Passionate about teaching, I have devoted a large part of my time to it for 10 years with varied experiences in France and Argentina.

Whatever the age of the student, beginner level or confirmed, I offer private lessons of violin and viola.

No knowledge or musical notion is necessary beforehand, the theoretical achievements are made as and when the discovery of the instrument.

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

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.

I am a passionate guitarist and guitar teacher with over 10 years of experience teaching guitar to beginners and intermediate players. My teaching approach stems from a deep love of music, from transcribing solos and developing a personal style to composing and arranging for an instrumental album currently in production. For me, teaching guitar is much more than simply transmitting techniques: it's about sharing a vision of music and guiding each student toward their own artistic expression.

🎸 Chords, rhythms, picking, fingerstyle and playing techniques
🎵 Music theory applied to the guitar, in a simple and progressive way
👂 Ear training and introduction to transcription
🎶 Varied repertoire: pop, rock, folk, blues and acoustic styles
🌍 Courses taught in French or English
👶🧑🧓 All ages welcome: children, adults and seniors

My teaching approach:
I firmly believe that every student is unique. My lessons combine technical rigor with creative freedom, so you progress both as a guitarist and as a well-rounded musician. Beyond technique, I help you develop your musical sensitivity and confidence on the instrument.
Alongside teaching, I continue to perform, record and actively work on my own musical projects, which ensures that teaching is rooted in real and living musical practice, and not in theory alone.

Why choose my courses?
✅ Fully bilingual profile: courses in French or English
✅ Available in person in Paris or online (throughout the French-speaking world)

For students preparing for entrance exams to the higher conservatory or a diploma in auditory education/musical training or even for students wishing to refine their auditory skills.

I was able to develop exercises and work on auditory analysis in my piano and music training classes, and I prepared several candidates (with good results!) for the music training and auditory education tests as part of access to a higher education center.

Always in joy and good humor, with the hand of rigor and study, I will be delighted to accompany you on this musical journey.

Methodology :

I use Mathieu Crickboom's Violin method with which I started the violin myself, in addition I use duets as well as studies and concertos that I propose according to the level and desires of the student, it will also be possible that the pieces practiced come from you, which I will enhance with a technical and musical framework. For the very young, I use an appropriate violin method, color games and a fun approach to reading notes allowing you to learn the basics of music without knowledge of mathematics or reading French.

I rely on the advice and knowledge that I have developed during my progression with the Professors, Instrumental Groups and Public Figures that I have frequented as well as on my interest in pedagogy and my monitoring of Master Classes on other students and myself to best promote the progress of each one.
During my Master's in Didactics, completed with Great Distinction in Namur, Belgium, I considered an approach to the psychology and sociology of learning the violin.
This approach is as much in the search for the aesthetics of sound and the work of the ear as in the proprioception and the harmonious bodily feeling necessary for the practice of the violin.
The search for playfulness and the pleasure of discovery takes an important aspect in my pedagogy and influences my methodological approach. Progress will be made at each person's pace, and with as much playfulness as possible.

My teaching experience:

I have been giving private tutoring since around 2016, all ages and levels (from 5 to 60, from beginner to advanced level).
I have done numerous replacements in approved conservatories in the Paris region, as a violin teacher, notably Les Lilas, Melun, Maisons-Alfort, Alfortville, Asnières s/seine, and am currently a replacement at the Saint Mandé conservatory.
I taught in an ASBL (independent conservatory) in Belgium for a few months, and completed 90 hours of supervised teaching internships as part of the Master's in Didactics.
I am currently a teacher in a private music school in Raincy and Drancy.

My professional experience is rich in the study of the great concertos of the repertoire, as well as a significant Chamber Music repertoire. I was called to the podium of the Royal Opera of Liège in 'I Lombardi' and 'Falstaff' by Verdi as well as at the Soirées Lyriques de Sanxay in 'La Bohème' by Puccini in 2023-2024.

I currently hold a Master's in Instrumental Studies validated with Distinction in 2023 and a Master's in Didactics/Pedagogy validated in 2024 with Great Distinction in the class of Julien Eberhardt, soloist of the Liège Opera as well as Gilles Millet, of the Danel Quartet and Jean-Baptiste Fonlupt, internationally renowned pianist.

- Holder of a Master's degree in Didactics/Pedagogy specializing in violin at IMEP in Namur in 2024
- Holder of a Master's degree in Instrumental violin specialization at IMEP in Namur in 2023
- Finalist at the Festivals de Wallonie at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Charleroi in 2021, Trio with Piano and Cello.
- Former student at the Pôle Supérieur de Paris-Boulogne (PSPBB) in a dual-course Violin/Musicology degree in conjunction with the Sorbonne.

Cziffra Foundation at 15 years old with the gold medal. Obtained the Teaching Aptitude Certificate.

My teaching/
I give my lessons in such a way as to appreciate the quality of each student, to work on pleasant pieces, adapted to their level and their tastes, to discover a new repertoire in order to allow them to play pieces by highlighting French classical musicians such as Debussy, Ravel, Fauré, Satie, Séverac, Poulenc....

Discover less classical music (dodecaphonic, minimalism, neo-classical, variety, jazz).
I am driven by a desire to share and I accompany my lessons with an introduction to each work that is both scholarly and playful.

This welcome contextualization for students often far removed from classical music is likely to facilitate accessibility to the great piano repertoire.

I stand out for my human qualities: adaptability, listening, respect for differences, curiosity about the Other and others in a context of great cultural and social otherness.

My lessons are for pianists of all ages, and all levels are welcome: beginner, intermediate, intermediate, advanced, amateur, and professional. Seniors are welcome.

And truly thank you for the generosity with which you shared with me the richness of the pieces you worked on!! It's so powerful.
Pentecost, Paris, piano course, 3 intensive days in Paris, 3 days of sharing and enthusiasm.

-Ludmilla is not only a talented pianist but also an outstanding teacher.
She possesses all the qualities: patience, clarity, liveliness of mind; moreover she goes to the bottom of things: everything is worked with great attention to detail and musicality. It is truly a great privilege to be directed by her in piano work. Catherine

- Ludmilla is an incredible teacher, with a great teaching style. Her working method helps you progress a lot. Maud

-Coming to the piano late and not having access to the academic teaching of the French conservatories which stubbornly close their doors to adults who come knocking at their doors; I decided to boost my meager baggage with a piano course, a course organized by Ludmilla international pianist. On the program: preparation of the pieces; work on the pieces with Ludmilla, proposal of work for 4 hands; proposal of improvisation on the piano. Ludmilla is an excellent teacher by her requirement in addition to a precise organization on the course; great attention, precious advice on technique, rhythm, musicality, interpretation but above all a teaching with a lot of kindness and sensitivity, and what does not spoil anything, a lot of humor. Ludmilla knew how to put herself at my level, me beginner pianist student. She knew how to give me keys to follow my pianistic path while very generously sharing her musical universe. I thank her very warmly and I advise amateur and professional students to follow her excellent teaching method. Anne France

- Huge thanks for your very rich lessons, Ludmilla. Thank you for your patience and your investment in illuminating my score and helping me better understand these magnificent works. I really appreciated it. Sorry I wasn't able to put this into practice at the audition, but with work and attention paid to each phrase, it should gradually improve. Laure

-Ludmilla. Thank you with all my heart for sharing your lessons. It's fabulous. Ludmilla, I have rarely met a person, an international artist so passionate about their art. And really thank you for the generosity with which you have sent me the pieces you have worked on!! It's so powerful. Véronique

- Inspiring, Ludmilla is a concert pianist and teacher who is clearly part of the elite in the professional piano field. Her methodological approach (intelligence of fingerings, work on different voices, diversity of repertoire, etc.) allows rapid progress in learning works and overcoming all the difficulties encountered (techniques, interpretation, etc.). This in-depth work allows you to keep the pieces in your repertoire for a long time, to gain confidence and to ensure beautiful performances in public (auditions, concerts, competitions, etc.). I warmly recommend Ludmilla to all pianists, whether amateurs, students or professionals. Christian

- Ludmilla has great teaching skills and I have made enormous progress with this teacher who has won several major prizes. Ludmilla is a perfectionist and she works on technique, sight-reading and knows the pieces that suit us. In seven years, I have a large repertoire and I play in institutions. A teacher with great patience and great teaching skills. I recommend her immediately. Lucile
