Learn the basics of music theory, learn piano technique and repertoire.

From 115 C$ /h

With several years of experience as a piano and harpsichord teacher, as well as an organ and harpsichord accompanist, I have developed solid expertise in various musical styles.
Specializing in classical and baroque music, I remain open to other stylistic universes, which has allowed me to explore Latin American and traditional music repertoires.

My lessons adapt to the needs and desires of each student. Together, we build a personalized program based on their level, musical tastes and goals.

EVERY CHILD CAN! Learning to play the guitar according to the Suzuki method is more than just music! We learn by the approach of the "Mother Tongue", playing and having fun. Children - from the age of 3 - develop, among other things, listening, memory, musical sense, concentration, discipline, respect. Collective workshops stimulate learning, and children learn to play together.
The "Suzuki Triangle", teacher, parent, student, reinforces the parental-child bond. Parents learn with their child and participate in lessons.
Music theory is included in the lessons, in a fun way.
Professor graduated from the Conservatoire with honors, graduated from the Suzuki method in Turin.
Also available for adult classes!

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

Mes cours de piano, solfège et composition s'adaptent entièrement au profil et aux objectifs de chaque élève. Qu'il s'agisse d'un premier contact avec la musique, d'une reprise après une longue pause, ou d'une préparation sérieuse à des examens ou à l'entrée dans un conservatoire, nous construisons ensemble un parcours sur mesure.

Ma double formation — compositeur et pédagogue selon la méthode Jaques-Dalcroze — me permet d'aborder l'enseignement de manière à la fois rigoureuse et vivante, en reliant le son, le geste et la perception du temps. J'accorde une attention particulière au rythme et à l'écoute, qui sont à la base de toute pratique musicale solide.

Je travaille avec :

Les enfants : développement des compétences musicales de base, éveil rythmique et auditif, initiation à la lecture de notes et à l'improvisation

Les adultes : cours adaptés à vos objectifs, à votre rythme, dans une atmosphère bienveillante et exigeante

Les candidats aux conservatoires : préparation aux examens d'entrée et ABRSM, travail ciblé sur les lacunes spécifiques en théorie, solfège ou instrument

Les cours ont lieu en français, en anglais ou en russe.

Our teacher using, if necessary, an electro-acoustic guitar to better accompany your voice and guide some of its subtleties, the teaching philosophy is adapted to each level, according to the pace of work and motivation.

Program :
- musical techniques: theory (examples: support, modes, colors, effects such as vibrato, etc.) automatically followed, for each of the exercises, by practice (examples: exercises focusing on accuracy, sound production, "mountains Russian ", time, note hold, diction, vowels etc.)
- work on breathing and breathing management
- body awareness
- stability
- resonance
- improvisation / free expression
- improved vocal comfort
- varied repertoire (adapting to your preference)
- well-being by the vibration of the voice
- personal or artistic development - accuracy, note keeping and precision - vocal modes including timbre
- volumes: softness and power - sound colors: from dark to light - vocal effects, range requirements - nuances: volumes, mimics, attitudes, sound quality - exploration of musical styles (folk, pop, classical, blues, rock, song, World music ...)
- improvisation, effects and vocal games, harmonies
-interpretation: work on emotions, body language, stage presence.

Objective: acquire a solid vocal technique allowing you to sing with accuracy, ease and expressiveness.

Musical learning meanwhile, will develop your ability to listen and reproduce music, your sense of rhythm, your expressiveness, your creativity and musicality as well as reading sheet music.

The work is focused on multidisciplinarity: voice, vocal health, music and bodily expressiveness, with an emphasis on the acquisition of an optimal vocal placement, on stress management in public and on interpretation.

This progressive and tailor-made method aims to develop your voice:
-Breathing techniques
-Vocalises and technical exercises adapted to needs;
- Repertoire work
- Accompaniment for studio recording and scenic performance
-dynamic exploration, diversification and release of one's voice while having fun and going beyond one's limits.

As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers, available all year round.

TEACHER / TRAINER

Trained in Grandes Ecoles in France and the United States (Ivy League University), our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in North America and Europe, in the field, in international establishments renowned, and oriented on one axis: effective training with pedagogy and meticulous methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

We will cover targeted concepts and techniques to achieve your goals and adapted to the way you learn best. Sheet music, oral, visual, annotations or adapted scores are all tools that I keep at my disposal according to needs. Music theory can help some people, in certain forms and in measured doses, while others, on the contrary, do not need it. It does not take me much time to learn to understand you and from the first session I will have targeted one or more approaches that will suit you. I still have one rule at heart, and that is to always maintain musicality and take pleasure even when playing simple things or exercises. Learning should never become a chore and should be a pleasure just as much as enjoying a good level of playing.

I offer recorder and/or music theory lessons, tailored to each student's needs. You can choose to focus on the instrument, deepen your musical understanding through music theory, or combine both for a comprehensive learning experience. For recorder, we work on breath control, fingering, articulation, posture, interpretation of early and contemporary repertoire, ornamentation, improvisation, and more. For music theory, I adapt my method to your level: reading notes and rhythms, listening skills, identifying intervals, fundamental harmonics, and understanding musical language. My approach is dynamic, supportive, and structured, always attentive to the student's pace and interests.

Professeure de musique et pianiste expérimentée, je propose des courses de piano et de formation musicale personalisés pour enfants, adolescents, adults et seniors.

Mon approche associe l'apprentissage du piano à la musicalité, l'écoute, le rythme, l'improvisation et la créativité. Je m'appuie notamment sur les pédagogies actives Jaques-Dalcroze et Orff afin que l'élève apprenne la musique de manière vivante et naturelle.

The courses are adapted to the level and objectives of chacun: piano discovery, musical initiation, reprise after several years, accompaniment to an apprenticeship that began or simply a pleasure of play.

Starting in September 2026, the Master in musical pedagogy – orientation Rythmique Jaques-Dalcroze will be offered to Geneva.

Mon objectif est que chaque elève progresse à son rythme tout en développant autonomy, confiance et plaisir musical.

🎻 Want to discover the double bass? How about we do it together this year?
For young and old alike, let's get to know this great instrument!

As part of my Master's degree in pedagogy, I want to dedicate time to mentoring two people as they discover the double bass. Today, I want to use my experience to teach, while continuing to explore, play, and refine my teaching methods.

Currently I am a professional double bassist in a symphony orchestra since 2016, graduated with a Master's degree in performance from the HEM of Geneva in 2018, and have years of experience in the Alexander Technique.

Whether you're a child or an adult, a complete beginner or already a musician, the idea is to start with your desires and curiosity: discover this instrument, learn to play it, explore its sound, movement, and listening skills... and above all, enjoy making music. 🎶

I am deliberately limiting this offer to 2 people, so that I can really take the time to build the courses with each person and offer personalized support.

And what about the formula?
Lessons can be paid, but I am also open to an exchange in the style of a "time bank": a double bass lesson in exchange for a skill, a service, a helping hand...we can imagine it together!

If you know that little musician in you who might like this idea, spread the word 💛 See you soon and happy back-to-school season to everyone!
