I’m very happy to share a small professional update — I’ve recently completed additional training in Play Therapy techniques.
For me, this is about continuing to develop the play-based methods I already use in my work with children, especially when supporting emotional regulation and emotional intelligence.
Very often, what adults may see as “just a difficult character”, “stubbornness” or simply a phase can actually be a sign that a child is finding it difficult to understand, express or manage their emotions.
Children do not always have the words to explain what they feel. Through carefully selected play-based activities, emotional development exercises and creative techniques, they can gradually learn to recognise emotions, express themselves more confidently and build better self-regulation skills.
I also integrate music into my work, because music is a powerful tool for a child’s development. Not only for learning to play an instrument, but for learning to listen, notice emotions, express feelings, develop attention and better understand themselves.

As a children’s educator, it is very important for me to continue improving my knowledge and professional skills. One of the most meaningful parts of my work is when parents begin to notice positive changes in their child and feel that everyday communication becomes calmer and easier.

Sometimes, the right support at the right time can make a very meaningful difference for both the child and the whole family.

Childhood Anxiety: Why Is It Important Not to Ignore It?

Sometimes a child is afraid, worried, asks the same questions over and over again, or doesn’t want to try something new.

As adults, it’s easy to say:
“Don’t be afraid.”
“Nothing to worry about.”
“Stop worrying.”

But anxiety is a real feeling for a child. They can’t always just switch it off.

If we ignore a child’s anxiety or respond with anger or shouting, they may start to believe that their feelings are wrong — and that it’s better not to talk about them.

So, what can really help?

• Listen calmly and without judgment.
• Name the emotion: “I can see that you’re scared.”
• Let your child know that feeling anxious is normal.
• Help them find a solution, taking small steps together.
• Show them that there is a trusted adult who is always there for them.

That’s why it’s so important not to leave a child’s emotional difficulties unattended.

When needed, a specialist can help a child understand their emotions, learn how to regulate them, and gradually become more confident in dealing with anxiety.

Support and professional help are not about protecting a child from every difficult feeling.

They are about teaching a child how to cope with those feelings.

Summer trend!

It’s so lovely to see my students practising the piano even during their holidays!

And I’m especially proud that they’re not afraid to play in front of an audience — even at the airport!

Well done, boys!

Music lessons can happen anywhere — even from home!

During our online piano lessons, we work on technique, rhythm, musical expression and new pieces, while keeping the lesson engaging and enjoyable.

The screen doesn’t stop us from making music together. We listen, play, correct mistakes, experiment and celebrate every little improvement.

Every lesson is a chance to discover something new and enjoy the magic of music.
