About Me
My greatest skill as a teacher is to translate your goals on the instrument into smaller, very reachable steps. It is important for me to work only with exercises that you can easily transfer to other topics that are also of interest to you. When the need for me as a teacher decreases along the way, I've done my job. I prefer to work with the songs that you like rather than working only with what is a logical next step on the instrument. Learning an instrument and music in general is about fun and I intend to remember you of that :)
Education
Drum lessons with Peter Köhler
Guitar lessons with Patrick Bethke
Guitar lessons with Bernd Hess
Bachelor of Arts at International Music College Freiburg (2020)
Experience / Qualifications
Originally I started out on the drums and started teaching around 2008. With the start of my music studies in Freiburger I also began to teach guitar lessons and to cover musical topics in general. I've overseen bandworkshops and composition classes on public and private schools and I also worked as a coach for the KLONG project. Various bands (ANNA LU, Lola Funkt, The Rehats, Neuland) finally led to my Acoustic Solo Project.

I give lessons or music theory support in Basel and its surroundings. All ages and all levels. I like to share my passion in a relaxed atmosphere!
I am an oboe, a professional musician and graduated from the Lausanne University of Music in pedagogy.
verified badge
I offer lessons in guitar, ukulele, bass, mandolin and many other plucked instruments.

As a performing artist since 1997 with twenty years of teaching experience, I have earned the confidence to give you the skills and allow you to observe inwards as you refine them.

My unique method brings together elements from many styles, combining classical, pop, blues, jazz, and folk music into a very personal learning experience.

I am very experienced and passionate about teaching beginners and advanced students of all ages. I require no previous knowledge - just bring your curiosity about the guitar with you :) you are very welcome to start from the first step.

I hope to see you soon at our first lesson!

Singer trained at the Schola Cantorum of Basel (from medieval chant to the 20th century), I offer a general singing course: basic vocal technique (posture, breath work, sound work), discovery of different repertoires (depending on the student's tastes; pop repertoires also possible), work on interpretation. I can accompany the student on the keyboard. I work with people of all ages, beginners or not. The goal is to progress in a climate of trust.

You can also contact me for music theory lessons only (reading notes and rhythm, deciphering, notions of music theory, ear work).

I finally give piano lessons to beginners.

I can give the course in French or English, German and Spanish are also possible.
Lessons can take place at my home or at the student's home.

Hello,

If you find my profile appealing, please do not hesitate to contact me.

In my career, my life is frozen, my Lust, my Motivation, and my Ratschläge, my life is erroneous. Even though the settings are individual and personal, the programs are different.


Since I have been teaching violin and music, not a day has gone by without me saying to myself that motivation and pleasure are the greatest drivers of learning. This is why I always favor a relaxed and work-friendly atmosphere during my classes. Technique is of course of great importance to me.
I teach musical initiation, music theory and the viola which I practiced in chamber music and of course the violin, my main instrument with which I perform in several orchestras and ensembles.

My primary focus is on creating a personal connection and approach to the chosen instruments and to music in general. This includes (depending on your wishes, of course) your own musical expression, improvisation, songwriting (with lyrics if desired), song accompaniment and improvisation, as well as music theory and instrument-specific references.

Stylistically, the focus is on blues, rock, folk pop and world music, with strong references and influences from classical music, hip hop, electronic music and jazz.

Course for beginners and advanced students

My course focuses on the personal realtion between the individual, the chosen instruments and the music itself. This includes musical expression, improvisation, songwriting, songwriting, interpretation as well as music theory and specific aspects of the instrument.

My musical background lies between blues, folk, rock, pop and world music with influences from classical, as well as electronic music, hip hop and jazz.

I offer lessons in Classical music theory at all levels - Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.
Whether you're struggling with the basics, or want to take what you already know to the next level, I'll adapt our lessons to your needs and guide you through what you need to make it.

Trained in Classical and Early music, and having studied performance in harpsichord, organ, piano, classical and electric guitar, I've also studied chamber music composition and electroacoustic composition. A passionate learner myself, I have recently graduated with a Masters from the Hochschule für Musik Basel in Specialized Performance (Improvisation). These diverse experiences are necessarily integrated into what I teach and how.

In my theory classes we’ll look at the fundamentals of rhythm, pitch, solfège, intervals, key signatures, cadences, and other important groundwork whose rigorous study we can then apply to real-life examples of music, helping you acquire a sharper analytical ear.

I look forward to working out a comprehensive approach to improving your music theory skills, please feel free to get in touch!
