Présentation

Since 2021, I’ve been teaching vocals and songwriting, and facilitating music and creative workshops in classroom settings, nonprofits, and refugee centres.

After graduating with a BA (Hons) in Songwriting from BIMM London, I travelled to Berlin, Athens, and Dublin, where I collaborated with gifted musicians and worked as a teacher and workshop facilitator. I set up my own creative workshop programme for Ukrainian children in Berlin and completed a Creative Therapy course as part of my work with refugees in 2022. In 2024, I finished my MA in Community Music and am now co-directing a nonprofit called Gathering Futures that focuses on community music and asset-based community development.

I view teaching vocals and songwriting as a therapeutic, holistic process, where my students learn techniques and practical tools that help them hone their craft but also work through psychological blockages that make them into greater artists.

Hello! I'm David, a spanish flutist. I really enjoy teaching and performing, and I have previous experience as a flute teacher back in Spain, so I would like to have some new students here in Ghent as well. I can also help you with other music stuff like theory, solfege and harmony if you want that. My music lessons are suitable for all level students, from begginers to advanced players, and we can work either in classical repertoire or in any other genre that you'd like (pop, irish, rock).

Lessons can take place face to face in my house or any other point inside of Ghent, or online from the comfort of your own room.

Please, don't hesitate to contact me with any of the questions you have.

Hi! I'm a violinist currently finishing a Master's in Music at Royal Conservatory in Ghent. I started playing violin at the age of 6, and studying with numerous professors made me realize how important an individualized pedagogical approach is for good development. My aim is to motivate students to be creative and enjoy playing music, helping them express their own ideas. A relaxed and natural technique is always one of my focuses, to avoid future injuries and to find ease while playing that will allow you to explore your musicality and feel free.

Clarinet lessons at all levels: from absolute beginners to advanced players.
For me as a teacher it is very important to start from the wishes, needs and competences of the student himself.
You can follow lessons via webcam, or at your home near the Ghent - Kortrijk region.
If you don't have an instrument available, you can rent one from me. This offer is limited, so please inquire if you're interested.
Regarding music and other material: that is taken by me.

Customized lessons:
Teaching beginning children, beginning adults, or experienced students are completely different experiences that require completely different methods.

A constant focus in all cases is to ensure that students learn notation and music reading, which gives them some independence.

As a first step, I create a plan together with the student, depending on his or her personal goals, and supplement this with musical pieces that I think will complement the learning path.

Practical information:

I am available for online classes from August and at home from September 15, but I will not close schedules until the beginning of October.

If you have any questions or specific comments, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Hello! My name is Marcos, I am a clarinetist and I live in Brussels. I offer private lessons in person (they can be at your place or mine) or online.
I have experience as a teacher for the last few years with children, adults, individual and group classes. Professional or amateur level.
In my lessons, I help students find a good contact with the instrument and cultivate a positive relationship with music by integrating the development of auditory skills, a sense of rhythm and optimal use of the body, allowing them to connect with their musical imagination.
Lessons are tailored to the needs and desires of each student.
The most important thing is that we have a good time!
