I hold a deep passion for both classical and world music. I continue to develop that passion in younger generations through teaching and giving workshops for young children and adults, from beginners to advance levels.

Estela’s extensive teaching experience and performing expertise have given her a vast range of methodologies ideal for adapting her teaching to the needs and pace of individual students.

Estela teaches privately in The Hague, at ASH, at the St. Jans Fanfare in Zoeterwoude, and as well as online lessons. Estela teaches violin, viola, saxophone and she has developed 6 workshops:

Estela has been preparing students for ABRSM grade exams since 2011.

Individual lessons are one-on-one, with parents welcome to observe. With very young children, parents are encouraged to be involved and support during lessons. Group lessons are welcome up to a maximum of 10 students playing arrangements as well as original classical, jazz, folk, and world music depending on the level and goals of the student/s.

Lessons are available in English, Spanish, Catalan and Dutch.

Besides her soloist education and performing career, Estela also took additional courses in Basics on arrangements and composition (software MuseScore & Sibelius), Emotional Intelligence in Education and Stress, Management in Education, and Mindfulness. In her lessons, Estela incorporates the Alexander and Feldenkrais Techniques.
