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.

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.

I graduated Moscow P. I. Tchaikovsky Conservatory and Haute école de Musique de Genève - HEM as a clarinetist. During my studies, I was laureate of several international competitions. Teaching is my second passion. I'm working as a teacher for more than 8 years. If you all the time was dreaming to study clarinet or block flute, if you would like to improve your playing, do not hesitate to contact me.

Everyone has a voice, what a great opportunity to tame it! I will be happy to accompany you on this path.
Music theory can often be scary and seem boring, yet it is a real game, it allows the discovery of a new language :)
Music can embellish life from an early age;)

Currently a master's student in singing performance after a master's degree in pedagogy and a double DE in singing and musical training, I have been made aware of issues of differentiated pedagogy.

You will learn how to discover the piano keyboard, the sound, how to produce it, how to improve it and look for a beautiful timbre. You will discover a whole series of practical and simple exercises which will allow you to familiarize yourself with this new instrument.
Then come a large number of composers. They are very old, modern, happy, nostalgic: here it is their music which will speak to you directly and thanks to it, a world will open up to you, speak to you but also allow you to express yourself in this new language that is: MUSIC!

My lessons adapt to everyone's expectations and pace. It is characteristic of private lessons that can really be as close as possible to the students, without the pressure linked to institutions such as music schools.
When possible, students can play in groups, sometimes I even organize a small orchestra with all those who are interested. Two hearings on average per year allow you to meet and give a purpose to the work.

Has your child ever told you that he/she wanted to try out the accordion, but are you not sure yet whether it is really an instrument that he/she will like? I'll teach your child the basics of the instrument, teach them a few easy songs and some music theory if necessary, to help them find out if they would be interested in taking on more professional lessons. With more than 3 years of teaching experience, I believe that I can make my lessons both interesting and useful, and above all, they need to fun. Don't hesitate to contact me in case you would like some additional information.

The electric bass is a wonderful musical instrument serving as a rhythmic and harmonic support for a group.
It doesn't matter if you are a beginner, advanced musician or just want to discuss musical concepts (advanced or not) and their practical application, my course is structured to hold account of your wishes and desires to allow you to reveal your full potential in a multitude of styles while studying in detail the playing techniques associated with it. Purely theoretical courses are also possible.

Student in the second year of a master's degree at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève, I offer piano lessons for all levels.

From beginners to advanced students, I adapt my pedagogy according to the student and his needs, so that he progresses without stress and at his own pace.

I am used to giving lessons to all types of students, and know in particular, thanks to my own experience, to teach students with motor and/or coordination disorders.

Finally, I promise that the piano (and music theory!) will remain a pleasure that retains all its fun, and does not become a chore!

My piano lessons are aimed at beginners as well as more experienced students. We will start by defining together what your objectives are in order to find a learning pace that suits you. I offer a global approach to the piano combining technique, interpretation of pieces of varied styles and improvisation/music theory. A course is generally structured as follows:

1. 5 to 10 minutes of technical work.

The development of effective gestures is essential in order to fully express one's musical potential. I offer progressive exercises allowing you to acquire the basics of piano technique (finger independence, velocity, hand coordination, arm mobility, posture, etc.). For young students, this work takes the form of keyboard games. Just like a sport, playing an instrument is a challenge for the body: I ensure that the student adopts a good posture on the instrument, in order to play with control and to avoid tension and injuries linked to an inattentive practice.

2. Interpretation.

I propose strategies for structuring the learning of a piece, in order to optimize the time spent working on the piano and to make the student autonomous in their practice. My training at the conservatory allows me to introduce you to the styles of different eras of classical music, from baroque to the present day. I am also open to other musical universes, and the choice of pieces is primarily based on your tastes and desires.

For the youngest students, I offer a suitable repertoire (arrangements of classical pieces, film music, video games, anime, songs), as well as simplified scores for a gradual introduction to reading. In order to cultivate motivation, it is important that students play music that speaks to them and that they are not discouraged by music theory.

3. Improvisation and music theory.

For students who are beginners or have never done music theory, I teach the necessary theoretical bases (orientating themselves on the keyboard, reading a score, rhythm, listening), often in the form of improvisation games. In addition to developing a personal connection with the instrument, improvisation also allows you to assimilate notions of harmony/counterpoint (scales, intervals, chords) through practice, and to understand little by little how music is constructed. To make the link with the repertoire being worked on in class, I often suggest taking an element of a piece as a starting point for improvising.

Of course, nothing obliges us to follow a particular plan, and if you come with a particular desire or a specific objective, I will try to meet your expectations as best as possible. I look forward to reading you, and sharing some beautiful moments of music together.

This course is intended for people wanting to start playing drums. The goal is to introduce people to the instrument and to have fun. Although the basics (drums and music theory) are generic, the rest of the teaching adapts to the student's goals.
For children, parents are welcome to attend the class!

I have been immersed in music, and particularly the piano, for over 40 years. I was trained by concert professors, who were themselves trained by the greatest (my own professor's piano teacher was taught by Alfred Cortot). I learned music theory at the Conservatoire and harmony and counterpoint at the HEM in Geneva. At the same time, I have a Bachelor's degree in Musicology from the Université des Lettres de Genève. This allows me not only to teach the essential basics of music to students, but also to place each style and each composer in its historical context. This greatly facilitates learning.

I teach all types of music, from classical to modern pop, including film music and more recent composers like Ludovico Einaudi. My goal is to give the student a good harmonic foundation and a good musical ear so that they can be independent in what they want to play and always have the pleasure of sitting down at the piano!
My classes are aimed at beginners of all ages (children or adults) with no musical knowledge, as well as advanced students or those who want to prepare for theoretical or practical exams. The scores will always be chosen in agreement with the student, according to their objectives and desired progress, mixing all musical styles (classical, pop, film music, etc.) so that they always have fun playing their instrument. Each student is unique, which is why each lesson is prepared individually to meet their aspirations or objectives. It is very important to me that the course takes place in a kind and sharing atmosphere, with discussion.

For children, I can conduct regular interviews with parents in person or by phone (after each lesson if necessary) to report on the progress made and the achievement of desired objectives. I am very flexible regarding the wishes of each student and therefore adapt easily to any situation. The strong points of the lessons:
• In all styles (classical, contemporary, modern hits, film music)
• All levels, courses in French • Possibility of courses or additional courses in English or Russian if necessary
• All ages (for children under 6 years old, lessons of 15-20 minutes maximum with adapted price)
• Organization of recitals in the presence of parents and the public in a friendly atmosphere
• Kindness
• Adaptation to each student, definition of objectives individually
• The student can choose certain pieces that he would like to play
• Improvisation: learning improvisation techniques so that the student can play pieces on the piano naturally and without sheet music.
• For children: regular interviews with parents in person or by telephone (after each lesson if necessary) to report on progress made and achievement of desired objectives
• Discount from the 2nd student per family
• Listening to each student
• Always in kindness and benevolence
• Theory and practice are taught in parallel so that the student always enjoys everything they do. Possibility of taking the two separately (either piano or music theory)
• Share my passion for music
• Patience
• Piano 4 hands
• Canton of Geneva – free travel

Graduate of the Geneva University of Music, with over 20 years of experience teaching piano, teaches children and adults of all levels.

Hello,
Welcome to my world!
My name is Laurence. I have been playing the piano since I was 5 years old and I have been teaching it for over 20 years. I have experience teaching children from the age of 5 and adults of all levels.

A graduate of the conservatories of Aix-en-Provence (DEM) and Montpellier (DEM) in France, I completed my studies at the Geneva University of Music, where I earned a Master of Arts in piano pedagogy. Alongside my musical pursuits, I am an avid dancer and have participated in numerous international partner dance competitions. I organize many auditions for my students, as well as dance and piano performances.

I am dynamic, caring, but also demanding and a perfectionist. I will not only be your teacher or your child's teacher, but also a coach, to motivate you, challenge you, help you push your limits, manage your emotions, and overcome your fears. You will learn patience and perseverance. You will also develop body awareness in space through posture work.

Come and develop your unique artistic potential. Music is not just an art, it's a life lesson.

Hello! My name is Cristóbal, a Spanish flautist passionate about music and teaching it.

I offer flute, piccolo and traverso lessons for all levels. I particularly enjoy guiding each student on their musical journey, adapting to their needs and goals.

I have had the opportunity to work with students of all ages (from 5 to 68) and all levels, from beginners to those preparing for conservatory entrance exams. I have taught in music schools as well as privately in Spain, France, and Switzerland.

This diversity of experience allows me to easily adapt to each student and to offer personalized support, according to their objectives, level and learning pace.

After completing my Bachelor's degree in Zaragoza, Spain, I continued my studies at the Strasbourg Conservatory in Raquel Magalhães' class, where I was awarded a distinction. I then obtained a Master's degree in Performance from the Geneva University of Music in Jacques Zoon's class.

Currently, I am pursuing a Master's degree in traverso with Johanna Bartz, as well as a Master's degree in piccolo at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp with Peter Verhoyen.

This dual specialization allows me to approach the flute family in its stylistic richness, from the modern repertoire to the baroque.
