Trusted teacher: Composition and orchestration open the door to a deep understanding of music—from the sound of a single note to the architecture of an entire symphony. In this course, you'll learn not only how to play, but also how to think like a musician and composer. Whether you are a beginner looking to gain a solid foundation on the guitar, or an advanced musician looking to explore harmony, arranging, and orchestration for ensembles or film music, this course is tailored to your personal goals. Through practical exercises, ear training, and creative projects, you'll develop your musical language, sense of structure, and artistic voice—connecting technique with imagination. My approach combines classical knowledge, modern composition tools, and a focus on musical storytelling to help you transform your ideas from a single instrument to a full orchestra. The guitar is an instrument of infinite richness—capable of expressing both the sweetness of an intimate melody and the power of a full orchestra. In this course, you'll learn to master the guitar as a means of personal expression, developing your technique, ear, and musicianship. Whether you are a beginner or already experienced, I will guide you step by step through the essential basics (posture, rhythm, chords, reading) to advanced techniques (arpeggios, improvisation, interpretation and arrangements). My approach connects instrumental practice with musical understanding, so you can not only play, but also understand and feel the music you create. Each lesson is tailored to your level and style—classical, modern, or creative.

Trusted teacher: Hello, My name is Michał, I’m 24 years old, and for the past several years I’ve been teaching guitar lessons. I started playing guitar myself as a child, and ever since then I’ve been developing my skills every day—because this is truly my biggest and most important passion. This offer is for anyone who either wants to see if guitar is right for them or already has some skills but isn’t sure which direction to take next to improve. I understand that the guitar is a vast and complex subject, which is why I approach each student individually—everyone has their own preferences and pace of learning. ---------------🎸 For beginners--------------------------- I’ll gladly introduce you to the world of guitar by starting with actual music—simple but impressive songs that sound great without requiring years of practice. (Yes, guitar can be tough at first, but trust me—it’s nothing to fear 😉.) ------------🎸 For those with some experience---- We jump right in. 😎 Besides working on songs you choose, we also explore more advanced and exciting topics like: -------------🎶 Music theory-------------------------------- I explain music theory in a clear and simple way, using examples from around the world and across genres. Most importantly, I focus on understanding the concepts—not just memorizing dry patterns—so you can apply them naturally and quickly. -----------✍️ Composing your own songs------- We combine theory with creativity to write complete pieces from scratch. We’ll shape the mood, structure, and arrangement to bring out the best in your ideas. -----------🎸 Improvisation------------------------------ This is my personal favorite. We use all the knowledge you’ve gained to jam together, creating spontaneous music and learning the most in the process—while having fun at the same time! ----------------💡 Creative guitar techniques------- Starting from the easiest tricks, I’ll show you how to spice up your playing and develop your own personal style. 🎯 In my lessons, the most important things are: a relaxed, friendly atmosphere, creativity and growth in many areas of musicianship. As a self-taught musician, I often use non-traditional teaching methods, so your progress will feel natural—and you’ll be learning by playing what you actually enjoy, rather than doing dry exercises for an hour straight. Bonus: I also have experience and certification as a recording technician, so if you're interested, we can record your playing during lessons, and I’ll help you learn about: working with DAWs, mixing and mastering, and how to record your own music at home. 📍 Location: Lessons take place at my home studio in Kraków (Prądnik Biały). I also offer online lessons (Messenger/Zoom/ETC) I do not tend to update the availabity of the spare hours, so feel free to ask :)

Trusted teacher: I have been immersed in music, and particularly the piano, for over 40 years. I was trained by concert professors, who were themselves trained by the greatest (my own professor's piano teacher was taught by Alfred Cortot). I learned music theory at the Conservatoire and harmony and counterpoint at the HEM in Geneva. At the same time, I have a Bachelor's degree in Musicology from the Université des Lettres de Genève. This allows me not only to teach the essential basics of music to students, but also to place each style and each composer in its historical context. This greatly facilitates learning. I teach all types of music, from classical to modern pop, including film music and more recent composers like Ludovico Einaudi. My goal is to give the student a good harmonic foundation and a good musical ear so that they can be independent in what they want to play and always have the pleasure of sitting down at the piano! My classes are aimed at beginners of all ages (children or adults) with no musical knowledge, as well as advanced students or those who want to prepare for theoretical or practical exams. The scores will always be chosen in agreement with the student, according to their objectives and desired progress, mixing all musical styles (classical, pop, film music, etc.) so that they always have fun playing their instrument. Each student is unique, which is why each lesson is prepared individually to meet their aspirations or objectives. It is very important to me that the course takes place in a kind and sharing atmosphere, with discussion. For children, I can conduct regular interviews with parents in person or by phone (after each lesson if necessary) to report on the progress made and the achievement of desired objectives. I am very flexible regarding the wishes of each student and therefore adapt easily to any situation. The strong points of the lessons: • In all styles (classical, contemporary, modern hits, film music) • All levels, courses in French • Possibility of courses or additional courses in English or Russian if necessary • All ages (for children under 6 years old, lessons of 15-20 minutes maximum with adapted price) • Organization of recitals in the presence of parents and the public in a friendly atmosphere • Kindness • Adaptation to each student, definition of objectives individually • The student can choose certain pieces that he would like to play • Improvisation: learning improvisation techniques so that the student can play pieces on the piano naturally and without sheet music. • For children: regular interviews with parents in person or by telephone (after each lesson if necessary) to report on progress made and achievement of desired objectives • Discount from the 2nd student per family • Listening to each student • Always in kindness and benevolence • Theory and practice are taught in parallel so that the student always enjoys everything they do. Possibility of taking the two separately (either piano or music theory) • Share my passion for music • Patience • Piano 4 hands • Canton of Geneva – free travel
