Alex - Your piano teacher

Hi there, I'm Alex Makarov, an experienced session musician, as well as a piano and drums tutor, with 3+ years of teaching experience and 2 music degrees under my belt. I specialise in personalised piano lessons mainly tailored to beginners, both for kids and adults. My expertise includes music theory, ear training, improvisation and much more. With a focus on chord theory, finger placement, and performance skills, I create a dynamic learning environment. If you have always been passionate about this 88 key instrument, and you want to figure out the essential hand placing, sight-reading, music theory and improvisation skills, then don't hesitate to get in touch and we will pick a personalised, individual road map for you, and ensure you're engaged, entertained and also challenged during the classes to make your learning process fun and effective.
