Very good first contact.

A good teacher and a very pleasant fellow! He specializes more on music theory and improvisation as opposed to technique and tone mastery. Struggles a bit with English, but he's eventually able to get his point across anyhow!
The lesson was great. Daniel knows and responds to the student's needs.

Daniel is a very good and patient teacher. He is a very skilled musician, he plays various instruments but saxophone is his very favourite. I highly recommend to take saxophone lessons from him. He is a thorough gentleman and excellent teacher.

Learn to play; to decipher the scores and improvise by ear or by reading and analyzing chord charts. This course will adapt to your level of play: simple harmonies for beginners and more complex depending on the degree of mastery of the instrument. This course also includes a thorough introduction to harmony.
I am a multi-instrumentalist (saxophone, transverse flute, keyboard), composer and arranger (SACEM member since 2012), excellent improviser. This course will allow you quickly, whatever your instrument and your technical level, to understand and master the chord sequences and the articulation of musical language according to these sequences. In addition, you will learn the most frequent or rare harmonic structures used by composers. And, theory notwithstanding, you will learn to develop your ear to identify harmonic structures. This course also includes an introduction to the history of jazz.

Saxophone lessons for all levels, jazz and other styles
I graduated from the CNSMDP (National Conservatory of Music and Dance in Paris) in Saxophone Jazz (Master). I teach saxophone for all types of levels and styles. I like to approach learning this instrument through oral transmission rather than through methods or scores. This is how I learned music and jazz in particular. (I also oriented my dissertation around solo recording and learning through imitation.) However, I read music very well and can work with scores if the student prefers to work that way, or if the style of music requires sheet music.

Naline
Concert pianist graduate Frederic Chopin University of Music in Warsaw gave piano and music theory lessons
< about the course > I give piano lessons for people of all ages and levels from 5 years old, mainly students and adults. I respect each student's individuality and approach each from a different perspective. I propose a method adapted to each student. Having traveled through Korea, Poland, Germany and France, I have taught piano to students of different nationalities, and I aim to increase students' potential based on my many musical experiences and performance activities. I can help with many areas including touch, intonation, listening and music theory. Additionally, I can give advice on how to express music and creative expressions. Of course, depending on the level of the piano, the work can be chosen by the student or I can recommend it. I teach on an upright piano at home. Pianist and piano teacher of South Korean nationality. I lived in Korea, Poland and Germany, and I now teach piano in Paris, France, and I share my experiences in different countries with my students. Bachelor's and master's degree from Frédéric Chopin University of Music (Warsaw, Poland), La Schola Cantorum de Paris, Alexandre Scriabine Russian Conservatory in Paris (Certificate of Perfectionnement Concert), DEM de CRR de Cergy-Pontoise. I am a piano teacher at the Villemomble conservatory.

Private guitar lessons at home or online.
Hello I am a jazz guitarist and I give guitar lessons for all levels at home (from 13 years old). I live in Porte de Bagnolet, but I can travel throughout Paris. I play regularly in big clubs like the Duc des Lombards and the Sunset, but also I have toured the United States and played in the legendary “Jazz at Licoln Center” and other important places like the Spectrum theater in Washington DC I worked in a Big Band for 4 years, so deciphering is one of my strong points, if you are interested, I use a very simple reading method that gives magnificent results. Now I am a student at the CRR in Paris and I give private lessons for my support and also for my musical projects.. My method changes depending on the needs of the student if you want to deepen your knowledge of harmony and musical theory to use it on the instrument, if you want to improve your technique, if it is just to learn songs and have fun , if you want to know the differences of each style, I will help you to have a clearer awareness in music and this will strengthen your abilities in interpretation, improvisation and composition, whatever the style. I will be happy to tell you more by messages on this site if you want to know more.

Piano lessons, all styles, jazz and improvisation.
Who hasn't dreamed of sitting down at the piano and playing? I started music almost 40 years ago. With a great experience of the scene, I can help you develop your ear, to learn the bases of the piano, the technical and theoretical notions which will allow you to better understand this language and to become independent. I also teach reading American writing so that I can read a jazz standard or a pop song. I can guide you through some exercises to improve your technique. Whether you are amateur or experienced, if you wish, we will address the vast universe of improvisation.

(LIVE or ONLINE!) Piano, improvisation, composition and music theory lessons
I am a Spanish pianist and composer (MMus graduate from Codarts Rotterdam in both directions) with many years of teaching experience, and also very active in performing in various contexts. I give private piano lessons for all levels and styles (classical, jazz, Latin, new age, pop...), as well as music theory, composition and improvisation lessons. My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student. The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup. I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

Pianiste certifié enseigner le piano pour tous niveaux et tous les âges. Méthodologie personnelle et décontractée !
J'ai plus de 12 ans d'expérience en enseignement, un diplôme de licence en interprétation au piano et une certification pédagogique d'une université reconnue internationalement. J'ai participé à de nombreuses classes de master de piano en Europe et j'ai étudié avec de grands pianistes. J'apprends toujours auprès de différents pianistes hautement accomplis. Je travaille comme pianiste professionnel depuis maintenant 7 ans, en Suisse, en Espagne, aux Maldives, à Chypre, en Autriche, en Islande et sur des navires de croisière de luxe (autour du monde). Au cours de ma carrière, j'ai appris que la compassion, la communication et l'encouragement sont tout aussi essentiels à la transmission de connaissances musicales que de compétences techniques. Je vous apprends également à vous DÉTENDRE CORRECTEMENT, afin que vous ne subissiez jamais aucune blessure (tendinite, etc.) pendant que vous pratiquez le piano. Mon expérience professionnelle comprend le coaching d'étudiants de tous niveaux et de tous âges, l'enseignement à différents niveaux de compétences. J'ai préparé avec succès les étudiants avec leurs examens de piano comme ABRSM, Trinity Grade 1-8 et des examens plus avancés. Je peux vous apprendre à jouer de la musique classique, du ragtime, du blues, du jazz, de la musique traditionnelle, de la musique moderne (Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, etc.), de la musique ancienne (Abba, Queen, etc.). Je dispense mes cours en utilisant une combinaison de 4 caméras pour une visibilité optimale et un microphone de qualité que mes étudiants trouvent très utile. Cela leur permet de voir une démonstration visuelle très claire à côté de mon explication verbale. J'obtiens d'excellents résultats avec mes étudiants qui travaillent en ligne. Je vous donnerai des cours de piano en ligne personnalisés. Pour les débutants, j'utilise les livres de méthode Alfred, mais je suis très ouvert à l'utilisation d'autres livres également. J'aime enseigner et expliquer des choses générales, des habitudes qui peuvent être appliquées à des passages musicaux similaires, que l'on retrouve dans toutes les partitions musicales, de la musique classique à la musique moderne. J'ai environ 10 000 abonnés sur Youtube, 18 000 sur Facebook et 30 000 sur Instagram. J'espère que vous apprécierez la lecture de mon profil, le visionnage de ma vidéo

Learn Piano and Improvisation and practice other languages :)
The most important matter that I could write here about is my passion to teach. I've been teaching already for more than 10 years, from kids to adults. I'm a classical pianist, but I am opened to other musical styles. What I want you to get from your lessons with me, is not only a huge knowledge of theorical stuff or a great technique, I would like to show you my musical world, the imagination and inner exploration that is required to understand and to love music in a whole new level. Once you have found them, it will be very hard to quit playing! The class duration: You can choose! 20 minutes (Great for the youngest : 3 years old) 30 minutes (Ideal for young beginners from 4 years old) 45 minutes (Intermediate+ adult beginners) 1 hour (Intermediate and combined with some Music Theory) I use different methods depending on: 1) The goals of my student 2) The language that we will use on class 3) Age and musical preferences: I start to teach children from 3 years old, we make games and they learn to play through musical stories that I have created throughout my pedagogical career.
