I have studied Piano Performance and Musicology at top universities in the UK and graduated with distinction. I have 7 years of teaching experience and an ABRSM Diploma certificate for Piano Performance.
I design different lesson plans for every single student depending on their goals, levels, learning methods, interests, and abilities. You or your child will learn to become a complete musician, with not only performance techniques but also other highly transformative abilities: sightreading skills, aural skills, theory knowledge, and above all, good taste in music.
All levels are welcome.

No matter where you are in your musical journey, theory is necessary to gain musical freedom. Even knowing the basics allows an aspiring musician to start creating arrangements, compose, transpose, read music better, look for different colours in harmony, and much more.

I have designed a course that will bring students through the aspects of theory, notation, harmony, structure and form to help them become more fluent in reading, composing or performing.

Whether you are picking up the guitar for the very first time, preparing for Trinity, ABRSM or Rockschool examinations, developing your improvisation skills, or learning to write and perform your own music, lessons will be tailored to your individual goals, interests, and experience level.

I strongly believe that students achieve their best results when learning is enjoyable, motivating, and adapted to their personal learning style. My aim is not only to develop technical ability, but also confidence, creativity, musicality, and a genuine passion for music.

I teach:

• Classical Guitar
• Acoustic Guitar
• Electric Guitar
• Fingerstyle Techniques
• Music Theory
• Improvisation and Soloing
• Songwriting and Composition
• Trinity, ABRSM and Rockschool Preparation
• GCSE Music Support

As a professional musician, composer, songwriter, recording artist, and educator with more than twenty years of teaching experience, I bring both practical and academic expertise to every lesson. I have independently released multiple albums, composed music for theatre productions, and performed throughout Europe.

Lessons are available online or in person and are suitable for motivated students aged 10 and above, from complete beginners to advanced players.

My name's Luca and I've been a full-time professional musician for the past 10 years. I mainly work as a session musician and recording artist/producer, and also as a private guitar tutor.
My goal when it comes to teaching is to share my knowledge and passion for music and to help you improving and having as much enjoyment from it as I have for it.

I base my lessons on my student’s ambitions and on their weaknesses, so they can improve quickly and efficiently, without loosing interest on the instrument, and so they can reach their goals, giving them a personalised lesson plan, having fun and playing different styles and techniques. Everyone is welcome to join my teaching plan if they want to spice up their playing or simply start from scratch.

I specialise in all popular musical styles, such as Pop, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Rock and more, on both electric and acoustic guitar. I'm extremely passionate in music theory, composition, arranging, and also music production. If you're interested in developing your skills in any of these areas, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

To improve your confidence in singing and performance, or to greatly improve technique and skill level, these singing lessons are for you!

An hour class starts with technique exercises, including body awareness, and then moves into repertoire for the last half an hour. Repertoire is provided, and backing tracks are given for practise.

Above all, individualised support and encouragement means that lessons are always fun and inspiring!

Two keywords form the base of the singing technique I teach: relaxation and engagement. Inspired by the Alexander technique, we need the body to be completely free from any muscle tension before and after producing a sound. Then, to create a sound of quality, the body also needs to be engaged and free. By releasing all the unnecessary tension, you will be able to sing all the arias of your dreams. I will give some weekly exercises in singing and music theory and we will correct them together during the lesson.
I was part of the choir of the French public radio broadcaster for 7 years. I have a diploma in Music theory from the CRR of Boulogne-Billancourt. I even have a degree in Pop music and I am currently finishing my Master's in musical theatre and composition.
My lessons are for all ages, all levels, and all voices. I specialised in the voice of Countertenor.

I believe that anyone can play guitar.

We don't all arrive through the same path, and rarely with the same goals in mind, but I do believe we can all do it if we are willing to put in the time.

Are you a parent looking for a teacher for a youth's first instrument?
Perhaps you have always wanted to try the guitar but had countless excuses not to?
Maybe you are already a player but you wish to improve and feel stuck playing the same things?

Among other things, I can teach you:

*How to play chords and scales
*Music theory and how to apply it on the guitar
*How to transcribe a guitar part
*How to rearrange a song for the guitar
*Sound and effects
*How to improvise
*How to accompany a singer

Regardless of where you're coming from, or where you want to go with it - I will be happy to help learn this wonderful instrument.

There is more to learning how to play the violin than simply getting to know the instrument. It connects you to numerous likeminded people, includes you in a wonderful community and teaches you many core values that are essential in everyday life. It is scientifically proven that music making benefits your well-being, stimulating creativity and exploring a world unto itself. The class is completely adjustable to the student’s needs, meeting one where they are and working towards mutually set goals.

Music theory (and/or music composition) lessons for students of all ages and abilities.

Whether you're hoping to pass a music theory exam, or you need help with the composition or listening side of GCSE or A-Level Music, or if you're simply looking to learn some music theory to help with your playing, I can help you.

I have 13 years' experience teaching music theory and composition. I'm a pianist and composer, with a thorough understanding of all instruments. I can cater the lessons uniquely to your level and needs, whether you're an absolute beginner or you're an experienced musician looking to deepen your knowledge of music theory. I cover all sorts of styles, including Classical, Jazz and Pop/Rock.

My lessons are friendly and encouraging, using audio examples and helpful diagrams. My students feel better equipped to play music and reach their goals as a result.

"I have been teaching privately and in music schools for over 20 years, a variety of styles and techniques from beginners to advanced. Wether you are just starting or can already play, I can help you develop a solid practice routine that will target specific areas of playing, but, most importantly, I want you to develop your own voice on the instrument just as I'm always constantly doing. I believe every musician is constantly learning, music is a journey, so come aboard!"
