    Music Tuition from an Industry Professional. 10,000,000+ streams, 1,000+ shows.

    I am a singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose music has been featured in publications such as The Huffington Post, BBC and WRAL. I have written and co-written songs that have accumulated tens of millions of streams.

    I am represented by Kobalt/AWAL (Lauv, Bruno Major, Tom Misch), Maximal Music Sync (Candi Staton, North Star Media), Music Table South Korea, and Sixtyfour Music London and have co-written with Richard Walters (Declan J Donovan, 3lau, Alison Moyet, Grey's Anatomy, CSI) and breakout Dutch artist Judy Blank.

    Alongside releasing my own material, I am also a session pianist, writer and guitar player who has worked for many clients in studios both in Europe and the States, as well as on tours worldwide including major festival slots and tours in the UK, Europe and the States.

    ----------

    I primarily am interested in teaching people to develop their own sense of artistic identity, and am keen to mentor pupils who are already making headway in their own progress as a musician or in the music industry.

    I am able to offer key insights into the industry that many other teachers aren't able to, and I am passionate about people who are passionate about music.

    I consider my experience incredibly valuable to those serious about making headway in the industry and see my classes to be more of a personal and bespoke teaching service than traditional piano/guitar lessons, and have a slightly higher price point accordingly.

    I have also achieved Grade 8 (ABRSM) in piano.

    I am moving back to Vienna in April, and will be taking on students from mid-April onwards.

    ----------

    I have been tutoring for the past 6 years, and have had pupils of all skill levels and ages. I have taken pupils through traditional grading in the UK (both ABRSM and Rockschool) and also taught people who are only interested in learning an instrument vocationally.

    Over these years I have helped pupils develop proficiency and passion in piano, guitar, songwriting, production, as well as offering advice on booking tours, forming bands, and helping develop a sense of musical identity.

    ----------

    My approach to each client is unique, but I primarily focus on encouraging artistic expression and open communication in my sessions.

    I value the ability to give others the opportunity to create, and I like to treat my lessons as a safe space for ideas, for singing, for performing, and for chatting about all things musical.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Tara
    Pianist and Singer at MUK offers Piano and Solfeggio lessons
    Advanced level pianist and student singer at the Musik und Kunst Privatuniversität der Stadt Wien, I offer private piano lessons (classical training only, musical training included). Having a dual training, it seems interesting to me to follow the musical instinct and sensitivity acquired in singing, on the piano. I therefore take advantage of my skills in these two specialties which complement each other wonderfully, in order to enrich and develop musicality and the quality of the ear. There are no students. Only musicians! Finally, and the technical part being of course essential, I therefore apply the basics of pianistic technique, using the method from Russian pedagogy, teaching with a prestigious and international reputation.

In 2012 I started studying at Busan High School of Arts. I graduated from this course when I was 19, and then went on to study at Chugye Art University in Seoul. There I had the opportunity to learn a lot and to play with different musicians. I am currently attending the Franz Schubert Conservatory for a Master of Music. I'm studying piano there. While learning to play the piano, I have taught diverse students with different musical experiences. I could see a lot of improvement besides that. I still want to teach more students for your fun, aim, study and achieve well enough. I would be very happy if I could teach many students with my knowledge of music.

    Conservatory instrumental pedagogy and also concert subject student is looking for students.
    Dear future student, I wish you much success. I have been playing the piano for 13 years. I believe that for good practice you have to master the theory. Children learn best through play, while adults learn best through example.

    Guitar and Music theory lessons. Electric acoustic and classical guitar, improvisation, metal, jazz, pop, funk!
    Hello! My name is Matei, I am 20 years old, I have been studying guitar for over a decade and I have 5 years of experience in the teaching domain. I am currently studying jazz at the Vienna Music Institute (Conservatory of Contemporary Music). I have studied classical guitar for 5 years, electric guitar for another 5 years, and jazz guitar for a year and a half. I can teach you music theory concepts ranging from fundamentals like chords, intervals, scales, and arpeggios to the more advanced: circle of fifths, modes, tensions, and triads. Regarding the technical aspect of guitar playing, I can create a good practice routine for the improvement of different styles of playing such as alternate picking, fingerpicking, legato, taping, hybrid picking, economy picking, etc. Although these concepts may sound frightening at first, I can help you understand them more easily. The lessons are thought to be suitable for beginners who never picked up a guitar before, intermediate players who know some songs and fundamentals but don't know what to do next, and advanced players who want to deepen their skills. I can also help you build a good foundation for improvising over any tune you like, help you master composition, and teach you music-making and recording programs such as Reaper, to be able to start your solo projects. I will provide my personal insights regarding what I think you should improve, but I can also just help you learn something specific like a song you want to play.
