I offer piano lessons for children (from 7 years), teenagers and adults (no age limit). For beginners I use the Bastian piano school as basic material. I also offer music theory. This makes it easier to read music and you get a better understanding of the music. Additional material for technique (finger strength of foam for beginners and intermediate levels) is also offered if required.

Deutsch unten - I started learning piano at the age of five and was lucky enough to work with the same teacher for thirteen years. During my university years at the Universität Mozarteum Salzburg and the Universität der Künste Berlin, I had the chance to experience different teachers and approaches to music. Through this, I came to understand how important it is to find a teacher you connect with, and how our needs can change throughout our musical journey. In my teaching, I prioritise giving my students the tools they need to become independent musicians themselves: knowing how to practise effectively, improving their sight-reading skills (which opens up an entire library of music), understanding their own strengths and areas where they can improve, and building a solid foundation of basic music theory as far as it is relevant for their piano playing. A typical lesson looks like this: we start with a warm-up, review the previous week's practice, work on current repertoire, and set clear goals for the week ahead. I focus on helping students approach new music with more understanding and confidence. At the same time, I feel that individuality can sometimes be overlooked in the process of improving as musicians. For me, it is equally important to leave space for creativity, through improvisation, exploring different interpretation options, listening to different recordings, and discovering different repertoire or musical styles. Ich habe im Alter von fünf Jahren mit dem Klavierspielen begonnen und hatte das Glück, dreizehn Jahre lang mit derselben Lehrerin zu arbeiten. Während meiner Studienzeit an der Universität Mozarteum Salzburg und der Universität der Künste Berlin hatte ich die Möglichkeit, verschiedene Lehrer und unterschiedliche musikalische Ansätze kennenzulernen. Dadurch habe ich verstanden, wie wichtig es ist, eine Lehrperson zu finden, mit der man gut zusammenpasst, und dass sich unsere Bedürfnisse im Laufe unserer musikalischen Entwicklung verändern können. In meinem Unterricht ist es mir wichtig, meinen Schüler die Werkzeuge zu geben, die sie brauchen, um selbstständige Musiker zu werden: zu wissen, wie man effektiv übt, die eigenen Fähigkeiten im Blattspiel weiterzuentwickeln (was einem eine ganze Bibliothek an Musik eröffnet), die eigenen Stärken und Bereiche zur Verbesserung zu erkennen und eine solide Grundlage in der Musiktheorie aufzubauen – soweit sie für das eigene Klavierspiel relevant ist. Eine typische Unterrichtsstunde sieht folgendermaßen aus: Wir beginnen mit einem Warm-up, schauen uns die Übewoche an, arbeiten am aktuellen Repertoire und setzen klare Ziele für die kommende Woche. Dabei möchte ich meinen Schüler helfen, neue Musik mit mehr Verständnis und Selbstvertrauen zu erarbeiten. Gleichzeitig habe ich das Gefühl, dass die eigene Individualität im Prozess der musikalischen Weiterentwicklung manchmal zu kurz kommt. Für mich ist es genauso wichtig, Raum für Kreativität zu schaffen, durch Improvisation, das Ausprobieren verschiedener Interpretationsmöglichkeiten, das Anhören unterschiedlicher Aufnahmen und das Entdecken verschiedener Repertoires oder musikalischer Stile.

I'm Mary from Berlin. I'm a teacher and piano composer with 15 years of experience and also teach at a music school. I also have a bachelor's degree in teaching English. If you're interested in teaching your children how to play the piano in addition to theoretical knowledge, I'd be happy to help you. I prefer to adapt my lessons to the needs and wishes of my students. I believe that the teacher's main goal in the first lesson is to encourage students so that he or she can soon play the music of a famous composer and composer, cultivating a love of music in students' hearts from day one. I love my job. I teach Russian, German, and English in my apartment on Wilmersdorfer Str., Berlin, or online lessons.

Liebe Musikfreunde, ich unterrichte mit viel ausprobieren und Freude am Klavierspielen. Egal welche Motivation- ob Noten lernen, ein spezifisches Stück zu spielen oder Lieder begleiten, ich werde praxisnah arbeiten und gebe Hausaufgaben, damit du auch unabhängig von mir lernst Klavier zu spielen. Ich unterrichte seit vierzehn Jahren, studierte Musikpädagogik, Klavier und Cembalo und durch viele LehrerInnen und SchülerInnen benutze ich viele lustige Wege, um schnell lernen zu können. Dieses Jahr werde ich mich auf Erwachsene und Jugendliche fokussieren. Ich freue mich auf euch. Wenn du 15 Minuten mit dem Fahrrad von mir wohnst, komme ich auch zu dir nach Hause, sonst unterrichte ich in der Universität der Künste oder bei mir zu Hause. Lieben Gruß, Simone Dear Pianoteacher searchers ! If I should describe my piano lessons I would say that they are very playful! The talking and theory is secondary, most important is to play and then see how to listen and adapt from there. My students have fun, they enjoy our lessons, otherwise they don't practise and make progress :) It is important that our lesson is making you more independant and secure to play and understand music on your own! I have teaching experiences since fourteen years, I studied music education, piano, harpsichord which I will use for your understanding. This year I will only focus on teaching people over 12 years old. If you live 15minutes by bike from me, there is the possibility to come to your home. Otherwise I will be teaching in Universität der Künste or at my home. I wish you all the best in finding the right teacher. Hope to hear you soon ! Best wish, Simone

I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

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.

Welcome to my online Piano Class. I am Maria Papadatou, and I will happily help you achieve your musical goals, from zero to the top. I love all student levels, but only towards the classical piano, of any eras' works and composers. Don't be afraid, my lesson is human-friendly 😊 Everything goes step by step! Outside the lesson time, I send you short videos when needed, to support your practice through the week. As each student is different, I focus on each ones' needs and I am always creative in helping you learn through the simplest ways - "if it's easy, it's correct", that's my motto! My greatest happiness is to watch my students grow, overcome any limit and expand in full potential! As a result, many of my students have won top prizes at major international competitions, as the IBLA Grand Prize, the Spoleto International Piano Competition, the Bach au Jazz (Lilia Boyadjieva) International Piano Competition and many others. And also, at renown online competitions, as The Royal, the IYMC, the Forte Academy, and many-many others. As a Certified teacher on the official RSL Awards Teacher Registry (MusicTeacher.com), I can now offer the RSL Classical Piano programme - a well-established international piano qualification, equivalent in level to ABRSM but with more flexibility. So, in case you need a competition or exam preparation, here you are at the right place! I will help you discover the advanced piano technique, and the ways to achieve your best musical interpretation. Also, I'll help you understand and approach each composers' unique style, and secure your concert / stage presence, with simple and effective solutions for memorisation and control. I am a very proud piano teacher too, as, except all other distinctions, on Jan 11 2026 four young students of mine were awarded and invited to performed at the winners Gala at the Carnegie Hall in New York City! They also participated to the Juilliard School festival, with masterclass and lessons, a fabulous chance and experience that I wish all young pianists could have! I wish I can always bring such great opportunities and successes to all of my "piano kids"!
