I am an orchestra performer with more than 15 years of experience. I offer instrumental tutoring both on violin and on viola, as well as music theory lessons.

I currently have a nice group of private students and most of them have decided to continuing their lessons going through skype and zoom in these challenging times.

You'll learn how to play confidently and with enjoyment, supported by a strong technique. The lessons will be held weekly, I'll give you directions on what books to use and when needed provide for learning material.

I am a graduated music teacher and professional orchestra musician, have an experience over fifteen years playing in symphony orchestra and opera theatre, teaching children privately and in schools to play on several classical instruments including double bass, piano, singing, classical acoustic and bass guitars. I am a very dedicated and extremely passionate about music and possess the ability to inspire children and adults.

My lessons are heavily tailored to the needs and interests of my students, whether that be learning to write/edit/improve lyrics and melodies, a crash course in music theory, putting chord progressions together, finishing songs and developing productive routines, or adding some accountability and objective feedback to your process.

Working as a professional songwriter and studying MA Songwriting has equipped me with a wealth of tools to sharpen the technical craft of a song and to harness the creative process to bring the best out of other songwriters. In lessons, I draw from this to help new writers develop their own unique voices.

I'm a big believer in constantly writing and sharing so I like to set weekly briefs to encourage you to write in new ways and then give detailed and constructive feedback that will help you grow. I know from experience that sharing new songs can be unnerving so I take a lot of care helping people overcome this hurdle.

Outside of classes, I'm open to discuss songs, technique, career goals, co-writing, learning resources, and other topics that will help you develop as a songwriter.

I'm a professional songwriter with over nine years writing experience and countless co-writes in the tank. I regularly write with artists in the UK, around Europe, and in the US and have recently started taking my first production clients. As a writer, I'm primarily concerned by the lyric, form and structure side of writing but, with guitar as my main instrument, also usually write the majority of the musical elements.

My specialities are in alt-pop, indie-rock, acoustic pop, and folk but also have experience in RnB and country.

I have been playing the piano for 13 years. I have always loved learning the instrument and music in general. I teach beginner classes for any age, however, most of my experience is teaching children.

I teach classical piano. I can teach for whatever ends are desired, be that going through the ABRSM grades or just playing for fun.

Learning music can be quite frustrating particularly when few teachers intertwine musical theory with instrumental proficiency in a comprehensive manner. Normally the focus is on one or the other and I personally found this quite frustrating. I always felt the best way was to learn both alongside each other - that is to apply musical knowledge to the instrument and to have the knowledge to appreciate and understand the music that is being played. The best part is this can all be done at the keyboard, keeping playing the piano a fun activity and not a chore.

I offer beginner to advanced tuition on Violin and Trumpet and additional classes on Jazz Piano.
I am a passionate and committed teacher and take great pride to see a student grow from nervous self-consciousness, through stumbling experimentation and discovery, towards overcoming challenges and growing in self-belief in order to find great reward in the concerted effort of musical endeavour.

Research has shown that singing can be good for you on many levels. It may help lower stress, boost immunity and lung function, enhance memory, improve mental health, and help you cope with physical and emotional pain. One of the best things about singing is that you don't have to be good at it to reap the rewards.
Regular piano playing offers different physical and physiological advantages to players. It sharpens fine motor skills, improves dexterity and hand-eye coordination. Music has also been shown to reduce heart and respiratory rates, cardiac complications, and to lower blood pressure and increase immune response.

Whether we're learning an instrument, writing a song, or developing our understand of musical ideas, letting music into our lives brings a unique and unmatched level of joy and fulfilment. As an award winning songwriter and professionally teaching musician myself, I love sharing my knowledge with those looking to learn a new skill, develop their craft, or simply take up a new hobby!

These lessons are open to absolutely anybody who want to try something new. Each lesson is specifically catered to the students needs and requirements, as we strive to develop whichever aspect of music craft you may be looking for! Want to sing and play your favourite songs? Want to write and produce your own music? Want to learn about what makes music "sound good"? We can cover any and all of these, and more!

Having taught 2 - 50+ year olds for 10+ years, my instrument specialties include guitar, electric guitar, piano, bass guitar, double bass, ukulele, trombone, voice and some other odd and wacky things! Additionally, I have been working as a professional song-writer for 10+ years, having studied at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music and winning awards such as Best Song Written for Film and TV at the APRA Awards in Australia.

I look forward to hearing from you and getting started on our musical journey together :)

My name is Lawrence. I'm currently offering limited teaching slots to new online and face-to-face students from my studio in Hackney Wick and home studio in Leyton.

As a tutor, I aim to build a solid technique and theoretical understanding relevant to students’ interests. This allows the student a foundation of tools to further their creative and technical studies and harness their own sound and voice through music. I teach electric bass and music theory from beginner to advanced students within soul, pop, funk, hip-hop, jazz fusion, metal prog, and more.

I have over 8 years of private and instituional teaching experience. I have taught juniors at The British Institute of Modern Music in Brighton and degree-level students at The Waterbrear College of Music in Brighton. I also possess a BA(Hons) in music performance, and I'm certified with an enhanced CRB/DBS, Child Safeguarding & First Aid at Work.

(ENG -FR) Hi ! I am a Swiss concert pianist and teacher living in east London. Interested in all kind of arts, I am a relaxed, friendly and easy-going person, looking forward to meeting you !
My approach to piano teaching is very flexible, as every student is different, has another path and another story to tell through music.
We'll focus on your needs and desires and define the goals together. My job will be to take you where you want to go, step by step.
Music is a language, and I'll be able to help you understand the "grammar" of it if you need or want it.
In general, each lesson includes various learning aspects (sight reading, technique, breathing ...), all serving the musical expression.
I teach at my house on my lovely Yamaha baby grand piano (or can travel to your place if not too far from Lower Clapton).
I've enjoyed teaching the piano for more than 2 decades now, to children and adults of all age, both at home or in piano schools, with lots of achievements and satisfaction for both my students and me :-)
I have a professional teaching diploma as well as a master degree in performance (concert diploma) issued in Switzerland (university of the Arts - Bern)

I’m an experienced guitarist and I can help those of all abilities and ages looking to learn the instrument or develops their skills. I’ve been playing for 16 years and I’m well versed in most genres and styles of music.

Open to all stages of learning whether you want to focus on fundamentals and guitar theory or develop your own style and technique.

I can support anyone looking to gain knowledge of harmony, chord melody, soloing, popular and unconventional song structure and style. Or if you want to learn other songs and build up your repertoire.

My musical background is primarily as a jazz guitarist, specialising in improvisation and composition. This is something I can work on with students once core skills are acquired.

I can also help get students get up to speed with their grade exams and offer musical theory support.

Aside from my
experience as a guitarist, I play in different bands as a Writer and composer. I have experience as a recording artist at Abbey Road studios and I can teach students about song writing and composition.

I’m fluent on music softwares such as Logic Pro X and Ableton and offer Music Production and Recording technique classes at my own studio in Clapton East London.

If you want to learn more about the guitar and progress as a musician or songwriter please get in touch!

By taking online music classes in cello, piano, music theory, and composition, students can develop a well-rounded musical foundation. Cello and piano lessons enhance instrumental technique, musical expression, and performance skills. Music theory classes provide an understanding of harmony, rhythm, and melody, essential for analyzing and interpreting music. Composition classes allow students to apply their theoretical knowledge by creating original pieces, learning how to structure works, orchestrate for different instruments, and develop a personal style. These classes also cultivate discipline, creativity, and confidence in musical practice.

Everything you need to learn to in order to create your own music and express your creativity.

Lectures, workshops, 1:1 tutorials.

Specialisms include Popular Music Songwriting, Music Production, Aesthetic Framework, and Introduction to Mixing Techniques.

Lectures: 1)How to compose with samples using human and performative elements. 2)The producer as composer. From a technical to an artistic matter. 3) Acoustic music within the soundscape of electronics.

Music Composition is an invaluable practice, that requires both technical skills and creative aptitude. In my classes, we will focus on establishing, building on and fine-tuning both these areas whatever level you're at. We'll tackle each angle of music theory (melody, harmony, rhythm, arrangement, etc) as well as looking at the histories of musical composition in both the Western musical canon and beyond. As a musician, composer, performer, and sound engineer, I have an extensive knowledge of all aspects of music - technical, creative, professional, performance - and will tailor my lessons toward my students' specific interests within these wide-reaching areas.
