Question 1

Do I need my own drum kit or guitar?

Accepted Answer

For beginners, a basic e-drum set or starter guitar is perfectly fine. We'll talk through what makes sense for your level and goals in the first session. Online students will of course need their own instrument at home.

Question 2

How much does a lesson cost?

Accepted Answer

A lesson costs €20 (30 min) or €35 (60 min). The trial lesson is completely free and with no commitment. All prices are on the teaching page.

Question 3

What levels do you teach?

Accepted Answer

All levels — from absolute beginners to advanced musicians working on specific techniques or styles. Lessons are individually tailored to your current level and goals.

Question 4

Do you offer online lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes, online lessons via video call are available worldwide at any time. All you need: an instrument, a stable internet connection and the desire to learn.

Question 5

How often should I practise per week?

Accepted Answer

15–30 minutes daily is more effective than one long session per week. We'll develop concrete practice plans in lessons that fit into your everyday life.

Question 6

What happens in the first lesson?

Accepted Answer

The first lesson is a getting-to-know-you session: we talk about your goals, I look at how you play, and we define together which direction to take. No pressure — there's no right or wrong.

Question 7

In what format do you deliver remote recordings?

Accepted Answer

Standard is WAV, 24bit / 48kHz, cleanly named and ready for the mix. Other formats or sample rates are available on request.

Question 8

What do I need to send for a remote recording?

Accepted Answer

Send me your backing tracks or stems, ideally with a click track. Charts or chord sheets are helpful but not strictly necessary. I'll get in touch before recording if I have questions.

Question 9

How long does a remote recording take?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the project. For a standard song (3–4 min) I typically need 1–2 working days from receiving all materials.

Question 10

Do you bring your own equipment to live gigs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I generally bring my own setup. We'll discuss backline requirements beforehand — every event is different.

Question 11

What is musician coaching and who is it for?

Accepted Answer

Musician coaching is for musicians of all levels who want to grow beyond technical skills — whether that's performance anxiety, practice strategies, artistic identity or career questions. It's not instrument tuition, but work on the musician as a whole person.

Question 12

What does a coaching session look like?

Accepted Answer

A session typically lasts 60 minutes, online via video call. We define a concrete topic or goal at the start and then work through it in a structured way. After each session you leave with concrete tasks or impulses.

Question 13

Can I combine coaching and lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes, many students combine both. In lessons we work on technique, in coaching on everything around it — mindset, performance, career. It often develops naturally from the teaching process.

Question 14

Where are you based and how far do you travel for gigs?

Accepted Answer

I'm based in Paphos, Cyprus. Online lessons and remote recordings are available worldwide. For live gigs I'm happy to travel — just write to me with the details.

Question 15

How do I book a session or lesson?

Accepted Answer

Via the contact form on the booking page. I usually reply within 24 hours.

Question 16

Is there a trial lesson?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the first lesson works as a trial. If it's not the right fit, that's no problem. I believe good chemistry between teacher and student is the foundation of successful learning.
