Professional singer (soprano colorature) graduated from the Tirana Academy of Arts, winner of the International Lyric Song Contest of Prishtina in the solo category as well as many other national competitions (in Albania) gives singing lessons in Carouge.

Professor of music in several Geneva institutions, member of the Operami troupe and singer-soloist of the Electrum & Elisir group, she participated in the Euro Song Contest 2014 and recorded her voice for the Swiss artist Sky76 on her last two albums.

This course is aimed at students of all levels who really want to progress in learning to sing for a fun or professional purpose. The musical styles that can be approached range from classical music to radio music (pop, soul, rock, house, etc.) and folk music.

Knowledge of music theory, although useful, is not mandatory. In case of need bases of music theory will be addressed in class.

As a violinist: I am currently a student at the Geneva University of Music, after having followed the pre-professional course at the Conservatoire de Musique de Genève. During my career, I won several prizes such as the Vatelot Rampal competition in Paris and the Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland soloist, and string quartet (alongside Julie Berthollet in particular). I also attended the Indianapolis University Academy summer internship.

As a Pedagogue: in addition to sporadically giving individual lessons for 4 years, I was part of the "Jeunesses Musicales of Switzerland" youth and youth internship team for three consecutive years.

Overall, my goal is to allow my students to have fun making music, to express themselves as they wish and hear, with their instrument!
I adapt the rhythm of my teaching, my teaching materials, the choice of songs to each, according to the requests that are made to me. My classes can also take the status of personal work support; in this case, students can obviously bring me their scores worked with their main teacher, or those they play in chamber music / orchestra.

In short: The violin is an art, it learns yes, but we play! :)

Mes cours de piano, solfège et composition s'adaptent entièrement au profil et aux objectifs de chaque élève. Qu'il s'agisse d'un premier contact avec la musique, d'une reprise après une longue pause, ou d'une préparation sérieuse à des examens ou à l'entrée dans un conservatoire, nous construisons ensemble un parcours sur mesure.

Ma double formation — compositeur et pédagogue selon la méthode Jaques-Dalcroze — me permet d'aborder l'enseignement de manière à la fois rigoureuse et vivante, en reliant le son, le geste et la perception du temps. J'accorde une attention particulière au rythme et à l'écoute, qui sont à la base de toute pratique musicale solide.

Je travaille avec :

Les enfants : développement des compétences musicales de base, éveil rythmique et auditif, initiation à la lecture de notes et à l'improvisation

Les adultes : cours adaptés à vos objectifs, à votre rythme, dans une atmosphère bienveillante et exigeante

Les candidats aux conservatoires : préparation aux examens d'entrée et ABRSM, travail ciblé sur les lacunes spécifiques en théorie, solfège ou instrument

Les cours ont lieu en français, en anglais ou en russe.

I have been successful in helping students who have suffered from technical problems, tendonitis, and excessive tension when playing.

With me, you will prevent these types of problems from happening to you. I will teach you accordingly to the repertoire you want to play, solving technical problems in the music.

It's going to be a pleasure helping you. See you soon in our class!

Music has always been an integral part of my life.
I am a cellist in the 1st year of a Master's degree at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève.
I started the piano at the age of 7. I took private lessons for 7 years and a year at the Geneva Conservatory of Music.
From 2019 to 2021, I took piano lessons at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève for 2 years as a secondary instrument.
As a musician, I would like to be able to introduce the melodious beauty of the piano to people of all ages.
I obtained my Master's degree in Pedagogy at the Geneva University of Music in June 2024.

Violinist with a Masters in Pedagogy and a Masters in Concert.
I have been teaching for many years in various schools, including the Centre Artistique du Lac, an art school, and the Notre-Dame du Lac institute in Geneva.
I also play regularly with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande and the Geneva Chamber Orchestra.

I really like teaching in private because it gives us the possibility of creating à la carte lessons and being as close as possible to the needs and pleasure of each student.
Lessons are for all ages, all levels, individual or in small groups.
Feel free to ask questions 😊

We will cover targeted concepts and techniques to achieve your goals and adapted to the way you learn best. Sheet music, oral, visual, annotations or adapted scores are all tools that I keep at my disposal according to needs. Music theory can help some people, in certain forms and in measured doses, while others, on the contrary, do not need it. It does not take me much time to learn to understand you and from the first session I will have targeted one or more approaches that will suit you. I still have one rule at heart, and that is to always maintain musicality and take pleasure even when playing simple things or exercises. Learning should never become a chore and should be a pleasure just as much as enjoying a good level of playing.

Dear music lovers,

A pianist and composer with a degree from the Paris Conservatory (Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris), I have been teaching piano for over 10 years to students of all levels, from beginners to advanced musicians. I currently teach at the Conservatory.

I offer piano lessons as well as lessons in writing (harmony, counterpoint, fugue), composition and improvisation to anyone who wants to discover, learn or improve in these different practices!

In a few words, what I can offer you:

Music lessons at your own pace
Learning classical to contemporary music, current music
Improvisation alone or in pairs
Learning to read
solfège
Interpretation of works for 4 hands
Work on interpretation
Develop timbres to make the instrument sound in various ways
Learn to compose and develop musical ideas
Anatomical and postural explanations
Breathwork for acting and/or managing stage fright
Composition of pieces adapted to the student's level

Music is a precious art through which so many things, colors, and feelings can be expressed. It is thanks to music that I have learned to know myself more deeply, to find a discipline that has meaning. I have become certain that everyone can draw beautiful experiences from it.
My courses are built according to your needs and desires; for this, we will first clarify your objectives and the time you wish to devote to them in order to determine the level of requirement for our courses.

For kids :
Children are welcome from the age of 4. My approach is caring, playful, and ambitious. Over time, I have developed valuable experience with children from 4 to 18 years old. I have learned the art of engaging students in daily practice: the vast majority of my students can read the treble and bass clefs and sight-read music by the end of their first year. Beginners are therefore very welcome, and it is even possible to incorporate music theory into the piano lesson.

The classes take place in Chêne-Bougeries.

Professeure de musique et pianiste expérimentée, je propose des courses de piano et de formation musicale personalisés pour enfants, adolescents, adults et seniors.

Mon approche associe l'apprentissage du piano à la musicalité, l'écoute, le rythme, l'improvisation et la créativité. Je m'appuie notamment sur les pédagogies actives Jaques-Dalcroze et Orff afin que l'élève apprenne la musique de manière vivante et naturelle.

The courses are adapted to the level and objectives of chacun: piano discovery, musical initiation, reprise after several years, accompaniment to an apprenticeship that began or simply a pleasure of play.

Starting in September 2026, the Master in musical pedagogy – orientation Rythmique Jaques-Dalcroze will be offered to Geneva.

Mon objectif est que chaque elève progresse à son rythme tout en développant autonomy, confiance et plaisir musical.
