👂 My motto for teaching music: Learn with your ear, before understanding it with your brain.

Music can be explained entirely from a theoretical point of view 🤯. But I'm convinced that the best approach is to feel and sing the music 🎤💖, before understanding and interpreting it theoretically.

I teach music theory intuitively 💫. More than just a way of reading sheet music, I can show you how to deconstruct a piece of music in any genre, how to interpret chords, and how to improvise simply and effectively.

I started teaching piano by chance – to refugees. That's when I realized how powerful music can be in supporting people. Over the years, teaching has become something I truly cherish. I continue to work as an artist, and music and art remain my greatest passions. But the moments I share with my students have become just as meaningful. I've been able to build connections with people in ways I never expected, and I see this work as a way to contribute to a better world.
Most of my students are adults. Some played as children and are starting again, others are complete beginners; some are advanced and want to delve deeper. In lessons, we work not only on technique but also on musical understanding: reading what's "in" the score, developing interpretation, and experiencing music as a living language—not just as dots on a piece of paper. I also enjoy teaching children and accompanying their growth over a longer period. Seeing how music supports their development always moves me deeply.
Come by and see if it's right for you. If you're curious, just write to me. For me, music is a tool for self-development and connection.


Portuguese

Come to the piano at the same time, with people in refuge. Percebi like a music pode ser poderosa para judar as pessoas. When you pass the old ones, you can see how valuable it is in depth. Continuo trabalhando as artista, e musica e arte seguem sendo minhas maiores paixões. These moments are very significant. Consegui criar conexões com as pessoas de um jeito que eu nunca imaginei, e vejo esse trabalho as uma forma de contribuir para um mundo melhor.
A maioria dos meus alunos é adultsa. Alguns tocaram when children and is voltando, outros são iniciantes do zero; Alguns are already advanced and have a professional background. Nas aulas, trabalhamos not apenas a técnica, mas também a compreensão musical: ler o que está “dentro” da partitura, desenvolver interpretação e live a música como uma linguagem viva — não apenas pontos no papel. Também gosto de ensinar crianças e acompanhar seu crescimento ao longo do tempo. Ver como a musica apoia or desenvolvimento delas é semper emociónante.
Venha experimentar e ver se faz sentido para você. If you are curious, this is what I want to say. Para mim, a music and a ferramenta de autodesenvolvimento e conexão.

🎸 Guitar & Ukulele Lessons – All Levels, All Styles 🎶


I’m a professional musician with over 20 years of experience, having been trained at the Escuela de Música Contemporánea in Buenos Aires and holding a Master's degree in Creative Production from Berlin. I offer guitar and ukulele lessons tailored to your musical taste and goals.

I offer personalized guitar and ukulele lessons for all ages, designed to help students truly connect with their instrument. My approach is based on learning repertoire that the student genuinely enjoys, while developing strong technique and music theory in a practical and musical way.

A key element of my teaching is improvisation, as it allows students to connect immediately with the language of music, build confidence, and express themselves freely from the very beginning.

I also incorporate breathing exercises into my lessons to help students relax, improve focus, and develop a deeper physical and musical connection with their instrument.

In addition to instrumental lessons, I offer early music education for children aged 3 to 5, focusing on musical initiation through rhythm, listening, movement, and play in a fun and nurturing environment.

Lessons are available in Spanish, English, French, and German, and are always adapted to each student’s age, level, goals, and musical interests.


🔹 Format: Online or in-person
🔹 Lesson type: Individual or group classes
🔹 All ages and skill levels welcome

My approach is warm, flexible, and student-centered: you’ll learn at your own pace, with lessons designed just for you — and most importantly, you'll enjoy the process.
