Anna is a passionate educator whose teaching philosophy integrates European music traditions, the Suzuki method, and principles from the Paul Rolland approach. She emphasizes breaking down learning into small, manageable steps and believes in music's transformative power to build social connections while fostering values such as excellence, solidarity, and inclusion. Anna’s ultimate goal is to inspire students to cultivate a deep appreciation for the arts, find joy in making music, and develop the self-confidence that comes from achieving mastery.
Beyond her performance and teaching career, Anna co-founded the Hello Classic Foundation to create spaces where families can enjoy classical music together, making high-quality cultural experiences accessible to wider audiences in Poland. She is also the producer of "Wanda’s Adventures with Music", an engaging audio story that introduces children to instruments and music styles through a captivating narrative. Available for free on major platforms, it offers an educational experience in both Polish and English. Additionally, Anna authored the critically acclaimed children's book "Morty and Fright" (Czesio i Trema), which helps young performers overcome stage fright and serves as a valuable resource for families.
