Lyric singer of Colombian origin, I seek to help you discover the unique possibilities of your voice. Graduated from the Haute Ecole de Musique in Geneva and holder of a Masters in Interpretation with "congratulations" from the Haute Ecole des Arts de Berne (HKB).

I am completely passionate about opera and chamber music but also a versatile singer who loves, sings and teaches pop and variety music.

Soloist in various artistic projects and training, I also wish to transmit to you the pleasure of music and its benefits on the body, state of mind and health. I would like to help you express your emotions and feelings in a free and healthy way by learning some technical tools that will allow you to keep your vocal apparatus healthy. Among these technical tools, posture, breathing and flexibility are, in my opinion, the main pillars of a good singing technique.

Classes can be given at the student's home or in Bern in French, German, English or Spanish.

Discover the joy of singing!
Singing makes you happy and satisfied, correct singing even more.
With me you will get to know your voice, improve your musical knowledge and sing whatever you always wanted to sing but didn't dare to (be it a pop song from the radio or a classic aria).
I, an opera singer trained in Switzerland and Ukraine, offer competent singing lessons with a focus on "building and developing the voice".

Electric guitar is probably one of the most versatile instruments.
There are numerous styles, techniques, so everyone can find something for themselves.
The class will include basics like chords, arpeggios, songs, and advanced studies such as licks, riffs, exercises for better techniques in sweep picking, alternate picking (my favourite), legato, tapping, hybrid picking, fingerstyle.
Pick height, pick angle, pick grip, or the muscles involved in picking, or fretboard hand will be studied in detail.
Also a learning term called "chunking" will be in the lessons in order to keep up with the metronome, not to lose track while playing hundreds of notes.
Life would be much easier if you like listening to Dream theater, Metallica, Steve Vai, Guthrie Govan, Joe Satriani, John Petrucci, Children of Bodom, Slipknot, etc.

This private lessons will be designed specifically for your own needs and requests. You will learn the basics of the instrument, how to study at home and how to develop your own musicality.

Through different activities you will also find plenty of joy in the music, playing solo and with the teacher.

Whether you are just getting started or you have been playing for years and you need fresh input, I am your guy. As a great music enthusiast with extensive experience (over 15 years) in playing guitar, having a handful of bands and musical project, and composing music in different genres and styles, made me the best tutor for you or your kid. My style of teaching is very personalized and I can adapt to every genre or needs the student requires. With just under 10 years of teaching under my belt I managed to make the lessons as interactive as possible to ignite the passion of learning in every person.

We will build the foundations of guitar playing through Guitar Theory, Chord Building, Strumming, Rhythm exercises, Finger Picking Techniques and Picking Techniques.

And after that, we will take it further with Scales and Licks, Improvisation Techniques, and Song Building.
It will be a lot of fun.

In my course I will try to pass on to you with passion all the beauty that an instrument like the guitar is capable of giving.

I use a modern method that will allow you to immediately become familiar with the instrument and get into the swing of things! Increasing your passion from lesson to lesson, without ever getting tired.

In addition to deepening technique on the instrument, I prepare an in-depth study for each lesson that varies from student to student and follows a guideline (to be defined together) based on your artistic needs:
we will compose unreleased pieces with the loop station,
we will discover new music,
we will study how your favorite artist composes and structures their songs.

We will use techniques that will lead us to a concrete result in the shortest possible time!

Teaching materials are included in the course will be given at each lesson.

Guitar and bass lessons I use the Suzuki or Yamaha method but I can adapt to what we have on hand.
I have 25 years learning and teaching. I have the mornings free and some afternoons it is also a matter of agreeing.
Sincerely
Cease

My teaching approach focuses on learning how to truly play the guitar, not just memorizing songs. As a master of improvisation, I can guide you through any genre you're passionate about, making your learning experience both dynamic and tailored to your musical interests. Whether you're a beginner or advanced, I'll help you unlock your full potential on the guitar!
