'Ondrej is excellent at setting the right goal posts for your level: challenging, but not so challenging as to be discouraging. He has a discerning eye and ear and knows how to direct his advice to see immediate results.' - Lauren (student)

One of the parts of teaching I most enjoy is the variety of my students’ backgrounds and finding an individual approach that works best for each student. I always do my best to create a supportive, stress-free environment so that the students can have a really fun time learning, while encouraging them to expand their capabilities at a pace that suits them best.

The possibilities open to a guitar player are as varied and vibrant as all of music itself. From campfire strumming to bebop improvisation, classical interpretation to amped-up rock, guitarists have access to a wide range of ways to express themselves, expand their physical and mental capabilities and simply have fun. This course will help you along your guitar journey.

I can teach from the ABRSM or Trinity classical or popular music syllabus for students seeking to pass exams, or create a personalised lesson plan for each student looking at various styles of classical, jazz, folk and popular music from outside of a formal syllabus. Building technical and theoretical skills as applied to the guitar will also form a core part of our lessons.

Embark on a transformative journey with our Voice Training for Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced class. Uncover the secrets to vocal mastery as you learn fundamental techniques in breath control, pitch modulation, and articulation. Cultivate a confident and expressive voice in a welcoming atmosphere tailored for beginners. Elevate your communication skills and unlock the full potential of your voice.

Becoming a confident musician is a skill that requires discipline, dedication and hard work. However I strongly believe that whether you wish to progress your skills on an instrument to a professional level, simply get the most out of playing In a band with friends or jamming along to your favourite playlists, the art of learning an instrument is an incredibly rewarding skill.

In our lessons we will focus on building a solid foundation across the basics of playing the Drum Kit. We will discover the rich and diverse history of the instrument and move through the jazz, funk, rock and pop era's of music. While I am happy to tailor all of these lessons to the student's needs, I do believe having a basic knowledge of where the instrument and it's vocabulary came from is essential and will have a positive impact on the students playing.

Listening is important! We will work through a number of landmark recordings that carve the path of the Drum Kit's evolution and continue the listening process all the way to your favourite songs and how the drums affect that music and the rest of the band! I am also happy to work through ABRSM, Trinity Guildhall and/or Rockschool exam grades.

Music is all about communication, and being able to fluently communicate ideas on any instrument requires time and practice. However, like with your very first English lessons in school, over time you can develop the skill of communication to a point where you can exchange many different ideas and create interesting conversations (this time between musical instruments rather than your friends in the pub!).

Although I understand music is a not a career for everyone, I strongly believe that learning how to play any instrument properly with discipline and good practice will enhance your life is more ways than anyone who doesn't play music will understand.

I specialise in advanced Classical and Jazz Piano, Composition and Arranging, as well as fundamentals of Theory of Music for students from ABRSM Grade 5 to Diploma level. I offer substantial discounts for families and for bundles of 5 or 10 lessons.

I have a well-equipped studio with a new grand piano as well as other keyboards and music tech gear, and teach both in-person for students living in Edinburgh, and online internationally. As many of my students are from Edinburgh university, where I also teach Orchestration and Screen Composition, daytime lessons can be flexible from week to week.

My classes are helpful to students seeking to pass the higher performance and theory grade examinations, as well as to university undergraduates seeking to fill knowledge gaps and to explore composition and orchestration in greater depth. Students I have taught invariably achieve excellent results, as high as 144/150 in recent ABRSM practical piano examinations, and as high as 100% in Theory of Music.

I also teach Music Technology, specialising in Cubase DAW as well as Sibelius and Dorico scorewriter applications.

I am currently available to teach both online and in the Edinburgh area to students of all ages.

I am a musician, pianist and vocalist with 10 years of music teaching experience. Over the years, I have helped students improve their music theory, find their voice, learn to sight read and pass countless ABRSM piano exams of all grades. I have studied both classical and contemporary vocals, and I have an MA in Music Composition.

I am an experienced piano and guitar teacher in Edinburgh with a high student success rate. I am happy to teach either online or face to face, and am able to provide all initial resources. I have full disclosure certificates, and references are available upon request

Let's make music together! 🎶

I am PVG checked and have undergone Level 1 & 2 ESTILL Vocal Training by a qualified Estill Vocal Master, therefore my teaching draws from - although not limited to - ESTILL philosophy. Lessons are about an hour long and can be delivered online or in person (in my home).

My lessons are for all levels and will benefit either beginners or more advanced singers who want to develop their vocal technique and better understand voice production. I teach a wide range of contemporary music styles - pop, rock, blues, jazz, R&B, soul.

In teaching, I always put the well-being of my students in the first place and will make sure our sessions are both productive and fun!

Each lesson will be individually tailored to your needs and preferences. You can choose the main areas you would like to focus on and I will adjust exercises according to your interests. If you feel unsure where to start, just drop me a message and I will help you establish your first steps to become a pro!

Some of the areas we can cover include:

- vocal technique
- vocal flexibility, agility, intonation
- vocal health for singers & speakers
- relaxation manoeuvres
- breath support & breath management
- live performance & microphone technique
- performance anxiety
- vocal anatomy
- music theory

The purpose of this course is to help students develop their musical sensibility as (classical) pianists. Whether it be online or in person-- though in person is preferred, as it makes teaching more engaging--, classes will consist of a play-through of a specific repertoire followed by advice on technique, interpretation and practice methods. The students can bring their own pieces to play or I can provide some myself, and the goal will be to ensure that this is played faithfully with respect to the score, but most importantly, musically, and in this way to rapidly but securely build repertoire.

My piano lessons are welcoming, supportive, and designed to make learning fun. I teach both children and adults, from complete beginners up to ABRSM Grade 3, focusing on building confidence, technique, and music reading (sight reading & music theory) skills.

Mistakes are always welcome in my lessons because they are part of learning. I encourage students to explore, experiment, and enjoy the process of making music without fear of getting things wrong. Lessons include a mix of practical playing, simple music theory, scales, and fun pieces tailored to each student’s pace and interests.

Whether you’re learning for exams or for personal enjoyment, my goal is to help you grow in skill, understanding, and confidence while discovering the joy of music 🎵
