About Vessela
Born into a family of musicians, Vessela began learning the violin at the age of five. Later she added the piano as a second instrument, and at age seven began full time study at the National Academy of Music 'Liubomir Pipkov' in Sofia. She subsequently continued developing her music education at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music High School (Sydney) earning Eisteddfod awards and playing with the Sydney Youth Orchestra as guest member.
Vessela branched into further academic disciplines like international relations and international and European law, gaining qualifications at the University of New South Wales and University of Amsterdam, and becoming a diversely qualified professional before returning to full-time music and completing her Graduate Diploma in Music Performance at the University of Melbourne.
Vessela has eight years of experience in teaching young musicians, from beginners to advanced, and is truly passionate about her work. She has been actively involved in performing as violinist in orchestras whilst living in Belgium, and currently in Melbourne in a variety of orchestras and music ensembles.
Vessela's aim as a teacher is to develop her students musical talents, and help them achieve their best. All students prepare for AMEB examinations in either violin or piano as well as music theory, and many have achieved grades of honours and high distinction in their chosen subject.
Vessela is a full member of the Victorian Music Teachers Association (VMTA) and holds a current Working With Children Check.
