About Calyssa

I earned both my Bachelors and Masters degrees on scholarship from the Royal College of Music studying both Violin Performance and Composition for Screen. As a professional violinist, composer and arranger, I have performed with many artists including most recently Andrea Bocelli on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, recorded numerous soundtracks for BAFTA-nominated and Oscar Short Listed feature films, television shows, pop albums, adverts, video games, and podcasts and have arranged orchestral tracks for Grammy-award winning artists. I currently hold a teaching post at a well-respected private school in south west London where I teach 1:1 lessons, coach three different chamber groups and offer music theory and aural tutoring.

About the lesson

From my own experience, I understand the importance of balancing the teaching of technique, while also bringing the inherent joy of music-making to the forefront. I have 19 years of experience teaching all ages, both privately and in school, which has included preparing students for ABRSM and Trinity examinations, teaching music theory classes and mentoring students for their A-Level compositions. During the pandemic, I adapted my teaching to fit the needs of the online spectrum including creating backing tracks for my pupils to practise along to, arranging songs for ensembles to work on over Zoom, and hold performances so that pupils, despite being at home, can still work towards an end goal each term and share it with their family and friends. After seeing the success of this type of string teaching through these online platforms, I moved all of my teaching online and haven't looked back! Being online gives the students and myself more freedom in terms of scheduling, work/school and home/life balance, and provides a more achievable routine enhancing a steeper grade of improvement. I have also found that through the online platforms, I am able to teach students all over the world which (once we've worked out the timezones!) has been amazing!

Calyssa is an incredibly knowledgeable, caring and attentive teacher who makes learning enjoyable. She adapted to the needs of my daughter who always comes away from Calyssa’s lessons with a smile on her face and wanting to practice before next week’s lesson!

Calyssa is a gifted musician but also an inspiring teacher! My son said he learned more in 1 lesson with Calyssa than in the years he spent with his last two teachers and that he likes the violin again!

By far the best music teacher we’ve had. She helped our son Nigel with music theory who was struggling immensely, and Miss Calyssa taught our younger daughter violin who wanted to quit until we changed to Miss Calyssa. Now Ellie is growing, improving leaps and bounds, and it’s her favorite class. We can hardly believe it. Miss Calyssa looks so young, but her wealth of knowledge with music and with teaching kids is unsurpassed. Her creativity and sense of humor makes learning a joy. I’m so thrilled we found her! A lifesaver with her fun remote classes during covid! They both were super engaged! Thank you!
