Jazz piano lessons and contemporary music (pop/soul/etc.)

From 32.15 £ /h

Hello, I offer jazz piano lessons and current music adapted to the needs and requests of the person.

Depending on the objectives and the level of the person, the work may focus on rhythm, work on the ear, harmony (chords, theory), improvisation (solos, having fun with chords, improvising a melody on chords), learning a piece (jazz standard or more recent piece).

Scores can be brought, even if I prefer to favor an oral approach for the lessons.

Finally, my classes do not follow a particular protocol. Course content will not be predefined in advance. Thus there will be no "work to do" or work imposed on the person. We can very well see a piece and the following week see something else.

The rhythm and desires of the student are therefore the priority. My role will be to help him as much as possible and to give him the necessary keys to achieve his personal goals.

Experienced teacher in private lessons for all ages, my goal is to deepen music and more particularly piano according to the student's tastes: classical, jazz, varieties... depending on the level. I pay particular attention to relaxing the wrist and arm and developing listening skills. The course is shared between musical training and piano, depending on the level of the student.
Regular work is essential to guarantee progress.

I have over 10 years of teaching experience, both privately and in schools, catering to students of all ages, from children to adults. As a friendly and enthusiastic instructor, my goal is to ensure that every student finds joy in creating music and can work towards their personal goals—whether it's for the sheer enjoyment of music-making or to prepare for music exams.

I'm also proficient in teaching music theory, which not only enhances musicianship but is also essential for students aspiring to reach higher levels in their musical journey.

I hold a Bachelor of Music and a Master's degree from two prestigious London music institutions: the Royal College of Music and the Royal Academy of Music. Since then, I've been actively performing as a soloist and collaborating with various orchestras and ensembles worldwide.

Everything will depend on what the student wants. I like to adapt to the request of the student according to his goals, needs and tastes, also to the age, to the needs of each person.
Music is an art where it takes time and patience, of course, also a pleasure above all.

Classes can also be given in Chinese or English, and last 45 mins or 1 hour as needed.

My teaching method is based on two points:

Orality and reading.
Indeed, music being a language, it is spoken and written.
It has a grammar, a conjugation, the aim of which is simply to be able to express oneself freely.

The many training courses I have followed, as well as my experience as a musician, allow me to offer teaching adapted to everyone and to all desires: Pop-Jazz or Classical music theory.

My journey :

I have been a music teacher for 14 years, and graduated in 2015 with a DEM in drums and music theory.

After giving a few private lessons here and there, it was in 2010 that I really started teaching, doing replacements in conservatories.
For 7 years, I have been working in a private school, L'École de Musique de Chatou, where I teach more than 40 students.

At the same time, I play for different projects, in electro, in jazz, but also for events.

Pianist for over 12 years, I help beginner and intermediate students to progress on the piano and enjoy playing their favorite pieces.

. Music styles:

- Pop/contemporary music (Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Imagine Dragons, Yiruma, Yann Tiersen, Ludovico Einaudi, etc.)
- Classical music (Bach, Chopin, Beethoven, etc.)
- Film music (La La Land, Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, etc.)
- French pop music (Francis Cabrel, Jean-Jacque Goldman, etc.)

. My teaching method:

- Beginner level: my work is based on the book "J'apprends le piano tout simplement" by Christophe Astié, a simple and progressive method for learning the basics of piano (reading sheet music, music theory, playing with two hands, chords, etc.). Once some basic skills have been acquired, we can begin to learn the pieces you wish for.

- Intermediate level: Instruction is personalized based on the pieces you wish to learn. I will guide you through reading sheet music, interpreting the piece, and improving your technique, while providing you with tailored theoretical knowledge. The goal is to enable you to play your favorite pieces with fluidity and confidence.

. Location: At home (Antony and surrounding areas - Nanterre and surrounding areas)

. Limited availability:
I still have a few slots available for Saturday afternoons and Sundays.

See you soon at the piano!

- My students' opinions - (translated in English)

"My daughter Louane (10 years old) has been taking piano lessons with Daniel for 8 months now, and the progress she's made is incredible. She really enjoys playing, and it shows in her motivation and consistency. What we particularly appreciate is Daniel's gentleness and kindness, as well as his teaching style, which is very child-friendly.
Louane can choose the pieces she likes, which makes her even more involved, and music theory is naturally integrated into the learning process. It's an approach that's both fun and effective. Thank you for your patience and your infectious passion!" - Nathalie C.

"Excellent teacher, excellent teaching style! My son has progressed much more this year than in previous years. Daniel is patient and adapts to his student's needs. I recommend him 100%." - François M.

"After playing the piano for 4 years and then stopping for 21, I decided to take piano lessons with Daniel since August 2024. I quickly noticed progress and I recommend him for his professionalism, kindness, and friendliness.
I also appreciate being able to choose the pieces I want to learn." - Marjolaine.

Hello! I offer tailor-made courses, which can take place at my home in Colombes or at your home (Paris and its surroundings).
I took private piano lessons for many years. I was able to play a wide variety of pieces: classical, jazz, pop, film scores... I also studied several other instruments. As a result, I developed a broad musical knowledge, an open mind, and an understanding of effective ways to progress and enjoy myself.

I can guide you in discovering the joys of the piano by taking you to the other side of the instrument. You just have to dare to take the first step!
It's not "too late" and you don't need any special skills to start playing the piano. You simply need the desire to learn and be willing to dedicate some time to the instrument; everything can be learned.

My method consists of giving you a solid and clear foundation so that you can enjoy yourself and gain independence as quickly as possible. I alternate exercises and pieces of increasing difficulty to help you progress effectively.

For example, you'll learn to read notes and sheet music, and I'll give you all the necessary tools to progress and enjoy yourself. I'm also attentive to your preferences; the course can be adapted to you and your tastes (for example, in the choice of exercises and pieces).

If you want to buy your first keyboard and don't yet know which one to buy, I can also guide you in your first purchase.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

See you soon, William

I am currently training at the conservatory, where I am working on composition, music theory and musical creation.

My background blends classical practice, contemporary music, and sound engineering. This diversity allows me to tailor lessons to each student, according to their desires, level, and sensibilities.

My approach to the piano is based on listening, the relationship to sound and musical expression. I am as interested in technique as I am in what it allows me to say and feel.

The courses are designed as a space for progressive learning, respectful of each individual's pace, particularly suited to adult beginners or those returning to the piano after a break.

I teach on acoustic or digital piano, and I adapt the content according to the musical tastes and objectives of the student.
