Piano pour tous âges et tous les niveaux - professeure diplômée
Que vous souhaitiez élever votre jeu de Chopin à un niveau supérieur ou jouer votre morceau préféré au piano, je suis là pour vous aider à atteindre cet objectif. Forte d'une carrière professionnelle en tant que pianiste concertiste et professeur de piano, je suis titulaire de Diplôme supérieur d'enseignement avec mention très bien. En parallèle de ma carrière de pianiste solo professionnel, j'apprécie également la collaboration avec d'autres musiciens. Je suis titulaire de diplôme supérieur de musique de chambre et j’ai obtenu le DEM en accompagnement au piano au CRR d'Aubervilliers où j’ai acquis les compétences pour transpositions, harmonie, réduction d’orchestre et de choeur. Avec ma formation en musicologie (Licence en musicologie), je suis en mesure de donner des cours particuliers en formation musicale, en harmonie et en histoire de la musique. Mon expérience couvre une vaste gamme d'âges et de parcours, allant des élèves de l'école primaire aux professionnels en reconversion, tels que des médecins à la retraite. Alors, qu'attendez-vous ? Réservez dès maintenant votre premier cours, et entamez votre voyage vers l'excellence pianistique. Whether you want to take your Chopin to the next level or play your favorite song on the piano, I can help you achieve your goal. Embarking on a professional journey as both a concert pianist and piano instructor, I successfully obtained the "Diplôme supérieur d'enseignement" competition at the Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris Alfred Cortot with the distinction of "mention très bien." Concurrently with my solo pianist career, I derive pleasure from collaborating with fellow musicians. I obtained the "Diplôme Supérieur de musique de chambre" of école normale de musique de Paris and the DEM of piano accompagnement in CRR d’Aubervilliers where I acquired the skills of transposition, harmony, orchestra and choir reduction. Utilizing my academic background in musicology (Bachelor's degree in musicology), I am skilled at offering private instruction in music theory, harmony, and music history. My extensive experience includes a wide range of students, from elementary school children to retired medical professionals. What are you waiting for? Book your first class now and kick-start your journey to mastering the piano. ________ - Merci à Mes Étudiants - Je tiens à commencer par exprimer ma sincère gratitude à tous mes étudiants qui ont pris le temps de me laisser des avis réfléchis et positifs. Vos mots gentils et vos retours détaillés comptent énormément pour moi et m’encouragent à continuer de partager ma passion pour la musique. - À propos du Commentaire Négatif - Concernant le seul avis négatif : l’étudiant en question a manqué son premier cours en raison d’une grasse matinée. Malgré la politique de la plateforme stipulant qu’aucun remboursement n’est accordé en cas d’absence sans préavis, j’ai proposé de fournir un cours de remplacement gratuit dès ma première disponibilité après la période chargée des fêtes de fin d’année. Malheureusement, l’étudiant a refusé la date que j’avais proposée et a suggéré des jours qui ne faisaient pas partie de mon emploi du temps. J’ai dû suspendre la communication en raison d’autres engagements. À la date initialement proposée — qui n’avait pas été confirmée —, l’étudiant s’attendait à un cours et a par la suite laissé un avis négatif. Par souci de bienveillance, j’ai même remboursé une partie des frais (à l’exception des frais d’inscription non remboursables),. - Mon Engagement et Mes Attentes - Je suis engagée à offrir des cours de haute qualité à un tarif accessible, soutenus par mon expérience professionnelle et l’accès à un piano Yamaha YUS5 neuf. Mon objectif est de rendre la musique accessible à ceux qui l’aiment. En retour, je demande aux étudiants de respecter mon temps et mes efforts en respectant les horaires convenus et les pratiques de communication. Merci pour votre compréhension et votre soutien continu. Ensemble, nous pouvons créer un environnement d’apprentissage et de croissance positif et respectueux. _________ - Thank You to My Students - I want to start by expressing my heartfelt gratitude to all my students who have taken the time to leave me thoughtful and positive reviews. Your kind words and detailed feedback truly mean a lot to me and motivate me to continue sharing my passion for music. - Addressing the Negative Comment - Regarding the one negative review: the student in question missed their first class due to oversleeping. Despite the platform's policy of no refunds for no-shows without notice, I offered to provide a free replacement class at my earliest availability following the busy holiday season. Unfortunately, the student declined my proposed date and instead suggested days outside my teaching schedule. After several exchanges, I had to pause communication due to other commitments. On the originally proposed date—which had not been confirmed—the student expected a class and subsequently left a negative review. To show goodwill, I even refunded part of the fees (excluding the non-refundable registration fee). - My Commitment and Expectations - I am dedicated to offering high-quality lessons at an approachable rate, supported by my professional background and access to a brand-new Yamaha YUS5 piano. My goal is to make music accessible to those who love it. In return, I ask that students respect my time and effort by adhering to agreed-upon schedules and communication practices. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Together, we can create a positive and respectful environment for learning and growth.

Julie
Piano teacher / musical awakening / music theory and singing
Nice to meet you! I am Julie, a private piano teacher since 2019 for beginners to cycle II. Currently I have 12 students, adults, teenagers and children from 4 years old! My goal is for my students to learn the piano while having fun, so that they become independent over time and can enjoy playing what they like. This is why I listen to everyone's tastes, while opening doors to registers that might not be those immediately thought of (classical, jazz, singing accompaniment, etc.). Also, music theory is a key point of learning that cannot be ignored if you want to progress. But knowing that it can scare more than one, I would like to point out that I do this in a very fun way by adapting to the level of capacity and age of each person: this therefore involves pieces, songs, and for the youngest, games that I make myself (memory, tables, human-sized mats, card games, writing, etc.). This allows us to suit everyone, and learning through all the senses (writing, listening, movement, memorization, etc.) is, in my opinion, a very relevant means. If the student likes singing, I also offer singing lessons and I teach them how to accompany themselves, so that they can ultimately accompany themselves on all the songs and have a lot of fun. My lessons last 1 hour, whether the student is an adult or a child. I can possibly teach at my home if necessary, but I usually go to the student's home. Also, the piano is a rather solo instrument. But loving sharing and conviviality, I offer in addition to solo pieces, pieces in 4 hands between students by level (which is in my opinion very beneficial from a technical and learning point of view). Finally, 2 auditions per year are planned in a nice room that I reserve with a beautiful grand piano, during which the students sing and play their solo and 4-hand pieces in front of their loved ones. These moments are really friendly and without pressure or expectations from me: snacks, music, laughter and sharing are in the spotlight. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate! See you soon, I hope :) Julie

Roméo
Private piano lessons, music theory, technical and musical skills
My goal is to ensure that the student, whatever their age or musical level, learns not only to play and master their instrument but also to have fun even in the technical learning phase. The working methods revolve around knowledge of the instrument, technique, style, musicality but can also occasionally focus on historical contextualization if the student wishes to approach this approach. The repertoire offers endless avenues of work and great musical discoveries!

Brice
Gives drum lessons (electronic and acoustic)
Hello, I like to transmit and exchange with my students. Seeing them understand and progressing is essential and very rewarding for me. My lessons are based on an academic method focused on learning music theory and instrumental practice. I bring a specific method adapted to the profiles of my students (age, availability, tastes, motivation, "anti-music theory"). I try to make my students independent, help them develop their listening skills, their sense of rhythm and transmit to them an efficient working method. All styles, all levels: pop, rock, funk, jazz, blues, soul, reggae, latin

Emmanuelle
Professional lyric singer offers lyric singing lessons
I am a professional lyric soprano graduated from the CNSM of Lyon. I participate in productions with the Concert d'Astrée, the Choir of Namur, Accentus, the Opéra National de Lorraine, Choir de la Chapelle Harmonique. I am also on the lists of the Montpellier Opera, Concert Spirituel, Ensemble Correspondances and Radio France choir. I have just finished a production of Haydn's Die Schöpfung at the Opéra National de Lorraine last January-February, conducted by Marta Gardolinska (Guillaume Fauchère choir director), directed by Kevin Barz. I sang solo and in chorus the role of the Trojan woman in Campra's Idomenée in 2021 at the Lille Opera and the Berlin Staatsoper, staging of the fura dels baus, I also sang the solo of Campra's Requiem at the philharmonies of Luxembourg, Lille, Essen Cologne and Berlin with the Concert d'Astrée in 2019 directed by Emmanuelle Haïm. In 2019, I participated in the production of Les Indes Galantes by Rameau with the Namur Choir at the Opera Bastille, directed by Leonardo Garcia Alarcon and directed by Clement Cogitore. In 2022, I participated in numerous productions, notably with the Accentus choir in Beethoven's 9th symphony, the missa solemnis or even a polyphonic baroque project. In 2022 I participated in the production of Hulda by Cesar Franck with the Namur Choir at the Grand Manège de Namur, the Liège Philharmonic and the Théatre des Champs Elysées. My background as well as my skills in lyrical singing allow me to master my instrument well. I am a very curious and very patient person, and I like to find solutions to problems. Transmitting my passion to students wishing to discover or develop their voices, discover their artistic personality would be a great pleasure for me. If I can transmit this joy that I have from singing as well as my acquired knowledge, it would be a great exploration for them as for me.

Parsa
Piano, Composition, Music Theory, Harmony and counterpoint
Learning music, is directly connected to the cognition system of our mind, and our cognition is the first step to perceiving the music, so it is essential to understand music and perform it. I am proposing classes in Piano, Composition, and Music Theory and writings. In the class of Piano depending on the student's wishes, we work on different methods, from learning music just as an activity to students who wish to continue their profession as a musician. The class of composition has the same algorithm as the piano class, the method selection is based on the student's wishes. Music Theory is proposed in both classes of composition and piano on the side but for the students who wish to learn music theory separately with more concentration, I offer this class as a separate class too. Class of Harmony and Writing actually has the same situation as music theory classes but students in the course of composition will be more specialized in harmony and counterpoint than piano students and of course, this course is proposed as a separate class too.

Jemma
Piano, Music Theory and Aural Lessons - all grades
I have over 10 years of teaching experience, both privately and in schools, catering to students of all ages, from children to adults. As a friendly and enthusiastic instructor, my goal is to ensure that every student finds joy in creating music and can work towards their personal goals—whether it's for the sheer enjoyment of music-making or to prepare for music exams. I'm also proficient in teaching music theory, which not only enhances musicianship but is also essential for students aspiring to reach higher levels in their musical journey. I hold a Bachelor of Music and a Master's degree from two prestigious London music institutions: the Royal College of Music and the Royal Academy of Music. Since then, I've been actively performing as a soloist and collaborating with various orchestras and ensembles worldwide.

Apollonia
Beginner to Advanced Lessons for Guitar Players for all ages
After dedicating 14 years to mastering the guitar, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of guitar playing, encompassing both foundational techniques and advanced music theory. In these lessons, I'll be sharing the wealth of knowledge I've accumulated over this extensive period of learning. I will be covering a broad range of guitar techniques, including fingerpicking, strumming techniques, major and minor chords, power chords, barre chords, riffs, scales, finger warm-ups, practising any song of your choice, string bending, pull-offs, hammer-ons, harmonics, strumming patterns, and slides. All are provided with diagrams etc. For music theory, I will begin by covering the fundamentals, including notes, strings, and the musical 12-note chromatic scale alphabet on the guitar. As students progress, we will delve into more advanced topics such as tones, semitones, chord progressions, circle of fifths, scale formulas and chord terminology. Additionally, we will explore concepts like consonance and dissonance and pitch practice to develop relative pitch. (You have to be born with perfect pitch but you can learn relative pitch with practise!) Then advancing to jazz theory, we'll explore; jazz scale formulas, jazz chord progressions, swing techniques, major and minor 7th chords, major and minor 9th chords, dominant, augmented, half-diminished, diminished, sus2 and sus4 chords. And then jazz scales and the art of re-harmonising a song (changing the chords to jazz chords). All music theory will be intertwined with guitar practice as both can't be done without the other! One observation I've made while learning guitar through lessons is that information is often doled out incrementally, making it feel like a breadcrumb trail. Guitar knowledge and skills seem to be closely guarded and usually gatekept unless actively sought out. I strongly believe that the extensive knowledge I've acquired over 14 years of playing should be fruitfully shared in a more comprehensive and accessible manner, of course while being tailored to the pace of the students. In essence, I'm convinced that the depth of my understanding I've gained could be effectively conveyed and learnt within a two-year timeframe without including the time it takes to master the skill with practice, of course, I'd like to make it easier for people to learn the guitar and the theory behind it. I have also graduated with a distinction for my Music Performance and Production UAL Level 3 Course and a distinction in Fashion Communication which included my music playing at Central Saint Martins. I also have experience teaching guitar in London and Bristol before. The lessons will be taught in English so practising your English with me is also a plus, a foundational knowledge of English is required to take the lessons.

Damien
Conservatory student gives lessons in guitar, music theory and musical composition (all styles)
Graduated from a license in musicology, I am currently pursuing my graduate studies at the conservatory in the scholarly disciplines of composition, analysis, writing, musical arrangement as well as Jazz. I have been playing guitar for many, many years now, as well as piano and flute. I have been teaching guitar, piano, flute and musical education for several years now to children, teenagers and adults. I also have a very good level in music theory, writing (jazz and classical), harmony as well as musical composition. My classes are based on listening as well as the development of the musical ear and musical creativity. I try to transmit my passion for music by making my students discover very varied horizons, from jazz to classical music, including current music and so-called traditional music. I also seek to develop autonomy in my students, an essential quality in order to flourish both musically and in everyday life. This is why I insist on the knowledge of the instrument and the development of creativity through the teaching of applied music theory and the development of the ear. My course is aimed at both beginners and people of an intermediate or advanced level who would like to improve their skills. If you are looking for a teacher who is both an educator and attentive to your personal musicality, do not hesitate to contact me.
