About Me

ANNA Z

One of my favourite things about Josh as teacher is that he pays close attention to what can get me further musically at the moment. Our lessons are always about much more than just learning to play songs. In the last few months I enjoyed jamming together, great practice routine tips, music theory, switching genres and help with the gear.

Oh, and Josh is a really great motivator, too!

"Josh is an extremely patient, encouraging and knowledgable guitar instructor, and the combination of his skill, experience and love for music came through in every one of his lessons. In a small amount of time, I saw a significant amount of progress in myself, and I only have Josh to thank for that. Thanks a million, Josh!"

“Working together was a true delight! I received 5 lessons of vocal coaching.
He emphasized the difference of classical singing and the singer/songwriter style.

Besides that he provided me with easy to follow exercises I could practice on a daily basis to work on my breath support.

We also discussed mental aspects of singing and the importance of beeing relaxed.
Throughout a combination of practice and theory I made a great progress in my confidence of singing and in my technique as well! Highly recommended :-) “

I teach piano and keyboard skills with a friendly and encouraging approach. My students learn technical exercises and pieces/songs carefully chosen to suit each individual and I also incorporate relevant music theory. I teach on an upright acoustic piano at my place in Wedding and in some cases travel to the student for lessons.

ENGLISH-SPEAKING PIANO TUTOR

I teach adults of all levels!

I often mentor people who are just starting out, helping them develop their interest in the instrument and play the music they love.

A lot of students come in with anxiety about how good or fast they're going to be able to learn. I work to build a respectful, supportive environment where you feel comfortable developing and learning at your own pace.

For intermediate and advanced students, I teach with a particular focus on fundamental technique through études, and developing musicality.

Oftentimes, as hobbyists, we have holes from our early studies that prevent us from developing later in life. My aim is to help correct that. You should leave with renewed confidence to tackle pieces that have intimidated or eluded you in the past.

I hope to teach you soon!

I'm a former New York City voice teacher/coach, professional singer and an award winning composer who has relocated to Berlin. I've taught with the most reputable children's musical theatre organizations in NYC with students of all ages as well as private students and I've worked with Broadway stars such as Laura Osnes, Karen Mason and Ron Bohmer, who have also recorded my music, and I'm excited to bring my 20 yrs of teaching experience to Berlin! I teach songwriting as well, if that is something you're interested in.

I'm a classically trained singer who performed with the San Francisco Opera and other companies both in opera and musical theatre for many years. Though I specialize now in musical theatre, I am happy and comfortable teaching you to sing in whatever style you prefer. The basics are the same! In our lessons, we will work on breath, correct vowel pronunciation, placement, diction, etc... as well as getting rid of the tension and habits that keep us from singing freely and beautifully. We will also work on the musical and dramatic aspects of the material we choose together, so that you will feel comfortable at an audition or a performance. And I keep lessons fun so that you can both learn and progress each week AND enjoy yourself!

Whether just starting out or a professional who needs help working on an audition or role, I can help you reach your goals!

🎶 Vocal Lessons Tailored for You 🎶

Singing lessons that fit your needs, just for you! We've got you covered, whether you're a seasoned vocalist or just starting out!
And guess what? Professional voice users like teachers, public speakers, and actors also benefit from the voice work! This can also be a wonderful space for artistic growth and self-expression for non-professional music lovers who are looking for ways to create art.

In our sessions, we want you to feel as independent as possible. We'll have fun learning theory, doing practical exercises, and listening actively together! Let me tell you a bit more about what we'll be doing. We'll be looking at things like voice physiology, breath control, resonance, and clear articulation.

Singing is a wonderful way to express yourself, and it's so important to remember to sing not just with your voice, but with your whole body too! And we love to focus on mindfulness and body awareness! You should feel as good as you sound, my friend!

We're here to help you learn and master whatever genre you love most, whether it's classical opera, pop, jazz, or rock.

It's about hitting the right notes, but it's also about finding your own special voice. And please don't worry if you hit a wrong note or two! We're here to help you learn and grow, and we know that making mistakes is part of the journey.

If you're looking to brush up on your listening skills and gain a deeper understanding of music theory, we've got your back! We can also help you perfect your vocal technique. Our lessons can also help you develop a wider range of musical skills, which we think you'll really enjoy! This includes active listening, which is a key part of our teaching philosophy. You'll learn to appreciate the finer details in music, from the rhythm of the bass to the emotional phrasings of the melody. Our approach is all about getting into the musical texture and feeling the emotional essence and complex layers of your favorite song so you can communicate and act your feelings.

🌟 Ready to start? Book your sessions now! 🌟

Remember, all music starts because someone has a story to tell. Your voice, your emotions, and your stories can come together in a powerful performance. It's your heart, your voice, and your narrative unfolding through music. Come as you are, with all your quirks, your laughter, your shyness, or your chatter. We're a community where every voice is honored. Let's get started on your journey!

Singing should be one thing above all: fun! My lessons focus on your personal development and your well-being. I tailor each lesson to your voice, your level, and your goals – whether it's just for fun, to prepare for performances, or for exams.

Together, we'll work on your singing and breathing technique and find the perfect place for your voice. You choose songs you'd like to sing—or I can help you find suitable pieces. Whether it's musicals, pop, rock, jazz, or soul—I'll accompany you in a wide variety of musical styles.

A typical lesson includes:
Warm-up: Relaxation and breathing exercises for a relaxed start
Voice training: Exercises through all registers (chest, mixed and head voice)
Song work: Interpretation and technical implementation of your desired song

The combination of technique and emotion is particularly important to me. We delve into the lyrics to find the right feeling for your interpretation – this will make your singing authentic and expressive.

Let's discover and develop your voice together! I look forward to hearing from you.

I look forward to meeting you,
Marco

Are you curious about learning the cello, or eager to expand your playing into new sonic territories? I’m Dalai, a Greek-Mongolian cellist, singer, and composer based between Berlin and Melbourne. I offer private lessons to students of all ages and levels — from children picking up their first string, to experienced players seeking creative growth.

🎻 What I Teach & How

Fundamental technique & musicality — proper posture, bowing, intonation, phrasing

Classical & contemporary repertoire — from Bach to modern works

Improvisation, composition & creative exploration — help you develop your own voice

Electric / effects / extended cello techniques — looping, pedals, sound design

Voice + cello integration, recording & performance coaching

Stage presence & confidence building — preparing for recitals, studio work, or collaborative projects

My lessons are highly individualized. I adapt to your pace, interests, and goals. I value curiosity and experimentation: we’ll combine structure with freedom so you can grow technically and artistically.

🌍 My Experience & Why I Teach

I studied Classical Cello with distinction in Athens and trained further with eminent teachers such as Dimitrios Gouzios, Catalin Ilea, and Lucio Amanti. Since relocating to Berlin in 2008, I’ve been immersed in experimental, free jazz, and contemporary music scenes.

I perform in projects like Black Veil and Antiqva, have composed for theater (including The Robbers at Meiningen National Theater), and worked in film & art productions collaborating with composers like Johnny Klimek and Mario Grigorov.

Teaching is a core part of my musical mission. I believe technique should serve expression — and that every student’s voice is unique. Whether your goal is mastery of classical works, sonic experimentation, or composing your own music, I aim to support your growth with clarity, empathy, and creative openness.
