About Caius
I am a violin tutor with 3+ years of experience and a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance, specialising in Contemporary Repertoire. My classical training provides a strong foundation that I use to help students explore modern expression on the violin. I focus especially on orchestral excerpt preparation and ensemble playing, guiding students to blend seamlessly with others. My lessons emphasise essential skills like bowing technique, vibrato, phrasing, and musical interpretation. Whether working in Classical, Contemporary, or Cinematic styles, I help students develop a rich, expressive sound. I have experience preparing students for ABRSM and Trinity exams, ensuring they build confidence and technical mastery. In addition, I offer orchestral coaching to support students aiming to excel in group performance settings. My teaching balances respect for tradition with encouragement to explore creativity. I invite students to join me on a violin journey that combines solid technique with personal artistic expression. Together, we’ll develop your skills and deepen your love for music within an ensemble.

My teaching approach focuses on helping students develop a natural and nuanced vibrato, which is essential for expressive violin playing. I guide learners through controlling both the speed and width of their vibrato, showing how to apply it effectively for emotional phrasing. Vibrato is not just a technique—it’s a way to add depth and feeling to your music. Lessons include step-by-step exercises that build vibrato gradually, ensuring comfort and consistency. I emphasise listening closely to your own sound and making small adjustments to create the desired effect. This helps make vibrato feel like a natural extension of your playing. I work well with voice actors and adult learners building confidence, offering clear, consistent feedback tailored to their progress. Together, we focus on mastering vibrato in a way that enhances your unique style. I encourage patience and practice because this skill takes time but is worth every effort. You’ll learn how vibrato can bring life to melodies and connect with your audience on a deeper level. My goal is to support your growth and help you express yourself fully through your violin. With steady guidance, you’ll add emotional richness and sophistication to your playing.
