Folk or classical acoustic guitar.
The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.
For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (…).
For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (…).
Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:
-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.
Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.
THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Violin lessons for all Fr / Ang (solfeggio included).
As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.
As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.
Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.
In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

PLAY THE GUITAR AT 3 YEARS! Suzuki Method Guitar Class in Geneva
EVERY CHILD CAN! Learning to play the guitar according to the Suzuki method is more than just music! We learn by the approach of the "Mother Tongue", playing and having fun. Children - from the age of 3 - develop, among other things, listening, memory, musical sense, concentration, discipline, respect. Collective workshops stimulate learning, and children learn to play together.
The "Suzuki Triangle", teacher, parent, student, reinforces the parental-child bond. Parents learn with their child and participate in lessons.
Music theory is included in the lessons, in a fun way.
Professor graduated from the Conservatoire with honors, graduated from the Suzuki method in Turin.
Also available for adult classes!

Guitar, bass, piano and voice lessons at home
I have been teaching guitar for over 10 years to students of all ages and levels. I like to work on a register oriented on the tastes of the student to ensure his motivation, while giving him the best bases and technical elements necessary for his progress. I work on the practice of the instrument above all, with moments devoted to the development of the ear as well as a little musical theory. I teach the basics of music theory, and use tablatures (guitar reference system) for guitar and bass lessons. I spend a lot of time in the studio and unfortunately take few students, but I still have a few places left!
I also teach in english!

Louana
Beginners/Intermediate/advanced piano lessons / music theory - Adults
Hello,
My name is Louana, I am 29 years old and am currently a piano teacher for students ranging from 4 to 65 years old.
Indeed, I started very young music with first 2 years of rhythm then 5 years of Solfege Jacques-Dalcroze and finally 12 years of piano including 10 at the Conservatory of Music in Geneva. (each year of study being validated by exams & diplomas)
Today I continue to play for fun and give some of my time to teach a few students once a week.
Class sessions are generally 45 minutes to 1 hour as proposed by the Conservatory. I teach with my old scores which allows a gradual evolution step by step. Obviously, I remain attentive to everyone's wishes, but I particularly teach classical music because in my opinion, these are the best bases allowing you to play what you want.
I am obviously at your disposal for any further information or to arrange an interview at your convenience.
Best regards,
Louana

Piano and music theory/music theory lessons in Geneva by a qualified teacher
My piano lessons are aimed at beginners as well as more experienced students. We will start by defining together what your objectives are in order to find a pace of learning that suits you.
Pianist graduated from the Geneva-Neuchâtel High School of Music, I have always enjoyed teaching the piano in parallel with my studies and my concerts. As a teacher, I like to share with my students the desire to learn, the enthusiasm and the passion for music.
The choice of songs to learn is made according to your desires. Although classical music is my favorite field, I am open to all styles.
Whether through the discovery of works, the development of listening and the sense of rhythm,
reading scores, musical notation, piano arrangement or improvisation, I offer a varied and personalized teaching. I find it essential to transmit to my students a solid foundation of music, and not limit myself to only learning pieces from the score.
I also teach music theory, harmony, ear training, etc.
