During my music studies I also had the chance to attend several masterclasses in improvisation, music harmony and theory with important musicians as: George Garzone, Bob Brookmeyer, Ayn Inserto, Scott Henderson, Gary Willis, John Stowell, Bob Mintzer, Dave Holland, Kurt Rosenwinkel and more.

Tutoring Experience

Since 1997 I'm teaching in several schools and as a private tutor. I'm able to teach piano up to grade 3, guitar up to intermediate, music theory up to grade 5, bass from beginner to advanced level.

Tutoring Approach

My approach to tutoring is based on analyzing and listening with deep attention at
students’ needs and requests, being patient while motivating with positive and neutral critic.

I also responsibly acquire an appropriate teaching material and resources relating to individual students’ needs ensuring an up-to-date knowledge and a critical awareness about
their level.
