Certified recorder player offers recorder and music theory lessons

From 20 £ /h

I offer classes that are enjoyable in which the student learns without stress. I work to discover the strengths and weaknesses of the student to guide the classes. I think this way we both can easily achieve, the student and the teacher, a good experience in the classes. I consider myself a flexible person in my classes and capable of generating a good environment for the student to express their doubts and frustrations. Thus, I have the possibility to modify the teaching method and avoid creating a barrier between the student and the music

Extra information

My experience has been, above all, interpretive: in competitions or chamber and soloist concerts. However, I have needed a solid foundation of music theory (history, musical language, harmonic theory, etc.) to be able to develop my professional activity. After so many years of study and learning from different teachers, I think that music is generally taught in an outdated and unrewarding way. For me, memorizing is meaningless if there is no understanding first. Music is a language that needs to be understood: its signs, its structures and the logic that follows. Memorizing while you put it into practice on paper is much more effective and enjoyable. In addition, guided listening can be a good way to educate our ears. I hope you give me the opportunity to guide you towards understanding music. I hope we can work together for a while.

Hi! my lessons focus on building solid violin skills in a clear, supportive way. Students learn proper technique, posture, tone production, and music reading while developing good practice habits from the start. Lessons are structured but flexible, allowing each student to progress at a pace that makes sense for them.
I work with beginners and continuing students, tailoring each lesson to individual goals whether that’s improving technique, preparing for school orchestra, or simply learning to play with more confidence. The emphasis is on steady progress, consistency, and making the learning process approachable and rewarding.
Lessons include technical exercises, repertoire, and practical strategies students can use when practicing on their own.

These courses are primarily aimed at beginners or false beginners wishing to learn the violin on a solid foundation, in a progressive and motivating way.

Trained in classical and chamber music by a conservatory professor, I have developed an approach to the violin that is both rigorous and accessible, always keeping the pleasure of playing as the objective.

We work on the essential fundamentals: posture, bow hold, intonation, tone, and basic musicality. Emphasis is placed on a clear progression adapted to each student.

Each lesson is personalized according to your pace and objectives, whether it's to discover the instrument, consolidate the basics or evolve towards a more expressive style of playing.

Courses are available in French or English.

You can spend years learning one new piece after another and still remain at roughly the same level: reading note by note, struggling to see the connections within the music, and feeling helpless without a teacher. The repertoire changes, while the quality of playing, musical thinking and independence change very little.

I do not believe this should be the normal outcome of piano lessons.

The most valuable part of playing the piano is the feeling of genuinely owning the music: being able to enter its world, experience it fully and bring your own musical hearing to life at the instrument. My role as a teacher is to make the path from the score to that state as direct and natural as possible.

I teach music as a system and a language. Students learn to see the musical logic behind the notation: to understand harmony and form, follow the direction of a phrase, recognise style and character, and gradually become more fluent and independent musicians.

My teaching is rooted in the Russian academic piano tradition, but the repertoire can be classical, modern, film, anime or jazz-oriented. What matters is that the work remains serious, attentive and musically meaningful.

I work with motivated teenagers and adults, from beginners to advanced players.

With beginners, I aim to make score reading fluent and natural as early as possible while developing an understanding of how music works from the inside.

If a student already plays but feels stuck, I identify what is actually limiting further progress. Difficulties that seem separate are often connected, and I work with the underlying cause rather than treating each symptom in isolation.

After a long break, I help bring existing knowledge and skills back into active use, identify the genuine gaps and organise what remains into a working system from which the student can move forward.

With advanced students, the work can include mental practice and principles from Stanislavski’s system.

I am a concert pianist and piano educator with 23 years of teaching experience, from private work with students of different levels to university-level teaching at the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music.

I graduated with honours from the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music and later completed postgraduate studies there. For more than twenty years I performed in Russia and internationally across Europe, Asia and South America.

I received first prizes at the Salieri–Zinetti International Chamber Music Competition in Italy in 2010 and the Max Reger Chamber Music Competition in Germany in 2011, and recorded two albums for the Melodiya label.

Lessons are fully online and taught in English.

Hello! My name is Jade. I’m an undergraduate student and have been playing the piano for 15 years; I graduated from the Geneva Conservatory.

In my lessons, I focus on practice and improving technique. Although I have prepared lessons and pieces, I give my students a great deal of freedom in choosing their sheet music, the intensity of their lessons, and the type of instruction they need. I see the piano as a passion and, above all, an art form which, as such, shouldn’t become a source of stress or frustration. We’ll make progress through small successes and can explore a variety of genres, from classical music to songs, pop, and even film scores.

My priorities are for students to learn the notes and develop the ability to read sheet music easily, as well as rhythm and interpretation.
We can complement this approach with training in musical ear and singing, as well as the basics of music analysis.

I’d be happy to welcome you to my studio in De Pijp or can come to your home.

I look forward to meeting you!
