Professor with a Higher Degree in Piano with over 30 years of experience gives piano lessons
course price icon
From 49.93 C$ /h
arrow icon
Professor with a Higher Diploma in Piano from the Liceu Conservatory of Music in Barcelona and specializing in Spanish music from the Frank Marshall Academy (founded by Enrique Granados).

My curriculum is comprehensive and progressive. My teaching method focuses primarily on good sight-reading, combined with refined piano technique.

I also address learning difficulties such as postural problems, tension, and faulty touch.

My piano technique is based on the Enrique Granados school and his specific touch-based method, emphasizing sound and proper pedal use.

We will work on three basic sections: technique exercises, studies, and works from all styles (Baroque, Classical, Romantic, etc.).

We will also cover music theory (theory + daily exercises from the ABSRM method), solfège, choral singing, written ear training, score analysis, and concert listening exercises.

In addition to my in-person lessons, my online classes feature high-quality audio and video specifically designed for musicians: via the Zoom video call app (with settings that typically offer better sound for piano), and using OBS production software so you can clearly see the keyboard and hands from different angles.
Sound is captured with Behringer stereo microphones (piano) and a separate microphone for vocals, and multiple screens are used to combine sheet music, explanation, and real-time demonstration.

The goal is to make the online lesson as close as possible to an in-person class.

I have 30 years of experience as a teacher. Lessons are personalized to each student's needs, for all levels and ages (children and adults).
Extra information
Classes can be held at my home or the student's home, and I can also teach online. For online classes, I use a multi-screen setup and the programs Zoom and OBS Studio.

About Me
Ich stamme aus einer Musikerfamilie, die bereits in der dritten Generation steht – meine Mutter, Großeltern und Geschwister sind alle Musiker, Sänger der Oper und Zarzuela. Musik war daher immer ein selbstverständlicher Teil meines Lebens.

Ich bin Pianist und Klavierlehrer mit über 30 Jahren Erfahrung, ausgebildet am Städtischen Konservatorium von Barcelona und an der Frank-Marshall-Akademie, wo ich mich auf spanische Musik spezialisiert habe.

Das Unterrichten ist für mich eine große Leidenschaft. Ich glaube, dass man auch ohne berufliche Ambitionen Musik mit höchster Präzision und Hingabe lernen sollte. Eine solide Technik und die Fähigkeit, eine Partitur vom Blatt zu spielen, sind für mich wesentliche Ziele – ebenso wie die persönliche Freude, die das Musizieren schenkt.
Education
Ich bin Klavierlehrer mit einem Diplom des Städtischen Konservatoriums von Barcelona und einer Spezialisierung in spanischer Musik an der Frank-Marshall-Akademie – gegründet von Enrique Granados, ehemalige Direktorin Alicia de Larrocha.

Mein Unterrichtsplan ist umfassend und progressiv, wodurch die Ergebnisse sehr effektiv sind. Ich lege großen Wert auf sicheres Blattspiel, eine saubere Klaviertechnik und die Korrektur falscher Angewohnheiten wie schlechte Haltung, Verspannungen oder ungleichmäßige Anschlagtechnik.

Die Methode basiert auf der Schule von Enrique Granados und seiner Anschlagtechnik: klanglicher „Relief-Effekt“ und richtiger Pedalgebrauch.

Der Unterricht ist in drei Abschnitte gegliedert: Technikübungen, Etüden und Repertoire.
Zusätzlich biete ich – falls gewünscht – Musiktheorie, Solfeggio, Gehörbildung, Chor- und Partituranalyse an.

Mit über 30 Jahren Erfahrung passe ich jede Stunde individuell an die Bedürfnisse und das Niveau des Schülers an – für Kinder, Jugendliche und Erwachsene. Die Unterrichtsdauer beträgt 60 Minuten.

Unterrichtssprachen: Englisch, Spanisch und Katalanisch.
Experience / Qualifications
Ich verfüge über mehr als 30 Jahre Erfahrung als Klavierlehrerin. Ich habe einen Hochschulabschluss im Fach Klavier mit Schwerpunkt spanische Musik von der Marshall Academy in Barcelona, ​​die von Frank Marshall, einem Schüler von Enrique Granados, gegründet wurde.

This class focuses on professional music notation and practical arranging using Sibelius.

You will learn how to create clean, readable and performance-ready scores – from piano reductions to small ensemble arrangements. The emphasis is not only on software operation, but on real-world workflow: layout, part extraction, clarity, structure and professional presentation.

This is not a DAW or beat production course. It is designed for musicians, composers or students who want to improve their notation skills and learn how to prepare scores at a professional level.

Lessons are adapted to your experience level and can focus on technical software skills, arranging techniques, or the complete process from musical idea to finished score.

Welcome to my guitar courses!

I am a graduate of the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz with a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Guitar and am currently pursuing a Master's degree, which I expect to complete in 2026. From 2025, I will be studying Instrumental and Vocal Pedagogy (IGP) with a focus on Jazz Guitar at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz.

With over 9 years of teaching experience, I have worked with students of all ages and experience levels.

Every student is unique – therefore, lessons are individually tailored to your musical interests and goals.

What we can work on together in class:

1.Guitar & fretboard knowledge
Learn to truly understand your instrument – this will not only help you learn your favorite songs, but also help you make music creatively.

2.Song accompaniment
Develop your skills as a rhythm guitarist: chords, strumming and fingerstyle techniques, rhythmic patterns in different styles.

3. Improvisation
Especially essential in jazz – together we work on the necessary tools such as arpeggios, triads, theoretical basics and phrasing.

4.Rhythm training
Improve your sense of time and develop a solid rhythmic foundation – essential for any musical style.

5.Harmony, modern music theory & composition
Dive deeper into the structure of music and learn how to write your own pieces.

6. Playing technique
We work specifically on your technique – e.g. alternate picking, sweep picking, hybrid picking, legato, etc.

7.Repertoire
Learn songs and solos in your favorite style – whether rock, jazz, pop, funk, metal or more.

Whether you are just beginning or already advanced, I would be happy to support you in developing your full musical potential.
