Music is a passion. Teaching is another. It is therefore my responsibility to share the first while satisfying the second. :)
TEACHING... it's a beautiful human adventure where we learn, where we instill, and even where we advocate things. In doing so, we cannot escape our musical and human values.
What does a very good teacher accomplish?
What qualities (musical and human) are necessary to make a teacher a very good teacher?
What is good progress?
What are the steps to remember when training a student's ear?
What are the steps not to be omitted in the transmission of rhythm?
How can we really help students read notes well?
How to develop virtuosity?
How to make a correct diagnosis?
What is the place of music theory, technical exercises, etc.?
These are a lot of interesting questions...
I will be very happy to help you and share the results of my research and my practice as a music training teacher, teacher. organ, and chamber music, whether on a specific point, or to develop an entire program.
I talk about what I know and what works with the students. If you want something that works in practice, then I've got you covered! This is what I am passionate about and what I like to share. On the other hand, I do not specifically prepare for teaching competitions. I also do not wish to lock myself into lunar discussions which have no practical outlets...
Looking forward to sharing with you,
FM

About Me
Music and teaching are my passion.
I am both a performer (organist) and a French Music Conservatory Professor.
I teach two subjects I love: Organ Performance and Formation Musicale (sort of a Musicianship or Ear Training course that would go up to a high graduate specialized level).
I have taught extensively, at all levels.
I pioneered live online musicianship lessons in France in 2011, and was since led to teach online in Europe, Asia, the U.S.A., and Madagascar.
I believe that the best qualification for a teaching individual is this: Being able to understand students and help them progress.
If you have a difficulty, nothing pleases me more than rising up to the challenge and helping you succeed.
My approach to teaching is not dogmatic, but rather pragmatic, empirical, and based on neurosciences when possible. I am not choosing methods or teaching tools because they are old or new, but I am choosing them (old and new) if they work for YOU.
So, I hope I will help fostering your progress soon!
Sincerely,
YOUR Prof.

Education
I have been trained in Europe and in the United States. I was awarded a Lurcy Scholarship (Fulbright-France partner) given annually to six French citizens for study in the United States.
A graduate of the Eastman School of Music at the University of Rochester with a Master of Music in organ performance and literature, I am also a graduate of the Nancy and Metz Conservatories, with degrees in musicianship (ear training), organ, harpsichord, and baroque chamber music performance.
I also won the First Prize in supérieur level at the 1996 "Concours International d'Orgue de Lorraine," president of the board of examiners: Marie-Claire Alain.

Beautiful Rhythm is both precise & expressive. For the musician, it needs to be clear in both the mind & the body.
Whether you are a beginner or a professional seeking help, I will be here for you.
I teach the theory of rhythm and its practice.
I can provide an all-encompassing progressive approach, or some training on a specific music piece (provided the piece really is at your level).
Basic rhythms, or complex rhythm found in music from the Renaissance to contemporary classical music... anything can be addressed.
Again, Rhythm needs to be clear in your mind and your body, therefore the lesson will be tailored around you and the score.
My students often tell me I am very patient.
I'd rather say I am understanding and straightforward.
Actually, please know that I am also demanding: While there is no difficulty that I cannot understand, (and I found it thrilling to find a solution when the student seems stuck) yet I am not interested in approximation.
If after reading this, you are still interested, please drop me a line!
I am here to share my passion with you!
Sincerely,
YOUR Prof.
PS: I use fixed DO solfège (French way), but if you don't that's okay!
All levels (from beginners to graduate students and professionals).
All ages.
Lessons last 45 minutes (at least).
When am I available? Please drop me a line and we will try and find a time for you.
