I approach all lessons according to the skills of each individual. For each instrument I give the appropriate pieces to develop skills. In keyboard lessons (Piano, organ, harpsichord) we have an approach to music theory, witch is essential to play and to understand music as a whole.
Im Francisco Ramos, i acquired my skills through many years of being choir conductor and organist, what gave me a really new perception of teaching. From managing choirs, private organ/piano teaching to harpsichord lessons, i can offer a real new experience learning an instrument. I have the 5th grade in the conservatoire and a foundation in music. I am currently a BA (Hons) Music Recording and Production student. I am also a keyboard player in a band.
