Piano lessons/improvisation for beginners/advanced

From 46 £ /h

I am happy to teach interested beginners of all ages or advanced students, depending on their needs, piano (classical/early music/new music) and improvisation.

I find it essential and important to integrate one's own emotions into the interpretation and to make the music authentic and un-mechanical.

About Me

I am happy to teach interested beginners of all ages or advanced students!

I am a German/Cuban pianist with 16 years of experience and an early interest in improvisation and composition.

I find it essential and important to integrate my own emotions into classical interpretation and to make the music authentic and un-mechanical. In improvisation and composition, my main interest lies in combining different forms of artistic expression. I explore possibilities for musical communication and draw inspiration from music, dance, literature and other cultures.

Education

A large part of her influence is the traditional Russian piano school, as she learned classical piano there from the age of 6. She later continued her training with the classical and contemporary concert pianists Prodromos Symeonidis and Vladimir Tropp.
This, combined with her early interest in improvisation, led her to decide to pursue further education. She therefore took lessons with a focus on composition and contemporary music from the composers Sascha Dragićević and Stefan Streich. In 2019 she released her first album with strings, electronics and vocals, which was based on the volume of poetry Les Fleurs du Mal by Charles Baudelaire. She then composed several pieces for solo piano, two pianos and various ensembles.

I teach piano and keyboard skills with a friendly and encouraging approach. My students learn technical exercises and pieces/songs carefully chosen to suit each individual and I also incorporate relevant music theory. I teach on an upright acoustic piano at my place in Wedding and in some cases travel to the student for lessons.

Piano is an incredible instrument to learn - it provides you with a broad understanding of music, develops listening skills, and great dexterity, increases concentration, and much more.
I specialize in jazz piano but teach all musical styles according to the student's needs and wishes. Throughout the lesson we will learn music and songs, technique, harmony, ear training, theory, and rhythm - all subjects of music can be addressed through the piano!

I am an experienced, fun, and exciting piano teacher who loves what I do! I’m passionate about tailoring lessons to the student’s interests, desires, and needs. We do a combination of improvising, music theory, technical work, and note reading to best serve the student’s goals. My priority as a teacher is to help each student reach their potential while giving them the love and enjoyment of playing music. I enjoy teaching children and adults. Currently offering in-home lessons in English or German in Pankow, Prenzlauer Berg, and Wedding.

Hello there!

My name is Sara and I'm a classical pianist and piano teacher. I have been a pianist for about 15 years and started teaching it a while ago as well. I offer lessons in 3 different languages ( English, Arabic and German) for both beginner and intermediate levels.

I believe music should be enjoyed and comfortably played, allowing people to both connect with it and understand while challenging them to express themselves in new and different ways. Music lessons are fun and will be set to make the student confident and comfortable in their playing. If any student needs extra time or space to feel secure and safe, I will offer as much understanding and security as I can.
Trust is my number one motto, if for any reason a student feels pressured or uncomfortable they can come and talk to me directly and we shall figure out a way to make music learning fun and enjoyable for them.

I'd like to think of myself as someone who truly enjoys making a good change in the world and who tries to offer the best possible experience when getting to know the instrument and how to play it and I hope you find the trust in me to sign up for my class!

Thank you and have a lovely day

Sara

I graduated in piano with the highest honors under the guidance of Maestro Roberto Corlianò. Later I worked in: Salzburg, Austria (as a piano teacher's assistant) and later in Italy and in the Netherlands as a piano teacher. I have had students from 4 to 75 and the lessons will be open to all those who want to approach this instrument for the first time or wish to deepen their knowledge. My approach is very free and is based on the needs of the student. I work exceptionally hard and am always open to finding new teaching methods. I try to understand students' weaknesses to reduce difficulties and their strengths to improve their skills. Currently I am teaching piano at Musikschule Behm, Bertheau & Morgenstern, in Potsdam.

👂 My motto for teaching music: Learn with your ear, before understanding it with your brain.

Music can be explained entirely from a theoretical point of view 🤯. But I'm convinced that the best approach is to feel and sing the music 🎤💖, before understanding and interpreting it theoretically.

I teach music theory intuitively 💫. More than just a way of reading sheet music, I can show you how to deconstruct a piece of music in any genre, how to interpret chords, and how to improvise simply and effectively.

Let me teach you to write your own songs, learn any song by ear, create your own style or begin your journey into the world of music and playing the piano. My method is based on learning music from listening, perception and creativity. My classes are extremely practical and adaptable to the needs and interests of the student, from piano applied to songwriting or the understanding of musical language and harmony, to the preparation of different repertoires and the writing of your own songs.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Playing piano doesn’t have to start with complicated sheet music. In this course, you’ll learn how to play the piano using chords as your foundation, so you can quickly understand how songs are built and start playing music you love from the very beginning.

This is a practical, modern approach designed for students who want real results. Instead of memorizing notes, you’ll learn the chord concepts and patterns that apply to almost any song.

You will learn:
How chords work across the entire keyboard
The most common chord progressions used in countless songs
Left-hand and right-hand accompaniment patterns
How to recognize chords by ear and play without sheet music
Smooth transitions between chords and song sections
How to add rhythm, flow, and expression to your playing

Klavierunterricht für Kinder ab 4 Jahren, Jugendliche und
Erwachsene. Der Unterricht findet bei Ihnen zu Hause statt, in
jedem Berliner Bezirk, oder auf Wunsch online.

WIE ICH UNTERRICHTE
Eine saubere Technik ist die Grundlage, aber gespielt wird das,
was Sie wirklich hören wollen. Filmmusik, Pop und Klassik
schließen sich nicht aus, und Motivation entsteht genau da, wo
beides zusammenkommt. Bei Kindern arbeite ich geduldig und mit
klarer Struktur, damit zu Hause auch tatsächlich geübt wird.

DIE ERSTE STUNDE
Wir finden zuerst heraus, was Sie oder Ihr Kind wirklich spielen
möchten. Danach schauen wir uns das Instrument an, die Haltung,
die Hände. Am Ende der ersten Stunde haben Sie etwas gespielt,
auch als kompletter Anfänger.

RAHMEN
Fester wöchentlicher Termin, 30, 45 oder 60 Minuten. Ein Klavier
oder ein Keyboard zum Üben genügt für den Anfang. Fahrzeit und
Vorbereitungszeit sind im Preis enthalten.

---------------------------------------------------------

Piano lessons for children from age 4, teenagers and adults, at
your home anywhere in Berlin, or online if you prefer. Lessons
in English, Turkish or German.

Clean technique is the foundation, but we play the music that
actually pulls you to the instrument. I have been teaching for
seven years and currently also teach at two Berlin music
schools.

A fixed weekly slot, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. A piano or a keyboard
at home is enough to start. Travel and preparation time are
included in the price.
