About Me
My method of teaching is very simple. I teach basic technique and skills for the flute. I also like to teach students how to improvise so that they don't get stuck at always having to read music. I like to introduce a variety of music to the lesson. This includes baroque style classical music, to modern styles, jazz, folk, world music ect...
I encourage the student to explore the soundand style that they want to play!
The flute is not very difficult to play but hard to master. I hope the experience of playing music is fun and rewarding.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Turkish reed flute is an essential instrument of Turkish Classcial Music. It has a deep and dense culture dating from 13. century around. If you want to learn about how to perform it you first need a teacher educated by masters on this field. As of many teachers you can find online but you make sure that not every tutor meets with traditional style.
Solfege and method are inseperable parts of the lessons. So for beginners and intermediate students must follow a compotent tutor to learn about the way of classic form.

I will help you find alternatives in many dimensions of technique and explore with you extended techniques and physical applications to individualize, clarify and amply your talents.

Studying music can be a great joy and source of profound fulfillment, but it can also be stressful and overwhelming. Learning how to balance workloads, develop practice habits that actually work for you, and also trying to avoid falling into the trap of comparing yourself to other artists can feel like an insurmountable task. Music also tends to lead the musician into perfectionism, and a feeling that no matter what you do, you're never really measuring up.

I am in the last semester of a Masters program in Vocal Performance. Throughout the 7 years I have studied voice academically throughout my Associates degree, Bachelors degree, and now my Masters degree, I've had to learn how to develop a more holistic approach towards my music studies, and strengthen my relationship to myself and my voice. In this class, I will share everything that I've learned in my journey, and tips on how to approach practice in a way that feels manageable, and yes, even enjoyable! We will discuss how to develop a mindset that can work FOR you, not against you. By the end of this class, I guarantee that you will feel happier as a musician, you will have a handle on how to structure practice sessions and tailor them to your specific needs, and you will feel confident as a musician, and perhaps also as a person.
