For playing blues on the harmonica, you will be needing a 10-Hole DIATONIC harmonica in the key of C.
We start with holding the harmonica rightfully in your hand and in the mouth.
Then we will be playing our first pure, single note. And then gradually playing them all over the instrument.
Then it is time for learning the basic 12 bar blues progression. This will help you to start to play your favourite bluestunes, but also start your own tunes.
In the course , you will also be able to learn the important technique: Bending. This is an integral part of bluesharmonica. I will show you exactly how to do that.
And a lots of other techniques.
But, most of all, you will have a la of fun.
You will have much joy !!
Strumming The GUITAR has it’s own right place. But when learning the fingerstyle, it opens a wide variety of very beautiful melodies . Because you play as an orchestra. What do we mean by this? Well, in the beginning we will be learning several basslines with the thumb in combination with the melody. So, you play both the rhythm and the melody together. I am also going to give you an amazing formula which you van use to build your own FINGERPICKING patterns as you practice.
This course is both for the beginner and intermediate student.
Those already know some chords, can receive help modify them so that you can adjust to a song and integrate the melody into the chordshape.
It is a most interesting course open for everyone !!
Do you want to play your favorite song on guitar? In other words, do you want to start playing harmonica?
Then you are at the right place.
There is no age to start. young and old can come to me!
My motivation is to help the student achieve his goal. Whatever it is.
You can expect a patient, friendly approach from me.
This means: I provide individual assistance to each student, with the necessary finesse.
Specifically what you need to make progress.
You will get the basics, but in a fun way! The different techniques will be dealt with during the course.
The student starts by holding the harmonica correctly, which is a diatonic in the key of G (sol).
Then he / she learns to play a pure note, and to master the distances between the different holes.
The C scale is also studied. Learn to play in 1st position, then in 2nd position.
A simple song is taught. Then some basic techniques, such as: thrills, sliding and bending.
10 lessons are enough to have a good foundation.

Cheslava
Piano and Singing tutor with 5 years experience and professional educationFrom my childhood I have been studying music and art: sang in choir and solo, played piano, painted, studied music history and literature, solfeggio. Later in college I have also learned choir conducting, had ensemble and choir singing lessons,
cultural studies.
During last year in university I had pedagogy practice at university and at private art school (where I worked as a music tutor before the war - piano, voice). I truly enjoyed working with students. They all were different age (8 - 40+ years old) and level. But all were very interesting and work was pleasant.
My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world. In addition I prepared presentations (which contained information about cultural and historical background and musical and character/art analysis).
So after graduation from choir conducting faculty (which allowed me to deepen my knowledge in many important compatible branches) I concentrated on studying classical singing and piano, expanded my cultural studies and analysis knowledge, practiced solfeggio and harmony.

Learn how to play Piano (or Keyboard) at your own pace.Have you ever wanted to learn to play the piano/keyboard but don't know where to start? Are you regretting giving up learning the piano/keyboard when you were younger? Do you feel that your current progress in playing the piano/keyboard is being held back?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes then please contact me. I always try to ensure that each individual student's interests are catered for. If you want to play for pleasure then I will encourage you to learn pieces that you like. Alternatively, if you are more interested in achievement, in terms of taking graded exams, then this is the pathway that we will take.
Enjoyment is the key to success as it leads to a desire to practise. So tayloring the class to your needs is absolutely essential and I am very keen to work with you to achieve this goal.

Yuriy
Private Piano Lessons for All Ages and Levels! Play the Music You Want!Hello!
My name is Yuriy, and I am glad to welcome you to my page! I am a playing pianist and a private teacher of piano, synthesizer and music theory. I conduct a free trial lesson, where we can get to know each other and determine how compatible we are.
Work experience
I have been working with children and adults of any level for over five years. Both with those who study for themselves and with those who need help in development or professional preparation for exams / training.
My approach
The basis is the construction of a holistic musical personality, an individual approach. I help students express themselves and captivate listeners. This includes, in addition to all types of technique, ear training and music theory, also more general psychological skills and abilities related to your personality, such as, for example, artistry and musicality. In this sense, the student and teacher's understanding of themselves and music plays a major role; serious attention is paid to psychological processes in the lesson, since they are the most important part of the student's progress. Elements of psychoanalysis are included in the work (I have more than 7 years of experience in personal analysis). Unfortunately, teachers almost always do not know how to work in this area, which significantly worsens the quality of classes.
In lessons, I start from your goals, desires and level, you can choose your repertoire and pace of learning together with me.
Lessons are adapted to the age, level and tasks of the student - an individual approach.
With students who study professionally, they are distinguished by greater intensity, the presence of exam lessons.
With children, a minimum of theoretical discussions and a maximum of play.
In my understanding, technique is a good sound and effect on the listener, so in lessons I almost always start from the process of expressing myself through music, from direct playing on the instrument. This means that I do not engage in meaningless memorization of techniques, but their mastery occurs through the creation of music, which makes the process enjoyable and interesting.
Education and achievements
I started my education at the Stasov Music School in Moscow (piano), and then continued at the Ippolitov-Ivanov Music and Pedagogical College (piano). I received a bachelor's degree from the Jerusalem Academy of Music (piano). I am a diploma winner of the Moscow Piano Competition of Romantic Music (2018), and also a multiple participant in various concerts with solo and ensemble programs.
I have more than 7 years of experience in personal psychoanalytic work, which allows me to delve into the details of each student.
Work online
I have several professional webcams for viewing hands and posture from different sides (including from above), as well as several microphones so that you can hear and see both your voice and playing with high quality. For lessons, you will need a device with Internet access, a camera and a microphone. Work is usually in Zoom or Jitsi.
Thanks to the fact that the student and I see and hear each other well, my experience, as well as physical exercises and associative examples, we achieve good learning results!
