With me, you can begin, develop, or even perfect your piano skills. I adapt to all levels, styles, and paces. Some students who have dedicated a significant amount of time to studying piano regularly have made tremendous progress in a short period.
For students wishing to prepare for the entrance exam to the conservatory, I can help you in the form of an intensive mini-course during the summer or before (piano leveling and/or music theory).

My teaching method is sensory-focused, emphasizing the development of movement in connection with musical feeling. I will help you "connect" with your instrument and unlock its full potential.
Also, I attach importance to understanding the pieces played. Understanding their structural, harmonic functioning is necessary and unfortunately little addressed in traditional courses.

My classes are deeply human. A relationship of trust is established from the very beginning of the lessons. In my opinion, this is the foundation of effective learning.

My students are very satisfied with my approach, and I would encourage you to try the experience too!

I teach at home (Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume), at the student's home, and also via videoconference in the rest of France and abroad.
For this last option, if you are not equipped, I will help you with your first steps.
I offer hybrid formats for certain locations (online courses + some occasional in-person courses).

I offer saxophone lessons to beginner saxophonists and to already experienced saxophonists.
I also give lessons in improvisation, theory, harmony, music theory and composition.
In short, everything you need to play and improvise in the style of jazz.
During improvisation classes in my music studio, I use accompaniment instead of a jazz rhythm section (piano, bass, and drums). This effectively prepares students for playing in a real band later on.

In addition to saxophone lessons, I can give piano lessons as a second instrument for saxophonists, which is essential in order to understand and hear harmony.
I give lessons at home in Paris in the 16th arrondissement between the Iéna (line 9) and Boissière (line 6) metro stations.
For students who are unable to attend classes in person, I can provide video lessons via WhatsApp.
My job as a teacher is declared. Students can obtain invoices.

Ludmilla. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your art and passion! It was wonderful. Ludmilla, truly, "I have rarely met someone so passionate about their art." And truly thank you for the generosity with which you shared with me the richness of the pieces you worked on!! It's so powerful.
Pentecost, Paris, piano course, 3 intensive days in Paris, 3 days of sharing and enthusiasm.


-Ludmilla is not only a talented pianist but also an outstanding teacher.
She possesses all the qualities: patience, clarity, liveliness of mind; moreover she goes to the bottom of things: everything is worked with great attention to detail and musicality. It is truly a great privilege to be directed by her in piano work. Catherine

- Ludmilla is an incredible teacher, with a great teaching style. Her working method helps you progress a lot. Maud

-Coming to the piano late and not having access to the academic teaching of the French conservatories which stubbornly close their doors to adults who come knocking at their doors; I decided to boost my meager baggage with a piano course, a course organized by Ludmilla international pianist. On the program: preparation of the pieces; work on the pieces with Ludmilla, proposal of work for 4 hands; proposal of improvisation on the piano. Ludmilla is an excellent teacher by her requirement in addition to a precise organization on the course; great attention, precious advice on technique, rhythm, musicality, interpretation but above all a teaching with a lot of kindness and sensitivity, and what does not spoil anything, a lot of humor. Ludmilla knew how to put herself at my level, me beginner pianist student. She knew how to give me keys to follow my pianistic path while very generously sharing her musical universe. I thank her very warmly and I advise amateur and professional students to follow her excellent teaching method. Anne France


- Huge thanks for your very rich lessons, Ludmilla. Thank you for your patience and your investment in illuminating my score and helping me better understand these magnificent works. I really appreciated it. Sorry I wasn't able to put this into practice at the audition, but with work and attention paid to each phrase, it should gradually improve. Laure


-Ludmilla. Thank you with all my heart for sharing your lessons. It's fabulous. Ludmilla, I have rarely met a person, an international artist so passionate about their art. And really thank you for the generosity with which you have sent me the pieces you have worked on!! It's so powerful. Véronique


- Inspiring, Ludmilla is a concert pianist and teacher who is clearly part of the elite in the professional piano field. Her methodological approach (intelligence of fingerings, work on different voices, diversity of repertoire, etc.) allows rapid progress in learning works and overcoming all the difficulties encountered (techniques, interpretation, etc.). This in-depth work allows you to keep the pieces in your repertoire for a long time, to gain confidence and to ensure beautiful performances in public (auditions, concerts, competitions, etc.). I warmly recommend Ludmilla to all pianists, whether amateurs, students or professionals. Christian

- Ludmilla has great teaching skills and I have made enormous progress with this teacher who has won several major prizes. Ludmilla is a perfectionist and she works on technique, sight-reading and knows the pieces that suit us. In seven years, I have a large repertoire and I play in institutions. A teacher with great patience and great teaching skills. I recommend her immediately. Lucile

-Ludmilla is not only a talented pianist but also an outstanding teacher.
She possesses all the qualities: patience, clarity, liveliness of mind; moreover she goes to the bottom of things: everything is worked with great attention to detail and musicality. It is truly a great privilege to be directed by her in piano work. Catherine

- Ludmilla is an incredible teacher, with a great teaching style. Her working method helps you progress a lot. Maud

-Coming to the piano late and not having access to the academic teaching of the French conservatories which stubbornly close their doors to adults who come knocking at their doors; I decided to boost my meager baggage with a piano course, a course organized by Ludmilla international pianist. On the program: preparation of the pieces; work on the pieces with Ludmilla, proposal of work for 4 hands; proposal of improvisation on the piano. Ludmilla is an excellent teacher by her requirement in addition to a precise organization on the course; great attention, precious advice on technique, rhythm, musicality, interpretation but above all a teaching with a lot of kindness and sensitivity, and what does not spoil anything, a lot of humor. Ludmilla knew how to put herself at my level, me beginner pianist student. She knew how to give me keys to follow my pianistic path while very generously sharing her musical universe. I thank her very warmly and I advise amateur and professional students to follow her excellent teaching method. Anne France


- Huge thanks for your very rich lessons, Ludmilla. Thank you for your patience and your investment in illuminating my score and helping me better understand these magnificent works. I really appreciated it. Sorry I wasn't able to put this into practice at the audition, but with work and attention paid to each phrase, it should gradually improve. Laure


-Ludmilla. Thank you with all my heart for sharing your lessons. It's fabulous. Ludmilla, I have rarely met a person, an international artist so passionate about their art. And really thank you for the generosity with which you have sent me the pieces you have worked on!! It's so powerful. Véronique


- Inspiring, Ludmilla is a concert pianist and teacher who is clearly part of the elite in the professional piano field. Her methodological approach (intelligence of fingerings, work on different voices, diversity of repertoire, etc.) allows rapid progress in learning works and overcoming all the difficulties encountered (techniques, interpretation, etc.). This in-depth work allows you to keep the pieces in your repertoire for a long time, to gain confidence and to ensure beautiful performances in public (auditions, concerts, competitions, etc.). I warmly recommend Ludmilla to all pianists, whether amateurs, students or professionals. Christian

- Ludmilla has great teaching skills and I have made enormous progress with this teacher who has won several major prizes. Ludmilla is a perfectionist and she works on technique, sight-reading and knows the pieces that suit us. In seven years, I have a large repertoire and I play in institutions. A teacher with great patience and great teaching skills. I recommend her immediately. Lucile
