Sonja Fischer
Hello, I am Sonja Fischer and in “normal” life I am a violin teacher. I teach violin and viola at various music schools and give string lessons at various primary and secondary schools.
I enjoy making music with students of all characters and ages and I also like the mixture of individual and group lessons very much in my everyday life. I also find it exciting that I get around in so many different schools and work in teams with so many different colleagues. I find it particularly exciting to find the right pedagogy for each child and, when working with groups, to always look for ways in which, despite all the heterogeneity, I can largely do justice to everyone and challenge and encourage everyone according to their possibilities.
If then something arises together that fascinates everyone because it is ultimately greater than the sum of its parts, I find that very enriching for me as well. I like the challenge of getting even those who don’t even know that they can enjoy making music together or who are firmly convinced that they are not musical.
My conviction is that a good relationship with the teacher, joy in doing and pride in the newly acquired learning steps are the best motivation for successful learning – according to the motto “the way is the goal”. I have been a member of the string camp team for many years and every year it gives me unbelievable pleasure to work so intensively with music-loving children for a week in the inspiring atmosphere of the camp.
