Teaching music has been my passion for 10 years, so I really enjoy teaching my students. I love seeing them improve in each class!

I will tell you a little about myself:
In 2021 I completed a Masters in Music Performance and in 2023 a Masters in Music Pedagogy. I also have many years of teaching experience in music schools and as a private teacher. I have taught from children to adults and prepared students for entrance exams. I specialize in classical, contemporary and free improvisation, but combine it with jazz, pop, rock, etc.

My pedagogical philosophy is about increasing student motivation by showing them easier, more effective and more fun tools and ways to work on our instrument. Playing an instrument shouldn't be a chore, but rather a way to switch off from the hectic pace of everyday life. For this reason, my lessons are relaxed and fun. I think improvisation is an essential tool for learning something. That's why improvisation in all its forms is always present in my lessons. I have also been playing the piano for 11 years, so I could accompany my students.

If you are interested in playing the saxophone as a hobby or professionally, I will adapt the lesson content to suit your needs and desires.

It is necessary to have your own saxophone and the appropriate materials.

I offer Spanish conversation classes for all levels, needs and desires, both in person in Zürich and online. We can set the conversations on different topics proposed by me or by you (how to order in a restaurant, how to say hello and goodbye, talk about the weather, talk about the family or knowing how to indicate an address). I adapt to your level and with time and practice I can help you become fluent in Spanish.

I am a very patient girl, I speak clearly and slowly if necessary, in addition, I try to vocalize whenever I teach Spanish to other people. My native language is Spanish, but I also speak Catalan, English and German, so I could translate some things for you that you didn't understand.

If you are interested in improving or learning Spanish, do not hesitate to contact me!
