Creative Musician Masters graduate teaches singing, songwriting and performanceTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Did you ever ask yourself what your life would look like if you had more confidence? With me, your goals and self-esteem are my #1 priority. It’s estimated that roughly 85% of people worldwide have low self-esteem. This can lead to mental health issues such as anxiety and have a dramatic impact on our personal and professional lives. To combat this, we must take special care of ourselves and I believe that working towards finding our individual voices is a fantastic way to do so. Working on a creative skill cultivates greater emotional health and builds our confidence as we improve. I’m the right tutor for you if: You’re ready to take action to build your confidence You want to overcome fears around performing You want to expand the range of notes you can sing You want to discover your voice You want to improve your vocal tone You want to stabilise and strengthen your voice You want tools to manage anxiety and become a better a singer through work on breathing techniques You DON’T want to spend hours on scales or music theory I wasn’t born a naturally good singer and have struggled with anxiety for as long as I can remember. I’m now a professional singer and singing coach, signed to a record label with over 3 million streams and although I still experience anxiety, I’m far better equipped to cope with it thanks in part to breathing techniques. It’s safe to say, I know how impactful the right guidance can be. You can see it in the reviews from my students too - through my coaching, confidence blossoms alongside the voice. Make this the turning point of your life. Why not take the first step to building your self-esteem and sign up for your first lesson now? You deserve to nurture yourself!

Singing, Piano, Music Theory, Songwriting Lessons from Expert Music Industry ProfessionalTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Singing, Piano, Music Theory, Songwriting Lessons from Expert Music Industry ProfessionalTranslate this text using Google Translate.

I'm a Leeds Conservatoire Graduate with a First-Class Degree in Popular Music - Voice Performance. Professional Singer, Musician, and Performer. My appearances include performing at the Royal Albert Hall, various Television broadcasts, 5-star luxury hotels & resorts, and high-end cocktail bars. Making me an excellent option if you want professional feedback and like to work with industry professionals. Musical Background: My relationship with music began at the age of 9, when I started piano lessons and soon joined my teacher’s children’s choir, quickly stepping into receiving solos. At 14, I began one-to-one vocal training, and within two years I achieved Trinity Grade 8 with Distinction, earning the Highest Mark of the Year nationally. In 2019, I completed ABRSM Grade 8 Piano, and in 2020, I was accepted with an unconditional offer to study Popular Music at the prestigious Leeds Conservatoire, where I graduated in 2024 with First-Class Honours. My teaching technique and methodology are flexible and vary according to your learning style, aims, and goals. I have experience teaching a wide age range (6-70 years old), and I am adaptable and comfortable in teaching and tailoring lessons according to my students' experience, needs, goals, and aims. My existing students particularly highlight my communication and ability to effectively transfer knowledge, whilst at the same time having engaging, fun, and enjoyable lessons with me. Curriculum: I have been professionally coaching and teaching since 2023, working with over 100 students to develop their skills in singing, piano, music theory, and songwriting. Until recently, I was part of a teaching team at a music school in the UK, delivering one-to-one lessons. However, earlier this year I decided to pursue this independently and build my very own music coaching business, offering a more personal and flexible approach. My teaching style is modern and student-focused. That means I take the time to talk with you about the music you like, and we create lesson plans that are not only effective for your growth, but also enjoyable and inspiring, and make you actually want to continue. → No prior experience needed. We will learn everything & boost your confidence together.

Electric, Acoustic or Classical Guitar Lessons with an experienced tutorTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Electric, Acoustic or Classical Guitar Lessons with an experienced tutorTranslate this text using Google Translate.

Friendly and approachable tutor with over 20 years of teaching experience in private lessons, music schools and online. This experience is the result of years and years of studying under great guitar teachers, both in electric and classical guitar. Participating in various bands and music ensembles definitely added valuable experience, knowledge and understanding of the instrument, that goes beyond the academic way. However, what makes a great tutor is the ability to transfer all this accumulated knowledge to his students, and I'm proud to say that most, if not all, of my students thrive. My main goal is for my students to learn the fundamentals so they continue to advance even without lessons. That said, I believe it's always beneficial to have an experienced tutor to help you navigate through the wonders of music. Every lesson is tailored to the requirements of each individual student, making every session a unique experience. Over the years I have developed a method that helps my students understand and apply even the hardest parts of guitar practice and music theory. As a tutor, I follow the approach and teaching material of Berklee, Musicians Institute and London College of Music. However, I can adapt to any other teaching material/music exams board if requested. Looking forward to hearing from you and starting your musical journey together.

Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)Translate this text using Google Translate.

Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)Translate this text using Google Translate.

Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student. My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.

My lessons are tailored to each student’s age, experience, and goals. Children (7–12 years old) For younger students, lessons focus on building confidence while making learning fun. We begin with simple vocal warm-ups and ear training to develop pitch and intonation, then move on to singing their favourite songs, encouraging good vocal habits in an enjoyable way. Teenagers (12-17 years old) With teenage students, we start with more structured vocal warm-ups and exercises. As we discover their natural voice, we work on developing a comfortable vocal range, improving technique, and applying these skills through songs that suit their voice and interests. Adults and seniors (18+) For adult students, lessons are usually divided into two parts. We begin with vocal technique, focusing on breathing, diaphragm support, scales, arpeggios, and intonation. We then apply these techniques through singing, helping you develop confidence, control, and healthy vocal habits. I will give you repertoire to study or we will study the pieces you have to prepare. The final goal will be to sing on a musical accompaniment. Every student learns at a different pace. Some may spend more time building a solid technical foundation before moving on to more challenging repertoire, and that’s perfectly fine. My priority is to ensure that every student feels comfortable, supported, and confident throughout their vocal journey. I teach children, teenagers, and adults and seniors from complete beginners to advanced singers. My classical training provides a strong technical foundation that can be applied to any musical style, whether you enjoy pop, musical theatre, jazz, rock, or classical singing. Whatever your age or experience, I’d love to help you discover and develop your voice. Let’s sing!

I started my lessons with Giorgia four months ago, and I am so glad to have found her. As a 26-year-old beginner, I was not sure if I should even try to pursue learning an instrument at this point. But now I am so glad I did! I am learning online, and I was a little unsure of how lessons via webcam would go. Despite my prejudice, everything turned out great, even though my setup is quite basic. Her approach to teaching is very creative. She is able to explain things that seem hard to put into words, and she always finds comparisons and descriptions that convey clearly little details of approach that make a lot of difference in the end result. For any difficulty I encountered, she presented methods of exercise that helped correct it. Another thing that I appreciate is that from one lesson to the next, the volume of work is challenging enough that I feel I am making progress, but not to the point that I am overwhelmed. Also, even though I am just beginning and the pieces are not that complex, she explains the musical interpretation in a way that not only helps me advance my skill but also enriches the way I understand and listen to music, and I find great value in that. Her manner of teaching is very organic, and she is a patient teacher with a warm presence. I wholeheartedly recommend her lessons!

Mary has been great in our interactions. At the moment, we are meeting twice a week for an hour each session. She started with a class in which we got to know each other and she listen to my goals. Then, she prepared exercises and lessons specially designed to help me reach those goals with practice and also prepared lessons to help me continue growing as a guitar player. Moreover, she goes often out of her way to get songs challenging to my level, but that are doable with enough practice. In all, I am enjoying quite a lot of our classes and I am always looking forward to them.

I had my first lesson today and I was immediately struck with the feeling that I am in the presence of a maestro in Piano playing, a professor in teaching and an extremely patient pedagogue. It was like Lydia knew me for years and instantaneously detected my strengths and my weaknesses in my piano playing and practice. I am an adult student and I highly recommend Lydia for all ages and all levels. An exceptional teacher that provides and exceptional lesson experience.
