Helen Stanley

I am an experienced teacher of violin and viola with a love of coaching chamber music and orchestral string sections. I teach in an independent girls’ school in Ealing as well as at home and in pupils’ homes. Pupils range in age from 7 to 83! I believe in teaching each pupil as an individual, concentrating on good posture and playing position from the beginning, as well as encouraging a good sense of pitch and rhythm through Kodaly-style exercises with lots of singing.

I am the violist of Khrisma Quartet based in Lincolnshire and also play with Norwich Baroque, Prometheus Orchestra and Suffolk Baroque Players as well as other freelance ensembles.
