Mariam offers classical piano lessons for ages 5 and above, from beginner to advanced. This piano teacher has a Master of Arts in Performance Practice, a Master of Philosophy in Music, and a wealth of experience both teaching and performing on piano. Mariam has been teaching piano lessons since 2000. Mariam made her Carnegie Hall debut at age 16 as the youngest pianist in Carnegie's history to have performed J.S. Bach's Goldberg Variations. She has numerous accomplishments in piano, including recording a critically-noted CD of the Goldberg Variations, appearing live on radio and television, winning prizes at competitions, and receiving international press recognition. Mariam has performed as a recitalist, chamber musician, and soloist with orchestras including the Bach-Collegium Stuttgart, the Philadelphia Chamber Orchestra, and the Boston Pops, in venues ranging from Symphony Hall in Boston, Lincoln Center in New York, the Grand Philharmonic Hall in Saint Petersburg, and the Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto. She has performed around the world, including in Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and the United States. As a result of a portfolio career in music, Mariam's teaching methodology reflects a holistic approach to piano performance and musicianship development. She aims to advance piano technique through music history, theory, and analysis. She also structures individualized programs to build on each student’s strengths to empower independent study through self-awareness, critical thinking, and listening comprehension. Having successfully taught children, adults, amateurs, professionals, and celebrities, Mariam is highly qualified to help achieve any student's pianistic aspirations.

I have been teaching piano for over 12 years and believe in friendly, supportive tuition to help you achieve your goals at your own pace.

French concert pianist, graduate from Royal College of Music of London.

I have multiple recordings on streaming platforms, now totalling more than 20 000 streams.

I've always loved sharing my knowledge and experience, as much as sharing my music on stage with the audience.

I am very careful of always put the student's wishes and thoughts in priority, while finding the right balance between work and enjoyment.

Even though I focus on performing, I have been teaching privately for 8 years now, as I always had a passion of teaching and sharing my passion and everything I've learned with Piano Masters for 20+ Years !

I am very patient, comprehensive, I always try my best to adapt find the right approach and technical tools to help the student in the best way possible.
I take extra care in making sure the musician likes what he is playing, wants to work on it, really understand his strong and weak points, his objectives, and organise my work around it.

I'm also really open in alternative repertoire, and non-conventional pieces, because I'm convinced that you can make a lot of progress working on any type of music, not just the exam or "traditional" classical repertoire.

If you have a music in mind that you dream of playing, don't hesitate to let me know and I will find a score suitable for your abilities, or if it doesn't exist, I will create one !

I'm looking forward to help you achieve your goals and make good music together !

-5 years tutoring experience
-10 years experience of piano-playing and live performance - both as a solo performer and with improvisational groups
-100% pass rate for my students who have taken ABRSM and Trinity Piano exams
-ABRSM Grade 8 Piano
-ABRSM Grade 6 Music Theory
-Attended Dulwich College on a Music Exhibition
-Advanced DBS checked

I have been playing piano all my life and performing for about 10 years around the UK. I have been teaching beginner and advanced students for around 5 years. I have ABRSM Grade 8 Piano, ABRSM Grade 6 Music Theory, and I am currently awaiting the result of a Dip(ABRSM) in Teaching Piano. I have taught preparation for Grade exams in both the Trinity and ABRSM syllabuses, with 100% pass rate for my students.

I enjoy finding ways to teach piano-playing techniques and music theory in an accessible way. My methodology usually involves the use of improvisational techniques to get confident with scales and arpeggios, and to understand music theory better. I encourage my students to listen further to music related to what we're playing, and enjoy guiding them in what to listen to next. As a performer myself, I understand the importance of feeling relaxed and confident with what you're playing.

Music has always been a huge part of my life and I would be thrilled to pass on my knowledge. I studied music at university and have Grade 8 in both piano and vocals, but I have also performed in many different venues across the UK. I have helped previous students with stage-fright and anxiety with performing as well as aiding them learn their favourite songs on piano - and singing along at the same time. I can teach in many different piano styles from popular music to classical and I can also teach music theory.

I have a deep passion for traditional, holistic yogic practises and I understand that large classes can be overwhelming. I have found that Yoga is very individual, and with gentle 1:1 guidance, has lots room for personal growth. I can teach poses, breathing techniques and meditation to help us feel the best we can.

All my lessons will be tailored to each student, we will discuss together the goals of the practise, and provide the balance of learning, but also making it fun and enjoyable and a space to relax.

Tailor teaching to individual needs, create structured lesson plans, focus on fundamentals, provide positive reinforcement, set realistic goals, use varied teaching methods, make learning enjoyable, offer constructive feedback, and stay updated with teaching techniques.
My Musical Proficiency:
- Knowledge of music theory.
Teaching Skills
- Effective communication and clear explanations.
- Patience and motivational abilities.
Pedagogical Skills
- Ability to design individualized lesson plans.
- Skill in assessing student progress.
Interpersonal Skills
- Empathy and understanding of students' needs.
- Building rapport with students and parents.
Adaptability
- Flexibility in teaching methods for different learning styles.
- Problem-solving skills to address learning challenges.

I believe lessons should be first and foremost enjoyable, but also serve as a means to break new ground and inspire as much practice as possible at home! So we'll start by establishing an objective of the student's choice that reflects their ambitions, and then work through the appropriate techniques, exercises, and repertoire that allows us to get there in as enjoyable a way as possible!

Lessons will be supplemented with listening/aural exercises, music theory training, and performance/contextual discussions (if necessary!).
