Composition/Music Theory/Piano Lessons with a Native English Speaker for All Levels

From 46 £ /h

Composition is hard to define and is by no means limited to one particular style or genre. Our meetings would provide a framework and the context for you to delve deeper into your chosen ideas and creations.

As well as composition, I am able to assist you with music theory, ear training, piano and general musicianship. I plan my lessons individually and orientate myself towards your goals. Whether you want to create a Bach fugue or a new single for your EDM album, I would be there to support your stylistic decisions.

About Me

Tom recently graduated with distinction from the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, earning the academic title of Magister Artium. His current music blurs the boundary between a purely noise-orientated production of sound and moments of awareness that reflect on the tranquility of calmness and slow-paced, fragile harmony. Helmut Lachenmann, Klaus Lang, Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart, Ensemble Modern, Meitar Ensemble and Klangforum Wien have aided Tom’s early professional development through international masterclasses, seminars and private lessons in Central Europe and the Middle East. Tom was awarded the second prize in the MAP International Music Competition for his solo piano composition and was also a finalist in the Mayflower Art Centre’s 2022 “In Bloom” MusiCON festival. As a result, his works were performed at the National Opera Centre in New York in 2023. Tom is grateful to be supported by The Cross Trust for a number of years as well as the The Association for Cultural Exchange Foundation, The Scottish International Educational Trust and The Hope Scott Trust.

English Tutoring for All Levels (A1-C2) with Native Speaker

41 £ /h

The English language is increasingly becoming an essential skill. I plan my lessons individually and orientate myself towards your goals. If you want to work from your school textbook, use online resources, or have a less structured conversational class, we can make it happen. Achieving confidence and motivation is key.

I am a native English speaker from Scotland with a TEFL qualification. I have tutored over 100 children aged 7-17 with various organisations, most notably the American International School in Vienna.

Hello!
I teach private piano lessons to adults and children at all levels.
My methods of teaching varies on each individual.

I generally start to focus on music theory, techniques, repertoire and understanding music emotionally using dynamics, feeling, touch and hearing skills.
The emotional part of music is very prominent when I teach, it is very important for the student to enjoy what they're learning and to also have access to be able to express themselves through music.

Some students are better at learning by ear, improvising and composition, some other students are better with music theory and learning repertoire. Depending on the student, I usually work on their strengths to keep their interest and eventually move on to the more difficult aspects of music and learning how to play the piano!
Musicians health is also a part of my teaching methods.
It is very important to approach music with a relaxed attitude mentally and physically especially to prevent any future injuries!

If you have any further questions please let me know!
Hope to hear from you soon.

Learning to play the violin not only requires passion and will, but also motivation and fun. My method is based on making music together and having fun learning and playing new pieces together to create a creative and inspiring atmosphere. The correct violin technique is always taught in the background. I think anyone can play the violin. That's why I like to teach both children and adults, beginners or advanced. Lessons in the first district at Schwedenplatz.

I am happy to meet you in the trial lesson!

I have been teaching classes for all ages for many years. Depending on this, as well as the level of play, I adapt to different teaching methods. We are all unique and different people require different approaches. But what is most important to me is that every student loves music more and progresses with this class.
On the accordion you can play a wide variety of music genres: classical, jazz, dances such as tango and waltz and others, and everything sounds interesting and special.

If you are interested and interested, get in touch! I would be very happy! :)
