My teaching approach stems from a deep love of music, from transcribing solos and developing a personal style to composing and arranging for an instrumental album currently in production.

Alongside teaching, I continue to perform, record and actively work on my own musical projects, which ensures that teaching is rooted in real and living musical practice, and not in theory alone.

Salomon - Paris$58
$58A QUICK SUMMARY OF SOUND CULTURE: Learn in 1 Hour What I Learned in Several Months
Trusted teacher: You listen to music every day... but do you really understand what sound is, how it works, what it's made of, and how it has evolved throughout history? 🎯 Objective: I don't want to waste your time, so in just one hour, you'll discover everything I spent months learning about sound! You'll develop your sonic knowledge, understand sound in all its facets, ask all your questions, and leave with solid knowledge that you can immediately apply to your musical or personal journey. In my opinion, this introduction to sound culture is essential for any musician, composer, producer, or enthusiast who wants to master sound perfectly! My name is Salomon, and I've been a composer and producer for eight years. I studied at INA, worked at RMC and Abbey Road Studios, and produced music in many styles. I have a comprehensive skill set: computer music production, guitar, harmonica, and a very broad musical knowledge that I'd like to share. What you will learn and discover in 1 hour: * What sound actually is: vibrations, frequencies, amplitude, spectrum... explained simply * How our ear perceives and analyzes sounds (masking, pitch, timbre...) * The phenomena of sound through unexpected and fascinating facts * The impact of space, materials, and environment on sound * The concepts of sound perception and psychoacoustics * The history of sound: from its earliest explorations to the evolution of sound techniques Method: * The course is presented using a clear and structured PowerPoint presentation. * This is a time for discussion and questioning: your questions are at the heart of the course * In the end, you leave with: * the complete PDF support * all my sound resources for DAW * the possibility of contacting me at any time for your technical questions Send me a message so we can chat!

Baptiste - Paris$44
$44Passionate pianist teaches piano, harmony and improvisation. Method inspired by the conservatory and my personal experience.
Trusted teacher: Do you want to play Mozart, Debussy or Sofiane Pamart? Einaudi, Satie or Mendelsohn Bartholdy? Or improvise more freely? It's the same! To become a musician, it's good to know some fundamental basics that will allow you to become independent and approach the music that interests you with awareness. You have to work strategically, especially when you don't have hours a day to devote. The goal is for you to feel each week that you are better equipped than last week! And the body learns quickly if you feed it the right information. My teaching adapts to each person's desires, but I like to instill what I consider to be important foundations for the musician's autonomy, technically (posture, flexibility of the arm and wrist) and theoretically (reading and rhythm). I have a DEM in musical writing (writing in the style of so-called classical composers) from the CRR in Aubervilliers and I am currently studying towards a DEM in piano at the same conservatory. I also study jazz on my own and regularly improvise in a more free manner. Learning music can sometimes be laborious, which is why I like to insist on a clear work strategy by leaving the student with a clear and achievable mission each week. Let's continue to love music and understand it better!

Yantong
rating star
rating green star
First, she is an excellent musician. Second she is a patient, and an understanding teacher, who by nature is going to try to do her best to help you out. You feel confident with her and you know you are not going to be humiliated and belittled. She is there to support you. After two years of learning music with Pr Yantong Lin, I can hardly imagine how much she "enriched my life". She made me discover the beauty and subtlety of the music.She made me think musically and not just play notes, and made me discover the "intellectual fondation and beauty of music" that is harmony. A new undiscovered world has been opened wide in front of me! Thank you Pr Yantong for your musical and teaching talents. Professeur à absolument découvrir et suivre!

Ester
rating star
rating green star
My private violin lesson with Ester was absolutely perfect. I had a privilege to hear Ester play her violin and she is so good- it is crazy to think I was able to learn from her. She is also such a good teacher. Full of knowlege and patience- which is, in my opinion, a rare combination. I had no prior musical education and this was my first real music lesson. Ester managed to teach me basic note reading, correct violin holding and even playing my first tunes. Her explainations are very clear and easy to understand. And her approach is very friendly. She is also a very nice person and easy to talk to. I wish we lived in the same city so I could keep studying playing violin with Ester- that's how good she is. Lidia

Bass & Music theory lessons (harmony, rhythm, composition, etc.) by a qualified teacher (Ivry-sur-Seine)
Christophe
rating star
rating green star
I'm really glad that I can take bass lessons from Christophe, as a professional bass player, he has really good skills and can adapt easily according to students' levels and preferences. Also, he is really responsible, and he sent the course notes to me very promptly after each lesson, which helped me to memorize better. For questions that I may have about bass, he is also quite responsive, through which I've learnt a lot. I strongly recommend Christophe, for his profession, friendliness, as well as patience and responsibility. And I'm also sure that he will be a good tutor and friend as well in your bass journey.
