Private music theory lessons by professional singer qualified in music theory and piano

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I introduce myself:
Classical singer, professional soloist, good level pianist,
graduated from conservatories
- from Toulouse: 1st prize for singing / 2nd prize for music theory and sight reading
- from Paris (CNSM) Certificates of musical and vocal culture and piano - singers

On the sidelines, then after a career as a lyrical artist in Paris (Opéra Comique/Théâtre Mogador/Espace Cardin, in the RTLN theaters (including Capitole de Toulouse) and abroad (Switzerland/Belgium/Mauritius) I I have been focused on teaching (singing, beginner piano, music theory) for around 25 years.
Experience with children / adults, amateurs / professionals, singers / instrumentalists
I teach traditional music theory which differs from FM (Musical Training), I briefly explain here the differences, the interest and the advantages.
It is based on tonal music, the progressive study of tones and not intervals outside tonal context.
It recommends the separate acquisition of its various components: rhythm, reading notes, intonation
it results in these well-integrated bases, sung sight reading and written dictation

Why work on music theory as a subject in its own right?
Because, in a course "piano / violin / vocals / clarinet ... + music theory", and as I myself have experienced, the pupil and the teacher, accomplices, always favor the instrument and the learning music theory is done in homeopathic doses. The study of the instrument is nevertheless also slowed down because of the multiple interruptions caused by ignorance of music theory.
I am not suggesting that you "get rid" of music theory because its study, contrary to its reputation, is very interesting. But to diversify the difficulties that you encounter: those relating to the instrumental technique and those due to music theory.

I accompany you on the piano and introduce you to the keyboard. A mini-keyboard allows you to work on your intonation at home also following my instructions.
If the level allows it, I also do instrumental and vocal music theory: music theory applied to the study of your pieces, analyzed, deciphered and accompanied on the piano.
Levels: for more precision, up to level "medium 2"
I recommend a weekly frequency (except possibly school holidays), essential for the effectiveness of the course, as well as a minimum personal work at home.

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
During my career as a lyrical artist I started to teach singing, piano (beginners) and music theory in private lessons.
I of course developed this activity after the end of my official career. (I remain active as a singer, however, outside of the big stages ...)
I had great encounters while carrying out this activity, some students having stayed with me for many years.
The teaching that I offer is not "fun", I ask for regularity, concentration, availability of a minimum of working time at home in addition to the course. All this does not prevent good humor and cheerfulness. I am both very demanding and infinitely patient. Are you wrong? ... that's what you are here for, this is how you learn, so don't apologize!

Very good teacher, patient, and encouraging!

Very good impression at the first lesson. Experienced teacher who adapts to the level and needs of the student. I recommend.
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
I offer singing lessons to students from beginner to initiated levels. My classes are centered on the work of the voice, the formation of the instrument. The work of the repertoire will only be approached very gradually. Even if you are not attracted by the lyrical repertoire, the discovery of your new vocal possibilities will open up unsuspected horizons for you, both to sing what you like and to gain confidence on a general level. If you are attracted to lyrical singing, you will begin in the best conditions. "Chi va piano va sano." You can read my profile on this site and also listen to me on YouTube (Fiorella tune, Offenbach's "les Brigands"). Why choose me as a teacher? I am a real pro. I have stage experience and teaching experience. I follow you in music theory and accompany you, you do not need to go to other teachers to complete your teaching. And finally I am very patient and not intimidating. I know that singing is a very intimate process!

Solfege and Music Theory Classes for Beginners and more
In this lesson, music knowledge is not a pre-requisite. Here, you will discover music theory and solfege, alongside general music - the understanding of the history and significance of music to humanity. Students have the option of standard British/ American theory (classic/jazz) or French theory/Ecriture system. From note reading to harmonization, graded syllabus (E.g ABRSM) or just to explore, lessons will be specially catered to your needs. Being able to analyze what you see will definitely greatly improve your own instrument's progress! Solfege, or solfeggio training is a specialized aural training. It can be taught in either fixed or movable do to train for strong relative pitch and rhythm stability, allowing students to 'hear' the music just by looking at the notes. This is especially useful for mastering sight-reading, transcribing and playing by ear! Adding on, the ability to analyze by ear will open your world to the music you may have not noticed before.

J'adore enseigner et je crois que sais trouver parfaitement les méthodes de travail qui correspondent à chaque élève pour que chacun apprenne de la façon la plus efficace possible.

Private lessons in piano and music theory for beginners and intermediates
Being a graduate of the Conservatory, I acquired a very rigorous apprenticeship in music. Today, private lessons allow me to share my knowledge and pass it on. Music is learning, but it's also a pleasure. For an optimal learning, I adapt as much as possible to the capacities of the pupil in order to be able to make him progress as well as possible, and that he thus learns the music and allow him to like to play and to make music. Private lessons in piano and music theory require step-by-step learning, with regular work, which I take the time to do during the course, and which in this sense will have to be continued on the other days of the week, for a real evolution, for a beginner as for someone who has a good basis.

Apollonia Maria
Beginner to Advanced Lessons for Guitar Players for all ages
After dedicating 14 years to mastering the guitar, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of guitar playing, encompassing both foundational techniques and advanced music theory. In these lessons, I'll be sharing the wealth of knowledge I've accumulated over this extensive period of learning. I will be covering a broad range of guitar techniques, including fingerpicking, strumming techniques, major and minor chords, power chords, barre chords, riffs, scales, finger warm-ups, practising any song of your choice, string bending, pull-offs, hammer-ons, harmonics, strumming patterns, and slides. All are provided with diagrams etc. For music theory, I will begin by covering the fundamentals, including notes, strings, and the musical 12-note chromatic scale alphabet on the guitar. As students progress, we will delve into more advanced topics such as tones, semitones, chord progressions, circle of fifths, scale formulas and chord terminology. Additionally, we will explore concepts like consonance and dissonance and pitch practice to develop relative pitch. (You have to be born with perfect pitch but you can learn relative pitch with practise!) Then advancing to jazz theory, we'll explore; jazz scale formulas, jazz chord progressions, swing techniques, major and minor 7th chords, major and minor 9th chords, dominant, augmented, half-diminished, diminished, sus2 and sus4 chords. And then jazz scales and the art of re-harmonising a song (changing the chords to jazz chords). All music theory will be intertwined with guitar practice as both can't be done without the other! One observation I've made while learning guitar through lessons is that information is often doled out incrementally, making it feel like a breadcrumb trail. Guitar knowledge and skills seem to be closely guarded and usually gatekept unless actively sought out. I strongly believe that the extensive knowledge I've acquired over 14 years of playing should be fruitfully shared in a more comprehensive and accessible manner, of course while being tailored to the pace of the students. In essence, I'm convinced that the depth of my understanding I've gained could be effectively conveyed and learnt within a two-year timeframe without including the time it takes to master the skill with practice, of course, I'd like to make it easier for people to learn the guitar and the theory behind it. I have also graduated with a distinction for my Music Performance and Production UAL Level 3 Course and have experience teaching guitar in London and Bristol before. The lessons will be taught in English so practising your English with me is also a plus, a foundational knowledge of English is required to take the lessons.
