I'm a professional harpist from France, passionate about the harp since I'm a child, it would be a pleasure to share and help you to learn more about this beautiful instrument.
I taught 8 years when I was living in Belgium and I always loved sharing my knowledge about the harp with my student. I like the lessons to be enjoyable by a fun and engaging way in order to make my students achieve their goals, and build a strong basis to help them grow and expand their musicality.

Now also available online :) We just tried it and it works surprisingly well! 💚✨

Hello curious souls!
Welcome to my profile.
Here’s what I do:
- teach individual piano lessons accordingly to each student’s age, level and musical taste
- teach music theory, history and ear training
- help students with their own compositions
- arrange music for different instrumental combos
- prepare students for exams, performances and auditions
- play an accompaniment on the piano

I offer two tracks for piano lessons:
Bee-Thovens - where students learn to read music by composing their own songs and Buzzin' Bees, where we dive right into note reading and exploring the classics.

In my Bee-Strings classes, I take the same approaches with my guitar and ukulele students.

My general music classes - The Bee Hive, for pre-k 3, pre-k4, kindergarten, first and second-grade classes, include playing percussion instruments, singing and movement. We even incorporate the keyboard and ukulele.

I am a graduate of the Royal College of Music in London, where I lived since 2009.

Individual lessons enables me to tailor and adapt my teaching to every pupil's needs; helping them to learn the repertoire or skills that each individual requires. I cover styles such as classical, contemporary, pop, jazz and film music.

I have prepared and entered pupils entry exams/auditions of conservatoires and music colleges of Spain and Europe as well as for composition competitions as I have won more then 30 awards myself and have been adjudicator of some composition competitions. I was also a professor in the Music faculty at Madrid's 'University Centre TAI', the Trinity Music Academy in London and The Conservatoire of Barcelona

Learn to play the Shinobue/ Fue.
Book also available to learn with original songs and more.
Learn at different levels: Beginner, Intermediate and advanced. Learn to better your sound and to discover different techniques. All levels will benefit from the lessons.

I am a compassionate and enthusiastic teacher dedicated to helping my students reach for the stars! One of my defining characteristics is my genuine interest in the longterm happiness and progression of my students. I am committed to providing students with a safe and positive environment where they feel supported throughout their musical journeys. I absolutely love finding ways in which I can personalize my lessons to best fit each student. Music education is not one size fits all and I want to honor the different ways students learn. I gain so much happiness knowing that my lessons fit the needs of my students.

I am dedicated to nurturing a love for music in each student. I aim to positively enhance the student's strength, dexterity, and technique while building a lasting interest in music. In early lessons, I focus on developing an understanding of the student's goals and personal interests. I guide students to create sustainable practice routines, reinforcing the importance of discipline, responsibility and hard work. I emphasize building a strong foundation early on so that future musical progress is always supported by a strong core of musical knowledge. Typical lessons involve scales, sight reading, and a piece that the student chooses.

My goal as a teacher is specifically designed to help you achieve your goals as an artist and a musician.

I teach violin and viola lessons with the aim of improving technique, musicality, and interest in the instrument. Learning a string instrument can be challenging, but I believe it is also one of the most rewarding endeavors you can undertake.

I focus on sound production and facility of the instrument, and try to make sure that every student is learning repertoire that helps them and interests them.

I offer lessons in guitar/bass, piano/keyboard (classical/experimental/pop/jazz), composition/songwriting, production/recording (DAWs, mixing, editing etc). No matter what level we're on, as musicians and artists we're all part of a wonderful and strange ongoing human project, and I believe that it's my duty to share the knowledge and skills that I've accumulated throughout the course of my life and career.

Over the years, my work has branched out in many different stylistic directions but I am firmly rooted in avant-garde/classical music. I hold two degrees in composition: a Master of Music '11 from the Yale School of Music where I also taught undergraduate lessons in composition; and a BA in Music Composition from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Sweden ('09). I've written large scale works for orchestra, chamber pieces, solo music for a variety of instruments, works with multichannel electronics, and works for theater and dance. For those interested, my recorded work is easily accessible online on a variety of labels and my scores are available from Schott Music New York.

As a pianist, I began formal training at age 6 and worked through much of the classical repertoire before deciding to focus fulltime on composition. I am also an accomplished studio musician, improviser (jazz/free/experimental), and a member of several groups/ensembles.

A firm believer in the use of intuition as a primary tool in music making of all kinds, I would like our lessons to be shaped according to your needs and interests. No matter what level you are on, my goal will always be to offer you exactly what you need at each given step. I treat each student as a unique collaborative effort.

Apart from technical and aesthetic approaches, it is usually very difficult and takes a long time to find one's 'voice' as a performer, writer or producer; this is inevitable except in rare cases, and I will endeavour to teach you to trust in your own abilities, overcome insecurities and doubts, and connect your artistic practice with a more unified mindset that goes beyond imagined technical and stylistic limitations and aesthetic policing. The main point is to eradicate unnecessary obstacles to your creativity and learn to trust your intuition and choices.

I am a singer, pianist, and general music educator based in Brooklyn, New York, where I work as a teacher at an award-winning music studio.

Having graduated summa cum laude in 2017 with a degree in Music Education: Voice from West Chester University of Pennsylvania (WCU), I have studied various methods and approaches to illustrating musical concepts including music theory, music history, ear training, and applied lessons in voice and all major instruments.

I work with students of all ages -- children and adults -- and teach ALL styles of singing! Anybody has the ability to sing! If you can speak, you CAN sing! My teaching harnesses the natural sounds everybody makes with their voices.

Lessons include:
- Voice Technique: Pitch, Breath Support, Vibrato, Registration (Chest, Mix, Head Voice), Diction (in multiple languages such as English, Italian, German, French, Etc.), Releasing Tension, Posture, and Riffs & Runs.
- Musicianship: Dynamics, Phrasing, Reading and Analyzing Music, Ear Training, and Basic Music Theory.
- Performance Technique: Stage Presence, Character/Storytelling, Overcoming Performance Anxiety, and Connecting with Your Audience.

What makes a good song? This is exactly what we are going to find out. Exploring many of same techniques that are dealt with during our Composition Lessons, but in a broader more macro way. These lessons are geared to bring out your inner storyteller. By analyzing the great songs of the past and learning what makes them so effective, students will be able to internalize those tricks and techniques and add them to their own musician's toolbox. These tools will prove to be invaluable not only in crafting and shaping their musical stories, but also in overcoming writer's block. This program will ultimately help your songs reach their full potential and give you the ability to reach people on a deeper, more profound emotional level.

Discover the joy of singing with personalized voice lessons designed for all levels, from beginners to advanced singers. I focus on helping each student build a solid vocal technique, expand their range, and develop confidence while singing the music they love.

As a graduate of Berklee College of Music and an experienced vocal coach, I have taught students of all ages in both private and group settings. My lessons are fun, encouraging, and tailored to your goals — whether that’s singing pop, musical theatre, Bossa Nova, or preparing for auditions.

In addition, I can incorporate music theory and ear training into our sessions to strengthen your overall musicianship. Together, we’ll explore healthy vocal habits, interpretation, and performance skills to make you a confident, expressive singer.
