Mario is a 10/10 teacher, no matter what your level is, he will always have something to contribute. His knowledge is very broad and his way of imparting it is clear and easy to understand. He is also a very friendly and empathetic person... qualities that make a teacher a friend. I would definitely book his classes again in the future. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Vincent
Intensive music theory lessons (rhythms in reading and dictation, reading of keys)
Music theory lessons, for children (from 9 years old) and adults. Passionate about music theory and music theory, I would be happy to share with you my enthusiasm for music theory, so unfairly devalued, due to the sometimes brutal methods with which it is taught. In the program : - reading notes (treble clefs, C clefs, F clefs) - reading rhythms (quarter notes, eighth notes, double / triple / quadruple eighth notes, triplets and other dotted notes) - dictation of notes (training your ear takes time, but when the exercises are "tailor-made" and progressive, you progress faster) - dictation of rhythms Do not hesitate to tell me the context of your request (competition preparation, repurposing of instruments, exams, etc.). The course durations offered are deliberately short to encourage maximum concentration. It will be essential to prepare the exercises offered between classes, to progress in a way that gives you satisfaction and nourishes your motivation. Classes available in English as well.

Daria
Inspiring Piano lessons from a passionate concert pianist
Learning how to play piano with me not just about a skill you are going to master with me. It is about passion, love and discovering your new talents from a completely different perspective. It is about discovering your inner star and then being able to reveal it to others - it is why I regularly organize concerts for students at the best concert locations in Switzerland. Your level of skills does not matter - I have tailored programs for beginners as well as for intermediate level. I also help young pianists to get ready for exams to music universities and getting scholarships.

Für mich ist es das wichtigste die Freude am Klavierspiel bei meinen Schülern zu wecken und eine gute Atmosphäre während des Unterrichts zu schaffen. Ebenfalls lege ich einen Fokus darauf, die Musikalität und Sensibilität von jedem Schüler rauszunehmen und es in den Stücken zu zeigen. Die meisten Stücke sind aus Pop und Klassik.

From August 2021 I have this luck to work in Musikschule Konservatorium Zürich. In February 2021 I passed my pedagogical studies with completed internship in the Conservatory of Bern.

Sabrina
Piano lessons of classical music and more, available for all ages
My piano lessons are focused on the aim and purpose you have with piano studying. For example, if you are an adult who wants to do it as a hobby, the approach would be relaxed, based on learning the pieces you like the most (with some suggestions by me) and on improving the technique you need for it. If you are a child, the approach will be fun, motivating an interest in music. If you're someone looking forward to an application to some public or professional music school, I will help you build the program in a very professional way. I specialize in classical music, holding a degree and Master's in piano, and I'm looking forward to pursuing my second Master's in pedagogy; although I've also taken classes about improvisation and modern piano music if you're more into that.
