Piano lessons for all and Piano Therapy for students with special needs

118 £ /h

Piano lessons are a powerful tool to improve concentration and give students a sense of satisfaction. Learning the piano could have a very beneficial effect on anyone with dyslexia or any other learning difficulties if the teacher employs slightly different methods, so the process of learning remains enjoyable but not frustrating. With my experience and qualification in teaching the piano and working for many years as a special needs teacher and assessor, I am ideally placed to create a specific approach for your or your child's needs. At the same time as teaching piano up to Trinity College Certificate Level (and up to ABRSM Grade 8), I am also giving piano lessons specifically designed for students who did not progress as expected and failed to reach customary milestones in compulsory education in order to overcome the challenges and help them succeed in learning to play the piano.
Please do not hesitate to contact me directly if you have any questions or wish to discuss your individual situation.

Hello,

I offer piano lessons for children, teenagers and adults, from beginner to advanced level.

We can work on classical repertoire as well as jazz, contemporary music, film music, accompaniment, improvisation, solfège or even composition.

My approach is above all personalized: I adapt to the level, tastes, objectives and learning style of each student.

Do you want to learn a specific piece? Pick up the piano again after several years? Acquire a good foundation? Develop your technique? Learn to accompany a song, improvise or compose? We can build the course around what really motivates you.

Progress is important, but the enjoyment of playing is just as important.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced musician, my primary goal is to create a course in which you can make serious progress while still enjoying playing.

Feel free to contact me to discuss your goals.

Practicing the piano since the age of 4, I obtained in 2020 my DEM (Diploma of musical studies) from the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Strasbourg (Alsace) (equivalent to the Swiss Certificate). I am now a bachelor's student in opera singing and piano at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne since September 2020. In parallel with my studies, I have always enjoyed sharing what I myself have the chance to continue to learn, so much so that I have been giving private piano lessons for 3 years.

I believe that for the student to get the most out of his course, a great adaptability of the teacher is necessary. I therefore build my lessons according to the wishes of the student, both in the choice of the pieces he/she would like to play and in the space where the lessons take place, so that his practice of music does him good. ! It is therefore essential for me that the framework where the student practices his instrument invites him to feel confident, happy and relaxed and that the music is above all a source of pleasure, and not a constraint.

My lessons include a "music theory" part, depending on your starting level, beginner or not.

I come to your home if you wish, but can also receive you at my home in Pully.

Piano and music theory teacher, 20 years of practice, teaches children and adults in the canton of Vaud, Geneva and Friborg

Patient, caring, I listen to the students and adapt passages that are too difficult.

I base my lessons on the alliance between the learning of music theory and the practice of the instrument. I also like to offer activities such as singing for the youngest and to make them feel comfortable during lessons.

I offer personalized lessons for children and adults. I'm open to your suggestions for pieces, your preferences, and the styles that suit you best! (Classical music, jazz, film music, pop, rock, etc.)
Convinced of the importance of theoretical foundations (particularly music theory and harmony), it is possible to integrate them into the courses so that students develop with solid foundations. This then allows us to understand music in its entirety, around a rich and varied repertoire.
Having also studied improvised music at the Paris Conservatory and being a musician in several groups, I would be happy to be able to share my experience around musical creation as well as in the development of improvisation.
Anyone interested in the instrument and who would like to develop their keyboard skills is welcome, regardless of age.
Looking forward to seeing you again and see you soon!

A little more about my background:

A graduate of the Paris Conservatory, I had the chance to work alongside many exciting pianists and teachers, such as Denis Pascal, Pascal Amoyel, Rena Shereshevskaya and in improvised music Paul Lay and Emil Spányi, who were able, throughout my career, to bring me into musical research and maintain this taste for the instrument.

Being attracted by musical creation, as well as composition, I was also able to study harmony, arrangement, music theory and composition at the Rueil-Malmaison conservatory in the Paris region.

Alongside my musical projects as a classical and jazz pianist and musical composition, I devote myself to my passion for educational transmission.

I have been playing the piano for over 15 years. I obtained my Diploma of Musical Studies from the Mulhouse Conservatory, then studied at the Strasbourg Conservatory, after which I entered the Lausanne University of Music (HEMU) where I recently earned my Bachelor's degree in Musical Performance. I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Pedagogy at HEMU. Throughout my studies, I have benefited from the tutelage of five different piano professors who have instilled in me a profound passion for music. It is this same passion that I am eager to awaken in you!

I teach piano to children as well as adults. My lessons are adapted to the objectives and tastes of each individual: working on classical repertoire, introduction to improvisation, arrangement...
My teaching will allow beginners to learn to read sheet music, find solutions to your technical problems, and gain a better understanding of harmony for more advanced students. All of this is in service of music, enabling you to play your favorite pieces!

I now have the opportunity to teach at the Lausanne Conservatory as part of my Master's degree in Pedagogy.

A graduate of the Higher School of Music and currently pursuing a Master's degree in Performance, with extensive experience teaching in schools, conservatories, and private lessons, I offer piano lessons tailored to all ages and levels, from complete beginners to advanced musicians. My method is based on a structured progression, blending technique, musicality, and the joy of playing. I pay particular attention to posture, tone quality, rhythm, and listening skills, in order to build a solid foundation or refine an already advanced level.

Music is a passion that has been with me since childhood and has truly helped me find my path. It is this passion that I seek to share: the desire to progress, to understand the instrument, to push oneself, and to experience the simple joy of making the piano sing. I want each student to be able to progress at their own pace while discovering what truly resonates with them in music.
Lessons can be geared towards classical learning, exam preparation, building a personal repertoire, or simply the pleasure of playing for oneself. My goal is to combine high standards, enjoyment, and confidence, enabling each student to develop true musical independence.

A musician since my teenage years, music has always been a part of my life and has become a true passion over the years. I studied music and singing, which allowed me to develop my technical, artistic, and stage presence.

I love sharing this passion with others. Whether it's discovering an instrument, gaining confidence in one's voice, or simply playing for pleasure, the main goal is to progress while enjoying music.
