You've always dreamed of playing your favorite songs, but you've been put off by music theory when you were a kid, and you never really got started?
You want to start the piano with your child, but you want to see if it really hooks, before thinking about enrolling in the conservatory?
Today, it can be difficult to find your way around the huge offer when you are looking for a "piano teacher" on the internet.
The problem is that they all offer the same method with which they themselves learned piano years ago, without adapting to YOUR situation or the situation of YOUR child.
Without knowing why they teach this method and not another.
Before going any further, let me tell you my story.
When I decided to start the piano at the age of 12, I was late compared to all my classmates who had started playing the piano at the age of six at the local Conservatory, pushed by their parents.
I was not in the traditional "circuit", I was officially "too old" to return to the conservatory as a beginner.
So I had to find a way to bypass a lot of traditional learning steps (which normally take a several years), to focus on "what works" first and foremost. The essential elements. I had to reinvent the wheel.
For that, I met an exceptional teacher with whom we deconstructed step by step the way we learn the piano.
With one criterion: efficiency.
All this because I wanted to progress faster than average, and to reach a professional level.
This wasn't easy. But at the price of all these efforts, I managed to fill my "delay" and to be admitted to the National Conservatory of Music and Dance of Paris (CNSMDP) in 2015. In the entrance examination, my 160 competitors were all much more experienced than me, and they were all meticulously prepared. But thanks to my personal strategy and my counter-intuitive method, I managed to be among the 10 lucky ones admitted.
Since then, I have successfully participated in many competitions, festivals, master classes. I was able to fully experience my passion for piano, the way I dreamed as a teenager, when everyone told me it was impossible because I was too old. But first and foremost, I also managed to pass on my method to many students in my conservatory to make them progress faster. Today, I want to increase my offer and I want to target more people.
What sets me apart from other teachers is that I have been in YOUR place. I was not a child prodigy, I was not even particularly "talented" for music. Unlike those who learned the piano in their childhood, I was old enough to remake the entire journey in a completely CONSCIOUS and thoughtful way, analyzing eveything, with just one goal: results, results, results.
Everything I've learned, you can learn too, because over time I managed to really understand what made me progress so fast.
The method I use (modulated according to the age and abilities of each) is organized around three axes:
1) Ear education and physical relaxation, to learn in a natural way and never lose the pleasure of playing and listening
2) The Fundamentals of Harmony to finally understand how songs are built, and manage to learn them ten times faster than if you had learned mechanically note after note. What is the system used by composers?
3) Simple and effective technical tools to quickly overcome difficulties (independence of hands, placement of the body, etc.)
See you soon! :)

Perfect! Organisé tout en étant décontracté, clair et répondant tout à fait à mes demandes
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Very knowledgeable pianist on a both practical and theoretical basis; can highly recommend!
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Les cours de mon fils Léo avec Aurélien ont bien passé. Son stratégie est bon, efficacité et compréhensif pour les enfants. Mon fils est très motivé de continuer avec Aurélien.
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Aurélien a tout de suite su percevoir les difficultés d'Aymar et a su lui donner les techniques, les conseils et les appuis qui lui manquaient. Cet éclairage nouveau a permis à Aymar de prendre confiance en son jeu et de se sentir prêt pour jouer devant un public. Une grande connaissance pianistique doublée d'une réelle écoute et bienveillance, ont donné à Aymar l'envie de se dépasser. Et c'est avec plaisir qu'il viendra à nouveau présenter à Aurélien les fugues de Bach sur lesquelles il travaille. Un seul regret : habiter trop loin de la capitale pour qu'Aymar puisse venir plus souvent....
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Vif, à l’écoute, concentré, sensible, clair, concret.
Pédagogiquement très efficace.
Idéal pour rapidement très bien apprendre à jouer du piano !- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! I contacted Aurelien because I was looking for someone to coach me before my entrance audition at Conservatory of Paris. He actually gave me really good technical advice and helped me with my choice of pieces (Liszt Etude). Also he told me how to feel more relaxed and how to practice the days before the audition. My audition is in a few weeks from now, but I definitely feel more confident after that lesson. Thanks!
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Mes deux premiers cours avec Aurélien se sont très bien passé. Il a su me motiver car j'avais joué étant adolescent, mais j'ai énormément de lacunes. Il m'a également rassuré en me donnant un plan d'action précis sur les prochaines semaines pour que je réussisse à jouer mes morceaux favoris (Beethoven Appassionata). J'avais l'impression d'être un peu perdu dans ma progression au piano, et maintenant je sais exactement quoi faire. Cela s'annonce bien!
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Aurélien est un professeur de piano très pédagogue et patient. C'est idéal pour appréhender cet instrument et ressentir rapidement les progrès !
- Aurélien's response :
Excellent! Aurélien donne des cours depuis peu à ma fille Madeleine qui a 13 ans. Elle est ravie. Aurélien n'est jamais avare de conseils. Il sait à la fois être exigeant et communiquer son amour du piano. Pas son enthousiasme, il met ses élèves dans une vraie dynamique d'apprentissage.
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! J’ai eu la chance de prendre des cours avec Adrien. C’est un très bon professeur et qui possède une bonne pédagogie. J’ai vite senti une progression grâce à ses conseils. C’est aussi une personne très agréable. Je le recommande vivement!
- Aurélien's response :
Perfect! Très bon professeur

Je suis clarinettiste mais je voulais depuis longtemps me mettre au piano car c'est indispensable pour être bon musicien. Aurélien m'avait été recommandé via le conservatoire, et je ne regrette pas mon choix.
Il a su me donner des outils pratiques pour réussir à progresser malgré mon emploi du temps chargé.Nos 2 enfants de 7 et 10 ans prennent des cours avec Aurélien depuis quelques mois. C'est un professeur qui est à l'écoute et il a réussi à s'adapter à leur personnalité et à leur niveau. Ils ont même joué des morceaux de quatre mains ensemble à plusieurs reprises, c'était un plaisir de les voir jouer ensemble à la maison, s'écouter et se donner des conseils entre eux sur le morceau !
I met Aurelien last September, when we moved from Australia to Paris with my family.
Aurelien is the perfect teacher for both of my kids, adapting to their respective level and being very patient.
He is also very comunicative about his passion for music and he has amazing piano skills!
The fact that he can teach in English was definitely helpful for the kids.Ma fille Léa a été très contente de ce professeur, elle a pu apprendre en quelques mois des morceaux faciles et elle est toujours motivée pour aller au cours. Au top !
