Hi everyone, thanks for checking out my profile!

I am a guitarist and lutenist with 19 years of experience in musical performance. I have taught at public professional conservatories, as well as at various private music schools, to students of all ages and skill levels. In my classes, neither age nor skill level is a barrier to teaching musicality and guitar technique. My main objective is to reveal the student's intrinsic qualities naturally and progressively through the enjoyment of music, and the results are proven by the feedback from my students (and their parents).

We can work with many different musical styles within classical music, exploring its various forms, musical languages, and sources of musical notation. We can also delve into popular musical styles such as flamenco (rumbas, fandangos, alegrías, sevillanas, etc.) and their different strumming patterns, scales, harmonic structures, and time signatures. Or we can explore the vast and fascinating world of early music through tablatures and manuscripts from the 16th century.

Whether you're a beginner, advanced student, child, teenager, or adult, whether for auditions, concert preparation, music schools, music exams, as a hobby, or simply for the love of the guitar, you are all welcome to join my lessons.

I can teach in English and Spanish.

“The heart of a teacher and the soul of an interpreter”

Let me introduce myself. I'm Laura Sofía, a Spanish pianist from Colombia since the age of 9. I graduated from the Joaquín Turina Conservatory with a degree in professional studies. Musical performance is an art that requires dedication, discipline, and, above all, a commitment to the student's growth and potential in the right direction. This is the task I will help you with as a teacher. I have experience teaching students of all ages, especially children between the ages of 9 and 12.

Class model: Completely practical and personalized, combining music theory, performance, and applying the technical requirements of the piano in a fun way, performing the exercises on the piano or on paper. Classes are recommended for those preparing for entrance exams for elementary conservatory education.

My goal is to share my passion for music, harnessing each student's full potential and respecting their pace of progress to achieve a more advanced level in the discipline or to begin learning this wonderful instrument!

If you are interested, please don't hesitate to contact me!
