Artem Selikhanovych

The professional pianist, composer and teacher with over 6 years’ experience teaching children, teenagers and adults of all ability levels. I specialise in jazz piano, jazz improvisation, harmony and the development of musical thinking.

I design lesson programmes and plans taking into account the age-specific characteristics, level of proficiency, interests and goals of each individual student. During lessons, I create a friendly atmosphere, whilst maintaining clearly defined boundaries, which helps to preserve a healthy balance in the teacher-student relationship.
