We had a really interesting and fun lesson with a very engaging teacher. Looking forward to more lessons!
Lots of fun to discover a new instrument! Catherine is a very competent teacher, explaining the basics very well and showing a lot of patience with me as a beginner.
I am the 2nd solo-violoncellist at the Lausanne Chamber Orchestra since 1998. I am passionate not only to play the orchestra and as a soloist but also to share my experience with my students of all ages. ( Recently moved from Pays-d'en-Haut to Gros de Vaud I am looking for new students in the region. I also give classes to HEMU students who are preparing for their exams or for an orchestra competition.

The harp is a fabulous instrument that is both technical and intuitive, there are lots of beautiful and interesting things to learn!

Piano, music theory and musical appreciation
Pianist student at the HEM in Geneva offers piano lessons as well as music theory! Basic elementary and intermediate level I also propose a part to speak about the musical appreciation of all the periods of the history of the music. For all ages! These will be lessons to work on the piano (beginners and intermediate) while we talk about music theory (harmony, music theory, analysis, etc.) and also a time to listen to recordings and talk about musical appreciation. Besides classical education, I also work with jazz pieces and pop music. It's an hour to have fun, learn and discover. I have over five years of experience teaching piano and music theory, with children, youth and adults. I can move to the student's home (Lausanne and Canton of Vaud) and I am flexible with weekly schedules. I adapt to each student and situation! Classes can be given in French, Spanish or English.

Piano lessons, theoretical and practical basis, introduction to composition and improvisation.
Passionate about piano and music since childhood, I offer you an education adapted to each person, the goal being to learn the theoretical and practical bases in a pleasant atmosphere which stimulates the desire to learn and to express oneself with the instrument. Patient and pedagogical by nature each course will be designed to be tailor-made according to the needs and desires of the student. The lesson can be given at the student's home but I can also put my piano at your disposal if necessary.

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.
