Online Music Theory Lessons for Beginners and Advanced Students – Clear, Practical & Personalized

From 115.36 € /h

I am an experienced music educator with a Master’s degree in Music Education, offering individual online music theory lessons for children, teenagers, and adults. These lessons are designed to make music theory clear, practical, and directly connected to real music-making.

What to expect in lessons:
- Personalized online instruction adapted to your level, goals, and learning pace
- Clear explanations of music theory concepts such as notation, rhythm, harmony, and form
- Practical application through listening, analysis, and exercises
- Support for instrumental students (piano or other instruments), composers, and singers

Lessons are well-structured, interactive, and engaging, helping students build a solid theoretical foundation step by step. Concepts are always explained in a logical way and reinforced through practical examples.

Whether you are a beginner, a returning student, or preparing for music exams or entrance tests, I provide clear guidance and supportive instruction throughout the learning process.

About Me

🎹 Personalized Piano Lessons with Structure, Confidence, and Joy

I am an experienced piano teacher with a Master’s degree in Music Education, offering individualized piano lessons for children, teenagers, and adults — from complete beginners to advanced students.

My teaching style is structured, supportive, and student-centered. I believe that every student can learn to play the piano with the right guidance, clear explanations, and a positive learning environment. Lessons are always adapted to each student’s age, learning pace, and musical interests.

In my lessons, we focus on:
- Building a healthy and relaxed piano technique
- Understanding music through note reading, rhythm, and listening
- Developing musical expression and confidence at the keyboard

From the very first lessons, students start playing real music and experience progress step by step. Depending on the student’s goals, lessons may include classical repertoire, basic theory, improvisation, accompaniment, or exam preparation.

I enjoy working with motivated students who are curious about music and open to learning — whether they are young beginners, returning adults, or students who want a more structured and clear approach.

My goal is not only to teach pieces, but to help students understand music, enjoy the learning process, and build long-term motivation.

I look forward to supporting you or your child on your musical journey!

Welcome to my online Piano Class.
I am Maria Papadatou, and I will happily help you achieve your musical goals, from zero to the top.
I love all student levels, but only towards the CLASSICAL piano, of any eras' works and composers.
Don't be afraid, my lesson is human-friendly 😊
Everything goes step by step! Outside the lesson time, I send you lots of short videos to support your practice through the week.

As each student is different, I focus on each ones' needs and I am always creative in helping you learn through the simplest ways - "if it's easy, it's correct", that's my motto!
My greatest happiness is to watch my students grow, overcome any limit and expand in full potential!

As a result, many of my students have won top prizes at major international competitions, as the IBLA Grand Prize, the Spoleto International Piano Competition, the Bach au Jazz (Lilia Boyadjieva) International Piano Competition and many others. And also, at renown online competitions, as The Royal, the IYMC, the Forte Academy, and many-many others.
So, in case you need a competition or exam preparation, here you are at the right place!
I will help you discover the advanced piano technique, and the ways to achieve your best musical interpretation. Also, very important, I'll help you understand and approach each composers' unique style, and, also, secure your concert / stage presence, with simple and effective solutions for memorisation and control.

I am a very proud piano teacher, as on Jan 11 2026 four young students of mine were awarded by the renown American Competition "The Royal Foundation" and were invited and performed at a Gala at the Carnegie Hall in New York City! Also, these kids were invited to participate to the Juilliard School festival, with masterclass and lessons, a fabulous chance and experience that I wish all young pianists could have!

On Sept 1st 2024 three awarded students of mine were invited to perform at The DiMenna Classical Centre of Music in Manhattan, from another American competition, the International Youth Music Competition.

I wish I can always bring such great opportunities and successes to all of my "piano kids"! Just search and watch our YouTube channel to see everyone's progress from the very first lessons to... the Carnegie!

I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age.

I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

I can teach you how to play piano, violin, or viola. I have experience teaching all ages, from beginners to intermediates. I'm very patient with my students and always search for the best way to deliver content and fix problems. I will be available all the time, and if you have any questions or want help with your practice, you can send me a video of your playing or send me your question, and I will respond immediately so you don't have to wait for the next class to get my help.

At my studio my students will not only learn how to play the piano, but they will receive a complete musical education in order to achieve their musical dreams. I will give all my best so everybody will get the tools for developing their own voice, helping them to master the instrument and teaching them all the theoretical knowledge they’ll need to make their particular personality shine. Openness, joy, dedication, creativity and passion for music are some of the things that you will find in the international environment of my studio. I care about who my students are and what they have to say to the world, and I will help them to develop it from the very first lesson.

In my class you will not only be able to receive piano lessons but also will learn to understand how the music works as a language. If the interest and the profile of the student goes in the direction of the purely classical music performance, the lessons will be focused on a deep and conscious piano technique development, practicing techniques, musical interpretation, history of music, history of the piano, applied harmony on the keyboard, analysis, and score reading by a method that I have developed for over 15 years of experience. And if the students wish, I can help them to prepare for the ABRSM exams and competitions as well. All this is aiming to achieve in a very practical and exciting experience the best results in the fastest way possible. But if the profile and the interests of the students goes on another way, I will give them all the tools they need to understand the language of music in depth, so they can find their own voice on the instrument. In that case the lessons will include contents of piano technique, score reading, applied harmony on the keyboard, composition, improvisation, musical arrangement, music production, recording techniques, jazz and pop music analysis and performance. Both programs can be combined depending on the focus and the profile of the student, or in case the student would like to go deeper in one of the previously mentioned subjects there is the opportunity to take an independent course of specialization on the desired topic. At the end of the semester every student will perform at the winter and summer concerts held every year and will have the possibility of making a recording session with the material worked during the term. With this, the student will not only be able to see his progress and work, but also will give him a direct experience of performing and working on a live or studio recording session, which is a fundamental part of the developing process of every musician.

Hope you can join and if so, I’ll be very happy to teach you!

I offer piano lessons for adults and children, tailored to your goals and preferences. Each lesson lasts 45 minutes. Lessons are conducted in English, German and Russian. I teach piano at home in Vienna’s 3rd district and online on a beautiful Yamaha piano.

I have a full class of 13 students. Each semester, I organize a recital. If they wish, even my online students can take part through a live stream :)

I am an award-winning pianist in international competitions, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory named after P.I. Tchaikovsky (BA), and currently a student at the Anton Bruckner University in Austria (MA).

I have developed my own teaching methodology, which varies depending on the student's age, skill level, and preferences. With extensive teaching experience for both adults and children, I have completed pedagogical practice and a piano teaching methodology course at the Moscow Conservatory. I teach beginners from scratch, prepare school students for exams, competitions, concerts, and entrance exams. Additionally, I teach solfeggio, music theory, ear training, rhythm development, hand positioning, and stage performance skills. I work on both classical repertoire and any pieces the student desires. I create custom arrangements for my students, including simplified versions of difficult pieces.

My online setup makes the lessons feel just like in-person: I use a tripod to demonstrate my hands and provide an online screen display for sheet music. After each lesson, I send video tutorials for clear, visual examples.
