About Vera
Teaching for over 20 years, it has always been Vera’s undying ambition to devote herself to helping students become fine musicians. She has successfully prepared them for auditions, conservatory entrance exams, and competitions. Her students have always exhibited consistent progress, discipline, confidence, musical sensitivity, fearless stage performance, and most of all, love and inspiration for their instrument. This has been recognized by directors of music schools in Chicago, Florence, Vienna, Berlin, and New York City who have offered her permanent positions as a violin instructor and ensemble coach. While also having lived in Berlin, she was on the board of directors for the Suzuki Method Institution.
Vera received her Master’s in a double concentration in Violin Performance and Pedagogy at Northwestern University where she studied with Gerardo Ribeiro. At Illinois Wesleyan University, she earned her Bachelor’s degree in Violin Performance where she performed Tchaikovsky’s violin concerto with the symphony orchestra after winning the concerto competition. She graduated with honors and was granted numerous scholarships and awards at both institutions.
In December 2019, Vera completed a second Master's degree in Viola performance and pedagogy with the highest honors at the renowned conservatory (Conservatrio fi Firenze "Luigi Cherubini" in Florence in Italy. She continues to teach, perform, and collaborate with musicians while broadening her stylistic palette by exploring different genres and experimenting with music production using Cubase and Logic Pro.

I want to help you on your journey on becoming a successful in any or all of the above: violinist, violist, chamber musician, and orchestral player. I will prepare you for concerts, festivals, competitions, entrance exams, just playing for your soul/friends/family, and/or also help you explore different genres and mediums.
Being able to create music is an integral part of the human condition as it helps us express and understand an exceedingly wide range of human emotion. Teaching how to do it has therefore always been my greatest passion and having been privileged with the guidance of great pedagogues in the past, it is my ambition to pass that invaluable knowledge and skill on to aspiring musicians. I am certain that every person (no matter what age) has vast potential and it is my duty as a teacher to extract those talents and nurture creativity.
