I love teaching which I have started being on postgraduate courseat Moscow Conservatory. My teachings and Master classess include Trinity College in London and Arnhem Conservatory in Holland.
I am familiar with ABRSM and Trinity college syllabuses and student who wish to do so are able to study for piano exams., although these are by no means compulsory.I also prepare students for entrance exams and final concerts.
I regularly teach on one to one basis.I am very patient and efficient.
I was born in Kiev Ukraine where at the age of 13 won first prize in the Beethoven competition, later continued studies at Moscow Conservatory before moving to Holland and later to the United Kingdom.
In Europe I gave concerts in many European countries including Hussum festival in Germany, Flanders festival in Belgium and many venues in The Netherlands, including the Concertgebow.UK performances have brought me to a Wigmore Hall and I have taken part in prestigious festivals all over the country.
I like playing chamber music and performed with the winner of Tchaikovsky competition Anastasia Tchebotareva.
I have many CD recordings which won worldwide critical acclaim., 5 stars and recognised best buys,including articles in Daily Telegraph, Guardian, Gramophone,American Record Guide, Musical Opinion.

Availability: General, subject to enquiry

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: Concerts in Europe and Asia, CD,s private teaching, masterclasses.I always carefully plan the individual program for every pupil taking into account their starting point, reasons for learning and preferred learning styles.I think that planning and preparation is the key to effective teaching.I understand that it may be challenging to learn to play musical instrument but crucially I also know how to make the process enjoyable and conducted in a friendly atmosphere. I know when it is time to relax and when to focus my students attention on complicated details and on consolidating achievements I cater for all age groups in my teaching from young children to retired adults.

Lessons with me normally centered on learning the classical piano, but popular music can also be incorporated.. As students become more proficient,a wider choice of music opens up to them. and I will discuss individual preferences with each student in rder to develop their particular interests.
