Cello and Theory Lessons for all levels (leisure/ graded)

Music is part of our lives, so why not take a dive into learning and understanding it?

I am offering Cello and Theory lessons in English, Mandarin or French. Students can choose either or, but basic music theory will be taught as part of practical lessons to progress with music reading.

Be it leisure or exam focused, the lessons will be customized for each student. The lessons are progressively paced with a good mix of theoretical and technical studies, followed by expressions and musicality. Music knowledge is definitely not a requisite to begin.

Students will also have access to my music database with over 1000 scores, and arrangements can be made for your level.

Music theory lessons will be based on either the standard British / American theory or the French theory/ecriture system. Here, you will learn how to better read and understand music concepts and its rules, and even eventually write your own works!

Very professional and caring.

In this lesson, music knowledge is not a pre-requisite. Here, you will discover music theory and solfege, alongside general music - the understanding of the history and significance of music to humanity. Students have the option of standard British/ American theory (classic/jazz) or French theory/Ecriture system. From note reading to harmonization, graded syllabus (E.g ABRSM) or just to explore, lessons will be specially catered to your needs. Being able to analyze what you see will definitely greatly improve your own instrument's progress! Solfege, or solfeggio training is a specialized aural training. It can be taught in either fixed or movable do to train for strong relative pitch and rhythm stability, allowing students to 'hear' the music just by looking at the notes. This is especially useful for mastering sight-reading, transcribing and playing by ear! Adding on, the ability to analyze by ear will open your world to the music you may have not noticed before.

Henrique
Young qualified pianist gives private piano lessons
Hello ! Brazilian pianist and composer, graduated from the École Normale de Paris, I have 7 years of experience as a teacher and I would be very delighted to share my knowledge with anyone who is interested in the piano! I always try to adapt the lessons according to the objectives and musical preferences of my students, so if you dream of playing Chopin's Ballads, or if you just want to have a good time at the piano, I am here to guide you through it. path. So if you have a project or questions, don't hesitate to write to me and I will respond with pleasure.

Private lessons in piano and music theory for beginners and intermediates
Being a graduate of the Conservatory, I acquired a very rigorous apprenticeship in music. Today, private lessons allow me to share my knowledge and pass it on. Music is learning, but it's also a pleasure. For an optimal learning, I adapt as much as possible to the capacities of the pupil in order to be able to make him progress as well as possible, and that he thus learns the music and allow him to like to play and to make music. Private lessons in piano and music theory require step-by-step learning, with regular work, which I take the time to do during the course, and which in this sense will have to be continued on the other days of the week, for a real evolution, for a beginner as for someone who has a good basis.

I benefited from a classical and jazz education, which allows me to be comfortable with all types of students. Classes can be done on site or at home, moving around does not bother me. I offer these lessons to neophytes wishing to learn this instrument or to beginners in their first years (1-6 years of practice), whatever the age. - Technical exercises - Sound and broadcast work - Work of the desired directory - Improvisation exercises - Ear work - Working in pairs I will cover all of this in my classes! Looking forward to sharing my passion with you 😁

Help with music, theory and winds. Support or discovery work
Theory and music theory, in music, are far from being the most fun. But it is essential to do so to progress and have fun, to play as you want and without limits! With good methods and enough patience, you can still get there. The proof ? After 10 years at the conservatory, I still ended up liking it! But no worries, no need to wait so much. As for the instrumental, the work requires practice and patience. But above all, listening. A new ear can always make you grow, find details, different approaches. I offer a long practice filled with orchestral and ensemble experience to accompany in practice. I can accompany teaching without replacing it or give first wind instrument lessons.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

Knowledge of solfège or music theory is not required, we can always discuss this in class if you wish, but that is certainly not mandatory ;) I have been playing the guitar since I was 9 years old and for several years now I have been playing in professional bands with which I have been able to play on sugar rock, for example. The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else.
