Teacher of saxophone performance, music theory (including harmony and counterpoint) and music composition
I have instructed students of different age groups in saxophone performance and music theory (including counterpoint, harmony and composition) up until university level, in Spain and the UK. After graduating from Cambridge with a double starred first, taking into consideration my academic results and teaching experience, I have also been selected for inclusion in the Supervisor Registry to teach counterpoint and harmony papers. My approach to lessons is very flexible, and I always try to adapt to the needs and qualities of each student. I believe that communication is essential, and at the beginning of each lesson I ask my students if they found my recommendations from the previous lesson helpful and how they see their progress. After this spoken introduction, we proceed to work on some warm-up and technical exercises. Then, we play some studies and pieces, or go over some music theory exercises, trying to apply the advice from the previous lesson and make further improvements. Finally, we conclude the lesson with a summary, listing the main key points and suggestions and comparing our experience to the previous lessons, trying to find a clear sense of progression and a coherent line of work towards a certain goal. This teleological mindset occupies a central position in my methodology, and I always encourage my students to look ahead and plan a series of stimulating events or challenges to look foward to, such as a concert, a recital, a presentation or an exam.

Qualified Guitar & Vocal Coach with over 10 Years ExperienceHi, I’m Hugh – a qualified and experienced musician with a Bachelor’s Degree and Honours in Music Performance and Production from The London Centre of Contemporary Music. With over ten years of experience as a guitarist and vocalist, I’ve had the privilege of performing across the UK in several touring bands.

What I Offer:
Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I can help with the following:
Songwriting: Struggling with that elusive bridge for your next band anthem? Let's work together to craft that perfect section and bring your songwriting ideas to life.
Vocal Training: I offer lessons to help you develop your vocal range, pitch, projection, control, tone, diction, runs, and vibrato in chest, head, and combined voice.
Music Theory: Want to conquer the theory side of things? I’ll break down complex concepts so you can understand and apply them in your playing and writing.
Accelerated Learning: Learn faster and easier with tailored methodologies that boost your ability to improvise and master the guitar and vocals.
Ear Training: Hone your ability to replicate melodies, intervals, chords, and songs by ear, so you can hear and play anything you want.

Fretboard Mastery: Learn how to break down and master the fretboard. Understand triads, seventh chords, and scales in all positions for better improvisation and composition.
My Teaching Style:
I believe that every student has their own way of learning and discovering music. I adapt my lessons to meet your needs and interests, keeping things enjoyable while ensuring progress. Whether you're into playing your favourite covers, writing your own songs, or just want to improve your technique, I’m here to help you grow as a musician.

Pianiste certifié enseigner le piano pour tous niveaux et tous les âges. Méthodologie personnelle et décontractée !J'ai plus de 12 ans d'expérience en enseignement, un diplôme de licence en interprétation au piano et une certification pédagogique d'une université reconnue internationalement. J'ai participé à de nombreuses classes de master de piano en Europe et j'ai étudié avec de grands pianistes. J'apprends toujours auprès de différents pianistes hautement accomplis.
Je travaille comme pianiste professionnel depuis maintenant 7 ans, en Suisse, en Espagne, aux Maldives, à Chypre, en Autriche, en Islande et sur des navires de croisière de luxe (autour du monde).
Au cours de ma carrière, j'ai appris que la compassion, la communication et l'encouragement sont tout aussi essentiels à la transmission de connaissances musicales que de compétences techniques.
Je vous apprends également à vous DÉTENDRE CORRECTEMENT, afin que vous ne subissiez jamais aucune blessure (tendinite, etc.) pendant que vous pratiquez le piano.
Mon expérience professionnelle comprend le coaching d'étudiants de tous niveaux et de tous âges, l'enseignement à différents niveaux de compétences. J'ai préparé avec succès les étudiants avec leurs examens de piano comme ABRSM, Trinity Grade 1-8 et des examens plus avancés. Je peux vous apprendre à jouer de la musique classique, du ragtime, du blues, du jazz, de la musique traditionnelle, de la musique moderne (Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, etc.), de la musique ancienne (Abba, Queen, etc.).
Je dispense mes cours en utilisant une combinaison de 4 caméras pour une visibilité optimale et un microphone de qualité que mes étudiants trouvent très utile. Cela leur permet de voir une démonstration visuelle très claire à côté de mon explication verbale.
J'obtiens d'excellents résultats avec mes étudiants qui travaillent en ligne.
Je vous donnerai des cours de piano en ligne personnalisés.
Pour les débutants, j'utilise les livres de méthode Alfred, mais je suis très ouvert à l'utilisation d'autres livres également. J'aime enseigner et expliquer des choses générales, des habitudes qui peuvent être appliquées à des passages musicaux similaires, que l'on retrouve dans toutes les partitions musicales, de la musique classique à la musique moderne.
J'ai environ 10 000 abonnés sur Youtube, 18 000 sur Facebook et 30 000 sur Instagram.
