Johanna pursues a career as a concert artist, she plays regularly in chamber music with her trio Hémisphères and as a soloist in various repertoires in France and Germany _Paris, Berlin, Rouen, Baden-Baden, Aix-en-Provence ...

I have over 12 years of teaching experience and I have been working as a Professional Pianist for 7 years now, in 8 different countries (Switzerland, Austria, Iceland, Spain, etc.) and on Luxury Cruise Ships (Worldwide).

I can show you how to have fun with the piano. If you're a beginner, I can take you right from step one and have you playing familiar songs by the 1st or 2nd lesson. If you already have some experience, I can add to it.

My main goal is to help you achieve your goals and prepare the best lesson for you!

I've been playing and studying piano since age 6 (over 25 years ago). I began with classical music, and later added Ragtime, Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock, and Chord theory.

I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Piano Performance, Classical Music (4 years). I have participated in numerous Piano Masterclasses in Europe, and I studied with great pianists. I still learn from different Highly Accomplished Musicians. I believe learning never stops.

I have much to share with my students.

TEACHING STYLE

I am a very patient teacher. I love teaching all ages. I don't teach everyone the same way. I tailor lessons according to individual goals and needs. I insist on the importance of technique and musicality.

I also guide all my students even outside of the teaching time, by responding to all their questions (music theory or technical) and sending them videos.

I teach how to prevent Piano Injuries by focusing on proper technique, posture, and practice habits.

My professional experience includes coaching students of all levels and ages. I successfully prepared the students for their Piano Exams, like ABRSM, Trinity Grade, from grades 1-8, with merits and distinctions, and more advanced exams as well (Performance Diplomas).

I teach for the Enjoyment of Music as well. I believe you can learn to play the piano at any age. My oldest student is over 75 years old, and my youngest one is 3 years old. They made great progress, and I am sure you could do the same.

I've never met anyone who didn't have musical abilities! You can be a serious or a recreational player. The only requirement is the willingness to spend some time at the piano.

I conduct my lessons using a combination of 4 cameras for optimum visibility, and a quality microphone which my students find very helpful. This allows them to see a very clear visual demonstration alongside my verbal explanation.

I can confidently say that Online Lessons are the same as In-Person Lessons.

CURRICULUM

I do not believe one method works for all students. I have used many different lesson books and resources over the years.

For beginners I like to use Alfred method books for basics concepts and for Classical and Jazz Piano technique I like to use ABRSM books (grade 1-8). If my student feels that they can learn better from another books, I am glad to adapt my teaching strategies to their needs.

Along with the lesson books below, I use a lot of supplemental materials based on the students' interests. I also aim to teach their favorite songs as soon as possible.

I like to clearly explain and demonstrate piano technique. In this way, the students are able to apply the information on similar passages from all genres of music.

Piano/Keyboard - Alfred , Hal Leonard, Abrsm Grade (1-8), Trinity Grade (1-8), Hanon etc.


REVIEWS from students:

Morganne a énormément aimé son cours avec vous, Gabriel. Elle a notamment apprécié que vous ayez pu l'aider à améliorer son jeu avec seulement quelques conseils. Elle a trouvé que les exercices de relaxation du poignet ainsi que les conseils pour utiliser davantage les bras l'ont beaucoup aidée à se détendre et à moins ressentir les tensions dans le poignet. Nous serons ravis de poursuivre notre collaboration avec vous dès votre retour d'Australie.
Cordialement, Morganne et ses parents. (5/5) Pascale from France | In-Person Lessons

Gabriel’s teaching style is really impressive, the flow and the content of every lessons are very good and he has 4 CAMERAS that shows his face, keyboard and his view on a sideways so any student can visualize the proper posture and a clear view of the movement of his arms and fingers as he teach. My daughter is only 7 years old and as you can imagine asking her to sit for 1 hour to learn piano is quite a challenge but Gabriel handles it pretty well, and he is understanding of my child’s playfulness during the class and he knows also when to remind her to focus. Gabriel has an impressive amount of patience and knowledge about piano that’s why my daughter Ameco is enjoying and learning so much from him. I’m very happy we found him. And he’s quite flexible on the changes of schedule just give him a heads-up and he’ll cancel or change the schedule. Looking forward to more piano classes with him.

I'm an architecture student and an 8th year long piano practiser. I begun taking piano lessons with Gabriel to brush up my skills and and to better understand music before pursuing a graduate degree into a French conservatory.

I warmly recommend Gabriel as a piano tutor to everyone willing to enrich his piano practice!

Hello,
I offer piano lessons adapted to the age, level and desires of each student.
My approach is attentive, caring and focused on autonomy so that the student progresses with pleasure and confidence.

Each lesson lasts 1 hour and is divided into two parts:

45 minutes of piano practice, to develop technique, interpretation and creativity.

15 minutes of applied music theory, directly linked to the pieces studied, to understand music in a simple and useful way.


I build the course according to your objectives (leisure, personal progress, exam preparation or simply the pleasure of playing).

The main thing for me: to pass on my passion for music and provide the necessary tools for everyone to become independent on the piano.

I have over 12 years of teaching experience and I have been working as a Professional Pianist for 7 years now, in 8 different countries (Switzerland, Austria, Iceland, Spain, etc.) and on Luxury Cruise Ships (Worldwide).

I can show you how to have fun with the piano. If you're a beginner, I can take you right from step one and have you playing familiar songs by the 1st or 2nd lesson. If you already have some experience, I can add to it.

My main goal is to help you achieve your goals and prepare the best lesson for you!

I've been playing and studying piano since age 6 (over 25 years ago). I began with classical music, and later added Ragtime, Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock, and Chord theory.

I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Piano Performance, Classical Music (4 years). I have participated in numerous Piano Masterclasses in Europe, and I studied with great pianists. I still learn from different Highly Accomplished Musicians. I believe learning never stops.

I have much to share with my students.

TEACHING STYLE

I am a very patient teacher. I love teaching all ages. I don't teach everyone the same way. I tailor lessons according to individual goals and needs. I insist on the importance of technique and musicality.

I also guide all my students even outside of the teaching time, by responding to all their questions (music theory or technical) and sending them videos.

I teach how to prevent Piano Injuries by focusing on proper technique, posture, and practice habits.

My professional experience includes coaching students of all levels and ages. I successfully prepared the students for their Piano Exams, like ABRSM, Trinity Grade, from grades 1-8, with merits and distinctions, and more advanced exams as well (Performance Diplomas).

I teach for the Enjoyment of Music as well. I believe you can learn to play the piano at any age. My oldest student is over 75 years old, and my youngest one is 3 years old. They made great progress, and I am sure you could do the same.

I've never met anyone who didn't have musical abilities! You can be a serious or a recreational player. The only requirement is the willingness to spend some time at the piano.

I conduct my lessons using a combination of 4 cameras for optimum visibility, and a quality microphone which my students find very helpful. This allows them to see a very clear visual demonstration alongside my verbal explanation.

I can confidently say that Online Lessons are the same as In-Person Lessons.

CURRICULUM

I do not believe one method works for all students. I have used many different lesson books and resources over the years.

For beginners I like to use Alfred method books for basics concepts and for Classical and Jazz Piano technique I like to use ABRSM books (grade 1-8). If my student feels that they can learn better from another books, I am glad to adapt my teaching strategies to their needs.

Along with the lesson books below, I use a lot of supplemental materials based on the students' interests. I also aim to teach their favorite songs as soon as possible.

I like to clearly explain and demonstrate piano technique. In this way, the students are able to apply the information on similar passages from all genres of music.

Piano/Keyboard - Alfred , Hal Leonard, Abrsm Grade (1-8), Trinity Grade (1-8), Hanon etc.


REVIEWS from students:

Morganne a énormément aimé son cours avec vous, Gabriel. Elle a notamment apprécié que vous ayez pu l'aider à améliorer son jeu avec seulement quelques conseils. Elle a trouvé que les exercices de relaxation du poignet ainsi que les conseils pour utiliser davantage les bras l'ont beaucoup aidée à se détendre et à moins ressentir les tensions dans le poignet. Nous serons ravis de poursuivre notre collaboration avec vous dès votre retour d'Australie.
Cordialement, Morganne et ses parents. (5/5) Pascale from France | In-Person Lessons

Gabriel teaches piano to our son and daughter more than 1 year now. He is clear in his indications, friendly and he really put his heart in what he's doing . He highly recommend him ! (5/5) . Marinela from Romania | Online Lessons

Gabriel’s teaching style is really impressive, the flow and the content of every lessons are very good and he has 4 CAMERAS that shows his face, keyboard and his view on a sideways so any student can visualize the proper posture and a clear view of the movement of his arms and fingers as he teach. My daughter is only 7 years old and as you can imagine asking her to sit for 1 hour to learn piano is quite a challenge but Gabriel handles it pretty well, and he is understanding of my child’s playfulness during the class and he knows also when to remind her to focus. Gabriel has an impressive amount of patience and knowledge about piano that’s why my daughter Ameco is enjoying and learning so much from him. I’m very happy we found him. And he’s quite flexible on the changes of schedule just give him a heads-up and he’ll cancel or change the schedule. Looking forward to more piano classes with him.

I'm an architecture student and an 8th year long piano practiser. I begun taking piano lessons with Gabriel to brush up my skills and and to better understand music before pursuing a graduate degree into a French conservatory. Since the very first piano class with Gabriel, I became very enthusiastic about practicing and due to his patience and clarity to explain musical phrases, theory and interpretation rules, I started to feel and to understand better what I was playing. I warmly recommend Gabriel as a piano tutor to everyone willing to enrich his piano practice! His international experience as a pianist brings to his teaching methods a lot of patience and adaptability. During the classes, he is able to adjust our lessons to the level of instruction to meet our goals, and this, always by providing a positive and inspiring environment! I highly trust Gabriel's teaching process! (5/5) Maria from Romania | In-Person Lessons

I started classes with Gabriel a few years back, while I was having a terrible corporation job that made me stressed out and unable to focus most times. He had so much patience, even when he had to repeat the same thing time and time again, he ́s extremely dedicated, very professional and very kind hearted and friendly. Highly recommended to anyone willing to learn a new skill or improve an existing one! (5/5) Ioana from Romania | In-Person Lessons

Do you want to learn piano? Looking for a patient, qualified and experienced piano teacher?

I aim to make learning piano as much fun as possible. The first lesson, especially for young children, can be exciting and scary which is why I focus on more fun methods to help them develop familiarity and get accustomed to playing the piano.

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

If you want to start your musical journey, join me for personalized and inspiring piano lessons.

I hope to teach you soon :-)

Passionate about music since I was always, I had the chance to build a rich and varied career which allows me today to offer you a complete and personalized teaching for more than 10 years.

🎼 My musical journey

After receiving a First Prize in Piano and a First Prize in Chamber Music, I completed my training with a specialization in musical pedagogy and performance. I currently work as an accompanist pianist at the Ballets de Monte-Carlo in their pedagogical section, where I also trained as a dance accompanist pianist.

This professional experience taught me the importance of listening, adaptation and musical complicity - qualities that I put at the service of my students.

**What I propose to you:**
- Caring and encouraging support
- Teaching methods adapted to your lifestyle
- Exploration of varied repertoires: classical, modern, chamber music
- An introduction to improvisation and harmony
- An opening to support if you are interested
- Flexible hours that fit your schedule

💫 For whom?

I welcome **children, adolescents and adults**:
- **Curious beginners** to discover their first chords
- **Experienced pianists** wishing to improve their technique
- **Chamber music lovers** wishing to explore this repertoire
- **Passionate about support** interested in this practice
- **Creatives** wishing to develop improvisation and harmony

🎵 My commitment

My goal is to share my passion for the piano with you in a relaxed and stimulating atmosphere. Drawing on my multidisciplinary experience, I will adapt to your expectations to make each lesson a moment of pleasure and progress.

Hello,
I offer piano lessons adapted to the age, level and desires of each student.
My approach is attentive, caring and focused on autonomy so that the student progresses with pleasure and confidence.

Each lesson lasts 1 hour and is divided into two parts:

45 minutes of piano practice, to develop technique, interpretation and creativity.

15 minutes of applied music theory, directly linked to the pieces studied, to understand music in a simple and useful way.


I build the course according to your objectives (leisure, personal progress, exam preparation or simply the pleasure of playing).

The main thing for me: to pass on my passion for music and provide the necessary tools for everyone to become independent on the piano.
