Electric bass lessons by a professional teacher, suitable for all levels!
From 36.62 £ /h
Music is one of the cornerstones of a healthy and happy life and it would be my pleasure to help guide you through part of your musical journey. I teach all skill levels and ambitions, whether you want to play bass a hobby, set up a band with friends or want to prepare for a conservatory audition, I can help you. In my teaching I try to give you the best foundational skills to achieve your musical goals. This means a high level of customization is possible if you have an idea of what direction you want to head down, but I will of course guide you on the way as well.
As a bassist my strong suits are Rock, Pop, RnB and Neo Soul but through the years I have recorded and played live shows in a host of different genres (Jazz, Fusion, Reggae, Ska, Hard rock etc) so my teaching is by all means not contained to a few genres, I believe having a good overview over different kinds of music is very important.
I am originally from Rotterdam, the Netherlands and have been playing bass since I was 13 years old. I graduated in 2023 with a degree in Electric Bass from BIMM Berlin and have studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston (Summer 2018), Holland College in Canada (2019-2020) and am an alumni of the Popkurs at the HfmT Hamburg (2025). As a session bassist in Berlin I have recorded in many great studios with Grammy award winning and nominated producers and engineers (Sting, Billie Eilish). Apart from this I play for multiple artists and have played shows in venues such as Festsaal Kreuzberg, Columbiatheater, Lido, Badehaus, Maschinenhaus, Kantine Am Berghain, Privatclub and run a YouTube channel with over 500.000 views. Next to this I teach students both in person and online and occasionally work at a music venue, basically I do anything to always be in a musical environment!
I can't wait to get started with helping you achieve your musical goals!

About Me
In my teaching I maintain a lot of individuality. I do not teach with a rigorous system or method in place but leave much room to tailor my lessons to the needs and interests of the student, which I believe to be the best approach as everyone has different goals and Electric bass as an instrument has many 'correct' ways to be approached. This can range from students wanting to occasionally play a couple songs with their friends all the way to students looking to get admitted into conservatories and delving into intense studies. However, no matter what goals you set for yourself the most important thing in studying the bass remains to have fun.
Education
I hold a bachelor degree in Professional Musicianship from BIMM Berlin which I graduated from in 2023. Apart from this I have spent time studying at Holland College in Canada and Berklee College of Music in Boston.
