Anahit Tsitsikyan started her teaching career directly upon graduation from the Conservatory in 1950. She began with teaching a special violin class, and commencing in1954, she created three new subjects at the Yerevan Conservatory and began to deliver lectures on; “The History of Armenian Bowing Art”, “The History of Armenian Performing Arts”, as well as a Teaching Internship in the curriculum. The lectures of Tsitsikian were attractive to the students, not only because of their content, but also the manner in she which she taught, the fluidity of her speech, the eloquence of her language and her profound knowledge. In parallel with her teaching, she was also conducting scientific research which reflected onto the quality of her lectures, significantly enriching them.

Nearly all of the students of bowing arts during the period of 1950-80s, whether they were violinists, viola or cello players, had passed through her careful hands. Anahit Tstitsikian kept her compassionate attitude toward her students throughout her life. Although many years passed and many of her students were scattered throughout the world, she didn’t lose contact with them and continued to receive letters from them even after they were grown. She had a special approach toward her Teaching Internship course. Anahit Tstitsikian always placed great importance upon teaching young students the first steps, because she felt with great conviction that it is in these first steps where the correct upbringing and love for genuine art is developed.
