Let’s play...

I am a solo entertainer, who performs with guitar and piano. In my early ages i performed as a electro guitar player in the bands, after I performed on a big cruise ships as a solo entertainer. In my lessons I’m helping the people who likes to be a solo artist. In this process I’m teaching singing and playing at the same time with an any instrument that candidate choose.

we start our class from the beginner level which we start learning the notes and where they are on the fret board and incase you have a different instrument as well will get to teach you were to find them then we introduce you to key signatures and learn the basic scales and chords so you could start composing your own small piece of music

My basic principle and method in piano teaching are to show how to work on piano as a self-education. Most students cannot continue their studies after they stop working with a teacher. I explain the efficient ways of working with the instrument. I suggest taking 4-8 hours of lessons per month. Each lesson can be between 1-2 hours. It depends on the level of the student.
During the class, I assign students to have at least 20 minutes of finger exercises, then to work on pieces that were individually programmed with the student. Additionally, I give listening, reading, and video as homework. I allow students to send me any progress or questions via recorded video or video interview so that they can follow their work until the next class.

My journey with the bağlama began in my childhood and evolved into a lifelong career as a professional musician and state-certified educator. With over two decades of teaching experience in both public schools and private instruction, I offer a highly patient, structured, and adaptable approach to mastering the bağlama.

My teaching philosophy is simple: I focus on what you can do first. By building your confidence in a pressure-free environment, we will naturally progress to more advanced techniques. All online sessions are broadcast from my professional analog recording studio, guaranteeing that every microtone and dynamic detail is heard perfectly.

What We Will Cover in Our Lessons:

Core Mechanics: Developing flawless articulation, seamless slurs, and rhythmic arpeggio patterns.

Maqam (Makam) Theory: A deep dive into the microtonal system, traditional scales, and the theoretical foundation of Anatolian folk music.

Improvisation (Taqsim/Taksim): Learning how to express emotions freely and spontaneously within the rules of traditional maqams.

Harmonic Exploration: Applying functional harmony to traditional bağlama playing.

Alternate Tunings (Düzenler): Mastering various tunings (such as Bağlama düzeni, Bozuk/Kara düzen) to expand your playing style and versatility.

Comprehensive Repertoire: Curating a personalized list of pieces, ranging from historical folk songs to contemporary arrangements, matching your skill level and musical taste.

Dear Students,

Since my graduation in 2016, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of students, from beginners to advanced players, and from ages 7 to 70. Some of my students are professional musicians, while others simply enjoy learning music as a hobby.

No matter the level or goal, we all understand how important it is to build a strong foundation—starting with proper breathing techniques and correct embouchure position.

What will we learn in class?
• How to breathe properly in order to control your sound
• How to position your embouchure correctly, and how much pressure is needed for a good tone
• How to place your fingers on the instrument and develop finger speed
• How to read sheet music and solfège
• How to play songs and musical pieces

I’m excited to guide you through your musical journey!

You will learn from basics to orchestral repertoire, solo pieces and chamber music. You will also have the choice of learning music theory. I'm a professional bassoon player graduated from the University of Arts of Zurich (ZHdK) from the bassoon class of Matthias Racz.

Music, like all forms of art, is an activity closely connected to a person's life, emotions, thoughts, and psychology. Based on this foundation, music lessons are designed to enhance self-awareness and understanding abilities. These lessons can be conducted through instruments such as piano, guitar, solfège, and harmony. Essentially, these lessons prioritize "musical literacy." The main aim is to equip individuals with the ability to express themselves using the language of music and to understand what is expressed in musical notation as if it were a language. These lessons, designed with this purpose and foundation in mind, initially focus on grasping behavioral, imitative, empathetic, and semantic relationships through improvisation exercises. Subsequently, the aim is to complete the process by identifying the meanings embedded in musical notation.

Piano Lessons in Bebek, Istanbul – Children & Adults

With 15 years of teaching experience, I offer individual piano lessons for children from age 3, as well as teenagers and adults, at Poco Piano, a boutique music studio located in Bebek, Istanbul.

My approach combines classical piano training with music theory, sight-reading, ear training and musicianship, creating a strong musical foundation rather than focusing only on learning individual pieces.

For young beginners (ages 3–6), lessons are adapted to the child's attention span and developmental stage. The first goal is to build a positive relationship with the instrument and teacher while gradually introducing rhythm, pitch, keyboard orientation and basic musical concepts.

For school-age students, teenagers and adults, lessons may include classical repertoire, technique, sight-reading, music theory and preparation for internationally recognised music examinations.

ABRSM & LCME Exam Preparation

I provide preparation for ABRSM and London College of Music (LCME) practical and theory examinations. Lessons can include repertoire preparation, technical work, sight-reading, aural skills and music theory according to the student's level and examination requirements.
