I‘m an award-winning composer active for 22 years in America, UK, France and Greece.
I have been Teaching Composition, Analysis of Contemporary Music (Debussy until today) and Orchestration privately and in small groups, focusing on form, structure, tonality, harmony, notation, techniques and methodology, generating handouts, analyzing examples from the world repertoire, assisting with the creation of portfolios and preparing students to successful results: university and conservatoire exams, workshops, performances, competitions, calls and CD productions.
Significantly enhancing students’ level of compositional skill and competence (from beginner to advanced)

About Me
I'm always friendly and accessible. During my lessons, I create a pleasant and exciting learning atmosphere even when things get tough(er)! I motivate my students to stay focused, work with positive energy toward their goals and become self-confident in their creative process, whether it's for their own learning experience, for sharing their music with the wider public (workshops, concerts, competitions, etc.), or both.
