In my class, I teach piano in a way that allows you to make progress on your own. "Don't give a man a fish, instead teach him how to fish," is the idea here. My methods include, besides basics, approaches to expressing your own musicality, stable memorization, practice habits and efficiency, technical ease, focus exercises, body awareness, and stage fright. Hence, I am best suited for intermediate and advanced students that have the desire to either study piano on a collegiate level or make significant improvements for themselves. I would like to add at this point that I have a special affinity for the concert etudes by Frédéric Chopin. However, I am perfectly happy to start with students from the very beginning as well and regardless, I will adjust to my student's needs upon mutual agreement. My free times that I listed as available are a rough estimate, lesson times are normally negotiable.

Stefan has been an enormous help in orienteering the way I practice and in improving my technique by looking deeply into specific feelings and movements, and by going over the use of the fingers in a balanced and efficient way. I have learnt a great deal and am finding myself more and more comfortable, confident, and in control of my playing eachday. I have never experienced a teacher quite like Stefan, who really targets the lessons for specific learning styles and fine tunes problems. I would wholeheartedly recommend his training to anyone learning piano.
While I've only had my first lesson so far, the initial impression was very positive. Stefan is a very polite, kind, and yet direct person, which made the lesson very pleasant as well as efficient. He asked a lot of questions to ensure he understands my goals as well as my musical preferences. I am quite excited to continue my lessons with him.
I have my own piano studio for children & adults who like to be involved with music. Stefan's lessons are a great professional support for me: for my own study, to bring my piano technique up to speed & to sharpen my understanding of music. He is an excellent and passionate pianist himself and that works inspiring. Stefan has insight into how someone can learn new things, and a very good approach to teach you a good piano technique in a relaxed way. You come to yourself, in your body, in the music and this opens new doors for a very personal experience with music. For me this is the ideal input at the right moment. If you want to work with piano semi-professionally or professionally, this coaching is highly recommended!
I've had a very productive first lesson with Stefan. He is very mindful of your current capabilities and goals. Very excited for the many lessons that will follow.
