-Professor Rafael

Masters Degree in Piano Pedagogy

Bachelors Degree in Piano Performance

I am a piano teacher with a specialized Master in Music Education and 19 years of teaching experience, in official music conservatoires, academies and private lessons. I am currently doing my PhD in Musical Sciences: Teaching and Psychology of Music.
I also have a Master in Music: Piano, and a Postgraduation in Music in Childhood: Intervention and Research.

I tailor my lessons to each student, according to their interests, levels, and learning goals.
I love to teach and I have continuously done it privately and in official music schools, with students from beginner to advanced levels, from 3 to about 70 years old.
With my help you can learn from a basic to an advanced level, develop musically and technically, read and interpret any score.

I have also participated in several piano masterclasses with world-renowned pianists and performed as a soloist and as a chamber musician in venues in Portugal, The Netherlands, Sweden, Belgium and the United Kingdom.

-Classical Guitar, Folk-Dreadnought or Electric-

Hello, I'm musician/guitarist/vocalist & singersongwriter since 2004. In 2009 I finished my studies in musical production (2 years) at ETIC in Lisbon and until now I've been developing various works as sound engineer, sound designer and guitar teacher.

Creative, committed and persistent are my main characteristics as a teacher, professional with 10 years of experience in musical production, sound engineering and guitar lessons. In 2014 I decided to move to London in order to improve in a more deeper level my sound engineer and mastering technics in LondonAmp – London Academy of Music Production where he completed the Sound Engineering Certificate course. Strong communication and interpersonal relation skills, fluently in Portuguese and English.

If you love music and want to know more and do more, this is the class. We will use the piano as our main instrument and explore many different styles of music and develop your own skills as a musician. We will have theory topic along side a main piece to work on that will help deepen your understanding of how music works and explores the three big areas of Jazz Pop and Classical. The balance between the two here is flexible if you are already comfortable on the piano.

Composition starts as I write set exercises for you that we can work together on and start to piece together the different elements that go into composing music. Should you want to focus on one of these three elements more I am able to shift the balance to make a personalized experience.

It is never too late to start or resume learning piano! My teaching experience makes me a witness to this.

Perhaps you came looking for piano lessons because you wish to be able to play some particular pieces, or to develop specific skills. Or maybe you don't know what your goal is yet, but are fond of the sound of the piano and want to dive into this wonderful instrument. Whatever the case, I am looking forward to hearing from you and discussing your next step!

I try as much as possible to tailor the work with each individual student aiming at the goals set and the student's musical tastes. This becomes more the case the higher the student's level of experience. Nevertheless, beginners are also encouraged to suggest music for themselves to learn.

The work on pieces is combined with other important activities designed to develop finger dexterity, hand coordination, rhythmic sense, music reading, playing by ear, etc. The Cortot, Hanon and scale exercises are some of my frequent choices for the technical work.

For young beginners, I defend a no-book approach during the first 2 or 3 months, for three main reasons: it makes learning more fun, it unlocks our creative potential and it allows us to explore the instrument rather confidently and freely. Instead of learning how to read right from the start, students have the opportunity to play games, listen to music, sing, compose, and improvise over backing tracks, developing the core skills necessary for any musical activity later on. After this period, it is then time to introduce them to a method book. The one I recommend the most is Piano Safari.

For teenage and adult beginners, the activities described above are selected and adjusted, and theory concepts may be introduced at an earlier stage. If desired, graded level series such as the RSL Classical or Contemporary Piano, among others, may be opted for.

Please notice that my scheduling may not always be up to date on this website, so the best way to know my availability is sending me a message. Feel free to get in touch for any other questions as well!

Looking forward to meeting you soon,

Rodrigo

Music is something I am passionate about! When I teach, I teach technique, theory, and how to read. Learning to read music is a big part of my lessons. We will work on learning songs as well as scales and theory. My lessons are very tailored to the goals of the individual! We could work on Beethoven one day and a Beatles song the next! It is based on the student's goals.

You will learn to sing, recognize the pitch, be a pro right away, chords, solfège, reading the notes, play songs, I just need you to be open to learn! I have a unified experience working in different cultures , own my own music school in California and now living in Portugal ! I teach online and in person within my immediate area which is Cascais at the moment.

my qualification is Masters (hons.) in music. i was university colour in 2013 which is only awarded to 5 students in university. I received award from ministry of cultural affairs India. international awards from Dubai, Russia and performed in many countries. worked in Cambridge international school (IGCSE) for 4 years as head of department.

My lessons focus on awakening in the student a desire to better understand the world of music, and above all - to develop a taste for musical expression, whether it's through the classical school or the improvisation or pop school.

In order to achieve this goal, I take special account of the fact that music is not only a great entry into the world of creativity, but also a unique challenge, which gives us a new vision of ourselves, and teaches us self-love, patience and problem-solving. I combine this with a technical knowledge that can be adapted to students of any level of experience, as well as a willingness to plan lessons according to the student's project. I often add musical analysis and theory to my lessons, which can unlock and clarify many of the "secrets" of what we play. I can teach in Portuguese, English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.

I've been teaching for over a decade, having trained students from the age of 2 to 70- amateurs and professionals. As a musician I have participated in International competitions and graduated from the University of York.

I teach both in my own home and at the student's home, for a fee, and online.

Have you always wanted to learn how to sing but weren't sure where to start? Do you wanna serenade someone with your favorite song? I'd love to help you start or grow your singing journey.

My name's Carolina and I'm a classical singer and voice teacher. I'm looking for new students. I've taught a wide range of ages from 6 years old to 40 years old but singing has no age limit!

In my lessons, we learn the fundamentals of vocal technique, work new songs, and sing your favorite songs. Whether you're working toward performing one day or just enjoying the act of singing, I seek to create a safe space to help you explore and find your voice.

Please message me with any questions about my experience, requests, or just to chitchat ☺️ Thank you

Ableton is an incredibly versatile tool for making music, whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your production skills. In this course, I share over 7 years of hands-on experience with Ableton to help you turn musical ideas into real, expressive tracks.

This class is designed for beginners and developing producers who want to gain a clear, practical understanding of Ableton — not just how it works, but how to use it creatively and with purpose.

We’ll cover:

Setting up and navigating Ableton Live

Understanding audio vs. MIDI and using instruments effectively

Recording, sampling, and arranging

Mixing essentials: EQ, effects, and dynamics

Developing your own workflow and creative process

Whether you're into electronic music, beats, or songwriting, the focus is on helping you build confidence, finish ideas, and express your musical voice through Ableton.

Lessons are available in Lisbon or online — and always shaped around your needs and style.

Hi I'm Josef! I have over 15 years experience performing diverse genres including European & Celtic Folk, Balkan-Klezmer, Tango, Latin-American, French Musette, Blues and Swing. All of my classes are personalised to my students. I prepare pieces that fit your level but align with your musical loves, to push you to the next level while having fun, rather than learning from only a fixed course or book.

As a musician I've worked, toured and studied in countries including Colombia, Chile, Bulgaria, and Greece, which has given me a wide musical repertoire, collection and musical perspective that I'm keen to share!

I've worked with children and also seniors who have begun their music education later in life from little to no experience. Having played in diverse bands I can put the accordion in context and build confidence playing with other musicians, teaching techniques and music theory that can be transferred to other instruments.

My students say I'm a friendly, supportive and experienced teacher with over 15 years experience playing Piano accordion. I've taught students from advanced levels to zero musical experience, enabling people to gain confidence and play diverse Global styles.

Understanding music theory and composition is essential for musicians (whether performers or composers) of any genre and level. With this course, I hope to share my 10 years of experience in composition and music theory, as well as a great enjoyment for the field. I aim to exemplify the discussed theory through listening and (if applicable) playing examples, combining the established theories by discussing compositional parameters, making the playing of pieces and composing more accessible and organic.
I aim for a personalized experience within the framework of demand.

This course is designed for students who want to improve their vocal skills, covering both classical and pop styles. As a PhD student in vocal performance and an experienced music teacher, I will guide you through vocal techniques, breathing methods, interpretation, and stage performance. Each lesson includes warm-ups, technical exercises, repertoire study, and stage performance coaching. My teaching approach is intercultural, flexible, and inspiring, making the learning process both enjoyable and effective. It also helps students gradually build confidence and discover their unique voice. Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate learner, or an advanced singer preparing for the stage, you will find tailored training and growth opportunities in this course.

You can learn the Piano at any age.
