About Elena
I am a Russian-trained concert pianist and teacher with 23 years of teaching experience and more than two decades of professional performing experience.
I graduated with honours from the Academic Music College at the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory and from the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music. I also completed postgraduate studies at the Gnessin Academy and later taught there for several years.
As a soloist and chamber musician, I have performed in concert halls, festivals and international tours across Europe, Asia, South America and the CIS. My professional work has also included masterclasses and competition jury work.
I am a First Prize winner of the Salieri-Zinetti International Chamber Music Competition in Verona and the Max Reger International Chamber Music Competition in Karlsruhe. I have also recorded two chamber music CDs for the Russian classical label Melodiya.
My teaching is rooted in the Russian classical tradition, in which technique, listening, musical thought and artistic expression are developed together. I translate this professional training into clear and practical work appropriate to each student’s level.
I work with adult beginners, returning pianists, advanced amateurs, motivated teenagers, and students preparing for ABRSM or Trinity graded and diploma examinations, auditions and performances. My international teaching experience allows me to work effectively with students from different cultural and educational backgrounds.
My aim is not simply to increase the amount of repertoire a student can play. Each new piece should become both an artistically convincing result and a step towards stronger reading, more secure rhythm and technique, a more refined ear, clearer musical understanding and increasingly independent work.

Good piano teaching should not force a choice between exam progress, secure technique and convincing musical performance. These should develop together.
A student may complete one grade or prepare one piece after another while important foundations remain weak. Reading is still slow, rhythm insecure, technique poorly organised, and practice consists mainly of repetition followed by correction at the next lesson.
My lessons are designed so that the repertoire, examination progress and the pianist’s own abilities develop together.
Reading, rhythm, coordination, technique, listening, memory, harmony, form, phrasing and expression are developed as parts of one musical system through the repertoire itself.
Before the hands begin to repeat, we establish what is written, how the musical material is organised, where the phrase is moving, what sound and character we are aiming for, and what movement and technical organisation can produce that result. We then work phrase by phrase, connecting musical intention, inner hearing, physical movement and sound.
This approach does not place analysis above practical playing. It prevents repetition without a clear musical and physical purpose. Technique serves sound and freedom; understanding of the score serves expression; and an artistically convincing performance remains an essential result.
For beginners, this means developing secure reading, rhythm, coordination, listening and healthy technical habits from the start. Returning and continuing pianists rebuild missing foundations and learn to organise their practice more effectively. Advanced students refine sound, technique, structure, interpretation, memory and performance reliability.
I prepare students for ABRSM and Trinity graded and diploma examinations, as well as auditions, performances and demanding classical repertoire. Exam preparation includes the musical and technical foundation required for the level, not only the polishing of a fixed programme.
The 30-minute introductory meeting offered through Superprof is used to discuss your goals, previous experience, lesson format and whether this approach is the right fit. It is not used as a shortened working lesson.
The first full working lesson allows me to assess your current foundation, repertoire and practice habits and establish the most useful order of work. Afterwards, you receive a concise written summary of the main priorities and direction of study.
Regular lessons are intended for students who value consistent weekly work and long-term musical development rather than occasional correction of isolated pieces.
A small number of regular weekly places are available for the remainder of 2026.

I returned to piano after many years and needed structured guidance. Elena helped me reorganise my technique step by step. The lessons are focused and efficient
Elena has been preparing my daughter for ABRSM Grade 5. Her lessons are highly structured and goal-oriented. Each week comes with clear practice instructions, which makes home practice much more efficient. My daughter’s technical control and confidence have improved significantly.
