In this violin course you will learn a foundation in learning one of the most rewarding instruments in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Grip the bow, hold the violin, have the perfect hand position and enjoy playing the strings while learning how to read the notes, the violin rhythm and technique.

Students will generally learn better if they feel a connection developing with their teacher, whether that’s through humour, showing care about their development, or making sure teacher devote time equally to all students when in a group.

You will not regret. 😊

Hello,

I like to transmit and exchange with my students.
Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me.

My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice.
I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory").
I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method.

All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

Learning music, is directly connected to the cognition system of our mind, and our cognition is the first step to perceiving the music, so it is essential to understand music and perform it.
I am proposing classes in Piano, Composition, and Music Theory and writings.
In the class of Piano depending on the student's wishes, we work on different methods, from learning music just as an activity to students who wish to continue their profession as a musician.
The class of composition has the same algorithm as the piano class, the method selection is based on the student's wishes.
Music Theory is proposed in both classes of composition and piano on the side but for the students who wish to learn music theory separately with more concentration, I offer this class as a separate class too.
Class of Harmony and Writing actually has the same situation as music theory classes but students in the course of composition will be more specialized in harmony and counterpoint than piano students and of course, this course is proposed as a separate class too.

All levels, all styles of music
Men / Women / Children

“90% of my students are able to play up to 100 songs after the first lesson.”

Drumming should be a fun experience. No time wasted trying to learn music theory or reading. We get straight to the point, playing music the way we want to. We'll get past the beginner level in just 2 or 3 lessons, then move on to more advanced things.

The lessons are designed to connect as much as possible with music and passion, and thus be able to express it creatively through the instrument. The courses are intended for everyone, including beginners and children.

BEGINNERS:
Intuitive and musical approach to the instrument
Essential Rhythms of Popular Music
Basic techniques and autonomy
repertoire

ADVANCED:
rudiments and their application
Advanced independence
Work on grooves of different styles: Jazz, Soul, Funk, Blues, Latin Improvisation
Understanding the harmony of music and other instruments Repertoire
Other advanced concepts
How to work professionally

We will seek creativity and enjoyment through music, to connect in the most inspiring and musical way. All of this creates a solid foundation for playing the instrument and routines that work on concentration, technique, and, above all, creativity.
The lessons take place in a music studio. There is also the possibility of giving lessons at the student's home.

I am a young professional Brazilian cellist, with 9 years of study and profession, I have lived in Paris for a few months, and have several students from a wide range of ages and skill levels.
I graduated from the University of São Paulo, I specialize in baroque music in Paris and I work with several renowned ensembles of early European music. I also play modern music, with my solo cello and electronic music project, I had the chance to participate in the biggest Brazilian festivals, such as the Festival "Campos do Jordão" in 2018, 2019 and 2022.

I offer cello lessons for all levels and all styles (classical cello, baroque cello and modern cello), with the possibility of following the lessons at home, by webcam or at home, in English, French, Portuguese.

I apply different methods of technique depending on each student and his or her projects and objectives. From Suzuki to the standard methods to pure technique applied to the repertory directly, I utilise elements from the french, American and german schools of cello playing.

I also allow for group work, and the possibility of playing with friends or colleagues, so I often suggest creating small ensembles to share and learn good music with others.

My teaching/
I give my lessons in such a way as to appreciate the quality of each student, to work on pleasant pieces, adapted to their level and their tastes, to discover a new repertoire in order to allow them to play pieces by highlighting French classical musicians such as Debussy, Ravel, Fauré, Satie, Séverac, Poulenc....

Discover less classical music (dodecaphonic, minimalism, neo-classical, variety, jazz).
I am driven by a desire to share and I accompany my lessons with an introduction to each work that is both scholarly and playful.

This welcome contextualization for students often far removed from classical music is likely to facilitate accessibility to the great piano repertoire.

I stand out for my human qualities: adaptability, listening, respect for differences, curiosity about the Other and others in a context of great cultural and social otherness.

Marie-Anne, Tax Lawyer “It was wonderful”

Ludmilla. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your art and passion! It was wonderful. Ludmilla, truly, "I have rarely met someone so passionate about their art." And truly thank you for the generosity with which you shared with me the richness of the pieces you worked on!! It's so powerful.
Pentecost, Paris, piano course, 3 intensive days in Paris, 3 days of sharing and enthusiasm.

-Ludmilla is not only a talented pianist but also an outstanding teacher.
She possesses all the qualities: patience, clarity, liveliness of mind; moreover she goes to the bottom of things: everything is worked with great attention to detail and musicality. It is truly a great privilege to be directed by her in piano work. Catherine

- Ludmilla is an incredible teacher, with a great teaching style. Her working method helps you progress a lot. Maud

-Coming to the piano late and not having access to the academic teaching of the French conservatories which stubbornly close their doors to adults who come knocking at their doors; I decided to boost my meager baggage with a piano course, a course organized by Ludmilla international pianist. On the program: preparation of the pieces; work on the pieces with Ludmilla, proposal of work for 4 hands; proposal of improvisation on the piano. Ludmilla is an excellent teacher by her requirement in addition to a precise organization on the course; great attention, precious advice on technique, rhythm, musicality, interpretation but above all a teaching with a lot of kindness and sensitivity, and what does not spoil anything, a lot of humor. Ludmilla knew how to put herself at my level, me beginner pianist student. She knew how to give me keys to follow my pianistic path while very generously sharing her musical universe. I thank her very warmly and I advise amateur and professional students to follow her excellent teaching method. Anne France

- Huge thanks for your very rich lessons, Ludmilla. Thank you for your patience and your investment in illuminating my score and helping me better understand these magnificent works. I really appreciated it. Sorry I wasn't able to put this into practice at the audition, but with work and attention paid to each phrase, it should gradually improve. Laure

-Ludmilla. Thank you with all my heart for sharing your lessons. It's fabulous. Ludmilla, I have rarely met a person, an international artist so passionate about their art. And really thank you for the generosity with which you have sent me the pieces you have worked on!! It's so powerful. Véronique

- Inspiring, Ludmilla is a concert pianist and teacher who is clearly part of the elite in the professional piano field. Her methodological approach (intelligence of fingerings, work on different voices, diversity of repertoire, etc.) allows rapid progress in learning works and overcoming all the difficulties encountered (techniques, interpretation, etc.). This in-depth work allows you to keep the pieces in your repertoire for a long time, to gain confidence and to ensure beautiful performances in public (auditions, concerts, competitions, etc.). I warmly recommend Ludmilla to all pianists, whether amateurs, students or professionals. Christian

- Ludmilla has great teaching skills and I have made enormous progress with this teacher who has won several major prizes. Ludmilla is a perfectionist and she works on technique, sight-reading and knows the pieces that suit us. In seven years, I have a large repertoire and I play in institutions. A teacher with great patience and great teaching skills. I recommend her immediately. Lucile

Do you want to play Mozart, Debussy or Sofiane Pamart? Einaudi, Satie or Mendelsohn Bartholdy? Or improvise more freely?
It's the same! To become a musician, it's good to know some fundamental basics that will allow you to become independent and approach the music that interests you with awareness.

You have to work strategically, especially when you don't have hours a day to devote. The goal is for you to feel each week that you are better equipped than last week! And the body learns quickly if you feed it the right information.

My teaching adapts to each person's desires, but I like to instill what I consider to be important foundations for the musician's autonomy, technically (posture, flexibility of the arm and wrist) and theoretically (reading and rhythm).

I have a DEM in musical writing (writing in the style of so-called classical composers) from the CRR in Aubervilliers and I am currently studying towards a DEM in piano at the same conservatory.
I also study jazz on my own and regularly improvise in a more free manner.

Learning music can sometimes be laborious, which is why I like to insist on a clear work strategy by leaving the student with a clear and achievable mission each week.

Let's continue to love music and understand it better!

Hello! My name is Linh, I have always been passionate about music and have been playing the piano since I was six years old.
I trained at a music school, then continued with a private teacher, which allowed me to acquire an advanced level in piano as well as a solid foundation in music theory and music theory.
I've also had the chance to play with orchestras and accompany choirs, experiences that have taught me a lot about listening, rhythm, and musical sharing. 🎶

My classes are aimed at beginners and intermediate levels, children and adults.
With me, you will learn to:
🎵 read a score step by step
🎵 master the technical basics of the piano (position, coordination, hand independence)
🎵 play pieces you like (classical, modern or film music)
🎵 develop your musical ear and your sense of rhythm
🎵 gain confidence in yourself and above all, have fun playing!

My approach is caring, patient and fun: I adapt to your pace and your tastes so that each lesson is a pleasant moment.
Piano is all about fun and sharing — so if you want to learn in a relaxed and motivating atmosphere, I'd be delighted to help you! 🎹✨

Hello! I offer tailor-made courses, which can take place at my home in Colombes or at your home (Paris and its surroundings).
I took private piano lessons for many years. I was able to play a wide variety of pieces: classical, jazz, pop, film scores... I also studied several other instruments. As a result, I developed a broad musical knowledge, an open mind, and an understanding of effective ways to progress and enjoy myself.

I can guide you in discovering the joys of the piano by taking you to the other side of the instrument. You just have to dare to take the first step!
It's not "too late" and you don't need any special skills to start playing the piano. You simply need the desire to learn and be willing to dedicate some time to the instrument; everything can be learned.

My method consists of giving you a solid and clear foundation so that you can enjoy yourself and gain independence as quickly as possible. I alternate exercises and pieces of increasing difficulty to help you progress effectively.

For example, you'll learn to read notes and sheet music, and I'll give you all the necessary tools to progress and enjoy yourself. I'm also attentive to your preferences; the course can be adapted to you and your tastes (for example, in the choice of exercises and pieces).

If you want to buy your first keyboard and don't yet know which one to buy, I can also guide you in your first purchase.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

See you soon, William
