    Popular music and contemporary performance (UK syllabus)

    Entry-level lessons teach about rhythm, melody, harmony, duo play, replay, music listening and ear training, music notation, and sight-reading. Learning depends on your life experience and abilities. You can learn some days, some others may develop skills some years. Learners can continue their studies in a music school or studio. Musical literacy is the reading, writing, and playing of music, as well as an understanding of cultural practice and historical and social contexts. Kopli is famous for bohemians and fine art. Young musicians can rent a music studio at the youth centre.

    About Me

    I have a digital piano and a great collection of books in English. By the way, I had worked some years in France too. Well travelled person in Europe and America. My daily schedule is quite busy one, weekly flexible, and I am interested in a student who needs the learning outcome and realistic practice.

    Some study materials (read audio files The Economist, unlimited access to the National Theatre Live (UK) or Netflix, picture books, language books, songbooks, sheets music and the digital piano with headphones and pedals, 2D and 3D, maths and logic study materials) are included into tuition and used only in a study time.

    Education

    Teacher training in Estonia and abroad. Studied English language teaching and the method of Montessori from London, UK. In addition, certified in CEU from Tartu, Tallinn, Melbourne, Townsville, Granada, Hague, Tokyo, Trois-Rivières, Leicester, Siena, and Florence.

    Experience / Qualifications

    Educator since 2007, the senior level teaching career in various educational settings. Among others, participated in the EU-funded intercultural projects with youth workers, and teachers. I've got 2 months paid holiday each summer, tutoring from Sept to May.
    English is spoken at a useful level by some 1.75 billion people worldwide. Most of them can speak several more languages. The jobs of the future, however, will require workers with advanced literacy and numeracy skills. Digital literacy and intercultural communication are one of these skills you will learn in my lessons. General language sessions have 8 levels of learning (vocabulary and grammar). Academic learning is divided into three parts. 1) Spoken language such as diction, acting on stories or poems, public speaking, debates and discussions, etc. 2) Reading exercises such as the main idea, supporting details, the author's purpose, organisation and text structures, the audience, evaluating arguments, drawing conclusions, tone and mood, meaning of words and phrases, figurative language, graphic structures of information and elements of fiction, etc. 3) Grammar and sentence structure such as the parts of speech, constructing sentences, capitalization, common language errors, the essay, writing a thesis statement, structuring the essay, providing supportive evidence, writing well, etc.
    I've been working with multi-age classrooms for more than a decade now to work with children with communication disorders and several more experiences with other children in public and private settings to teach in Estonian, English, and French. I use American curriculum and study materials in English and studies are integrated across disciplines that include geography, biology, history, language, mathematics, science, music, and other forms of artistic expression. I also have a great collection of British picture books that I use quite often and 3D wooden study materials. In my after-school sessions, children engage in their learning by thinking, discussing, investigating, and creating.

    Jamie
    Piano Tuition for all ages and abilities with experienced pianist and teacher - Classical / Grades 1-8 / Music theory
    Hi students and music lovers ! Piano is a fun and rewarding way to explore music for people of all ages, whether you've played music before or not, and is one of the most accessible instruments right from the first lesson! I teach with a variety of pop-transcriptions and easy Classical pieces, simple improvisation and harmony exercises, and am comfortable adapting to each pupils own way of learning. If you're new to piano, or have played before and want to rekindle your love of music, get in touch to arrange a first lesson! I will book us a room with a grand piano at the Academy. I graduated Master’s cum laude in Piano Performance at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre studying with prof. Peep Lassmann, who was himself a student of the great Russian pianist Emil Gilels. I have 12 years' private teaching experience, and was employed by Märjamaa Music and Art School as a 1:1 piano teacher in 2018-19. I also have a BMus (Hons) degree from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, and DipABRSM, the standard professional teaching qualification in the UK. Reviews from current students: "Jamie is an amazing teacher. I had no knowledge of piano before him and was worried in general of being able to learn. His way of explaining, patience and incredible passion for music gave me the push to try and are reinforcing my motivation to learn more day-by-day. Our classes are alive, fun, and so much like a continuous journey through all the aspects of piano music." - Angelyk "Jamie makes this comfortable atmosphere, you'll never be afraid to make a mistake. I learned a song already in my second/third lesson. 🙂 " - Taimi

    Georgia
    Singing lessons with an italian lyric-coloratura soprano. From opera to modern and pop. (Masters degree in singing with honours, cum Laude)
    My classes are different depending on your level and age. With children from 7 to 12, we start by doing easy vocalization and start training the ear with intonation, we then have fun singing your favorite songs. With teenagers, I also start with some vocalization, a little more elaborate. Depending on the student's capabilities, we start establishing a comfortable range for them and then proceed to singing. For my older students ideally, I divide our lesson into 2 sections. We work on respiration and how the diaphragm works. We do scales and arpeggios and work on intonation. We then proceed to singing and putting into practice our technique. Some students might need more technique before they actually sing, I like to take things slowly and make sure the student feels confident and comfortable singing. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from beginners to more advanced. Classical training enables you to sing in any kind of way, so don’t hesitate and let’s sing!

    Federico
    Piano Lessons, Composition, Harmony and Improvisation
    Studying music requires developing various skills and techniques, such as practicing an instrument, understanding harmony, or reading sheet music. The piano is one of the few instruments that allows you to work on these aspects—and many more—all at the same time! My name is Federico, and I am a jazz pianist. With me, you can explore the endless possibilities the piano has to offer, focusing on any topic you wish to delve into and any musical genre that resonates with you. Together, we’ll work on instrument mastery, sheet music reading, chord construction, improvisation, composition, and arrangement. And that’s just the beginning! I’d be thrilled to create a personalized lesson plan tailored to your interests and musical tastes, whether it’s mastering a song you love or refining one of your own original compositions!
