One of the great joys of playing an instrument is to become able to capture the emotive force that the artistes you so admire can evoke.
Discover how they do it. What scales they use, how they create their sublime musical phrases, what their vibrato is like, what ornamentation they favour...
No doubt you want to get a foot in the door fast.
Learn some power chords and play along with your favourite records in the first lesson.
Don't feel abashed about lacking any previous experience. It's not neccessary. I've taken many adult total beginners up to public performance level.
Music theory, Rock, Pop, Acoustic Guitar and Bass Grades.
You don't have to do them but it's nice to be able to guage your progress and if you're hoping to do a GCSE in music or go to a music college being able to show your credentials can be essential to getting an audition.
My students have a 100% pass rate across 30 years.

Having taught music privately for over a decade whilst also furthering my own education, I have worked with students of various ages and abilities. Whether it is primary school students picking up an instrument for the first time, helping a sixth form student with their application to a music school or an adult who is looking to round out their playing, I am able to structure lessons to whatever the student’s needs are.
I have a formal music education, graduating from The Academy Of Contemporary Music in 2016 with a BA Honours Music Performance degree under tutors such as Giorgio Serci and Frank Tontoh, with experience of a wide variation of musical situations that I use to inform my teaching such as: big band jazz orchestra (NYJO), musical theatre, pop/rock groups, solo instrumentalist, lounge singer, classical/contemporary vocal accompaniment, live event manager and studio engineer assistant.
With my education and experience, I am a great teacher for students at any stage of their musical journey. I love seeing students progress and take particular pleasure when students carry on learning even after our lessons have finished (when they may to go university for example).
(PLEASE NOTE in-person lessons over 45 mins travel time from base location (Herne Hill) may have £5 charge on top of regular lesson fee)

I have experience teaching children as young as 3, and all ages up to people in their 70s.

All pupils have passed their exams, usually with high grades - recently 85, 91, 92%.
I like to be friendly and calm, and ask questions to figure out what and how the pupil wants to learn, to engage them as best as possible, and make it fun for them.

I can teach you rock, jazz; classical grade exams if required. Or we can just learn just for fun, learn how to strum your favourite songs. Basically I will find out what you want to know and if I can help we'll do it! And if i can't (eg Flamenco) we will bow and move along! I mostly teach in/near the borough of Camden (eg Hampstead, Swiss Cottage, Kentish Town, Belsize Park, Tufnell Park), Haringay or southwest Enfield but if it's feasible to come to you elsewhere, it's worth a chat. Can also teach music theory, songwriting, bass guitar if required. Very experienced musician.

Levels have ranged from Beginner to Advanced levels. This has also ranged between children and adults. GUITAR - I have given guitar lessons to beginners of various ages in both groups and one-to-one.

I have been teaching music for more than twenty years. I am passionate about helping students achieve their goals and try to make the learning experience as fun and enjoyable as possible.
I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Performing classical Guitar from the University of Tehran and also I earned a Master's degree in Composition for Film and Media from Pulse College Dublin.

I'm energetic. So, I promise to offer a great earning experience for adults as well as children.
I composed music for different theater and media projects like the movie "Fog". Moreover, I have worked as an instrumentalist and an actress in the movies "Gozaran" and "The Cook".

Hi there,
Name's Jordan. I'm a university student with a passion for english and music, particularly the guitar, bass and drums. While I don't yet hold a degree, I've obtained distinctions in all of my music courses for A-level without fail, if it's passion and drive you want then I'm your man.
On the English side, as long as I know what's being taught I can teach it in an engaging way that'll hopefully make English less of a drag than many seem to think it is!
As for my teaching style, I'm 19 and therefore don't hold any sort of strict teaching guidelines within me, expect me to be pretty laid back and friendly during sessions. After all, I don't believe that any sort of passion for a subject can arise from being taught in a strict and rigid way. As it so happens I'm not really a traditionalist, so if it's guitar you're here for then expect a very "hands-on approach" to get you playing as fast as possible.
Oh, and my first sessions are free!
I'll probably use this to get an idea of the subjects i'm working with and add them to a list to make sure I'm confident on all of the material going forward. If you decide that you like my general mannerisms and character for some reason, then you can be rest assured that i'll have all the answers when it comes to the learning process!
One final thing; I welcome learners of any kind, any background and any skill level. If you want to just sit and chill out while we talk about the subject matter, then we can do that. If you want to do a Grade for your instrument, give me a second to find the piece you're learning and I'll help you learn, no matter what piece it is.
Alright, that's all from me. If you like the cut of my jib, then shoot me a message or something, i'll reply pretty quickly, usually no more than a few hours, provided I have the slot free.
Okay, hope to speak to "you" soon!

"The Musica Nova is a name to be held in respect by those engaged in promoting sound artistic values within youthful musical circles. The establishment bears the hallmark of excellence. Its principal, the distinguished Russian pianist and singer Eugenia Terentieva, ensures that her students enjoy tuition of the highest quality. Musica Nova deserves to attain outstanding success in the field of scholastic advancement"
Derek Leask. Music Critic, UK
Musica Nova, the International Academy of Music, is a unique bilingual establishment in the UK that combines the best of British and Russian principles of teaching and offers music lessons and complex Certificate programmes for children (starting as early as 3. 5 years old) and adults (up to advanced professional level).
It has six categories of classes geared to maximise the potential of the student in musical styles and genres as diverse as classics, jazz, pop, dance, and drama. It was founded in 2001 and is based in the London Borough of Camden, within walking distance of King’s Cross St. Pancras tube station (zone 1). Thanks to the Academy, children, teenagers and adults from all ethnic backgrounds, including the Russian-speaking community in London, are being introduced to a beautiful world of music, enabling them to develop and improve their talent and to embark on professional music activity.
Musica Nova has established partnership links with artistic management agencies, record companies and cultural institutions. Since March 2011 the Musica Nova has held membership of the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM) one of the major umbrella organisations in the UK joining professional teachers and musicians. In 2012 the Musica Nova took part in the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Music Education held at the Palace of Westminster. Recent documentaries about the Academy have been broadcast by the BBC, major national and international Russian TV channels and the Russian Hour programme on the Digital Sky TV channel.
Teachers
All teachers are highly qualified professional musicians with a Conservatoire education, and with vast teaching experience with legal working status in the UK. All new teachers are carefully assessed and vetted in accordance with DFES regulations and employment legislation and with the Musica Nova’s own quality control procedures.
Lessons and Curriculum
Lessons take place in soundproof studios, equipped with pianos and elegantly designed to bring a sense of intimacy and discipline to the teaching. Both one-to-one and group sessions of up to eight students, are run at the Academy to fit in with students and parent’s busy lifestyles. If requested, lessons can also take place at client’s home (within the London area) and online.
The programmes are specially designed to lead and direct students from very first steps in music to Certificate (Grades 1 – 8) and Degree programmes (Performing and Teaching Diplomas) with participation in concerts, recording projects, performances at the international festivals and competitions. The ‘Music Wonderland’ is an innovative authoring programme offered to younger students. In close collaboration with child psychologists it assists in teaching music to children with dyslexia, speech and concentration problems.
In 2014 the Musica Nova introduced new educational programmes. Free concert events and workshops popularising good quality classical and contemporary music are open for children and adults in the Camden Russian communities in London.
Exams
Every year over 200 students are successfully assessed and receive Diplomas from major national examination boards. Students continue further music education in colleges and conservatoires in the UK (Royal Academy of Music, Royal Music College, Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London, Cambridge and Oxford Universities) and Russia (State Conservatoire in Saint Petersburg, Gnessin Institution in Moscow).
Performances and Competitions
Students and teachers of the "Musica Nova" Academy have successfully performed in front of the members of the Royal Family, members of Parliament, politicians and celebrities.
