I started my musical studies at the age of six in classical piano at the Ternopil Music School in Ukraine.
Later I continued my journey in S. Krushelnytska Ternopil Music College which I graduated with qualification of Piano Teacher, Artist of the Chamber Ensemble, Concertmaster and received a Diploma in Classical Piano .
In 2009 I graduated from Odessa Music Conservatory in Ukraine, and later that year was accepted to graduate school of Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts where I received a Master Degree of Musical Arts and obtained qualification of the Teacher of Piano Class, Artist of the Chamber Ensemble, and Concertmaster.
Now I have been teaching piano for over 17 years. My students range from 4 years old to 50+ years old and levels from a "first time see piano" to advanced players.
I believe that developing of artistic and imaginative thinking in my students, is as important as building up their knowledge of piano technic, music theory, music analysis and ensemble playing skills. I personalize my lessons to the individual musical goals of each student.
Gaylna has been teaching our two girls (now ages 9 and 12) for a couple of years and we've been very pleased with progress. Galyna's approach emphasizes good technique & posture, practicing habits, and attention to musical nuance, all of which were important to us. If you or your child want to learn to play classical piano well, you should check out this piano studio!
I have been taking weekly piano lessons with Galyna since the beginning of 2016. Galyna is a great teacher, who is encouraging and understanding. Her teaching is a well balanced combination of technique, theory and musical expression. She gives clear instruction, and she can figure out the physiological and mental barriers that trouble me, and then guides me through them and helps me make quick progress. Learning with Galyna is also a very enjoyable thing. She can always find the right practice materials that challenge me technically, but reward me with lots of joys of music at the same time. I'm very fortunate to have Galyna as my teacher, and I highly recommend her to anyone who is planning to take piano lessons.
Galyna has taught my son music for more than a couple of years now. As parents, we are happy and content with the results. Her professionalism including her structural way of teaching works. More Power!
