About Me

PIANO CLASSES

I started piano at a very early age, and the path has not been a quiet one!
I know the challenges and struggles that come with learning and practicing piano, and having pushed through it out of passion I am now comfortable supporting those embarking upon that journey themselves.
I trained with a very diverse range of teachers, private locals, Conservatoire teachers, groups and ensembles, and I know from experience that there is no unique way to learn the piano.
Piano is an inexhaustible discipline for personal development, especially for children, and I am passionate about making people realise it!
I have experience teaching young and adult beginners, and that proved to be an experience I truly enjoyed sharing.
Any age is good to start - taking up something new is a wonderfully exciting moment full of possibilities, so get in touch!:)

FRENCH CLASSES

I am a native French speaker, born, raised and educated in French. I am a holder of a Swiss Baccalaureate, and I have informal experience with language support, for both learning children and adults.
All the books in the world could not grant you a sufficient grip of a language, and I believe, from my own experience with English, that conversations and exchanges are the best way to improve.
I am obviously more than happy to support with bookwork, homework, vocabulary, and grammar.
