About Me

I started piano lessons at the age of seven, however only when I was a teenager I started learning music that I really loved and my interest in piano skyrocketed. That is why I believe piano lessons should be fun and engaging for students so they want to sit down and practice what they love. To help achieve this I include educational games in lessons with kids to reinforce concepts in a fun and memorable way.

Personally, I learned piano in a traditional classical way, I sat my grade 8 and senior cert exams in 2015/16 and I offer optional grade exams like these to my students, either with the Royal Irish Academy of Music or the Associated Board of the royal school of music but they are not compulsory. I completed my bachelor's degree in Music from TU Dublin Conservatoire in 2020 majoring in Piano Performance. My sights are now on getting my fellowship-level diploma.

I use a wide variety of method books with students in my studio. Sometimes it takes a few weeks to find the perfect book for each student's unique learning style. Some of my favourites include piano adventures, Get Set Piano, piano safari, and Poco Piano. I expect all students I work with to practice regularly (at least 6 days a week). Being consistent is key to success in playing piano. Music is a language and if you don't use it, you lose it! My current clientele makes up is 52% of adults. The current age range is 5 to 76. I recommend 30-minute lessons for all ages however if a student is either learning advanced repertoire or working on grade 6+ a longer lesson of 45 minutes or one hour may be necessary.

Education

Completed RIAM grades 1 to 8. RIAM senior cert, Bachelor of Music (Hons) specializing in Performance completed in 2020. I'm currently preparing for my FTCL exam.

Experience / Qualifications

I have over 7 years of teaching and performance experience. I have worked at many music schools in Europe and the US. Recently I joined the CBOI to play a sold-out concert tour in Ireland which ended with a sold-out show in Carnegie Hall in March. I'm an avid accompanist and accompany 50+ Instrumentalists for exams every year.

Piano lessons, music theory and/or history of music in Amsterdam
I have been a Piano teacher for over 25 years. This is something I am very passionate about and truly enjoy. My goal is to combine the students' interests with a program that I as a teacher find necessary to improve and develop technique and skills. I have also taught Piano to my kids, so I understand how important it is that Piano lessons are interesting and exciting. I studied at the Moscow Tchaikovsky Conservatory. For many years I had my own music theater studio. I have a Hoffmann Grand Piano and prefer to give lessons at my home. However, I am flexible and can come to your house too.

Piano lessons: What about learning how to play the piano?
Piano is the instrument used by the romantics to make their most beautiful music, but also by the most experimental and modern composers to create their craziest music wonders. Isn't it a great instrument to play? With more than 5 years of experience teaching in music schools and 15 years as a private piano teacher, I developed an efficient and "fun-but-efficient" way to teach how to play the instrument. Every student is different, which means the way to play and learn shall be different, making every single lesson special and rewarding. I also offer the possibility of teaching in groups: if you want to know more about this option. Hope to see you soon in our class!

Beatrice
MONTESSORI APPROACH TO TRANSVERSE FLUTE AND MUSIC THEORY
Would you like to learn the transverse flute with a new method? This class is inspired to the Abreu method, the musical version of the Montessori teaching approach. During the last 2 years, I have applied the Abreu method to countless scholars, with ages ranging from 8 to 70. Results have been amazing and I really hope you can be the next! Here's what makes it special: - A playful approach! While learning the rules and the discipline behind music, we will boost your progress with a lot of fun. Thanks to the Abreu approach, we can master your solfeggio and play classical tracks at the same time. - Teaching materials suitable for scholars of every level. Through many years of experience, I have collected an extremely wide range of sheets and exercises. - During the first lesson, we schedule our work in mini-courses. This way you know exactly how much you will pay and in return for what. - Everyone has potential and I am here to let you express it.

Daniel
Guitar lessons for Complete Beginners & Intermediate levels
Hi I'm Daniel, an enthusiastic and dedicated guitar teacher who loves meeting his students' own goals. By combining my 6 years of experience in teaching guitar with my students' own interests, I help my students make progress in the most engaging way possible. I provide my students with a grounding in the basics of technique and theory to make sure they develop good habits, enabling them to make use of the near-infinite resources online when they want to play and learn more in their free time and later in life. I believe a good teacher is one who makes their students able to go on independently and with joy and passion for their instrument. Learn your favourite songs, demystify music theory, learn how songs are written (and get help writing your own), learn to play songs by ear, explore a range of genres... I look forward to helping you with your own musical journey!

Federica
Singing, Music, Music Theory, Children's Music, prepare auditions and performances
You'll learn how to use the voice in the proper way, starting by your natural speech and developing it to find your own sound. I have experience in both Pop and Jazz styles (a Bachelor in Jazz Singing and a degree in Jazz Composition), so it's possible to study songs from both this repertoires. I also give Music Theory Lessons, to make the student develop his/her own style and musical sensibility and, in the case of Jazz, to know how to improvise on different chord changes and jazz styles.
