About Me

Born in Sofia, Stan iB (Stanislav) took the piano at the age of six. Exposed to classical music, he was also strongly influenced by Bulgarian popular music during his studies at Filip Koutev.

While living in Greece in the late 1990s, Stan iB was interested in jazz music.
Although classical and folk sounds touched him for the first time in years to come, Stan iB would focus his eyes musically on jazz, powered by the sounds of Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, and Herbie Hancock. His interest in jazz music and improvisation will take him to the Netherlands, where he completed his studies.

In January 2017, Stan iB released Exploration, his first solo piano album featuring original piano compositions. The same year in December he also released his second album Influences followed by Introspection which was released in January 2019.

His new jazz trio album Confluences was released on January 6, 2020. Stan iB trio is a project that performs an original repertoire, his own compositions framed in jazz without complexes, open to all kinds of influences and especially to rhythms and Balkan tunes.

Bachelor degree in piano at UFRJ(Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro) / 15 years of experience
playing piano

I have been successful in helping students who have suffered from technical problems, tendonitis, and excessive tension when playing.

With me, you will prevent these types of problems from happening to you. I will teach you accordingly to the repertoire you want to play, solving technical problems in the music.

It's going to be a pleasure helping you. See you soon in our class!

CLASSES IN SPANISH, CATALAN, FRANÇAIS, DEUTSCH, ENGLISH

I teach singing, piano, music awareness/introduction and solfège.

I live in Madrid and I'm a student pursuing a higher degree in singing (jazz and contemporary music). I dedicate a good part of my time to teaching (music and language) through private online or in-person lessons.

I started giving private lessons to children at their homes when I lived in Germany. During the 2022-2023 academic year, I taught piano to students of all ages at the RedMusik Music School (Igualada, Catalonia).

I studied piano and other instruments for over 15 years at the UGDA and the Luxembourg City Conservatory. After many years of solfège and piano, I obtained the Conservatory's "Première Mention" certificate with the highest possible grade, "Très Bien".

A good music lesson should include not only technique and reading sheet music, but also theoretical and harmonic study, improvisation, recreational playing with the instrument, and ear training and rhythm exercises. I am interested in designing the lesson creatively and adapting it to the needs and desires of the student.

I hope I can encourage you to move forward with your musical learning, and if that's the case, don't hesitate to write to me with any questions you may have :)

See you soon!

These classes seek to break with the archaic academic models anchored in the study, repetition and memorization of pieces, scales and studies that can be so heavy.
These classes seek to adapt 100% to the needs, tastes and influences of the student.
You can sign up regardless of your age and level.
From a pleasant work focused on satisfying the subjective concerns of each student, we will develop our technique and our knowledge and mastery of the instrument.
Don't waste time and sign up! you will not regret!

I offer a patient, encouraging, and structured approach that balances technique, musicality, and creativity—making lessons both fun and effective.
You will learn:
Proper hand position and posture
Note reading and rhythm
Scales, chords, and finger exercises
Interpretation and expression
Music theory (as needed)
Playing by ear and improvisation (optional)
Pieces from classical, pop, jazz, or your favorite genre
I design each lesson around the student’s pace and preferences, ensuring progress without pressure. For children, I incorporate interactive and engaging methods that keep learning exciting. For adults, I focus on achievable goals, relaxation, and musical enjoyment—whether you're starting from scratch or returning after years.
Lessons can be taught in English, [your native language, if applicable], and are available online or in-person depending on your location.
With years of teaching experience and a passion for helping students grow, I’m here to guide you on your musical journey.

You can learn music at any age. I give piano, singing and musical language classes to both children and adults, beginner and advanced levels. I prepare everything from official entrance tests to musical education to learning the songs you like the most. For me it is very important that the student understands the musical and technical concepts of the instrument to be able to gain autonomy in their learning every day. I create personalized classes because I believe that to feel like playing, we have to approach music from taste and enjoyment.

Hello everyone, I teach piano lessons with music theory for all ages. My methods are tailored to my students' musical goals and tastes. From there, the lessons, techniques, and teaching are personalized. In other words, my approach is based on a passion for music and the creation of a motivating and enriching learning environment.

Hello, I'm Lucia, nice to meet you!

I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Music, specializing in Performance: Piano, from the "Manuel Massotti Littel" Conservatory of Music in Murcia. This year, I will be studying for a Master's Degree in New Technologies for Contemporary Music: Creation and Performance at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Madrid.

I have two years of experience teaching music, both in Academies/Schools/Professional Music Education Centers and in private lessons.

I can help you achieve your various musical goals. I'd be happy to accompany you on your exciting musical journey!

Additionally, after receiving the Amancio Ortega Foundation scholarship, I had the opportunity to study my first year of high school in Calgary, Canada, so I have a bilingual level of English, with a Cambridge-certified C2 level. And in my third year of college, I had the opportunity to study at the Escola Superior de Música e Artes do Esperáculo (ESMAE) in Porto, Portugal, so I also have a fluent level of Portuguese. We can offer classes in Spanish, English, or Portuguese!

*North Madrid based*
I'm Aoife (Ifa), an infant & primary school teacher from Ireland, currently working in a private British school in Chamartín.
As a teacher, I am enthusiastic, adaptable and dedicated to delivering the highest quality of learning. I target lessons to ensure each student’s needs and wants are being met, whilst ensuring enjoyment and interest.
I speak Spanish & English, so don’t worry if you are nervous about your child’s language level.

For 20 years, I trained as a classical pianist with the Royal Irish Academy of Music. Yearly, I achieved high marks as evidenced below in my transcripts. I am extremely skilled in playing various genres of piano as well as musical theory. I have taught private piano 1:1 lessons for 5 years, although for enjoyment, not classically.

Conditions:
- For student comfort, I can travel to your location after 5pm each evening.
- Lessons are 45 minutes due to the fact that 1-hour exhausts the learning process and decreases attention, concentration and enjoyment for children.
- To maintain and develop new skills, children should play the piano independently between lessons.
- I will teach musical theory (reading music, rhythm, how songs are composed), musical literacy (musical chords/ scales, exercises) and songs (sight-reading, songs chosen by student) according to each student’s ability.

I have worked as a private tutor in both Brussels and Spain. I have experience teaching music theory, composition, singing, songwriting, and music production at Reaper.

I adapt to the needs of the student with ease, and from the first class I develop a personalized study plan, so that you can achieve your goals ;)

My specialization is classical piano (I've been playing it for as long as I can remember), but I've been training in jazz, modern, neoclassical, salsa, and flamenco piano for almost a decade.
In addition to my parallel training at the Conservatory in piano and singing (Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles), I have a Diploma in Musical Production and Composition (TAI ARTS)
