    Clarinet lessons in Bern. Clarinet lessons online via Skype/Zoom
    Individual clarinet lessons for children and adults (all levels (English, German, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian)). Available online as well! I believe that all knowledge comes with a price of a change which then provokes us again to start learning ourselves and finding the best possible ways of expression. On the other side, my pedagogical idea is to allow pupils/students to explore themselves and to give them enough space and possibilities to try out, risk, and eventually find their way of communicating. Also, my aim as a teacher is to show that the process of learning and exploring is always, if done properly, first of all, an exploration of oneself, and therefore, cannot and should not become a dull process of receiving information without an obvious purpose. My experience as a teacher has shown me that between very young (5-12) and older people (19-27), (the age groups with whom I have worked), there is actually no big difference and that the only thing which separates the teaching process is the approach towards them as personalities. With this said and including the fact that I am experienced in working with both groups of people, I over in my add lessons to everybody, without age or skill difference. I am fluent in all clarinets from the clarinet family including the baroque clarinet and the contrabass clarinet.
