I like to transmit music to adults and children who have never practiced or wanting to get back to the piano.
Adaptation of works according to the tastes and level of each.

With my courses you will know in a few weeks / months:
- Read a score (learning notes and rhythm gradually)
- Play songs (to immediately put the theory into practice)
- Recognize all the chords (and know how to have fun without a score too!)
- Understand musical language (to learn faster and retain longer)
- Interpret a work
- Improvise (you'll see it's very easy when you understand the music!)
* Music theory is learned as the pieces are deciphered to leave plenty of room for practice.

This is how a regular course works:
- 10 minutes of music theory (it's necessary but don't worry, I'll make it interesting for you)
- 10 minutes of technique (just to show off in front of the family and / or friends / girlfriends)
- 40 minutes of practice of a piece (because it is the best way to learn while having fun).

In any case, you will benefit with me from a framework to really advance on the piano and measure your progress, as well as a benevolence and encouragement to keep your motivation intact!

Professional musician and certified music teacher (CAPES), I offer private piano lessons for all ages and all styles (variety, classical, jazz, pop) in my home studio (fully equipped).

Teacher in different contexts (college, FAC, music school, at home) and facilitator for years (BAFA), I am used to teaching a different audience: young, older, difficult audiences, musicians or not. .

We can learn to read a score for the more ambitious, discover American chords to move towards jazz or pop, learn to improvise and understand the relationships between each scale to be able to master our instrument as much as possible.

The course takes place in joy and good humor while trying to always give your best to progress!

It is a class focused on developing the skills with the guitar and also with singing if the student wants to.
Where we will cover the technique with the instrument learning to play the songs chosen by the student, that way you can learn the songs you love the most. For the experienced students we can start composing.
Instead of just playing boring technical exercises, from beginner to advanced you will learn all the basics and most important I will teach you the tools to identify any chord on the guitar, you can play and sing at the same time and learn any song you want from the chords.

For all ages, all styles, all levels, play the piano with pleasure and at your own pace. It is possible to play classical, neo-classical, pop, rock, swing, or any other style desired.
For beginners, teaching the fundamentals of music theory is possible, in a fun way, with the aim of being able to read the chosen score.
My methodology is the same as the one I use in my work: listening, support, sharing, communication, kindness, adaptability.
What matters most is the desire and the pleasure of making music.

About me:
Passionate about music, piano and singing, I have been playing the piano since I was 6 years old. A former student of the Lyon Conservatory and musicology, I still practice music daily, particularly in duos or trios with two guitarists, and also in a group singing collectively.
During my early years, I taught children and adults, both beginners and intermediate. From this came the desire to transmit, to share, to listen to the desires and needs of each apprentice pianist.
For several months now, I have taken up this vocation again, at home with my own upright piano, as well as at the students' homes.

My work as a fashion stylist has also allowed me to support around a hundred interns, freelancers or employees, aged 13 to 30 and to strengthen my adaptability and inclusive communication. A teaching training in London to consolidate this knowledge.

Hello! I am Antoine, a pianist in the final year of studies at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de la ville de Lyon (CRR). Having played the piano for over 15 years, my lessons are designed for:

- Give you the keys to piano technique to enable you to play the music you love.
- Teach you how to read a grid and develop your improvisation vocabulary, while developing your musical ear.
- Music theory and harmony lessons, from basics to more advanced techniques, with concrete examples.
- Learn to accompany singers on the piano.

Together, we will set a repertoire of pieces that you like. I write the scores for my students and I can offer personalized exercises according to the technical difficulties encountered. I teach all types of music (classical, jazz and contemporary music) with extensive experience in jazz and improvised music.
If you are interested, you can contact me by private message.

See you soon!
Antoine

A graduate of the CNSM de Lyon with a Master's degree, I am a professional cellist with extensive orchestral and teaching experience. I currently serve as a substitute at the Orchestre National de Lyon, the Opéra de Lyon, and the Orchestre de Chambre de Lyon since 2023. I also had the honor of performing as a performer at the 28th Concert des Victoires de la Musique Classique.

As a cello teacher at the Midosi music school in Saint-Didier-au-Mont-d'Or, I teach students of all ages and levels.

I offer cello (and piano) lessons for all ages and levels, in a relaxed atmosphere. The material is tailored to each student's needs and goals.

I offer personalized transverse flute and/or music theory lessons for students of all ages, from beginner to 2nd cycle. I suggest starting with the flute method of Arlette Biget and Claude-Henry Joubert. Once the basics are acquired, I suggest relying on "le petit flûté" then "le voyage du petit flûté" which contain CDs with models and accompaniment tracks. I provide photocopies for working on technique and music theory. If the student wants to play a particular piece, I can make a suitable arrangement. I can also accompany the student on the keyboard if there is one at your home, playing with an accompanist is beneficial for the student to develop their listening, their mastery of tempo and accuracy.

I have 12 years of experience playing the transverse flute and am currently a student in a preparatory course for higher education in transverse flute, musical training and writing at the Conservatoire à rayonnement régional de Lyon. I am also in the process of taking the BAFA. I obtained my degree in musicology at Lyon 2 in 2024-25, as well as my CEM in flute (certificate of musical studies, at the end of the 3rd cycle). I have also completed internships with FM and piano teachers.

As a private teacher, I believe it is crucial to listen to the student's specific requests, desires, and needs, so that I can support them and help them develop in their own way. I know how to be patient because we do not all learn at the same pace. I seek to stimulate the student's curiosity and help broaden their horizons and culture. I want to build a relationship of trust with the student and encourage them to actively invest in their learning. Finally, I strive to transmit and maintain the joy that music brings.

I am a student at the Lyon Regional Conservatory and have already completed my studies at the Bratislava Conservatory (Slovakia). I studied sacred music, so I studied organ, conducting, singing, Gregorian chant, improvisation and musical training in general, etc.
I offer lessons in piano, organ, theory, Gregorian chant or elementary improvisation.
My French isn't ideal, so I prefer to use English, but we can agree.
I can't wait to spend time together!

Hello! 🎹

I offer private piano lessons in contemporary, jazz, and pop music styles. A graduate of the DEM Jazz program at the Lyon Conservatory, I taught piano in music schools for seven years. I also have classical piano training at the conservatory, having started playing the piano at the age of five.

I offer a course tailored to the student's tastes and level, but I'm mainly looking for students who already know how to play the piano a little. I don't necessarily practice music theory, or I incorporate it into the practice if necessary.

Don't hesitate if you have any questions ☺️
Hope to meet you,
See you soon !

Thierry - Music lessons at home

I give guitar/music lessons at home or via video call.

Having earned a Vocational Diploma in Music Professions, I now express my love for music through teaching.

I propose, with the help of suitable course materials, to help you progress in playing the instrument, so that you can play your favorite songs.

I primarily work in Lyon 1, Lyon 4, but also in Lyon 6, Lyon 9, part of Lyon 5 and Lyon 3.

I invite you to get in touch with me so that we can arrange a first lesson.

Have a good day,

Thierry

My teaching method is very hands-on, focused on the joy of playing the piano. I adapt completely to each student I have in front of me. Most people simply want to have fun because music is first and foremost a game, which is why the most important thing for me is to listen to students and understand what they truly want to achieve. I offer valuable advice to make playing the piano more enjoyable and to foster maximum independence, particularly with regard to pop/variety music (keys to understanding harmony, tips and tricks to easily improve performance, etc.).
