Piano and Improvisation Lessons (all genres and abilities)
I specialise in teaching music composition, production, and piano. I have a BA from the University of Oxford in Music, and I am a professional TV and Film composer. I am also able to teach music theory, history, and ear training.
My goal is to create lessons that help my students to get an interactive, un-intimidating, and fun filled musical education. I believe that this comes from learning not just one area of music, but by giving students the tools to be confident in any musical setting they choose. I teach all ages and levels of musical ability.
As I have a wide background in music, I am able to give a rounded music educate in the area you choose to specialise in! I have experience performing classical, funk, jazz, and pop and would love to share a whole range of different styles with you.

About Me
I'm an all-round music teacher with a focus on understanding music, creativity, and encouraging students to try new avenues such as composition and improv to further develop their skills.I can help with:
Piano
Harp
Composition and Improvisation
Music Production
Song Writing
Music Theory
Music History
Ear training
Or a combination of the above!
I believe the best musicians love what they do and have found their area that makes them tick - I like to try to help my students to find theirs! Whether that's classical piano, jazz harp, music history, improvising, song writing, or music production. Most often a combination of these areas help people not just learn their new piece week by week, but really engage and build confidence as a musician in their own right.
I'm very happy to teach music history and philosophy and my degree in music from Oxford University allows me to teach topics from modernism to electronic music! I love giving my students background information about the pieces we are learning or the styles we are playing in, if they're interested.

Also, comprehensively, you will learn about music theory and ear training. Additionally, you are free to propose songs of your liking, to learn them along with the method.

Piano / Music Theory Lessons for All Levels - Recent Graduate of the Geneva Conservatory of MusicGeneva - Lausanne - Morges
Courses in English, French, Italian (native languages) - German (European level B2)
As a graduate of the Geneva Conservatory of Music, I offer with great enthusiasm, excellent methodology, and a strong desire to share my passion, piano and music theory lessons for all levels.
Having completed 12 years of studies in Piano and Music Theory, as well as courses in Musical Training and Sight-Reading, I want to introduce this extraordinary instrument to both beginners and advanced students with the same passion that my teachers (including Sodi Braide, who studied at the Paris National Conservatory of Music (CNSM), and Stéphanie Aubert) used to bring me to my current level—performing in major concerts and competitions with first prize at the CMG.
As a mechanical engineering student at EPFL, I can adapt the lessons in a fun yet rigorous way, to captivate young beginners. At the same time, my background allows me to expand and deepen the pianistic knowledge of advanced pianists.
I look forward to sharing my passion with you!
