Teaching
No two students are the same so it is important that one finds a teacher who is experienced and able to adapt to each student.
Robert has taught for 40 years, first at Trinity College of Music then the Royal Academy of Music and in 2013 September moved to the Guildhall School of Music & Drama Junior Department, London…
Robert's Philosophy
Robert is a highly enthusiastic, experienced violin and viola teacher.
In addition to the London music colleges, Robert also provides private violin and viola lessons at his fully equipped studio in the centre of Bath.
Robert teaches all ages and abilities and those who also want to work towards exams and diplomas.
He has extensive knowledge and experience, enabling him to tailor an individual programme for each student, helping them to achieve their potential. Many of his students have gone on to study music at music college or university, many have joined the National Youth Orchestra or the National Children’s Orchestra.
Students have also been successful in music competitions, many of whom are now working professionally within the music industry.
Robert teaches students who just want to play for the enjoyment and develop as quickly as they can. We can’t all be Nicola Bendetti, but we can all enjoy the experience of learning the instrument.
