About Me

As a classically trained saxophonist, I have been passionately teaching since 2013. My journey in music education has taken me across Europe and the United States, enriching my experience in diverse cultural settings, from Slovenia and Austria to the United Kingdom, Germany, and St. Louis, USA.

I have had the privilege of guiding a wide range of students - from young beginners at the age of 5 to high school students and adult novices. Each teaching experience has been a unique opportunity to share my love and knowledge of music.

My teaching philosophy centers around not just imparting technical skills, but also nurturing a deep appreciation for music. Whether my students aim to enjoy music as a fulfilling hobby or aspire to carve out a career as professional musicians, I dedicate myself to helping them achieve their goals with enthusiasm and dedication.

I teach piano and keyboard skills with a friendly and encouraging approach. My students learn technical exercises and pieces/songs carefully chosen to suit each individual and I also incorporate relevant music theory. I teach on an upright acoustic piano at my place in Wedding and in some cases travel to the student for lessons.

ENGLISH-SPEAKING PIANO TUTOR

I teach adults of all levels!

I often mentor people who are just starting out, helping them develop their interest in the instrument and play the music they love.

A lot of students come in with anxiety about how good or fast they're going to be able to learn. I work to build a respectful, supportive environment where you feel comfortable developing and learning at your own pace.

For intermediate and advanced students, I teach with a particular focus on fundamental technique through études, and developing musicality.

Oftentimes, as hobbyists, we have holes from our early studies that prevent us from developing later in life. My aim is to help correct that. You should leave with renewed confidence to tackle pieces that have intimidated or eluded you in the past.

I hope to teach you soon!

I have been teaching flute, piano, recorder, music theory, chamber music and coaching in English, German and Hungarian for almost 10 years, both privately and at various music schools in Berlin and Budapest. My youngest students are 5 years old, my oldest are over 60.

About me: I am Kristóf i, a practicing flautist, composer and pianist. I studied flute and composition at the Liszt Academy in Budapest and at the University of Arts in Berlin and have participated in many projects based on the wide repertoire of so-called classical music, including playing in symphony orchestras, in many chamber music groups and as a soloist, pop, rock and jazz music, folk music, experimental genres and contemporary music, performance art, theater music, sound painting and free improvisation, electronic music and so on. I come from a family of musicians and have been playing and learning flute and piano intensively since I was five years old. My whole life revolves around music and finding connections between classical music, pop genres, folk music and experimental/modern directions. I have also been involved in research in these fields and plan to continue doing so.

Let me teach you to write your own songs, learn any song by ear, create your own style or begin your journey into the world of music and playing the piano. My method is based on learning music from listening, perception and creativity. My classes are extremely practical and adaptable to the needs and interests of the student, from piano applied to songwriting or the understanding of musical language and harmony, to the preparation of different repertoires and the writing of your own songs.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Playing piano doesn’t have to start with complicated sheet music. In this course, you’ll learn how to play the piano using chords as your foundation, so you can quickly understand how songs are built and start playing music you love from the very beginning.

This is a practical, modern approach designed for students who want real results. Instead of memorizing notes, you’ll learn the chord concepts and patterns that apply to almost any song.

You will learn:
How chords work across the entire keyboard
The most common chord progressions used in countless songs
Left-hand and right-hand accompaniment patterns
How to recognize chords by ear and play without sheet music
Smooth transitions between chords and song sections
How to add rhythm, flow, and expression to your playing

If you are one of these people, then you've come to the right place:

* Beginners, children or adults
* People with poor piano experience or “stuck” players
* Parents who want their children to learn music like a language and develop focus and calmness in the process
* Music lovers, musicians or fans of certain styles who want to play creatively themselves

Then you've come to the right place.

I have been a musician since childhood and play the piano.
I have been working as a piano teacher for 5 years. I am also an architect and multidisciplinary artist, exploring the connection between sound and visual art.

In the first free hour, we'll get to know each other and explore together what you really like (film scores, bands, specific styles, etc.). After that, I'll create a personalized plan just for you.

The lessons focus on piano practice, reading music and a better understanding of music – using methods such as Piano Adventures, Alfred and other modern textbooks.

After about 5 months, many of my students see a clear difference in their playing, understanding, and self-confidence.

✨ Suitable for children, beginners and anyone who wants to learn piano in a modern and enjoyable way.

For me, music is not a theory, but a language that one lives.
Music should be learned and treated like a language.

Listening, reading (music), writing and playing.
The goal is for you to eventually "speak" music naturally, without thinking too much.

Feel free to write to me if you want to know more about my teaching or how I teach music like a second language.

Other programs (feel free to ask for details at any time – I'll send you all the information):

• Program for musical culture and listening comprehension for children and adult artists
• Program: Piano lessons and music reading for all age groups
• Basic music theory program for beginners and musicians
• Program “Sight-reading” (direct reading and playing of music)
