Regardless of your age or your professional background, you are welcome to take piano lessons ranging from classical to jazz, including current and traditional world music and even film music! I also teach notions of music theory, improvisation and composition as a bonus. Let your creative imagination run free!
Music brings a lot. Whether it's emotions, personal satisfaction, moments of grace, whether you're a spectator or on stage, encounters and exchanges that are so interesting with other musicians...

My goal is to send you enough motivation and pleasure so that you never give up on this inexhaustible source of joy and discovery.

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! :)

Graduated in musical education from the Haute Ecole de Musique in Geneva, I offer my help to review a viola and / or music theory class!
Patient and loving to work with children, I adapt and find a solution to help learning and memorizing lessons.

I bring my help to clarify a lesson of music theory not included, to help consolidate its achievements to be after a few times, more autonomous.

The clarinet is a fascinating instrument. Its woody timbre, its tessitura close to the voice offers a wide range of musical directions. Whether you want to play classical, jazz, song or world music, we will progress together to connect the song and the instrument. To develop the breath, to consolidate its supports, to feel the rhythm and to shine the melodies, that is the objective!

I adapt my method according to each student but here are the central points of my educational work:

- Warm up: stretching and breathing

- Sound work: beak, held notes, harmonics *

- Technique: ranges, transpositions *

- Repertoire: Piece being learned, reading *, improvisation.

* confirmed students

SINGING

I attach particular importance to the link between song and instrument. Singing the songs and even the scales improves the musicality, the phrasing, the accuracy to the instrument.

MEMORY

As much as possible, I ask to memorize the pieces. Knowing how to sing a song before playing it is for me the best way to integrate it.

Hi!

I am an accomplished classical pianist and experienced teacher who offers you piano lessons, at all levels from beginner to advanced, for fun or for serious ones (preparation for competitions, auditions, exams, etc.).

I am a doctoral candidate at the University of Montreal (Canada) and am also pursuing a second Master's degree at the HEM in Geneva. I also have another Master's degree from the first institution as well as a diploma in performance. My doctoral research focuses on the neuropsychology of music learning and its applications in performance.

I had the pleasure of playing with orchestras and as a soloist at festivals in Canada, Germany, Austria, Spain and Switzerland, as well as being the winner of several competitions and the recipient of numerous awards.

I have more than 15 years of experience as an interpreter and pedagogue (even at university level as a lecturer). I am very dedicated to my students and I offer you dynamic, personalized courses to meet the particular needs of each person.

Courses are available in Geneva, Lausanne, Gland, Nyon, Rolle, Coppet and other nearby cities.

Lessons are also available in English.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

See you soon, I hope!

My method is focused on maximizing course customization. If you are a beginner, I will try to make you ring some melodies in no time, and if you are more advanced the idea is to make you progress according to your expectations. I am moreover an eclectic musician and I am open to all challenges ...

I place great importance on each student's inner motivation and sensitivity to sound. My approach aims to develop listening skills, timbre awareness, and musical expression, while helping each student overcome their inhibitions with personalized learning methods. With over nine years of experience, including several years at the Neuhof-Stockfeld music school in Strasbourg, I adapt my lessons to each student's personality, needs, and pace. Whether you are a beginner or advanced, child or adult, I offer tailored guidance in a supportive yet challenging environment.

A graduate of the Higher School of Music and currently pursuing a Master's degree in Performance, with extensive experience teaching in schools, conservatories, and private lessons, I offer piano lessons tailored to all ages and levels, from complete beginners to advanced musicians. My method is based on a structured progression, blending technique, musicality, and the joy of playing. I pay particular attention to posture, tone quality, rhythm, and listening skills, in order to build a solid foundation or refine an already advanced level.

Music is a passion that has been with me since childhood and has truly helped me find my path. It is this passion that I seek to share: the desire to progress, to understand the instrument, to push oneself, and to experience the simple joy of making the piano sing. I want each student to be able to progress at their own pace while discovering what truly resonates with them in music.
Lessons can be geared towards classical learning, exam preparation, building a personal repertoire, or simply the pleasure of playing for oneself. My goal is to combine high standards, enjoyment, and confidence, enabling each student to develop true musical independence.
