About Me

Hi! I’m Asli, a singer, composer, and sound designer with a passion for music that started in childhood. Singing and songwriting have always been close to my heart, and throughout my education, I performed as a singer in various bands, collaborating with professional musicians in Istanbul. During this time, I also taught piano and singing to children aged 4 to 6, and I absolutely love working with kids!

After completing my studies in music composition and sound technologies, I began working as a professional composer and singer, collaborating with directors, advertising agencies, and artists from different fields. Before moving to Berlin, I worked as a sound engineer at an audiobook company.

Now, I’m excited to share my knowledge and experience with passionate music learners! Whether you want to dive into music theory, master music production, improve your singing, or learn to play the piano, I’m here to guide you. Whether your goal is to shine on stage or produce your own music on the computer, I hope to inspire and support you on your musical journey. I look forward to meeting you soon!

I teach piano and keyboard skills with a friendly and encouraging approach. My students learn technical exercises and pieces/songs carefully chosen to suit each individual and I also incorporate relevant music theory. I teach on an upright acoustic piano at my place in Wedding and in some cases travel to the student for lessons.

Drums, as with bass guitar are the backbone of any good song, and the foundation upon which the music is built. Despite not being as famous as lead vocals or lead guitar. Drums in my opinion is much more fun, at all levels of performance.

I will teach you how to play the drums, how to fit the style to the genre and we will learn by practice by breaking down the famous classics, and explain what part drums played to make these classics so good.

We will use my electronic drumset, which is not as good as the real thing but is definitely good for starters. There are ways you can practice at home without a drumset as well. And we can expand later and rent a studio room, where I can jam with you on the guitar even!

Piano is an incredible instrument to learn - it provides you with a broad understanding of music, develops listening skills, and great dexterity, increases concentration, and much more.
I specialize in jazz piano but teach all musical styles according to the student's needs and wishes. Throughout the lesson we will learn music and songs, technique, harmony, ear training, theory, and rhythm - all subjects of music can be addressed through the piano!

I'm a former New York City voice teacher/coach, professional singer and an award winning composer who has relocated to Berlin. I've taught with the most reputable children's musical theatre organizations in NYC with students of all ages as well as private students and I've worked with Broadway stars such as Laura Osnes, Karen Mason and Ron Bohmer, who have also recorded my music, and I'm excited to bring my 20 yrs of teaching experience to Berlin! I teach songwriting as well, if that is something you're interested in.

I'm a classically trained singer who performed with the San Francisco Opera and other companies both in opera and musical theatre for many years. Though I specialize now in musical theatre, I am happy and comfortable teaching you to sing in whatever style you prefer. The basics are the same! In our lessons, we will work on breath, correct vowel pronunciation, placement, diction, etc... as well as getting rid of the tension and habits that keep us from singing freely and beautifully. We will also work on the musical and dramatic aspects of the material we choose together, so that you will feel comfortable at an audition or a performance. And I keep lessons fun so that you can both learn and progress each week AND enjoy yourself!

Whether just starting out or a professional who needs help working on an audition or role, I can help you reach your goals!

Hello there!

My name is Sara and I'm a classical pianist and piano teacher. I have been a pianist for about 15 years and started teaching it a while ago as well. I offer lessons in 3 different languages ( English, Arabic and German) for both beginner and intermediate levels.

I believe music should be enjoyed and comfortably played, allowing people to both connect with it and understand while challenging them to express themselves in new and different ways. Music lessons are fun and will be set to make the student confident and comfortable in their playing. If any student needs extra time or space to feel secure and safe, I will offer as much understanding and security as I can.
Trust is my number one motto, if for any reason a student feels pressured or uncomfortable they can come and talk to me directly and we shall figure out a way to make music learning fun and enjoyable for them.

I'd like to think of myself as someone who truly enjoys making a good change in the world and who tries to offer the best possible experience when getting to know the instrument and how to play it and I hope you find the trust in me to sign up for my class!

Thank you and have a lovely day

Sara

👂 My motto for teaching music: Learn with your ear, before understanding it with your brain.

Music can be explained entirely from a theoretical point of view 🤯. But I'm convinced that the best approach is to feel and sing the music 🎤💖, before understanding and interpreting it theoretically.

I teach music theory intuitively 💫. More than just a way of reading sheet music, I can show you how to deconstruct a piece of music in any genre, how to interpret chords, and how to improvise simply and effectively.

How to work the voice ? Practice ? Perform ? Compose ? Interpret a song ?
It's through technic but also practising songs from your favourite artists that you understand how to place your voice and sing your song and achieve your musical journey. Starting from the basics like breathing support, vocal routines, learning songs to practising stage presence, composition.
In my classes, I go through all this points and focus on what the student needs and wish to learn.

I had the chance to learn with the greatest Jazz singers of the New York scene. I studied, Jazz, Pop, Classical singing, which lead me to understand the voice in its full. For five years I focused on performing and touring with my different projects, and there I built my skills for the stage and being comfortable in front of a crowd.

I offer individual singing lessons for beginners and advanced students. The lessons are aimed at anyone who wants to get to know their voice better, improve their singing technique, or develop musically and artistically.

In our lessons, we work on topics such as breathing technique, posture, resonance, intonation, expression, and musical interpretation. I tailor the lessons to your personal goals and skill level, whether you want to sing classical music, opera, musicals, or simply with more freedom and confidence.

Through my opera studies at the Berlin University of the Arts and my experience in dealing with people of different age groups, I place particular emphasis on a relaxed, motivating and creative learning atmosphere.

Lessons can be held in German, English or Chinese.

Music production is one of the most exciting ways to create and express yourself musically. In my Ableton classes, I focus on helping students turn their ideas into finished tracks, while learning both the technical and creative sides of production.

I am a Sound Engineer and Music Producer, with a BA (Hons) in Creative Audio Production & Sound Engineering from Catalyst. I have professional experience working in recording studios and composing music for media projects, which I bring directly into my teaching.

Whether you are a complete beginner or already producing music, my lessons are fully personalised to your level and goals. We can work on:

• Ableton Live fundamentals
• Sound design and synthesis
• Beat making and arrangement
• Recording and editing audio
• Mixing basics and workflow
• Creative composition techniques

My aim is to make music production clear, practical, and enjoyable, helping you develop your own sound and complete your own tracks with confidence :)
