What Students & Families Say
A few words from students and parents who have shared their experience.
Working with Iryna was simply outstanding. Her professionalism and dedication make her an exceptional teacher. I made tremendous progress in a short time. She knows how to be demanding when necessary to bring out your best, while remaining a very warm and personable person who makes learning a lot of fun. I recommend her without hesitation to anyone who wants to improve their musical level.
(Translated from German)
Iryna gave my daughter her very first year of piano lessons. My daughter had never played before and she went from not being able to play at all to performing extremely well in a recital within six months. Iryna is an excellent teacher, not only technically, but also relationally. She instilled in my daughter a passion to practice outside of lessons which resulted in swift improvement and a pleasure in the process of learning. We miss Iryna and would have continued lessons with her had she not moved out of our area.
I followed Iryna lessons for 5 years. She is a great teacher, I learnt to play piano but also spent a lot of good moments and learnt about music in general. I highly recommend!
Irina was our piano teacher (for me and my kids) during 3 years in Geneva. She is SUPER!!! When she left, we were so sad and we miss her so much! But we are happy to know that she is developping her network and we wish her the best. We strongly recommend her!
Iryna is amazing, super patient and talented, our two kids love her lessons!

What You'll Learn
Foundational Technique
Proper posture, hand position, finger independence, scales, arpeggios, and essential exercises that build the physical foundation for expressive playing.
Repertoire Development
I choose repertoire according to each student's wishes and goals, whether exploring classical masterpieces, jazz standards, popular songs, film music, or other genres. Every piece is selected to inspire while developing technique, musicality, and personal artistic expression.
Musical Interpretation
I explain the historical and musical context of each piece, including information about the composer and the period in which the music was written. I teach music theory (notes, rhythm, harmony, basic solfège, and more) and analyze the structure of the music to make it easier to understand and perform with confidence and authentic expression.
Performance Preparation
Building confidence at the instrument, learning to manage performance anxiety, and developing strong mental preparation for recitals, exams, auditions, and competitions. This includes focus techniques, effective practice strategies, stage presence, and the ability to perform with security, concentration, and musical freedom.
