Ignacio Videla Ruiz
About
Hi! I'm Ignacio, I'm 25 years old and I've been studying music since I was 15, and I will never stop studying! Music is my life. I am from Argentina and I have played in orchestras in different cities there, and also in orchestras and musical groups in the United States and Germany. I have a bachelor's degree in viola and now I'm going to do a master's degree, so I think that a young professional who is still learning can be perfect for beginners and intermediate students. Also, I have experience teaching violin and viola with students of all type of ages!
Teaching Style
I always try to make classes fun and motivate my students. Music is beautiful, I don't want to have students who feel like they need to impress me, music doesn't have to make us feel anxious and pressured, in fact quite the opposite! I understand that some students really want to reach a high level of technique and musicality, and others just want to have fun and enjoy themselves, and my lessons are tailored to the students, not the other way around.
Curriculum
The teaching method will depend on the level, priorities and time that the student can dedicate to the instrument. I always focus on helping the student correct what he needs to improve in the short and long term, and the method will always be adapted to what works best for the student.
