Principal

Willemijn Slijboom (Bmus Honours)  is a violin graduate from Birmingham Conservatoire where she studied with Nathaniel Vallois and received chamber coaching from David Angel & John Todd. After graduation Willemijn has continued her professional development with Lorainne McAslan. Alongside violin, she has taken courses in Kodaly and Colourstrings and currently teaches violin at Gresham's. Willemijn felt that in the area good quality, well structured music lessons and instrumental lessons for pre-schoolers and children from 5, 6 and 7 years were missing and as an answer opened the Eysnsford Academy of Music.
