Online Piano classes with an experienced teacher from Romania

From 46 € /h

Hello,

I am a classical pianist from Romania with more than 15 years of experience in teaching the piano at a professional level. I teach at all levels and at any age.

The course can be given in English and Romanian! I also speak a little bit of Spanish, French and German.( I understand more than I can speak).
If you want to learn to play the piano staying at home, I would be very happy to help you to make your dream come true!

To play the piano is an amazing journey at any level! If we talk about a child, he will discover an amazing language to express his feelings and to build his self-confidence! Moreover, he will develop skills that will help him at school and in life.

If we talk about adults, they will discover a lot of amazing things about themselves, they will improve their learning and analysis methods and, last but not least, they will have fun!

What will you learn?
1. How to read a score.
2. How to play the piano like a professional.
3. What is behind the music? Structure analysis, the message (emotions, images, effects) how to express your own feelings and beliefs through music
4. How to prepare for performing on stage (if you like to do this).

Alexandros

I am a Veterinary Medicine student who lives in Timisoara. I possess a piano diploma and have significant teaching experience. I have participated and won in many competitions, taken part in international conferences such as ''Poros international piano academy'' and attended to numerous masterclasses with great Pianists such as ''Aquiles Delle Vigne'', ''Agathe Leimoni'', ''Claudio Constantini'', ''Maria Pliassova'', ''Rafael Salinas'', ''Borislava Taneva'', ''Michael Wladowski'', etc.

I teach classical piano techniques, but, I can also teach you how to play by ear any song you like. In my classes, you can make your first steps on the piano, or develop your skills and knowledge.

I'm very patient and friendly, especially with young children, and I apply special teaching methods for people with learning disorders.

The lessons are adjusted to every student according to his/her musical desires.
