About Jan
Born in Poland, he learned at a specialist music school in Warsaw. He then studied violin and chamber music in Hannover, Luxembourg and Saarbruecken before obtaining his Masters Degree with Distinction at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. His international education allowed him to have a broad perspective on different schools of teaching music which all are an inspiration in Jan's own teaching activities.
Jan’s classical experience spans from early music projects with Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Andras Schiff and Phillippe Hereweghe, through romantic and contemporary repertoire with Lorin Maazel, Kurt Masur, Riccardo Muti, Gustavo Dudamel, Sir Simon Rattle, Andris Nelsons and Herbert Blomstedt. He has toured the world with the Philharmonia and the LSO playing in majority of the main concert venues across the globe including the Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Philharmonie in Berlin, Musikverein in Vienna, Lincoln Center in New York, Walt Disney Hall in Los Angeles. Jan has worked as principal and co-principal violinist with the Philharmonia Orchestra and the Oxford Philharmonic.

I am a patient teacher and I adapt my teaching methods to accommodate each individual student's needs. I like to help my students develop skills to explore their areas of interest and boost their confidence as musicians. Whether it's Bach, Mozart or Taylor Swift, I can teach you how to practise efficiently and help you enjoy playing music. My lessons typically last 30, 45 or 60 minutes. I have been teaching music for over 20 years. I was one of the founders and the Planning Director of the Polish National Youth Orchestra where I taught individual lessons, led sectional rehearsals and creative workshops. In the UK, I have for many years worked extensively with the Philharmonia Orchestra Learning and Engagement department as workshop leader and coach. I also took part in a broad variety of London Symphony Orchestra Discovery projects. I teach privately and currently my students' ages vary from 5 to 45. I have coached Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance orchestra and have worked as visiting lecturer at University of West London. I have also given masterclasses and led workshops in Germany, Poland and the UK. I have been a performing musician for over 20 years and I have a broad international musical experience ranging from performing Mahler at Suntory Hall in Tokyo with the London Symphony Orchestra and Sir Simon Rattle to recording with Ed Sheeran at Abbey Road Studios in London.

Perfect! I thoroughly enjoyed our first lesson! I have been playing the violin for a long time and Jan was able to pin-point details and help me improve and he was able to articulate effectively what he had in mind. Definitely suggest him for beginners but also professional violinists!
- Naomi is a very dedicated student, keen to learn, patient and focused. I am sure she will keep developing both as a violinist and a musician.Jan's response :

Jan has taught my daughter violin for the last few years. He is a great teacher who makes lessons fun and relevant, as my daughter enjoyed learning songs from a variety of genres, including her favourite pop artists. He is reliable and trust worthy and I would highly recommend.
Our 9 year old daughter thoroughly enjoys her violin lessons with Jan. She is a beginner and we have been so impressed with how Jan has inspired her to feel so passionate about learning this new instrument. We feel lucky to have such a skilful and enthusiastic teacher who is not only teaching the practical points of learning the instrument but it is all done in a fun, relaxed way to inspire a love of music. My daughter has also been lucky enough to see Jan play live concerts which has felt special and an inspiration. Jan is professional, warm and kind. He gently balances instruction with encouragement, developing a beautiful relationship with music with progression in the instrument.
Jan has been teaching our 7 year old son for almost a year now and he is a truly incredible teacher. Otis had never played before and the progress he has made and the passion he plays with is so wonderful to see. We are very proud of what he has achieved and it’s all down to Jan and his teaching.
Jan is a brilliant teacher of both children and adults. He takes the time to understand how best to teach each student and to find out what music interests them to encourage a love of music.
