I’m a professional musician who studied on the highly regarded jazz course at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance; whilst at Trinity I also studied Flute with members of some of London’s prestigious orchestras. I've performed all over London at well known venues like Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club and The South Bank Centre but also played around in the city in jazz clubs like Kansas Smitty’s and Olivers. As well as performing in London I’ve played all around the UK and abroad at festivals such as the New Generations Festival in Florence (playing with American jazz artists such as Dominic Farinacci and Dan Tepfer). I’m also a highly experienced and regard teacher having taught all the way from university level to primary school. My teaching adapts to the pupil after we identify the areas we want to and wish to work on but also aspects of playing i think you need to improve or will be good to work on. I can also provide theory lessons

Personalised piano teaching for all ages, from beginner to advanced. I am passionate about encouraging confidence in each pupil, whatever stage they are at! I trained in classical piano at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

I am also a trained actor (LAMDA foundation and Oxford School of Drama MA), which is very helpful for my music teaching. I also love coaching students through Drama School auditions and LAMDA exams.

Hello!

I am a professional, conservatoire-trained musician. I have worked on the West End, in regional and touring theatre, and as a gigging musician. I am also a highly experienced music teacher.

I am offering instrumental and theory lessons online, in the saxophone, clarinet, flute, vocals and piano.

My lessons are range from 30 minutes to one hour.

I look forward to meeting you!

Hi! My name is Maria and I am here to guide you through piano music world 🥰. Whether you are just a completely beginner, or have a bit of knowledge in music, or you want to master your piano skills, I am very excited to help you to achieve your goals. I teach in Central and South London.

About me: I am a professional pianist with Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in Piano Performance. I worked at the Royal Academy of Music.
15 years of piano teaching experience with students of different ages.
During the lessons, I focus both on piano technique and artistic expressiveness. An individual teaching approach to every student. A possibility to choose piano pieces the students wish to study. Music pieces by various composers and different music genres. Preparation for ABRSM exams. Theory lessons are applied as well.

If you are interested, please contact me. Good luck!

I have 15 years of experience both onstage and inside studios that allow me to provide well-rounded techniques to achieve musicality and interpretation in singing as well as music theory applied to sing or separately.
I also have Music and Singing certificates (honors both) from West London University.

I am a professional violinist with over 15 years in the industry. Graduated from Guildhall School of Music & Drama - this year rated the UK’s best music conservatoire and in the top 10 in the world. I will be teaching violin and everything related to it. Depending on your wishes, we will elaborate a strategy for your lessons in accordance with your goals. Contact me, even if it is only pure interest.

VIOLIN AND/OR MUSIC THEORY LESSONS

When I begin teaching an individual, I make sure that I inspire them and teach them the value and beauty of music. I am very thorough about teaching technique properly so that it will last and be an asset in one's musical future, but I still like to keep my students on their toes and excited about actually making music and adding life to the notes they draw out of their instruments. Each individual is different and has different goals they wish to achieve with their playing, thus, for me it is very important to establish a connection with my students and cater each lesson to their specific needs and learning style.

I have had the pleasure of sharing my love of music with musicians of all ages ever since I began teaching the violin in 2014. I teach both young and mature students, focusing my energy on private lessons. I have also had the opportunity to work with groups of young children at summer programs in collaboration with the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony.

Beat the Coronovirus Blues by actually playing the Blues :)

With the Virus threat and self-isolating now is the perfect time to learn guitar. I will help you at whatever stage you're at, if you are just starting out to Intermediate-advanced players with fun and friendly lessons.

With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning, you will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

• Are you an absolute beginner no idea where to start?
• Are you finding that the books and DVDs don’t seem to help you progress?
• Want to play that song you’ve had in your head?
• Always wanted to play that Jimi Solo?
• Got a guitar gathering dust but never got around to playing?
• Stuck in a rut - Can’t stop playing the same old riffs?
• Want to be able to play over the entire fretboard?
• Want to know what scales fit with what chords and vice versa?
• Music Theory - the hows and whys.

With your first steps into guitar playing, it is very important that you develop good technique - from holding the guitar in the correct position to exercises to help improve your strength and timing. With good technique, everything becomes easier, and once learned you’ll never forget it!

You’ll find that one-to-one lessons tailored to your pace of learning and the style you want to play will get quicker results than books and instruction video alone.

With my style of teaching, I focus on getting you playing the things you really want as quickly as possible. So whether you just want to strum a few singalongs or write your own, play some blues or get the funk out one to one lessons is the best way to achieve your goals and keep motivated.

It is a steep learning curve at the beginning but I have tried and tested methods to get you playing without difficulty Learn how to strum and change chords quickly and easily. Learn to play songs you really want to learn. I can transcribe any song and show you how to play it.

I have maintained a professional teaching schedule with over 1000 students taught in one-to-one private lessons. With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

I have two locations: Angel, Islington (Upper Street N1 2BH)
or at my Recording studio in Finsbury Park. N4 Fully soundproofed (We can crank up the volume)
I have 11 guitars to choose from and full recording facilities available. so if you want to record a song you have written we can do that too :)

Thanks

I am a university student currently working towards my DipABRSM in classical guitar. I have been teaching students now for over a year, and provide a good quality service for students learning ABRSM grades1-5. Above this grade, I would be happy to consider teaching depending on the individual. I am also happy to teach pop/acoustic songs, which are more based on chords.
The classes would be for as long as you wish, but the average of lessons I hold are about an hour. I will be working in London until July. Then, I will be working in Paris. I am also doing Zoom classes due to COVID, so this is also an option.

Hello! I offer professional guitar lessons for electric, acoustic, classical, and ukulele in a friendly, stress-free atmosphere for both beginners and advanced players. I've been teaching for about six years and have been involved with the instrument for over twelve years.

I'm a finalist in global competitions and a winner in national contests, both as a solo artist and in groups.

Whether you're taking your first steps or need help with technique and theory, you've come to the right place! I approach the instrument comprehensively. We can work on specific styles: technical prog metal playing, rock, jazz standards, blues, classical, fingerstyle. I also have significant knowledge of recording and guitar processing in DAW software and can assist in that area as well.

Online lessons via Skype, Zoom, Google Meets

During lessons, we mainly focus on:

Developing proper playing technique,
Playing songs you enjoy,
Improvisation,
Mastering music theory,
Navigating the fretboard smoothly,
Having a great time
After each lesson, I provide educational materials.

Hi, I’m Sarah!
I am both an Opera Singer and a classroom Music Teacher. My love for teaching and singing have always lived side by side. I constantly seek any opportunity to share my passion, whether that be in front of an audience or a classroom of students. I have always loved expressing myself through music, regardless of the genre. In fact, in a past life, I really wanted to be a country singer.

My philosophy as a teacher is to have student specific teaching styles that are all about helping YOU achieve the goals that you want to achieve! Whether it be your high school/university recital, auditions, or preparing for a gig, our lessons will be tailor-made to you. My job is to give you the confidence to enjoy your voice.
I am an Operatic Soprano yet I have sung across many genres for many years. Once you have a good technique you will be able to sing in whatever style you choose!

My operatic technique allows me to sing over a full orchestra without a microphone, and without causing vocal damage. In our lessons, I will be able to share with you these tools to healthy singing that enhances your natural tone. You will learn microphone technique, as well as performance techniques that will help you to better convey a character to an audience. I may also help with character development, songwriting, music theory and piano.
For any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
