From 64 C$ /h

I am a Pop-Soul singer-songwriter, and recent graduate of a Bachelor's Degree at Falmouth University, studying Popular Music. I also have many years of classical training, including Voice at the Junior Guildhall School of Music.

About Me

I am lucky enough to have been playing music since I was 3 years old and having the opportunity to follow this passion and meet so many inspiring people along the way. Not only have they shown me beautiful music, but the importance of the courage of conviction in your creative and musical abilities. I will help you find this through our lessons together.

I ran my school, teaching girls singing technique, and improving their confidence with performing. With my years of training, I can teach Classical technique, Soul, Funk, Pop, and Jazz. Together we will learn the intricacies of technique, but also how to tell a story through music and perform confidently through self-expression.

We can also work on songwriting in any style you like and help you find your voice through developing a compositional toolkit, confidence in your own ideas, and the ability to tell your own narrative through song.

In terms of my own career as a singer-songwriter, I have toured across the UK, had two of my singles chosen as BBC favorite find of the week, and was interviewed and performed on BBC Radio Cornwall and BBC Radio London and was featured on Melatrois, Surf Radio, and Source FM. I am a featured artist for BBC's 'Stay At Home Sessions' with my own music and a spotlit interview. I partnered with WarChild to raise money for the coronavirus fund for people in vulnerable warzones, featured on a charity album, 'One and All' to raise money for the Cornwall Community Foundation coronavirus relief fund. I have performed in venues ranging from the Royal Albert Hall aged 11 with a Classical Music performance to summer festivals with my own compositions.

Education

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Popular Music from Falmouth University, which included 3 years of studying songwriting, performance, musicology (the philosophy, history, psychology, and sociology of music) which was a fundamental part of writing my dissertation and industry training (legal, promotional, marketing, production, etc...)

2 years of Voice at Junior Guildhall School of Music and Drama, which gives students the equivalent to ABRSM Grade 8 standard by the time of leaving.

Experience / Qualifications

I have had 11 years of vocal training in different genres, compositional training for over four years and have taught performance technique to the school Glee Club, organized lessons for the school Music Club which I founded and ran, taught and played music for 'Singing For the Brain,' a charity for people struggling with dementia where they sing once a week to find joy and forget about the rest.

Welcome to my online Piano Class.
I am Maria, and I will happily help you achieve your musical goals, from zero to the top.
I love all student levels, but only towards the CLASSICAL piano, of any eras' works and composers.
Don't be afraid, my lesson is human-friendly 😊
Everything goes step by step! Outside the lesson time, I send you lots of short videos to support your practice through the week.

As each student is different, I focus on each ones' needs and I am always creative in helping you learn through the simplest ways - "if it's easy, it's correct", that's my motto!
My greatest happiness is to watch my students grow, overcome any limit and expand in full potential!

As a result, many of my students have won top prizes at major international competitions, as the IBLA Grand Prize, the Spoleto International Piano Competition, the Bach au Jazz (Lilia Boyadjieva) International Piano Competition and many others. And also, at renown online competitions, as The Royal, the IYMC, the Forte Academy, and many-many others.
So, in case you need a competition or exam preparation, here you are at the right place!
I will help you discover the advanced piano technique, and the ways to achieve your best musical interpretation. Also, very important, I'll help you understand and approach each composers' unique style, and, also, secure your concert / stage presence, with simple and effective solutions for memorisation and control.

I am a very proud piano teacher, as on Jan 11 2026 four young students of mine were awarded by the renown American Competition "The Royal Foundation" and were invited and performed at a Gala at the Carnegie Hall in New York City! Also, these kids were invited to participate to the Juilliard School festival, with masterclass and lessons, a fabulous chance and experience that I wish all young pianists could have!

On Sept 1st 2024 three awarded students of mine were invited to perform at The DiMenna Classical Centre of Music in Manhattan, from another American competition, the International Youth Music Competition.

I wish I can always bring such great opportunities and successes to all of my "piano kids"!

I offer individual violin lessons for beginners, advanced players and music students.

My particular focus is on Baroque music and historically informed performance practice. For the past three years, I have been intensively studying the Baroque violin and the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. In my teaching, I convey not only technical fundamentals but also stylistic understanding, phrasing, articulation, and the characteristic sound of Baroque music.

In addition, I naturally also teach the classical violin repertoire. Lessons cover playing technique, bowing, intonation, vibrato, scales, musical expression, and efficient practice.

I'm happy to support you with entrance exams, competitions, orchestra auditions, or when learning new pieces. Each lesson is individually tailored to your goals and skill level.

Mijn lessen zijn persoonlijk, gestructureerd en ontspannen. Mijn doel is niet alleen om je te leren piano spelen, maar ook om je muzikale inzicht, creativiteit en zelfvertrouwen te ontwikkelen.

If you are interested in composition, music production, songwriting and performance but feel like you need some technical or creative motivation, this is the lesson for you. If you feel discouraged or overwhelmed by the technical aspects of a creative process, this is the lesson for you.

In these lessons, we will work on making the most of what we have through creative-problem solving and inspiration-hunting. You bring your ideas and we develop them together, have challenging conversations and explore alternative approaches to composition, production and songwriting to get you closer to your vision. We will also explore the many possibilities of working with a live band, ensemble or orchestra and how to encourage a healthy but focused work process.

Some more things covered in the process:

- Logic Pro X (mixing, producing, sampling, midi, audio recording)

- Composition (score writing / editing, notation software, orchestration / arrangement, music theory, composing for film / video)

- Songwriting (arranging, alternative score-writing, band communication, demo-making)

- Experimental production (eg. no-input mixing, prepared instruments, effect-pedals)

If you struggle with vocal fatigue, throat tightness on high notes, fear of pitch-matching, or non-surgical hoarseness, you can leave those obstacles behind. Singing and healthy voice production are not fixed, innate talents; they are learnable skills rooted in vocal biomechanics, nervous system regulation, and mind-auditory harmony.

At the core of my teaching is an anatomical and holistic approach that frees the voice from rigid, high-pressure drills. I provide a safe, judgment-free space where mistakes are welcomed as a natural part of growth, helping you release involuntary tension in the jaw, tongue root, neck, and posture.

In our lessons, we focus on:

Biomechanical Range & Ease: Expanding your vocal range and hitting bright, powerful high notes without squeezing or straining the throat.

Vocal Health & SOVT Recovery: Restoring vocal stamina and clarity in cases of functional hoarseness, raspiness, or early vocal fatigue using semi-occluded vocal tract (SOVT / Lax Vox) and vocal massage techniques.

Pitch Matching & Ear Coordination: Eliminating the fear of singing out of tune with step-by-step auditory exercises designed to accurately connect your ear and vocal muscles.

Anxiety & Postural Alignment: Managing performance anxiety and body tension through nervous-system-calming breathwork and balanced postural habits.

Occupational Voice Coaching: Strain-free speaking and stamina training for teachers, public speakers, lawyers, and voice professionals.

Tailored Digital Practice: Custom audio exercises provided after each lesson to solidify healthy muscle memory at home.

I can teach you how to sing easily and freely,
- breathe correctly and naturally,
-and help expand the range.
-And all this in 3-4 months
My students are laureates of international competitions!
