Meeting world leaders and performing as well as taking part in debates in the United Nations in Geneva promoting 'Justice and Reconciliation' - the theme of the programme.
I also gained a certificate from a Baku State Junior Music School, where teaching followed the renowned Russian piano-school tradition.
Having experienced music education and training from several countries and educational traditions, I have been able to draw on the strengths of each approach. This broad international perspective enables me to bring the very best methods, techniques, and musical insights to my teaching, helping students develop strong foundations, confidence, and a genuine enjoyment of music.

Marina is a wonderful music and vocal teacher. She is very talented and has great skills & patience with small kids. She values teaching music to the highest standards. She ensures the hand position all the time. We are delighted that she is our music teacher.
Marina is a lovey person and a brilliant teacher, my daughter is learning really well with her.
Marina has been teaching both my children (aged 7 and 8) on both singing and piano. I have some musical experience and was trying (and failing) to teach them myself :(
Marina has a wonderful approach to teaching and uses innovative techniques to correct certain technical issues eg. Using various excercises for voice projection. My daughter is singing with a much fuller tone and better expression of voice.
Marina also has great attention to detail eg. Teaching correct piano hand and finger positioning, helping the kids better differentiate legato and staccato, phrasing and dynamics.
She balances lessons being fun with musical discipline which is always a huge challenge !
The most important thing is that the kids love her and for that reason I’d highly recommend her.
Thanks for all your help so far Marina!Marina has an incredible ability to break down complex pieces into manageable parts, ensuring that I understand the theory and practice behind each concept. Her patience and genuine passion for music make every session enjoyable and inspiring. I appreciate how she takes the time to listen to my goals and adapt lessons accordingly, making the learning process both effective and fun.
Miss Marina is a wonderful and welcoming teacher. She is exceptional at her job because she notices small details and uses that to give constructive feedback. She is very encouraging and I have noticed my technique and my overall ability to play piano improve drastically. I could not recommend her enough.
As a new beginner to the piano, I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher than Marina. Her pleasant approach makes learning both enjoyable and effective. Marina’s patience and ability to explain concepts boosted my confidence in playing. Not only is she an excellent piano teacher, but she’s also a lovely singer. I highly recommend Marina to anyone looking to learn the piano. Her passion for music and teaching truly shines.
Marina was very welcoming and caring when teaching me the basics of the piano. She was great at teaching me in a way which didn’t feel overwhelming. I recommend Marina to anyone who wants to learn to play the piano! Thanks Marina!
