Marina
International Piano teacher- teaching traditional classical music
Piano lessons are available also for a 2021-2022 school year, a few spots are still available registration is open now. All lessons are one-on-one so you can start anytime - each student has a unique separate program depending on ability from first timers to very experienced. This program closely follows the guidelines of the Royal Conservatory of Music and provides preparation for music festivals and exams. I have over 20 years of experience and love working with young beginners as well as experienced pianists. I completed Music College in Moscow and was in the traveling orchestra moved to Canada in 1998. Decide to move to France this year who can appreciate music more than French people ?. Some good openings are still available for 2021-2022 school year. Children can be as young as age 6 and up. A good pianist doesn't mean you are a good teacher. To be a teacher you have to have a special talent, as well as lots of patience, dedication, and a love of working with children. I have experience working with children who have learning disabilities such as ADHD and Autism and have had great success. My main goal is to teach students how to read music independently and at year-end children will have an exam. With private one-on-one lessons, each child will progress at their own pace and will have my undivided attention. The Program runs in two sessions (Sept-December, (January-May ). For a registration form to confirm your spot please make a reservation via Apprentus website and I will send the registration form. I will ensure your children have an enjoyable experience.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.
