My keywords:Passion for music, flexibility, tension and relaxation, having fun = enjoy playing, being efficient and focused = music is a demanding discipline, independence of hands and fingers, regularity of work
My method is first of all to fascinate the student, and the music must above all give pleasure.
Then comes the choice of my working method adapted to the level of each one.
Of course, we will work on technique, listening, flexibility, posture, breathing, style, interpretation, but also self-confidence, and psychological self-encouragement, inner singing, anatomy and the correct posture of the musician (back, arms, wrists, fingers). All to develop a healthy position and a comfortable and fulfilled piano playing.

Léo is a multi-talented Franco-Turkish concert pianist and an artist of great sensitivity. He expresses his pianistic art through the classical repertoire, jazz, and is fond of improvisation and composition.After musical studies in Antibes, Nice and Paris, he was unanimously admitted to the University of Music in Geneva - HEM where he is currently studying with Cédric Pescia and Gabor Nagy Takacs. He also follows the Master of Pedagogy at the conservatory.
His touch on the piano is balanced by a mixture of French and Russian schools. He studied with professors Rena Sheresheskaya, Florence Paumier, Cécile Collin and Bernard D'Ascoli.
He also works with great pianists such as Paul Badura-Skoda, Jacques Rouvier, Pavel Gililov, Louis Lortie, Bruno Rigutto, Alain Planès, Fred Hersch, Frank Avitabile and Marc Perrenoud.
Associations such as Ars Antonina, Piano Cantabile, Le Cercle Musical de Cannes and the Académie Villecroze support him in his artistic development.
A talented and promising young pianist, he won several prizes and distinctions in numerous competitions: the piano competition of the Lions Club of Sanremo and Nice, the Steinway competition in Cannes, the international competition in Île de France and the Philomuses prize in Paris. .
For several years, he simultaneously studied flute, cello and drums. In 2010, he won 1st prize at the National Flute Competition in Menton on the Côte d'Azur.
Léo performs in many countries around the world (France, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Russia, Cuba, Turkey, China).
Appreciated for his temperament and his sensitivity, he plays in various festivals such as the Vence Festival, the La Côte Festival in Switzerland, the Moscow Flute Festival, the Cuba Festival, at the Théâtre des Variétés in Monaco, at the Auditorium Kosma, at the Dior Chapel in Montauroux, or at the Auditorium de la Seine Musicale in Paris.
As a soloist, he gives concerts with several orchestras such as the Orchester de Chambre de Genève, the Orchester Symphonique de Cannes, the Orchester de Chambre de Mersin, the Orchester Camerata d'Istanbul, the Orchester Mozarteum de Havana. He regularly plays chamber music in duos, trios and quintets, notably with vocals, flute and jazz trio.
This year he founded a cello-piano duo, two piano quintets in which he performed Schumann, Mozart and Beethoven.
Léo gives several charity concerts for the benefit of the association "Coline en Ré" which helps disadvantaged children in Madagascar and Reunion.
Selected in two academies such as the Phillipe Jaroussky Academy in Paris and the Villecroze Academy, he performed at the Seine Musicale, where he studied with countertenor Philippe Jaroussky, pianist David Kadouch during masterclasses filmed by Medici TV .
During the Academy of Villecroze, the meeting with the pianist Louis Lortie is decisive in his training. He invited him to the Queen Elisabeth Chapel in Belgium to work on Chopin and Mozart.
At the same time, he made an exciting encounter with the Russian-Swedish pianist Julia Mustonen with whom he worked in a masterclass and will soon go to Sweden to perform at its international piano festival.
Regularly collaborating with the Italian composer Armando Ghidoni, Armando chose him as the official pianist of his compositions and dedicated a double concerto for flute and piano to him entitled "Magical Concert". He is also the ambassador for this piece as far away as Shanghai and Havana. It will be recorded with the Belgian label "Chant de Linos". He created the European premiere of Ghidoni's "Captivating Story" Piano Concerto.
He has already recorded the piece "Music Wonderland" in the chamber music disc of Ghidoni's work.
Léo currently lives in Geneva, he is passionate about pictorial art, opera, ethnomusicological conferences, travel, the study of languages such as German, English and Spanish. He learns to play on historic pianos such as the pianoforte with Pierre Goy. He plays in a jazz and current music group at the conservatory.
Recently, he completed a semester in Sweden as an exchange program, after meeting piano teachers Julia Mustonen & Mikael Kanarva at the Glafsjordens Festival in Arvika. There he prepares a new classical repertoire and works on a new way of approaching his piano. He is currently preparing his recital diploma at the Conservatoire Supérieur de Genève, international competitions, an album in solo repertoire and with orchestra for the Chant de Linos label.
Coming from a family of teachers, his mother also a renowned concert pedagogue, he has been teaching the piano since a very young age and is passionate about explaining and solving the difficulties that his students may encounter. He is currently doing a Masters in Pedagogy in Geneva and is looking for two young students for regular work at the Haute École de Musique de Genève.

Piano, music theory and computer music lessons for kids and adultsFrench below
Having recently obtained my masters degree in Music from the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I have been teaching piano, music theory and electroacoustic music for 8 years.
As a former student of the Conservatoire de Musique of Geneva and a music technology undergrad, I offer a tailored program to your needs and wishes. Be it classical jazz or pop music or music theory, composition and improvisation (or all of these!), I will gladly instruct you in a friendly and playful way.
Graduated with a master's degree in Music and Environment at the University of the Highlands and Islands in Scotland, I offer piano, music theory and electroacoustic music lessons for all ages.
Both classical piano training with years of study at the Geneva Conservatory and electroacoustic training with a bachelor's degree in music technology, I provide a program adapted to the needs and desires of each student. With seven years of experience under my belt and having had students of all ages and backgrounds, I gladly teach classical pieces, jazz, pop, but also music theory or even composition or improvisation. At the same time, I also teach electroacoustic composition to children.

Piano, lyrical singing and music theory lessons for beginners, continuing and experienced musicians.The lessons I provide are aimed at musicians at both beginner and advanced levels and of all ages. I adapt according to the student's objectives. I have a degree in piano and music theory and am currently a student in opera singing at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève.
Louana
Piano lessons / music theory Beginners / Intermediate / advanced - AdultsHello,
My name is Louana, I am 30 years old and am currently a piano teacher for students ranging from 4 to 65 years old.
Indeed, I started very young music with first 2 years of rhythm then 5 years of Solfege Jacques-Dalcroze and finally 12 years of piano including 10 at the Conservatory of Music in Geneva. (each year of study being validated by exams & diplomas)
Today I continue to play for fun and give some of my time to teach a few students once a week.
Class sessions are generally 45 minutes to 1 hour as proposed by the Conservatory. I teach with my old scores which allows a gradual evolution step by step. Obviously, I remain attentive to everyone's wishes, but I particularly teach classical music because in my opinion, these are the best bases allowing you to play what you want.
I am obviously at your disposal for any further information or to arrange an interview at your convenience.
Best regards,
Louana

Introduction to piano and piano for beginners + basics of music theoryHaving played piano for 12 years, I offer lessons to learn the basics of piano.
If you are a complete beginner or you already have some basics, I offer exercises and pieces adapted to your level.
I base myself on my own learning, so it is not a professional course, I just want to introduce this instrument in a fun way.
Florent
Pianist graduated from the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève gives piano lessons, music theory for all ages and levelsMy piano lessons are aimed at beginners as well as more experienced students. We will start by defining together what your objectives are in order to find a learning pace that suits you. I offer a global approach to the piano combining technique, interpretation of pieces of varied styles and improvisation/music theory. A course is generally structured as follows:
1. 5 to 10 minutes of technical work.
The development of effective gestures is essential in order to fully express one's musical potential. I offer progressive exercises allowing you to acquire the basics of piano technique (finger independence, velocity, hand coordination, arm mobility, posture, etc.). For young students, this work takes the form of keyboard games. Just like a sport, playing an instrument is a challenge for the body: I ensure that the student adopts a good posture on the instrument, in order to play with control and to avoid tension and injuries linked to an inattentive practice.
2. Interpretation.
I propose strategies for structuring the learning of a piece, in order to optimize the time spent working on the piano and to make the student autonomous in their practice. My training at the conservatory allows me to introduce you to the styles of different eras of classical music, from baroque to the present day. I am also open to other musical universes, and the choice of pieces is primarily based on your tastes and desires.
For the youngest students, I offer a suitable repertoire (arrangements of classical pieces, film music, video games, anime, songs), as well as simplified scores for a gradual introduction to reading. In order to cultivate motivation, it is important that students play music that speaks to them and that they are not discouraged by music theory.
3. Improvisation and music theory.
For students who are beginners or have never done music theory, I teach the necessary theoretical bases (orientating themselves on the keyboard, reading a score, rhythm, listening), often in the form of improvisation games. In addition to developing a personal connection with the instrument, improvisation also allows you to assimilate notions of harmony/counterpoint (scales, intervals, chords) through practice, and to understand little by little how music is constructed. To make the link with the repertoire being worked on in class, I often suggest taking an element of a piece as a starting point for improvising.
Of course, nothing obliges us to follow a particular plan, and if you come with a particular desire or a specific objective, I will try to meet your expectations as best as possible. I look forward to reading you, and sharing some beautiful moments of music together.
Lia
Private lessons in: French, Spanish, English, math, music theory and pianoI give courses to people interested in learning a new language, to those who would like to deepen their knowledge or to review what they have already learned knowing that I speak fluently the three languages mentioned. I do the same for music and maths.
Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any levelI 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.
Lydia
Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student.
My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.

Gabriel
Pianiste certifié enseigner le piano pour tous niveaux. 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 6 ans, en Suisse, en Espagne, aux Maldives, à Chypre, en Autriche, en Islande et sur des navires de croisière de luxe (autour du monde).
J'ai environ 10 000 abonnés sur Youtube, 18 000 sur Facebook et 30 000 sur Instagram.
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 3 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.
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.
