Présentation
My teaching style is based on pedagogy and focused around the student's individual creative growth. I am a professional freelance musician and alongside performing I have taught instrumental, music theory, and composition lessons privately for many years, and passing along my knowledge from experience is a great passion of mine.

The main values I look for in a student, regardless of ability, are enthusiasm and a commitment to learning. If this sounds like you, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Dear Student, You are going to learn in my class, how to play recorder or oboe on high quality. We will discover every secret of my lovely instruments, and I hope you will enjoy it. I will show you how can you practise, and how can you improve your skills, and how can you become a very good recorder or oboe player. For my oboists I'm going to teach how to make reed, as well. I'm waiting for you in my class!!

I followed a classical training for 13 years in clarinet and in lyrical singing for 5 years. I recently finished a 5-year training at the Paris Conservatory as a singer in contemporary music and I am now graduated from this training (jazz, soul, rnb, metal, rock, musical comedy, French song ...). This year I entered a Master of Music and Performance in London.
I move without problem and listen to the demand for songs to work.

I have instructed students of different age groups in saxophone performance and music theory (including counterpoint, harmony and composition) up until university level, in Spain and the UK. After graduating from Cambridge with a double starred first, taking into consideration my academic results and teaching experience, I have also been selected for inclusion in the Supervisor Registry to teach counterpoint and harmony papers. My approach to lessons is very flexible, and I always try to adapt to the needs and qualities of each student. I believe that communication is essential, and at the beginning of each lesson I ask my students if they found my recommendations from the previous lesson helpful and how they see their progress. After this spoken introduction, we proceed to work on some warm-up and technical exercises. Then, we play some studies and pieces, or go over some music theory exercises, trying to apply the advice from the previous lesson and make further improvements. Finally, we conclude the lesson with a summary, listing the main key points and suggestions and comparing our experience to the previous lessons, trying to find a clear sense of progression and a coherent line of work towards a certain goal. This teleological mindset occupies a central position in my methodology, and I always encourage my students to look ahead and plan a series of stimulating events or challenges to look foward to, such as a concert, a recital, a presentation or an exam.
