Hi there, I’ve been playing guitar since I was 12 and was immediately hooked. Within a year I started playing in youth bands and projects, and during high school I moved to a music school where I began performing with bands and teaching guitar to kids as my first job. I later completed two bachelor’s degrees, the second in jazz guitar, at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Since then I’ve been working full time as a session guitarist, songwriter, and musical director with artists like Karsu, Alain Clark, Ruth Jacott, Jennie Lena, and many others, as well as releasing my own music as an independent artist under my stage name Jessy Hay. I’m extremely passionate about music theory, ear training, and music history, and I try to combine all of these with practical approaches to create a complete package for guitar enthusiasts. Over the years I’ve developed many methods and seen hundreds of students grow from being stuck on the instrument to becoming full-on improvisers and composers across many genres. I love to combine the theory and improvisation I’ve learned from jazz, together with the groove and rhythm from funk and soul, the attitude from rock, and the production and songwriting skills from pop music. I’m also very interested in Middle Eastern music, for students who want to explore other scales, Maqams, and musical languages. Lessons usually start by discussing the student’s goals and current level, followed by exercises and pieces tailored to their needs. I also provide guidance on instrument setup, tone, and technique, to ensure a solid foundation. My aim is to give students a full 360° view of music: understanding the language, knowing what you’re doing, and developing your own ways of improving by becoming more familiar with both the instrument and the musical language itself. If this sounds like something for you, I would love to hear from you.

Hi! I’m Oleg, a professional guitarist and music educator based in Groningen, Netherlands. I hold a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Guitar from Prins Claus Conservatorium, however most of my musical education happened on real stages — performing, touring, and working full-time as a musician since 2016. I’ve toured internationally aboard Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, P&O, Cunard, Ponant, and Princess Cruises, performing everything from solo sets and jazz nights to full-scale theatre productions with singers, dancers, and a full technical crew for audiences up to 1500 people. This experience shaped me into a truly versatile musician — equally comfortable playing jazz, rock, blues, funk, bossanova, pop. 🔽 I can teach you how to play: ⚡️🎸Electric guitar 🎵🎸Acoustic guitar 🔊🎸Bass guitar 🎼🎸Classical guitar 🔽 What you’ll get: ➡️ 1-on-1 private lesson via Zoom or in person at my home studio ➡️ Personalized approach for your skill level and musical goals ➡️ Focus on the basics: technique, rhythm, harmony, ear development ➡️ Real-world insights from a full-time performing musician ➡️ Sheet music, exercises and backing tracks tailored for you ➡️ Lessons available in English or Russian 🔽 Lesson focus areas: 🎸 Technique 🎶 Improvisation & Composition 🎸 Fretboard knowledge 🎵 Ear training 📘 Music theory & harmony & sight-reading 💻 Music notation (Sibelius, Guitar Pro) 🔽 All levels welcome Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or you’re an experienced player wanting to sharpen your skills, I tailor every lesson to your needs.

Do you want to refine your composing for the piano? This course is for you. In this class we will work on a new piece of yours that includes the piano, and we will discuss about: • a short anatomy of the grand piano. • easy, difficult and unplayable passages (with normal and extended techniques). • the role of pedals on the instrument. • muscle fatigue - the importance of dense and sparse writing. • use of texture and colour. • orchestration on the instrument. Standard extended techniques - notation. • the role of the instrument in the contemporary orchestra and sinfonietta ensemble. • improvisation: dos and don'ts when writing improvised music. The piece can be an idea you had for solo piano/chamber or vocal music (with piano) and want to start composing, a solo piece you have started but you're now stuck on the technical capabilities and difficulties of the instrument, an orchestral piece that contains the piano and you need to better understand its role, or even an old piece which you want to review. Things we'll do: • I'll show you around the piano and its parts (full demonstration of the mechanism). • I'll demonstrate the use of certain extended techniques on my piano. • I'll be testing passages of your piece and give technical advice. You'll have the opportunity to test some passages from your piece as well (optional but highly encouraged). • We'll be listening to some important pieces as aid to each topic we are discussing. The pieces will be from all periods and styles. If you have a composition teacher or you are studying composition at a university: This course is BY NO MEANS a substitute to your teacher. Things like form, composition technique, harmony, style, texture etc. are up to your teacher and you. I may speak my mind on those topics as well, but my goal is not to substitute your teacher, but rather to help you with a more specialised approach to the instrument both from the side of the composer and the performer. If you don't have a composition teacher: Then I am happy to help you with composing this piece of yours. However, note that this may take more time, and we may need to discuss separately a few things about composition. Booking policy: If you want to book this course, then you must have in mind that we'll need several 60 or 90 minutes sessions to complete it. If we do one 90 minute session about one topic from the above, then we certainly need 8-10 sessions to complete the course. So if you are planning for us to talk about everything above, note that fact and plan accordingly (both in terms of schedule and finances). You may as well choose to do a selection from the topics above, or even ask me to show you something else and if I can I will. What I want though is a clear plan, a clear goal for this course, so that I'll cater it to your individual needs. I kindly ask that if you plan on doing the whole course to book it in advance. I also have a quite difficult schedule as an active musician, so we need to be accurate on our scheduling and don't change it all the time. I also reserve the right to deny an application due to time constraints. Sessions will be scheduled on a weekly basis (once a week), and this is for two reasons: 1. I want to be able to provide the best experience for you by planning the lessons to my best capacity, and 2. You will need time to study and work on your piece. All sessions are booked and paid in advance. Cancelling policy: • If any of us gets sick, then we may cancel a session and postpone it for the next time (provided we are in good health). • Hospitalisation and serious health conditions may lead us to cancel several sessions. In that case, paid sessions are "frozen" indefinitely (until we get well) and (in great need) refunded. However, to refund those sessions I'll need to see at least some verification from the hospital. • If you are booking several sessions in advance, you may lose one or two sessions and we'll postpone it for the next time, but no more than two. The third session lost will be paid as an extra session. You'll need to notify me for the lost sessions at least 2 days in advance. • The same works in the opposite way: I may lose a session or two, but no more than two. If I lose a third, then I'll owe you an extra session free of charge. However, I reserve the right to cancel a course completely (see below). • If you are booking one lesson and you don't show up in the first 15 minutes or notify me of your absence, then the lesson is cancelled and not refunded. • For many reasons, I'll may need to cancel the whole course with you. Sometimes people just aren't on the same wavelength, sometimes work or life gets to us, sometimes you may need a more capable teacher etc. If I cancel with you, then I will need to refund the sessions we didn't do. HOWEVER, if you don't show up and not notify me for two sessions or more, then I will not refund you for the lost sessions. I will reach out and give you a "last chance" to show up to a final session, and if you won't show up I'll automatically consider the course with you cancelled and not refund the remaining sessions. Dos and don'ts: I want this to be a safe space, where we'll be exchanging views and sharpening our tools. I like to behave accordingly and be calm and just talk and present something I love. However, I will need to talk about some things with some authority, and I need space from you to do so. So, snickering, whining, interrupting and being toxic in general isn't for me. If something bothers me, I will express it, and I also want for you to do the same. Finally, I teach (high) intermediate level or advanced, meaning that some things will be considered given and known. You must know -for example- to read score, sometimes complex, you must know at least some harmony and counterpoint and have a clear goal as a composer. I don't judge your stylistic choices, my goal is to help you widen your pallet, but you need to be at a certain knowledge level to keep up. So when you reach out to me to book a lesson you also need to send me a couple of your pieces, complete with score (or if they are improvisational you must note it). Based on them we'll proceed (again, not stylistic choice but based on your knowledge level). Thank you for reading this, happy to work with you!
