What my students say

Christos is a fantastic musician, pianist, and teacher! He always cares about his students and is available to answer any questions I may have. He genuinely loves helping his students achieve their goals and has a wonderful ability to adapt his teaching to students of all levels. I’m so proud and happy to have him as my teacher!

Working with Christos has been an excellent experience. He is a very warm and caring man who loves music very much. All of this can be seen in the way he works as a teacher. He is very detail-oriented and makes sure that you not only learn but that you understand everything. The pace at which he does things is also quite comfortable and effective. One of the things that I really appreciate is that he not only teaches technique, but also gives attention to such important aspects as perspective, mentality, musical knowledge and attitude towards playing and learning. Each lesson feels like it was made for me as a specific individual and is not done according to any fixed formula. He helps me see music from a different angle and gives practical skills as well.

Christos is genuinely the best teacher I have ever had. He has a true passion for teaching and a sincere interest in each of his students and their progress. He has an incredible ability to explain even complex concepts in a clear, engaging, and inspiring way, and his enthusiasm for jazz and music is truly contagious. He is constantly learning, developing, and expanding his own knowledge, which makes his teaching feel fresh and incredibly valuable. On top of that, he provides amazing resources and excellent teaching materials that make studying and practising so much easier and more enjoyable. I feel very lucky to have him as my jazz piano teacher and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!

His patience, his ability to simplify the learning process, and above all, his genuine love for jazz are qualities that are very hard to find in another teacher or in any other online course. His goal is not simply to make you a better musician, but to show you how jazz can make you a better person. I feel truly lucky because I literally started from zero and found Christos, who showed me that jazz is not just a style of music, it is a way of life. If you love jazz and genuinely want to understand it, I highly recommend taking lessons with him or following one of his courses.

I’m a professional musician and music teacher, and Christos is my Teacher with a capital T. He’s the one who opens up my musical horizons so I don’t repeat myself. He explains difficult things in the simplest possible way, so they’re quickly understood. I call him “a music library” because he knows so much and has the funniest stories and anecdotes from the world of music. He is one of the kindest, most generous and smartest people I know. I’ve become a better musician and music teacher because of him, and I always get in touch with him when I’m stuck. Absolutely superb!

I’ve studied jazz piano with Christos for a few years. He has an excellent system for learning and a deep knowledge of jazz music. I’m very excited and I’d like to say it: I’m becoming a good jazz pianist. I strongly recommend Christos to anyone who wants to become a jazz pianist.

Christos is an exceptionally capable and organised teacher. I met him at summer group webinars he ran, and he made a huge impression on me. I’m a classical pianist and piano teacher myself and wanted to broaden my horizons. The way he organises his material, the clear thematic units in the lessons and his deep knowledge of the subject won me over straight away. I think he is the ideal choice for anyone who wants to learn jazz piano inside and out. Go with him!

Christos is much more than a mentor; he is an amazing teacher with an open mind and a deep understanding of modern music theory, composition and orchestration! I feel very lucky that he was the one who introduced me to the magical world of music. He shares his knowledge generously and clearly, encouraging personal expression and the exploration of new ideas. If you want to learn music, there’s no better teacher in Greece 🙂

An excellent teacher, with boundless love for what he does and an endless knowledge of music, and not only jazz. Someone who keeps evolving: methodical, patient and genuinely interested in each of his students. Truly unique in Greece in what he does.

Christos is a teacher who truly stands out!!! He has deep knowledge, but above all he has a way of making you love jazz and believe in yourself. In every lesson I feel that I’m growing and that I can express myself freely. I appreciate him very much and thank him for everything he has given me.

Christos Mastrogiannidis is the teacher that students of every age and level need in order to discover, understand and love music. With his deep knowledge, he inspires and guides his students to find their own path. I recommend him without reservation to anyone who wants to take this adventurous and exciting journey. I feel lucky and grateful!

An excellent teacher, with thorough theoretical training and high-level playing skills. He has a complete method for learning the language of jazz, and he teaches with patience and persistence. Lessons with him are a very positive experience.

Christos is an amazing teacher: thorough, patient and always ready to help! The group jazz piano lessons are very useful for getting over the anxiety of playing in front of others, and you also learn to notice your own mistakes and other people’s, so you improve more. I recommend them without reservation!

Christos Mastrogiannidis is an excellent music teacher! With patience, a gift for explaining and real interest, he makes every lesson enjoyable and meaningful. I recommend him without reservation, and not only for piano lessons.

An excellent teacher, with method, knowledge and vision like few others. Pioneering in his understanding of music and in his relationship with his students.
