Having recently obtained my masters degree in Music from the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I have been teaching piano, music theory and electroacoustic music for 8 years.

As a former student of the Conservatoire de Musique of Geneva and a music technology undergrad, I offer a tailored program to your needs and wishes. Be it classical jazz or pop music or music theory, composition and improvisation (or all of these!), I will gladly instruct you in a friendly and playful way.

Graduated with a master's degree in Music and Environment at the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I offer piano, music theory and electroacoustic music lessons for all ages.

Both classical piano training with years of study at the Geneva Conservatory and electroacoustic training with a bachelor's degree in music technology, I provide a program adapted to the needs and desires of each student. With seven years of experience under my belt and having had students of all ages and backgrounds, I gladly teach classical pieces, jazz, pop, but also music theory or even composition or improvisation. At the same time, I also teach electroacoustic composition to children.

We work the techniques, rhythmic styles and harmony typical of flamenco.
Once the pupil has acquired a certain mastery of the instrument, he can learn to accompany song and dance in order to complete his learning; let's say that the accompaniment of song and dance is what will allow the student to live a real experience of flamenco and thus feed on the ingredients necessary to learn and understand all the richness and complexity of this art.
The accompaniment of the song:
At first, we will study rhythmic formulas on precise chords, then in a second time, we will play these formulas with the singer (recorded on audio tracks). In order to make learning more lively, the student will be able to accompany the teacher who will sing certain styles and will be able to participate in monthly workshops to accompany song and dance with a singer, a dancer and other students.
The student can also film during the lesson to be able to work at home more efficiently.
Finally, distance learning courses are possible, via Whatsapp or Skype.

EVERY CHILD CAN! Learning to play the guitar according to the Suzuki method is more than just music! We learn by the approach of the "Mother Tongue", playing and having fun. Children - from the age of 3 - develop, among other things, listening, memory, musical sense, concentration, discipline, respect. Collective workshops stimulate learning, and children learn to play together.
The "Suzuki Triangle", teacher, parent, student, reinforces the parental-child bond. Parents learn with their child and participate in lessons.
Music theory is included in the lessons, in a fun way.
Professor graduated from the Conservatoire with honors, graduated from the Suzuki method in Turin.
Also available for adult classes!

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

Hi!

I am an accomplished classical pianist and experienced teacher who offers you piano lessons, at all levels from beginner to advanced, for fun or for serious ones (preparation for competitions, auditions, exams, etc.).

I am a doctoral candidate at the University of Montreal (Canada) and am also pursuing a second Master's degree at the HEM in Geneva. I also have another Master's degree from the first institution as well as a diploma in performance. My doctoral research focuses on the neuropsychology of music learning and its applications in performance.

I had the pleasure of playing with orchestras and as a soloist at festivals in Canada, Germany, Austria, Spain and Switzerland, as well as being the winner of several competitions and the recipient of numerous awards.

I have more than 15 years of experience as an interpreter and pedagogue (even at university level as a lecturer). I am very dedicated to my students and I offer you dynamic, personalized courses to meet the particular needs of each person.

Courses are available in Geneva, Lausanne, Gland, Nyon, Rolle, Coppet and other nearby cities.

Lessons are also available in English.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

See you soon, I hope!

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). 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.

Whether a complete beginner or a student preparing for competitions, my goal is to give each student the tools to achieve their own personal goals - and make music a positive influence in their life.

I aim to teach my students the skills necessary to be able to explore the guitar with independence and confidence, so that they can use their knowledge regardless of the style and repertoire they choose to play.

I strive to create a fun and motivating atmosphere in my classes, while providing the technical, theoretical and artistic tools necessary to progress quickly.

About me :

I obtained my bachelor's degree from the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance in 2022, my master's degree in musical performance from HEM Geneva in 2024, and I am currently pursuing a master's degree in pedagogy at HEM Geneva in Judicael Perroy's class.

Having played classical guitar since the age of 9, I regularly participate in concerts, masterclasses, and international competitions - where I have won several awards. I have years of experience teaching children and adults, both in Geneva and abroad.

Want to learn to play, (re)gain confidence, or simply make your favorite songs sound like they do on stage by the stove? I offer acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and bass lessons at home or via video.

What I propose:

A tailor-made course: we start with what you like. Your favorite songs guide the progression; I build technique and ear around your repertoire (rock, folk, chanson, blues, metal, funk, etc.).

All levels, all ages: from complete beginners to experienced musicians, in individual lessons, parent-child duos, or small groups.

Active and collective teaching: group playing (if there is a group), covers and creations, improvisation, preparation of small scenes (music festival, village festival), and recordings to keep track of your progress. This approach is at the heart of my teaching: work by covers, stage projects, creations and MAO support.

“Sound & studio” module (optional): discovery of effects, the sound chain, introduction to MAO / home studio (notably Ableton Live) to arrange, record and mix your tracks.

Concrete & practical: rhythm, right hand/plectrum, chords and inversions, riffs, vocal accompaniment, reading grids/tabs, setting up with metronome and backing tracks.

Who am I ?

Léopold, State-certified musician (DE) in Amplified Contemporary Music (guitar).

I taught at the Conservatoire in France for a few years

Teacher adept at active, creative and collective pedagogy, connected to the real practices of musicians; formative assessment and differentiated pedagogy according to profiles.

Artistic practice: rock/folk/experimentation/electronic, I participated in several musical projects which allowed me to have a good experience of the stage and the studio.

Because music doesn't require large venues or big facilities: a guitar, a quiet room, and the desire to play are all you need. Here, we cultivate authenticity, consistency, and the joy of playing—whether it's accompanying a local choir, hosting a drinks reception with friends, or putting together a small band for the village festival. And above all, we learn by doing: step by step, piece by piece, until it grooves.

If this speaks to you, write or call me—we'll tune the guitars, then we'll tune the lenses. See you soon!

We will cover targeted concepts and techniques to achieve your goals and adapted to the way you learn best. Sheet music, oral, visual, annotations or adapted scores are all tools that I keep at my disposal according to needs. Music theory can help some people, in certain forms and in measured doses, while others, on the contrary, do not need it. It does not take me much time to learn to understand you and from the first session I will have targeted one or more approaches that will suit you. I still have one rule at heart, and that is to always maintain musicality and take pleasure even when playing simple things or exercises. Learning should never become a chore and should be a pleasure just as much as enjoying a good level of playing.
