Piano, Music Theory, Technical Skills, Reading Music

I will encourage you to get clear goals, support you in finding a good practice rhythm. We will decide together what pieces you can approach, depending on your tastes and your skills. I will teach you music theory and you might need to prepare a homework for each lesson. My goal is making you to be able to learn and play a piece by yourself in the shortest time possible.
I gladly teach beginners and advanced, students preparing for auditioning to conservatoire are welcome as well.
I teach on a grand piano (Ixelles) or I can come to your place (we need to discuss it).

I am a concert pianist, I've got my first diploma in Romania. I studied also in Austria (Salzburg) and in Switzerland (Zürich). I play in different chamber music groups, I accompany and I teach piano.

About Me

I love to teach motivated students. For me it is not very important if they have already knowledge or developed skills on the piano. I appreciate the desire to evolve and grow, more than anything else. I am a friendly and patient teacher and I don't like to put my students under stress or pressure. As a teacher it is important to guide the student, to help him/her find an own way. My goal is to make the student independent.

Chamber music and accompaniment Master Degree - ZHdK, Zürich

I am a concert pianist graduated in piano and pedagogy at the Zurich Conservatory. I am not only passionate about music but also about the teaching I have for vocation. I teach at all levels and ages and all styles of music. I do not rely on a single method but on several methodological works. This allows me to offer students a wider variety of songs, especially for beginner levels, and to choose the most appropriate piece that will improve the student's progress. I take into consideration the musical tastes of my students and arrange their favorite songs so that they are accessible to them. Music is and must remain a pleasure. The solfège is only approached when necessary but it is possible to deepen it if the pupil wishes it.

Yoana
Piano Lessons / Music Theory for All Levels and All Ages
Looking for a new hobby? Did you always want to learn piano but never took the time? Or have you played before and want to refresh your skills? It's never too late to follow your dreams ;) I would be happy to explore the world of music with you!

Chiara
Violon, musique - French, English, Italian, Spanish
In my classes I aim to transmit first of all my passion and love for music. I like to prepare a personalized programme adapted to the level and exigencies of each pupil. I also aim to include some violin duos, to be played with me during the lessons, as I believe playing with other musicians is one of the best ways to enjoy music and learn useful musical and technical skills at the same time. Another essential factor in my classes is correct and natural posture while playing, to let music heal our souls instead of hurting our bodies! ;) I have been practicing Yoga for a few years, and have experienced the importance of good posture and targeted light stretching, especially for younger players in a phase of growth and change. I like to help pupils to develop good technical skills in a fun way, always applying technique to targeted repertoire and keeping in mind that technique is nothing but a means of expressing ourselves through music. I give lessons in English, French, Italian and Spanish.

Offering Music Theory Lessons, alongside Drums class!
My course is based first on you. I like developing with you a program adapted to your facilities, your difficulties as well as your goal. It is aimed at everyone, children and adults, complete beginners and more experienced musicians looking for advice, a method or outside advice. Autonomy, creativity, curiosity and listening are the main 4 words for me! I can teach you drums in many styles (rock, funk, jazz, shuffle, pop, linear, world music, songs on demand) and in its many forms AND of course music theory, which can be integrated into the course if necessary, but also be the subject of a private lesson for students who wish support for their courses in an academy or at the Conservatory. This will help you for sure to reading scores, as well as sight reading.

Sara
Piano lessons given by concert pianist with four postgraduate diplomas
Being naturally very skilled in sight-reading of music scores, I've realized numerous times how helpful and enjoyable can be to posses that "gift". Now, after many years of experience in teaching at different levels and aspirations of students, I can surely say that, despite their different ambitions in playing piano, all of them were very keen in learning how to be better in reading completely new and unknown music to them. Currently, I'm developing an approach which could efficiently help one in understanding better the composition seen for the first time, through "scanning" analysis and use of logical patterns while getting to know basis of classical harmony. I'm a concert pianist with rich performing experience on worldwide stages, 1st prize winner of more then 30 international piano competitions in Europe and USA, holding Master degree, as well as two different Postgraduate degrees and two different Concert musician diplomas in special program for gifted concert artists at Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.

Guitar lessons (also by WEBCAM), harmony, improvisation ...
Hello everyone ! I am 39 years old, I am a professional guitarist and graduate composer. My rich and varied musical journey, going from "Art Rock" to Classic, passing by French song and currently jazz allowed me to acquire a beautiful experience that I like to share with my students. Obviously passionate about my favorite instrument, I am just as passionate about music theory. From baroque counterpoint to jazz harmony, from classical orchestration to digital music publishing, I have always thought that understanding the sound universe multiplies perspectives, opens up new horizons! My method is simple and has always proven to be effective: working in symbiosis with pure instrumental technique and the general understanding of music, its cogs which seem to the novice musician so mysterious. In addition to basic instrument learning, I also teach: 🎸️ Experimental instrumental techniques 🎸️ Work of virtuosity 🎸️ Picking game 🎤️ How to go well with singing 🎵️ Arrangement 🎵️ Composition 🎵️ Harmony (classical or jazz) 🎵️ Improvisation 💻️ MAO (Computer Aided Music) Exploring musical styles: #Pop #EXP #Classique #Electro #Jazz #Jazz Manouche #Art & Hard Rock #Chanson Française #Blues #Funk (60's / 70's) 🎥️ Possibility of lessons by webcam ️🇬🇧️ I also speak English 🏡️ I give lessons mainly at my home: Châtelain district in Ixelles, many transport nearby: 🚊️ bus (54), tram (92, 94, 81.) and metro (Louise). 🐸️ GREAT BEGINNERS welcome! (no prior knowledge necessary) See you soon !

Piano Lessons for beginner and intermediate level students
Are you willing to learn how to play the piano? In this class, you can learn how to play this incredible instrument, as well as develop music theory knowledge such as reading scores, basic harmony, and rhythm. You will also learn how to develop your own musical ideas and find a personal way to express them! Students of all ages can contact me to follow private lessons live in Brussels or Antwerp or online (via Zoom). I am a classical/jazz-trained pianist and composer who graduated "magna cum laude" with a Master's degree in Composition at the Royale Conservatoire of Antwerp. As a pianist and music teacher, I have several years of experience in private and public schools in Italy and I'm now teaching at the Royale Conservatoire of Antwerp. I am familiar with the classical and jazz repertoire as well as with 20th and 21st-century music. I'm passionate about introducing this beautiful and exciting field of art and its related knowledge. If you don't have any music experience or if you already know music and want to develop or study a particular argument, my classes focus on the construction of a personalized study trajectory and methods based on the level, interests, and expectations of the student! The most important thing for me is to keep creativity and interest always stimulated for you to develop or continue to grow your love for music!
