About Me

I began tutoring as soon as I left school and it has been something which I have carried with me throughout my entire university life, from my time at Trinity College of Music studying classical piano performance, to my Liberal Arts and Sciences degrees - a total of 7 years. I quickly developed a passion for it as I realised my natural ability for interpersonal connection and for distilling complex information into concise, accessible explanations. I have been able to ensure a consistently positive experience for students ranging from the ages of 4 to over 60, and each new student I am able to help solidifies my commitment to teaching all the more.

When it comes to teaching piano, I bring to bear my classical training to ensure rigorous technical exercises, tempered with music theory or play-by-ear practice depending on the individual students' strengths and goals. As a composer with experience in jazz, I have tools for transforming music theory knowledge into compositional and improvisational ability, should the student want to explore these avenues.

The rest of my tutoring focuses on languages, namely English and Italian. When teaching these as school subjects, I bring to bear my techniques for literary analysis and my experience in breaking down complex texts to ensure students can work effectively. When teaching them as foreign languages instead, I tailor my lessons to whatever the individual goals of the students are. I am proficient in teaching both grammar and language skills, and I have had students ranging from A1 to B1 in Italian, and A2 to C1 in English.

Learn English with me, Lorenzo, a native English speaker from London with over 6 years English teaching experience and a CELTA qualification. I have had students of ages ranging from 10 to 70, and of levels ranging from A2 to C1, as well as native speakers taking English as a school subject. I also offer specialised English classes: business English, academic English, English for diplomacy, and English for psychology.

I attended an international school speaking Italian (bi-lingual proficiency) and French (B2) alongside English. Furthermore, I studied in Freiburg, Germany, and still teach many German students through Freiburg’s Carl-Schurz Haus German-American Institute. My familiarity with these languages allows me to offer explanations and translations tailored to the needs of my students.

In the lessons, we will be focusing on setting or developing all the required skills for the students to be able to perform independently, understand the musical language, and explore their own sound. Focusing on posture, hand coordination, rhythm, ear training, reading scores, and improvisation. So far my musical exposure in many different genres allows me to create a lesson that is adapted to the specific needs of my students. I have garnered the patience and belief in the idea that anyone can become a part of the music world with the proper amount of attention and guidance.

My name is Sofija and I am a pianist currently studying at Conservatorium Maastricht.

I believe that music helps us to develop skills and qualities such as patience, accuracy and sensitivity that we all need in our daily life. It can be also a great way to connect to other people or to yourself.

In the lessons we will focus on your needs and wishes both if you are a beginner or an advanced player. My goal would be to make a beginner feel comfortable with features such as good orientation in the scores and on the keyboard, musical and rhythmical playing, basic technical skills and knowledge of musical terminology. With an advanced player we will further develop their own interpretation and musical ideas.

Lessons can be taught in English, Czech or Russian.

I'm excited to share my experience with you and be creative together!

Saxophone lessons:

Mathias' lessons are for both beginners and advanced students. The lessons are based on the student's desire to learn and be inspired, and it is important for him to be able to help develop and stimulate this desire.

Selected focus points in the lessons are:
- Sound and equality
Focus on uniform quality throughout the register and feeling that you have control and decide for yourself over the instrument.

- Ear training
Particularly the ability to perceive, retain and reproduce musical structures. This is trained with Mathias through simple and effective principles.

In Mathias' lessons, you are provided with various exercises that strengthen embouchure, breathing technique and your understanding of harmony and improvisation.

He places great emphasis on the fact that the student is not in an exam, but in a work process, and that the student's wishes and motivation are at the center.

Especially for beginners
For the first lesson, Mathias provides a saxophone. Write a non-binding message to Mathias if you are interested or have any questions.

About Mathias:
He is very passionate about creating music in all sorts of settings and about playing and teaching saxophone 🎷 He finished his studies at Conservatorium Maastricht last year.
