Violin, viola, music theory lessons in Geneva and its surroundings / Français - English

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hello !
Violinist and currently a student at the Haute École de Musique de Genève, I offer lessons in violin, viola, musical awakening or music theory for all levels and all ages, but also preparation courses for the baccalaureate option music .
I also offer support lessons for students who are already studying in a conservatory.
Very interested in pedagogy for a long time, I have already taught private lessons in Paris and Versailles, but also at the conservatory of Dreux in France, where I had the pleasure of being a violin teacher and accompanying my students. in their musical journey.
Passionate about music since I was little, I am interested in different styles; so-called “classical” music, due to my training, but also jazz, Klezmer music and Eastern music, due to my origins.
From a pedagogical point of view, I know how to adapt to everyone, and the method I propose to learn is centered around the pleasure of playing, while ensuring that I provide my students with a stable knowledge base, theory, practice and musical culture.
Hope to meet you,
Martha

Mathilde
Student at the HEM in Geneva Solfège lessons for all levels

Célia
Violin lessons for all Fr / Ang (solfeggio included).
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! :)

Laurent
Introduction to classical and electric guitar.
Passionate about music and graduated from the Conservatory of Music in Geneva, private guitar teacher since 2015, I started playing the guitar at the age of 8 in 1999, I want to teach you to play this instrument in a simple and intuitive way. I can teach you to read a sheet music, to play one of your favorite pieces, to know your scales, your chords and also to improvise. My hours are flexible and I also teach on weekends. I am always happy to teach this instrument to whoever wants it so I encourage you to contact me even with a simple question.

Florent
Pianist graduated from the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève gives piano lessons, music theory for all ages and levels
My piano lessons are aimed at beginners as well as more experienced students. We will start by defining together what your objectives are in order to find a learning pace that suits you. I offer a global approach to the piano combining technique, interpretation of pieces of varied styles and improvisation/music theory. A course is generally structured as follows: 1. 5 to 10 minutes of technical work. The development of effective gestures is essential in order to fully express one's musical potential. I offer progressive exercises allowing you to acquire the basics of piano technique (finger independence, velocity, hand coordination, arm mobility, posture, etc.). For young students, this work takes the form of keyboard games. Just like a sport, playing an instrument is a challenge for the body: I ensure that the student adopts a good posture on the instrument, in order to play with control and to avoid tension and injuries linked to an inattentive practice. 2. Interpretation. I propose strategies for structuring the learning of a piece, in order to optimize the time spent working on the piano and to make the student autonomous in their practice. My training at the conservatory allows me to introduce you to the styles of different eras of classical music, from baroque to the present day. I am also open to other musical universes, and the choice of pieces is primarily based on your tastes and desires. For the youngest students, I offer a suitable repertoire (arrangements of classical pieces, film music, video games, anime, songs), as well as simplified scores for a gradual introduction to reading. In order to cultivate motivation, it is important that students play music that speaks to them and that they are not discouraged by music theory. 3. Improvisation and music theory. For students who are beginners or have never done music theory, I teach the necessary theoretical bases (orientating themselves on the keyboard, reading a score, rhythm, listening), often in the form of improvisation games. In addition to developing a personal connection with the instrument, improvisation also allows you to assimilate notions of harmony/counterpoint (scales, intervals, chords) through practice, and to understand little by little how music is constructed. To make the link with the repertoire being worked on in class, I often suggest taking an element of a piece as a starting point for improvising. Of course, nothing obliges us to follow a particular plan, and if you come with a particular desire or a specific objective, I will try to meet your expectations as best as possible. I look forward to reading you, and sharing some beautiful moments of music together.

Louana
Private Piano and Solfege lessons for Beginners / Intermediates - Children / Teenagers
Hello, My name is Louana, I am 30 years old and am currently a piano teacher for students ranging from 3 to 65 years old. Indeed, I started very young music with first 2 years of rhythm then 5 years of Solfege Jacques-Dalcroze and finally 12 years of piano including 10 at the Conservatory of Music in Geneva. (each year of study being validated by exams & diplomas) Today I continue to play for fun and give some of my time to teach a few students once a week. Class sessions are generally 45 minutes to 1 hour as proposed by the Conservatory. I teach with my old scores which allows a gradual evolution step by step. Obviously, I remain attentive to everyone's wishes, but I particularly teach classical music because in my opinion, these are the best bases allowing you to play what you want. I am obviously at your disposal for any further information or to arrange an interview at your convenience. Best regards, Louana
