About Zhana G.

4.9
(31)
I have been a freelance violinist and a professional violin teacher for the past 30 years. Playing in the orchestra and teaching students are two of my greatest passions in life. As a private violin instructor, I firmly believe that education is impossible without student motivation and passion. As much as I love teaching, my best experience is also learning from my students. Education - received in the Republic of Georgia (Eastern Europe) - Tbilisi State Music Academy - 7 year degree in Violin/Piano performance. - Tbilisi State College of Music and Arts - Bachelor's Degree in Violin Performance. - Tbilisi State Music Conservatory - Master's Degree in Violin Performance. I am very fortunate to love teaching because it allows me to share my knowledge and incredible experiences that I have acquired in my 30 years of being a musician in Europe and the United States. Professional work experience: Greenwich Village Orchestra -NY,NY - Park Avenue Chamber Orchestra - NY,NY - Charlotte Symphony Orchestra - Florida - Tbilisi State Symphony Orchestra - Georgia - Tbilisi State Opera House Orchestra - Georgia - Tbilisi State Sympho-Jazz Orchestra - Georgia - Tbilisi State Pop - Jazz Ensemble - Georgia *** Lesson Details *** Each lesson will be taught in response to current needs of a student but the following are the parts that make up an entire lesson: - Technique - Theory - Music - Practice All together are basic fundamentals. My job as a teacher is to help you find a place for music in your daily life and to make a practice time more of an experimental discovery play, than boring work. Once you find a key, it opens up a whole new world of communication. As a private violin instructor, I believe that education is impossible without student’s motivation and passion. Perhaps you have decided to become a professional musician or maybe you want to play for your own enjoyment... Whatever your goals are, I can lead you there! Let's make it happen together because it is never late to follow a dream! *** Studio Equipment *** Music studio set up in the living room. Parents are welcome. *** Specialties *** Classical

Zhana is the best violin teacher I have ever had. She is so patient and enthusiastic about music and teaching. I enjoyed her class a lot. She is also warm and helpful outside of violin class. I learned a lot from her, and I really like her!!

I am a beginning adult and after my first lesson with Zhana I can't wait for my second lesson.

Zhana is a great teacher, who has taught me a lot in just a few months. I started as a complete novice and each lesson with her makes me more interested in the instrument. She will identify weak points right away and provide helpful tips to remediate. She has always been flexible to accommodate me in her schedule. Her private studio is located very centrally and is easy to reach.
