Of course, we will see rudiments, musical and technical reading, we will also work with songs and their recording process, necessary tools whatever path you want to take in music.

Portfolio Preparation and University Counseling for Art and Design University ApplicationsI am an attentive, dedicated, and lively art teacher with 10 years of experience in portfolio preparation and university counseling.
I help students with:
• CREATING A WINNING PORTFOLIO:
Learn how to create ambitious, interesting works; how to take good photos of artwork; how to edit images with Adobe Photoshop; how to write smart, intellectual texts on your works; how to layout and design a portfolio with Adobe InDesign, typography, which works to include in which order for each portfolio (you should *never* send the same portfolio to all schools! :D).
• SCHOOL SEARCH AND UNIVERSITY COUNSELLING:
North American / European university recommendations (France, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden,...); finding the right schools for you, finding and applying for scholarships. I also work as an interviewer for my alma mater; as such I can offer veritable insight into university application and acceptance process.
• UNIVERSITY APPLICATION SKILLS:
Interview preparation; emailing with universities; university-specific, personalized exam prep for European universities with on-location entrance exams, collecting the right recommendations; writing winning application letters/essays from first idea to final spellcheck
• TRANSFORMING STUDENTS INTO YOUNG ARTIST/DESIGNERS:
With individually-tailored, highly-effective programs that merge art skills with professional skills, my students transform from ‘learner’ to ‘young professionals’ in a matter of months.
>>> You will learn art skills including drawing, color skills, creating enticing/engaging compositions, experimentation and understanding of various artistic materials and techniques ([analog and digital] drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, video, animation, performance, interactive media...).
>>> You will also learn any supportive computer software skills you might need (Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Dimension, Premiere, After Effects, 3DS Max/SketchUp/Blender).
>>> You will create both major-specific projects and artwork that complements your major, to show you "have the right mindset" ;)
>>> Finally, with classes that focus on art history and philosophy, and you will learn how to write and talk about art and design projects, which will make you truly stand out.
My students transform into young designers/artists because of this well-rounded approach. This is why my success statistics are:
98% Total percentage of acceptances received (from all applications to date)
100% Total percentage of scholarships awarded (from universities that offer scholarships)
100% Total university placement (of all students to date)
To achieve the same success as the students before you: You need to come to classes and you need to do your homework. But if you do these two student basics, I promise I will get you into your dream school. Really :)

English for varied target groups by a bilingual teacherUndoubtedly, English is one of the most important languages in the world from both a social and professional perspective. Do you want to better understand what all those English-language songs are really about or do you want to be able to follow a Hollywood movie without subtitles? Do you want to be able to express yourself better to your English friends? Do you need extra help preparing for an English exam? Do you want to be able to communicate in English in an appropriate way for your work? With all these things and much more you have come to the right place.
After living in Canada for 13 years, I speak English at a native level. Beyond that, I have a university degree in Second Language Teaching and taught in Madrid for two years.
A foreign language can cause a lot of stress for many people. Nevertheless, I always do my best to make my classes as interesting and stress-free as possible. I am an enthusiastic, patient and very positive teacher.

Acrobatic rock lessons for dancer or dancing coupleThe acrobatic rock variant that I teach makes it possible to "shine" both in salon, as in ball, gala or events of any kind. : -)
The version I teach comes a little bit out of the "leader/leader" frame, but I prefer to give a course to a woman, or to one, or several duo of apprentice dancer.
No prerequisites are necessary, the goal is to have a good time and learn.
The first course will cover basic steps, as well as other more "impressive" ones, depending on the level of/students. Progress is visible from the first session, even for beginners.
I taught mostly in schools, for galas, shows, rallies, balls, associative events.

Mathias
Studio musician gives piano (and composition) lessons in Montreal-- I also teach in english --
My lessons are for anyone wishing to approach the piano in a personalized way, regardless of the style and level targeted.
I divide my teaching into equal parts between theory (melody, harmony and rhythm) and practice (all pieces of your choice), the aim being to offer you a grid of global understanding of writing and musical interpretation.
I start from the principle that you have to have fun from the start, while looking for a high level of autonomy.
-- About me --
Having grown up abroad (in the Central African Republic then in Saudi Arabia), I had the chance to learn the piano through an eclectic teaching.
In particular, I was a student of Gulmira Abdukhalikova, a Kazakh concert artist now based in Abu-Dhabi, who made me progress by applying the famous "Russian method". At 13, I won 3rd place in the International Piano Competition of Île de France at Maisons-Lafitte.
At the end of my adolescence, I participated in the Big Band of the Children of Jazz, within the framework of a festival organized each year in Barcelonette by Stéphane Kochoyan (who was also, at the time, artistic director of the Jazz Festival in Vienna).
Subsequently, I set sail for Canada where I lived for six years. I co-animated several Open-Mics of poetry, as a pianist-improviser, and I produced two albums: "Fragments" (2018) and "Echoes of space-time" (2019), the latter having been 100% improvised and recorded "one-shot" in the studio.
At the end of 2020, three years after having started giving piano lessons in Canada and France, I publish "The method of the self-taught pianist" as well as my own sight-reading manual.
