FREQUENT QUESTIONS

Do I need my own instrument?

Yes! It will be your companion on this journey. If you're just starting out, I suggest you rent it and eventually buy it.
I can help you check the equipment and advise you in everything I can.

What if I am a beginner?

Absolutely nothing, any musician who wants to learn is welcome in my class.

Keep in mind that if you have no notions of musical language, you must receive simultaneous classes to have basic notions.

You can't make music without knowing its language.

How often can we teach?

It depends on your circumstances, maturity and your schedule. I always try to adapt to the needs of my students, combining it with my concert schedule. For the little ones, I recommend shorter classes. If, for example, you work, classes every two weeks are a good option.

Where are the classes held?

, I teach classes only in my studio, since here I have all the scores, instruments, gadgets and facilities that I use to teach.

If you live far away, the online model works great, in fact, that's how all my students have passed the tests this year.

Both can also be combined effectively.

What are we going to work on in class?

What you want and need, depending on your goals eg. an entrance test, we will approach music as a science. That is to say from mathematics, acoustics, physics, neurology and anatomy of the human body.

We will work on the technique, methodology, research, historical analysis and similar procedures.

In class we will also practice the values of effort, perseverance, hard work or respect, in a relaxed way but without stopping working.

How will I achieve my goals?

Through supervision, honesty, and my total dedication, I love this job, and my students' successes are my own, as are their failures.

How much do I have to study?

The important thing is to be constant, depending on age and level. If the study is efficient, between 45min and 1h a day.
In addition, I will teach you study and memorization techniques so that you can progress quickly. It is important that you get a metronome.

What material did you bring to class?

Don't forget to bring your instrument and bow, Strap, rosin, correctors, sheet music, a notebook of staves and a normal notebook to jot down ideas and exercises.

What kind of teacher am I going to find?

Methodical. Consistent, empirical disciplined, flexible, relaxed, but above all, honest and empathic.

I work with a dynamic attitude, using ease to communicate in public, both live and by phone or virtually, I try to convey the illusion that Music gives me back. With versatility, I seek to establish ways to meet the needs of the student, thus perfecting my goals as a teacher. Delighted to learn and expand horizons with each experience.

In addition to teaching in general, the objective of the classes is personalized, it proposes to strengthen the natural abilities of the student, thus increasing his creative horizon, through a playful and fun system; learning, perfecting and playing.

My goal is to give enough tools to not need me or, in other words, use what I have learned to continue learning ...

The most important thing for me is listening to music. If you are studying music as a hobby or in preparation for your professional career, we will help you achieve the greatest efficiency and get the most out of it by making our job easier. It is clear that learning music requires discipline and work, but can be interesting and expandable.

The flexibility lies in the main features of my classes: My goal for my graduates is that they need a digital method that they have to adapt to their personal attitude and style. The offer of classes for individuals and private groups of all students and the duration of the course are also flexible and depend on the training of the student (most of the little ones that Suelen was able to aprovechar in the last media lessons). Classes can be in Spanish, English, Dutch or Greek.

Language and music theory are presented in all classes, but in an organic form and with a lot of immersion in practice.

¡No people interested in contacting the site! :) :)

I offer both individual lessons and group lessons for people of all ages.

In this course we will be introduced to a deeper and more interconnected musical knowledge through the piano. We will not only learn pieces for this instrument but we will also see the fundamentals of musical theory, we will practice intonation, auditory training (to recognize pitches, instrumental timbres, the structure of the pieces we listen to), improvisation and sound and musical creation (using sound and music technologies such as systems of harmony and counterpoint) and of course we will discuss historical musical events and reflect on different musical aesthetics.
The objective of the course is to gain a broad understanding of musical phenomena and thus gain perspective to guide us towards those instruments, genres, styles and musical professions that most attract us.

I am Violeta Amat, a pianist and actress living in Madrid.
I am looking for students interested in exploring music and/or theater from both a technical and creative perspective. My experience and training in theater have allowed me to develop a pedagogical approach that combines both disciplines: music and theater. Theatrical tools allow me to work with students on stage fright and the development of their own sound through activities involving fantasy, play, and imagination.
In this way, I teach both theater and music (piano) classes, either independently or by combining both disciplines.

Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Camila and I am a singer and singing teacher.

Let me tell you a little about myself. I'm Cuban and I began my studies in opera singing in Cuba 20 years ago. I graduated in Chile with a degree in Musical Arts from the Andrés Bello University and I'm also a Senior Performer specializing in Opera Singing from the Modern School of Music.

I have had the honor of working with personalities of Chilean classical music such as Cristina Gallardo-Domas (my mentor and coach) and Verónica Villarroel, for whom I work, since I am a singing teacher at her academy.
In addition to my experience as an opera singer, I also have experience in popular music and mixed repertoire such as musicals.
