My name is Alessandro, i am an Italian musician and guitarist.

I have been playing guitar for 20 years, and i am in the music business for about 5 years.

I studied music in London, where I got a Bachelor Degree from the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance, and privately with people like Phil Capone, Hugh Burns, Martin Goulding, Tolis Zavaliaris, Lee Hodgson and many others.

In the last 7 years i have been touring and recording around the world with the artist Theodore.

Some of the places where i recorded include Abbey Road Studios, Church Studios (London), Clouds Hill studios (Hamburg), and i played on stages around Europe, Canada, U.S.A.

I have skills in guitar performance, Theory, arranging, composition in different style of music such as Jazz, Classical and Pop (Reggae, Funk, R&B, Metal, Fusion, Blues etc.)

My objective is to teach you how to play and experience music in the purest form and to be as creative as possible.

Being a music tutor for more than a decade and having working experience in different countries, gave me the opportunity to develop my teaching skills so that I can customize the lessons according to each individual's special needs. I have an in deep knowledge of the most popular exam systems and syllabus (ABRSM, Trinity & Suzuki). I always try to find the perfect balance between fun and discipline, I try to create strong relationships with my students. I do my best to share my love for l music. I devote my energy to my students with consistency, punctuality and passion!

Welcome to my online Piano Class.
I am Maria, and I will happily help you achieve your musical goals, from zero to the top.
I love all student levels, but only towards the CLASSICAL piano, of any eras' works and composers.
Don't be afraid, my lesson is human-friendly 😊
Everything goes step by step! Outside the lesson time, I send you lots of short videos to support your practice through the week.

As each student is different, I focus on each ones' needs and I am always creative in helping you learn through the simplest ways - "if it's easy, it's correct", that's my motto!
My greatest happiness is to watch my students grow, overcome any limit and expand in full potential!

As a result, many of my students have won top prizes at major international competitions, as the IBLA Grand Prize, the Spoleto International Piano Competition, the Bach au Jazz (Lilia Boyadjieva) International Piano Competition and many others. And also, at renown online competitions, as The Royal, the IYMC, the Forte Academy, and many-many others.
So, in case you need a competition or exam preparation, here you are at the right place!
I will help you discover the advanced piano technique, and the ways to achieve your best musical interpretation. Also, very important, I'll help you understand and approach each composers' unique style, and, also, secure your concert / stage presence, with simple and effective solutions for memorisation and control.

I am a very proud piano teacher, as on Jan 11 2026 four young students of mine were awarded by the renown American Competition "The Royal Foundation" and were invited and performed at a Gala at the Carnegie Hall in New York City! Also, these kids were invited to participate to the Juilliard School festival, with masterclass and lessons, a fabulous chance and experience that I wish all young pianists could have!

On Sept 1st 2024 three awarded students of mine were invited to perform at The DiMenna Classical Centre of Music in Manhattan, from another American competition, the International Youth Music Competition.

I wish I can always bring such great opportunities and successes to all of my "piano kids"!

I offer this course for all levels and all ages! My aim is to help beginners discover and learn the rudiments of musical training, to deepen their knowledge of it for those who are initiated and to perfect it for those who are more advanced, according to the wishes of the student.

I am a trained classical singer from Berlin, but I would like to install myself in Athens. In class, we will build your vocal technique with which you can sing about anything you'd like. As a yoga teacher, I focus on a holistic approach to singing using also yogic tools to improve technique and performance. In the second half of class, we will build a repertoire that you'd like to sing and implement the technique into it.

Besides singing I play the violin and piano. I can teach them up to an intermediate level.

I have 5 years of experience with all three subjects. Privately and in a music school located in Berlin

Dive into the world of piano mastery with Kosmas, a renowned pedagogue, esteemed competitions juror, and prolific recording artist.

With a remarkable teaching career spanning three decades, award-winning teaching and recording artist Kosmas has nurtured the talents of over 800 students, instilling in them a deep love for music and a commitment to artistic excellence.

Mike Schofield, music producer

My name is Ismini. I am a music teacher with spesialization in Music theory, solfege, ear training and piano.
I have studied music composition and I'm an active composer and music teacher for the past years.
I have expirence in teaching. I am currently teaching n various music schools in Athens - Greece

I am a guitarist based in Athens with extensive experience into one to one guitar lessons,
I have been living in London for 15 years working there as a full time musician where I had the chance to tour the world and sharp my guitar and performing skills next to the best.
I have extensive experience working in acclaimed London Music schools and after school guitar academies ,
I have been teaching grades but also developing personal programs according to the needs of each client .
My students rate from beginners to advanced , all ages welcome .

The older I get, the more I love. Especially during these times of immense ugliness and hate, wars and conflict, music- that's always been all about love - is the home I keep returning to. To me, mentoring someone is all about sharing the love for the instrument, thirst about the material, desire to explore new musical paths and respect for whatever happens whilst playing.

Not only we will explore technical paths and understand rhythm under a totally different light but also communicate through improvisation and modal principles. My goal is for you to love the instrument a bit more, music a bit more and as Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said "Perhaps love is the process of my leading you gently back to yourself".
So let's explore together the painstakingly beautiful process of music through the inner child.
