After 6 years of studying piano, jazz piano and pedagogy in the Netherlands, I am back in France. I was the top piano teacher in the French community of Amsterdam for 3 years with 30 students per week.
My goal as a teacher is for students to develop artistic autonomy through the development of technique, music theory, confidence, and ear training. My lessons are geared towards this, regardless of the repertoire. I am open to student suggestions and creative profiles, and I am able to guide students and introduce them to musical works, as well as improvisation and composition techniques, all in a fun and supportive atmosphere!

Hello, welcome to my ad!

My name is Matéo and I am 26 years old. I have been playing guitar for 9 years and teaching it for 5 years. After studying at the conservatory and music school, I obtained my Diploma of Musical Studies (DEM) specializing in jazz guitar. Over the years, I have been able to accompany around forty students, both in private lessons, group lessons and at the conservatory where I teach today.

OPTION1) The course I offer is aimed at beginner to intermediate level guitarists, of all ages (children too!), in acoustic and electric guitar.
My goal is to give you the essential basics of the instrument (body position, technique, chords) as well as an understanding of fundamental musical concepts (rhythm, ear, reading tablature and/or music theory) which will be very useful to you as a musician.
We will base our learning as quickly as possible on real pieces of music, if possible suggested by the student because I think that learning by playing the music you like is the most motivating method.
As a teacher, I have always adapted as best I could to each profile to make them learn in the way that suited them best, make them play the music they like, help them with their difficulties and push them to surpass themselves in their abilities.
Finally, I always make sure that the lessons take place in a calm and pleasant atmosphere so that the student progresses at their own pace and learns while having fun.

OPTION 2) This course is for intermediate to advanced guitarists (and musicians in general) who want to acquire a deeper understanding of music theory. What we can cover, depending on your needs: analysis, harmony, composition, transcription, improvisation, music theory, ...

Lessons can take place at my home, in the 15th arrondissement, or at the student's home where I can travel (for an extra) within a reasonable radius.

Declared via CESU (Universal Employment Service Check) or self-employed invoice.

Bass and guitar lessons for beginners: this course is aimed at all young musicians who dream of performing or those who want to learn the passion of the guitar or bass!

For me, music is above all a passion. We will therefore work primarily on the pieces you wish to learn, whatever your preferred style (rock, pop, reggae, funk, metal, etc.).
We will still see some new things from time to time because it is both important and nice to open up to new things to progress ;-)

Depending on your goals, you can approach music with or without music theory (not at all mandatory to make music and achieve a good level on the instrument).

CV:
- Holder of a DEM in Contemporary Music specializing in Electric Bass at the Paris Conservatory
- Graduated with a degree in musicology from the Sorbonne
- Graduated from a CEM in classical music theory at the 9th arrondissement conservatory

I'm Romain, a university student and passionate pianist for about ten years. After a classical education at the conservatory, I developed a more intuitive approach: playing by ear, personal arrangements, simplified theory, and above all... fun from the very first lessons.

My name is Axel, I have been a passionate guitarist for over 8 years.
Over the years, I have had the chance to participate in numerous musical projects which have allowed me to explore varied styles and develop solid stage and artistic experience.

I regularly perform live with my bands, and I record and compose for my own projects as well as for other artists. I recently started accompanying a French pop artist on tour throughout France, which gave me the opportunity to play in some great venues, including La Cigale in Paris.

At the same time, I am passionate about teaching guitar. I have worked for various home tutoring organizations (Lucadom, Wiplay, Playnotes, Allegro Musique, etc.) as well as Musique et Compagnie, the largest private physical music school in France, with over 1,300 students.

My lessons are tailored and personalized to each student based on your tastes and expectations. I go through learning pieces to learn or develop specific techniques and to acquire a solid musical repertoire that will be based on your tastes without having to learn music theory first.

My name is Loris, I'm 22 years old, and I'm a student at the Paris Conservatory (CNSMDP) in the jazz department. I've been playing saxophone since I was 14 and previously studied in Germany, where I'm from. Since I started playing, I've performed in various big bands and solo projects, such as the South German Youth Jazz Orchestra. For my own projects, I've toured throughout Germany, France, and the Netherlands. I also taught for a long time in Germany at a music school, where I had students ranging from 11 to 65 years old, and I thoroughly enjoyed teaching all levels and musical styles! Having gained considerable experience, I know what's important for each student and how to best achieve their goals and, above all, make learning enjoyable! I specialize in jazz, but I'm open to anything!

See you soon, I hope.
Loris!
