Anyone know of where I can get piano lessons?

Hello,


I've been thinking for a while now that I want to start taking piano lessons, and was wondering if anyone knew where/who I could go to to do this in Geneva?


Ideally I want to learn to play jazz piano, but since I'm a beginner I'm not sure you can specialise so early? They would have to be in the evenings after work, probably just once a week. I can read music (score) for guitar and voice, which I did a lot when I was at school.


Any tips or info would be greatly appreciated!


Cheers,


Cat

Hi,


I'm writing in answer to your post searching for a piano teacher: I give piano lessons for beginners and intermediate players to people of all ages - classical style, usually. My form of trainings include:


sight reading: ability to read and play music on sight, without prior practice;


Ear training: ability to playback music as they are heard, and


Music reading: ability to analyze/"read" music and break down sequences upon sight, without prior practice.


These training formulas were based on the RCM (Royal Conservatory of Music) curriculum, which were designed initially for classical music players, but if you are eventually aiming for jazz music, they could become helpful for you in the future.


Please do not hesiate to contact me if you are interested in further details.


Cheers,


Kay

Awesome, thanks!


Kay, I will get in touch if the school Talo told me about doesn't work out, as I'm essentially wanting something a bit more casual.


 


Talo - thanks! I'll give them a go :-)

Hi Cat,


I recently got a piano from Kneifpl (spelling?) here in Geneva and he gave me a list of piano teachers that teach everything from classical to jazz, and those that speak English. If you like I can scan in the list and send it to you? Can you send me your regular e-mail address and I'll do it tomorrow for you if you like? I'd retype but there's about two pages worth! ;)


Thanks and have a good night!

Hi Kay - 


Would be interested in learning more.  Am new to Glocals Forums - how does one get in touch.  Is it possibly privately without email addresses getting splashed all over the place?  


Many thanks,


Myanna

Hi, 


 


If you go on www.serviceathome.com, there are some really good, high quality piano teachers. There are different teachers with different prices, so you can choose who you want. I've used this company before for my home services, and they're really friendly, professional and reliable.

Hi Natacha,


I recommend you contact www.genevapiano.com


I recently started taking lessons with one of their teachers and I couldn't be happier. They're very friendly and I really appreciate the flexibility offered with the scheduling of lessons. My teacher comes to my place after I finish work at night once a week and he's really good, like I feel I'm really learning and getting my money's worth at the end of each lesson. Thinking of enrolling one of my kids now as he's showing interest in learning how to play pop songs on the piano.

Many of the students at the conservatory give lessons. You could look on their notice board. (Entrance Place de Neuve)
