Gorkem Agar

Hello! I’m Görkem Agar, a pianist, composer, and music tutor with over 8 years of experience in the industry. I specialize in piano, composition, music production, music theory, and orchestration, offering personalized lessons to students of all levels—from beginners to advanced musicians looking to refine their skills.

I hold a master's degree in Composition for Visual Media from the CNSMD of Lyon. In addition to teaching, I have composed and arranged music for films, series, video games, and concert music, including projects for Netflix and Amazon Prime in Europe. I’ve also had the privilege of recording my compositions at Galaxy Studios, one of the top recording facilities in Europe.

My teaching philosophy revolves around making learning both enjoyable and accessible. I personalize each lesson to match the student's needs and goals, whether it's preparing for conservatory exams, LCM or ABRSM exams, or simply enhancing their musical abilities. I believe in using interactive exercises, creative projects, and real-world applications to keep students engaged and motivated.

My lessons cover a wide range of music styles, including classical, jazz, electronic, and pop music. I’m passionate about fostering a supportive, collaborative learning environment where students feel encouraged to explore their creativity and musical expression.

Whether you're looking to improve your piano playing, dive deeper into music production, or enhance your overall musical understanding, I’m here to help guide you on your journey. Let’s make music together!

As a piano tutor, I believe in a structured yet flexible approach to teaching that combines technical skill-building with creativity. I work with students of all levels—whether they are in school, college, or adults pursuing personal or professional goals. My teaching philosophy is to make learning both enjoyable and effective by tailoring each lesson to the student’s needs.

My approach is hands-on and demonstrative, focusing on developing a solid foundation of technical skills while fostering creativity in performance and composition. I customize lessons based on the student’s preferred genres, whether it’s classical, jazz, pop, or electronic music, ensuring that the learning process aligns with their musical interests.

When I begin working with a new student, I assess their abilities, goals, and interests to create a personalized learning plan. By incorporating techniques such as ear training, sight-reading, and improvisation, I help students build a well-rounded understanding of music. Whether you are preparing for exams, pursuing a career in music, or learning for personal enjoyment, my goal is to make lessons engaging and rewarding while helping you reach your full potential.
