Clarinet lessons, note reading and playing by ear, improvisation

From 34 £ /h

I teach clarinet while adapting to the learner's abilities, child or adult.
I like to work on different aspects of music at the same time : learning the instrument, learning melodies by ear, note reading and music theory, improvisation.
I'm a multi-instrumentalist and while I started with classical music, I now play mostly in pop, folk and swing projects.
I invite students to discover music through it's many possibilities and develop their own creativity, whatever their level of ability.

I graduated from the Conservatoire de Nice CNRR (France) in jazz guitar.
I studied there for seven years with renowned professors such as Jean Paul Ceccarelli (Sting), Pierre Bertrand, Robert Persi or Philippe Petit.
My teaching method is flexible and I adapt it to the needs and desires of the student.
We will discuss the technical work on the instrument, the knowledge of the neck and chords and the rhythm. With or without solfege.
The goal is to provide the student with the necessary tools so that he can continue learning by himself at home.

Singing is much more than producing beautiful sounds — it is a way of discovering yourself, expressing emotions, and connecting more deeply with your own personality and inner world. Finding your voice can be a powerful and liberating experience, and my goal is to guide students through that process in a supportive, open, and encouraging atmosphere.

As a classically trained countertenor and conservatory student, I teach the fundamentals of healthy vocal technique while helping students develop confidence, musicality, and freedom in their voice. We work on breathing, posture, resonance, vocal placement, articulation, and expression, always adapted to your individual voice and level of experience.

Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some singing experience, lessons are tailored to your personal goals and interests. I believe every voice is unique, and that singing lessons should not only help you improve technically, but also help you discover new aspects of yourself through music and self-expression.

My teaching style is positive, patient, and flexible. I want students to feel comfortable experimenting, making mistakes, and gradually opening up their voice without fear or pressure. Above all, singing should remain something joyful, inspiring, and deeply human.

Are you a beginner?? No worries: no experience is required! 😁
I can teach you the basics to produce sounds with your saxophone: position of the embouchure (teeth, tongue, lips and vocal cords' position, an element often forgotten), fingerings, use of diafragma,...
After the first two lessons spent on the mouthpiece and neck for the sound production, we will immediately start to play some super easy duos together to practice your capacity of listening, pay attention to the other, ear training as well. I normally use the book of Peter Wastall (titled Learn as you play) as support, but it is not mandatory. There are plenty of good books btw!

Are you an intermediate / advanced student?? I am sure you can still improve in all the basics, but on a different level. I'll teach you the importance of the "voicing" (technique named by the american saxophonist and pedagogue Donald Sinta) to improve your sound production and projection as well as the capacity of correcting and improving the intonation. You can learn all about phrasing and music interpretation, from tonal music until contemporary atonal compositions. And still, you can improve your playing together, practicing in duo on different aspects like tuning, balance, interpretation, performance etc.

Book a lesson and try! If you are not happy, give me a feedback and go on. If you are happy, I will be happy to help you becoming a good musician!

My clarinet and music theory lessons are fully tailored to each individual. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner, have been playing for years, or need help with music theory: together, we’ll find the best way for you to progress. In clarinet lessons, we work on both technique (sound, embouchure, fingering, breathing...) and repertoire, always adapted to your tastes and level. We can play anything from classical pieces to more modern music. In music theory lessons, I help you understand theory in a clear and practical way: rhythm reading, intonation, dictations, basic harmony... Everything is explained step by step, without rushing, and with examples connected to real music. My goal is for you to learn while having fun, without pressure, and at your own pace. I am patient, approachable, and I love helping each student feel comfortable and motivated. In addition, I can complement practical lessons with theory, or vice versa, depending on your needs. I would be delighted to help you!

My course will be based first and foremost on practical and applied knowledge of the piano instrument, whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced player.
Learning an instrument requires first and foremost a good ability to read notes, but also the development of listening skills, in order to be able to learn a passage or a piece by heart more easily and naturally.
You will learn how to adopt a good posture at the piano, how to build an optimal hand position, and how to develop finger agility and flexibility to play fast passages with greater accuracy.
The goal will be to guide you in transforming a score into real music.

A serious teacher, holding a Master's degree in piano and a Master's degree in pedagogy, with a solid academic background and experience dedicated to musical transmission.

The Human Voice has an intimate and emotional connection with our physical body and mentality, whenever we express ourself through speaking, singing, improvising or simply long to express what words cannot, the voice is one of the most direct and authentic ways to connect with ourselves and with others.

Drawing on my professional training in Jazz Vocal at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, my background in Chinese traditional music, and years of personal practice in yoga and qigong, I have developed an organic, embodied approach to vocal expression. Rather than focusing only on vocal technique, I guide students to explore the relationship between breath, body awareness, deep listening, and the natural flow of energy (Qi). Through this process, the voice becomes freer, more grounded, and more expressive.

My lessons are open to singers of all levels, as well as anyone who wishes to reconnect with their voice. Whether your goal is to sing, improvise, build confidence, or discover a more authentic way of expressing yourself, I offer a supportive and creative space where curiosity and individuality are encouraged.

FR:

Each student has their own goals, tastes, and learning style. Therefore, I tailor the course to each student's level and expectations.

For a beginner, we gradually work on posture, technique, reading and the first notions of music theory while quickly playing pieces.

For a more advanced student, the work may be more oriented towards interpretation, technique, musical analysis, accompaniment or preparation for an exam or audition.

Music theory is naturally integrated into the piano course so that it can be used directly for musical practice: reading a score, understanding the rhythm, the tones, the chords and the structure of a piece.

I also offer personalized support for preparing for conservatory entrance exams.

NL:

Elke leerling heeft zijn de haar eigen doelstellingen, muzikale voorkeuren en manier van leren. Daarom stem ik elke les af op het level en de verwachtingen van de leerling.

For beginners we work with you on a sound track, techniques, notes and the basis of music theory, we know that this is the music you play.

You can also focus on interpretation, technology, music analysis, piano performance and audit examination.

Music theory is a natural way to handle piano music, there are two strings that tend to be used in music practices: light scores, rhythms can be played, toonaarden in akkoorden are included in the structure of the music.

I also have people who are interested in your teaching exams at the conservatory.

IN :

Each student has their own goals, musical preferences, and way of learning. I therefore tailor each lesson to their level and individual expectations.

For beginners, we progressively work on posture, technique, reading music, and the basics of music theory, while quickly learning and playing actual pieces.

For more advanced students, the lessons can focus more on interpretation, technique, musical analysis, accompaniment, or preparation for an exam or audition.

Music theory is naturally integrated into the piano lessons so that it directly supports musical practice: reading a score, understanding rhythm, keys, chords, and the structure of a piece.

I also offer personalized guidance for preparing entrance examinations for conservatories.
