Even if you have no musical knowledge, develop your talents and learn quickly thanks to a modern, simple and effective methodology that integrates theoretical knowledge and practical development in tailor-made courses adapted to your objectives.

With years of experience in video lessons (viola, violin, piano, etc.) and more than 200 satisfied students, I'm here for you who have no time to waste.

Graduated from the CNR and the CNSMD in viola, violin, piano, chamber music, musical training, analysis, history of music and fundamental pedagogy, I acquired extensive experience within orchestras such as the National Opera of Paris or the Orchester National du Capitole de Toulouse. I also have a good knowledge of the jazz scene and current music (Jazz in Marciac, France Television, American Public Television...) in major concert halls around the world and the main international festivals.

As an experienced teacher, I have been teaching and supporting all types of students for fourteen years: Conservatories, music schools, private lessons, juries, master classes....

Rich, intense, interesting, Charles manages to make music theory lessons for adults (novice and distance learning in my case!) captivating. Thank you and well done.

If your child does not like mathematics or has difficulty, this may be due to a learning method that is unsuited to his psycho-cognitive profile. I offer a simple and personalized pedagogical approach that will allow him to easily understand and shed light on the still obscure and locked areas of his natural analytical skills. With fifteen years of teaching experience, as well as a solid knowledge of psychology and fundamental pedagogy, I am able to quickly detect the factors limiting students' abilities and provide them with the tools and methods necessary to find confidence and motivation, even in the most difficult cases. I specialized in supporting primary and secondary school students. In parallel with my tutoring classes, I also practice and teach violin, piano and music theory. The requirements and analytical skills necessary for musical practice are similar to those required for success in science and mathematics in particular. Albert Einstein himself was a talented violinist. Holder of a license and a diploma at Master II level, I also hold two baccalaureates: a technical baccalaureate in music and a scientific baccalaureate (with honors and very good). During the mathematics specialty test, I obtained a mark of 21/20. Why did the proofreader decide to give me a grade higher than 20/20? Because he judged that my qualities of editorial clarity, presentation and demonstrative rigor were of a university level, which can be explained by the fact that I had already studied the program of preparatory classes for the Grandes Ecoles. My work was therefore considered more deserving than the few other 20/20 graded copies in which there were no errors. Give your child the opportunity to highlight the qualities he already has in order to regain the positive appreciation of his teachers, to develop his full potential and to open the doors himself to a future he deserves. Looking forward to sharing a first lesson together! Charles

Cathy
Flute and Piccolo lessons by Cathy Tsang's Flute Studio
Cathy started her music teaching career in 2015, and has been teaching students from beginner to grade 8, aged from 6 to 35 years old. She always welcomes students who wish to explore more about music, building up playing the flute as their hobby, as well as growing together with them as their role models. She feels very glad and blessed to be the teacher of her students, as well as being their sister, witnessing their growth and becoming a good friend to them. In the lesson, she would always love to play studies, and exercise, as well as play flute pieces and duets together with the students. To broaden their horizons, she would love to share different music recordings, as well as discuss the music together during the lesson. Cathy believes that it is essential for students to step out of the classroom to learn music, rather than just playing the flute. During years of teaching, she has encountered students taking different examination grades. Cathy understands the importance of choosing the pieces for students, she would love to demonstrate pieces and discuss the preferences with the students together. As the mode of having examinations has varied these years, she has already adapted to preparing students for the exams under different situations. Gladly, most of her students could attain merit or even distinction under her tutelage.

Toby
Viola lessons, intermediate - advanced (in English, German or Russian)
I am a professional violin and viola teacher based in Zurich, teaching in person at students' location or online, in English, German or Russian. (Reviews below) As well as instrumental teaching and ensemble coaching of at all levels over the last 12 years, I’ve led numerous professional workshops, including ‘Music First’ and ‘Music Masters’ workshops in London and was an assistant on the Primary Arpeggione viola course and at the Springgrove music competition. As a member of the European String Teachers’ Association, I participated in their conferences across Europe. I have prepared students for music exams at all levels, working with them on music theory, aural and sight reading skills, and regularly accompany students on the piano. I perform internationally as a soloist and chamber musician, recently including at the Victoria Hall in Geneva, Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg and Philharmonie in Berlin. I’m a Tillett Trust and Villa Musica artist, winner of the Małopolska competition, Barbirolli Prize at the Lionel Tertis International Viola Competition and Len Lickorish Memorial Prize at the Royal Overseas League International Strings Competition. I hold a masters degree with first class honours from the class of Tabea Zimmermann at the Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin, and Bachelors with the same distinction from the Royal Academy of Music in London. * Reviews * Stephanie W. Toby is an outstanding instructor and works with children very naturally. My 11 year old son has been taking lessons with Toby for over two months and is eager for each lesson. Toby is extremely talented, but beyond that, he engages my son deeply with the music itself, fundamental techniques, music theory, and even the interpretation of the music. Toby is kind, encouraging, and works with students at a level that is appropriate. He has allowed my son to chose music that if fun and interesting to practice, even though the pieces are challenging. In fact, I often sit in to listen to the lessons, as they are so good. My son has had a couple of lessons with Toby while company has been over, and everyone has commented on how amazing Toby is as an instructor. I can not recommend Toby enough and hope to continue lessons with him for a long time. Pamela B. Toby is really a great teacher who teaches the pieces well and brings out more of the feeling in the playing. We particularly liked that. Good technique is one thing, but feeling the music is such an important element in music and learning a piece of music. He also teaches theory very well! Tatyana M. Toby is a fantastic teacher. He is very reliable as he is consistently organised and punctual. I constantly see progress in my child’s music skills because every lesson Toby delivers is effective and well-structured. I highly recommend him to all who wish to learn or improve on their music skills. Shaun W. Knowledgeable and frank, Toby was able to provide me with crucial information quickly and efficiently. Hanna S. Toby can explain things very well and understandably, is patient and friendly and easily adapts to the student's level. Jacques R. Toby is an excellent tutor with top teaching skills..he teaches music theory in a way my 12 year old son understands the lesson easily; Toby is very attentive

Maximiliane
Violin lessons online for Beginners/ Advanced / Aspiring violinists
I am currently an intern at the Rheinische Philharmonie State Orchestra. I also perform as a soloist and as a chamber musician. Most recently with the Vratz Symphony Orchestra. I lectured at a music school in Düsseldorf and Velbert and also teach in Essen. I have been awarded first prizes at international competitions several times and regularly perform in classical and jazz/pop formations. Beginners, advanced violinists and aspiring violin students are in good hands with me. All aspects of violin playing such as technique, intonation, register playing, vibrato etc. including compositions from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries are integrated as well as modern styles from the 20th or 21st centuries. Playing the violin should be fun for my students, so in addition to the technique of playing, musical expression is also taught with this versatile instrument. I approach my younger students with creativity and empathy. Ambitious students learn the classical and romantic violin literature required for their studies. If desired, the students can take part in competitions such as “Jugend musiziert”, auditions or Prepared entrance exams at German music universities. I look forward to your inquiry! Lessons are possible in German, English and French.
