler, whose guidance profoundly shaped my artistic and professional growth. I further refined my skills in masterclasses with distinguished artists such as Silvia Marcovici, Sergey Krylov, Peter Oundjian, and Enrico Pace.

For more than 10 years, I’ve been teaching violin both privately and in academic institutions. My teaching background includes work at the Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre as principal assistant to professor Jurgis Dvarionas, where I worked with bachelor’s and master’s students, participated in examinations, and assisted in competition juries. I have also given masterclasses at Vytautas Magnus University and regularly taught at the National M. K. Čiurlionis Art School. These diverse experiences have helped me develop a versatile and supportive teaching approach.

Alongside teaching, I have actively performed for over two decades as a soloist with chamber and symphony orchestras, in chamber ensembles, and in international festivals and competitions. Leading ensembles and collaborating with orchestras has also helped me develop strong leadership and communication skills, which I have applied to music projects and entrepreneurial initiatives.

Through this combination of performing, teaching, and project development, I strive to provide my students not only with technical mastery but also with the artistic insight and professional skills needed for a successful musical career.
