Cello or piano lessons for all ages and all levels.

Music improves so many factors of life. it builds our desire to be patient and driven, and grows the beautiful creative sides of our minds and hearts. To many, it is a desired field of excellence in which they want to create careers, and for others it serves as an escape to be free.

I love teaching and showing intrigued and motivated learners more about the musical world and am glad to help explore the technical and musical factors of music in cello playing, piano playing and the deeper meanings of the music we love. The class is about you, what you want to become qs a musician, if you want to learn a new intrument, or just improve your playing! I will be glad to help and teach as much as I can.

About Me

I believe in teaching a person how to teach themselves, because in all honesty, we are all our own best teachers. So I di my best to teach through kindness and motivation, and have no time for becoming a dictator of how to play music. Music is for us all to enjoy and therefore it is vitally important to me to teach in a way that I can give you the drive and excitement of music, more than just the technical means of playing an instrument. I firmly believe that learning music is a path to discovering our optimal selves. This is a way that we discover our limits and express ourselves freely. How to do this, is what I teach.

Education

I am studying at the Hochschule für Musik Bremen, and was also a studnet at Helpmekaar Kollege in South Africa. GPA of 4.08. I had private lessons with the Orinciple Cellist of JPO and masterclasses with world renowned musicians such as Benjamin Zander, Maria Kliegel, Gary Hoffman and recently studied under Alexander Baillie.

Experience / Qualifications

I have won the National Eistedfodd Academy Competition, the Yamaha Music Competition in Johannesburg, The Philip H Moore competition and have received honouree rewards in the Nationa UnISA and Young Musicians Competitions. I have a Grade 8 and higher qualification in cello and a corresponding theory grade.

Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)
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.

Piano lessons for all levels and ages. Relaxed teaching approach!
I have over 12 years of teaching experience and I have been working as a Professional Pianist for 7 years now, in 8 different countries (Switzerland, Austria, Iceland, Spain etc.) and on Luxury Cruise Ships (Worldwide). I can show you how to have fun with the piano. If you're a beginner, I can take you right from step one and have you playing familiar songs by the 1st or 2nd lesson. If you already have some experience, I can add to it. My main goal is helping you achieving your goals and preparing the best lesson for you! I've been playing and studying piano since age 6 (over 25 years ago). I began with classical music, and later added Ragtime, Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock, and Chord theory. I earned a Bachelor Degree in Piano Performance, Classical Music (4 years). I have participated in numerous Piano Masterclasses in Europe and I studied with great pianists. I still learn from different Highly Accomplished Musicians, I believe learning never stops. I have much to share with my students. TEACHING STYLE I am a very patient teacher. I love teaching all ages. I don't teach everyone the same way. I tailor lessons according to individual goals and needs. I insist on the importance of technique and musicality. I also guide all my students even outside of the teaching time, by responding to all their questions (music theory or technical) and sending them videos. I teach how to prevent Piano Injuries by focusing on proper technique, posture, and practice habits. My professional experience includes coaching students of all levels and ages. I successfully prepared the students with their Piano Exams like ABRSM, Trinity Grade, from grade 1-8, with merits and distinctions, and more advanced exams as well (Performance Diplomas). I teach for the Enjoyment of Music as well. I believe you can learn to play the piano at any age. My oldest student is over 75 years old and my youngest one has 3 years old. They made great progress, I am sure you could do the same. I've never met anyone who didn't have musical abilities! You can be a serious or a recreational player. The only requirement is the willingness to spend some time at the piano. I conduct my lessons using a combination of 4 cameras for optimum visibility, and a quality microphone which my students find very helpful. This allows them to see a very clear visual demonstration alongside my verbal explanation. I can confidently say that Online Lessons are the same as In-Person Lessons. CURRICULUM I do not believe one method works for all students. I have used many different lesson books and resources over the years. For beginners I like to use Alfred method books for basics concepts and for Classical and Jazz Piano technique I like to use ABRSM books (grade 1-8). If my student feels that they can learn better from another books, I am glad to adapt my teaching strategies to their needs. Along with the lesson books below, I use a lot of supplemental materials based on the students' interests. I also aim to teach their favorite songs as soon as possible. I like to clearly explain and demonstrate piano technique. In this way, the students are able to apply the information on similar passages from all genres of music. Piano/Keyboard - Alfred , Hal Leonard, Abrsm Grade (1-8), Trinity Grade (1-8), Hanon etc.

Katie

If you want to learn to play the cello or improve your skills do not hesitate to write me!

In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Carnatic vocal music classes for beginners and kids
I'm Priyadhrashini .I've been taking carnatic Vocal veena and violin classes for students through online and offline. Started learning Carnatic music at the age of 6.I have performed in various programmes in South India. Have been teaching carnatic music for past 12 years. I believe there is no restriction on age to learn music. I'm taking both Practical and theory in the session. VOCAL : The basic level of training will start from the basic terminology and fundamentals of music with foundation exercise which also includes methods to produce a good voice, right sitting posture, tips to increase the vocal range, Pitch correction, grip over talams . In Advanced level training on vocal and veena, it covers varanam on different ragas and talams along with command over gamakas to approach the Raagas easily. I explored so many easy methodologies to understand the concept and technique of music, which help the student to adapt it accordingly.
