FR, ENG Private teacher, cello and/or music theory lessons in Brussels, children and adults.

From 36 £ /h

I teach you to play the cello, to open up more deeply to the world of music.
Whether you are beginner, intermediate, or even more advanced. From children to adults. I also offer musical awareness.

Originally from Auvergne and Paris, I am currently pursuing my musical journey at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in Marie Hallynck's class.
I hold a Diploma in Musical Studies in cello, obtained at the Regional Conservatory of Rueil-Malmaison in the Paris region.

My teaching experience: private cello teacher, cello teacher within the French organization Orchester à l'Ecole, whose objective is to allow easier accessibility to classical music for children who are far from it, piano teacher , music theory teacher.

Depending on the level of the student, I put in place an adapted work program, which combines non-exhaustively: 1/ learning the necessary bases in music theory in order to be able to read music, to be comfortable with a score 2/ of course, cello practice, one step after the other! 3/ initiation to improvisation 4/ initiation to singing.

My primary objective is to allow my students to be comfortable with a score, but also to be comfortable without it. This will allow expressivity and the development of their sensitivity, their creativity, their musicality.
Music delights us, makes us happy, liberates us, soothes us, calms us...
Its learning requires a minimum of rigor, a rigor which should not frighten you! 15 minutes a day can be enough to see progress over the days. That's not much to start with, is it?

I am at your disposal for all your questions. Looking forward to meeting and working together.

Yours truly.
Faustina

Experience / Qualifications

I have been giving private cello and music theory lessons for eight years. I also have pianistic background, I can perfectly accompany my students in any repertoire.
I have taken care of young children, adolescents and adults.
I met several profiles, the curious child/teenager/adult beginner wishing to take the plunge and discover the world of music, the child/teenager who was receiving instruction in a conservatory and who needed a support course to perfect their training, the adult beginner who has been keen to return to music for many years!

My experience within the school orchestra organization (OAE) was very important to me and had a profound impact on me on a human level. This involves teaching five or six children at the same time for an hour, twice a week. Then they meet up with other classmates, wind or string instruments or percussion, to play pieces arranged especially for them. This group lesson experience taught me to teach in a new way, another way of transmitting my knowledge.

I have already given piano lessons.

I have already given musical awareness sessions to children between a few months and 6 years old. With my cello, my voice, stories, in particular.

" UNIQUE "
What if telling your story with music could be fun and playful?

Don't waste hours going around in circles, constantly searching for videos on YouTube to learn in a simple and structured way.

To finally be able to express your feelings, your emotions, all through the guitar?

It's possible! And what we'll see through my lessons: you'll learn how to tune the instrument, practice its first chords, and quickly play your first songs.

Develop your ear and musical identity by exploring styles such as pop, rock, country, blues, jazz, bossa nova, funk just to name a few.

Discover and explore the richness of scales and modes to combine them with playing expressions like hammer-ons, pull-offs, legato, bends... Does that sound like Chinese to you? I understand. Through my lessons, all of this will no longer hold any secrets for you!

Whether you have no experience or a few weeks of practice under your belt, we will go step by step, taking into account your level, so that you progress at your own pace.

Without forgetting the most important thing: have fun!

Hello & Welcome!

My name is María, and I am a Venezuelan cellist and music educator living in Brussels. My musical path began within Venezuela’s world-renowned El Sistema, a program founded on the principle that making music together in orchestras and chamber ensembles shapes us into better human beings.

Whether you are picking up the cello for the very first time, preparing for competitive orchestral auditions, or looking for structured guidance for you, I am here to help you achieve your musical goals with joy and confidence.

What My Lessons Offer

All Levels & Ages: Tailored instruction for complete beginners, intermediate students, and advanced players (from early childhood to adult learners).

Comprehensive Learning: Integrated music theory, sight-reading, and posture coaching whenever helpful to enhance your practice and technique.

Orchestra Audition Preparation: Focused coaching on orchestral excerpts, stylistic precision, and audition mindset.

Teamwork for Young Learners: Active involvement and guidance for parents during lessons to build a supportive, encouraging practice routine at home.

Flexible Formats & Scheduling: In-person lessons at my studio or your home in Brussels, as well as online sessions via Zoom/Skype. Flexible scheduling adapted to your availability.

What would you like to achieve with the clarinet?

Maybe you’re starting from zero. Maybe you played years ago and want to come back to the instrument. Maybe you already play and want to improve your sound, technique or musical expression. Or perhaps you have a specific audition or conservatory goal.

Whatever your starting point, I’ll help you turn that goal into a clear and practical path forward.

With me, you can work on:

Building a confident, personal sound
Improving technique, breathing and articulation
Playing with better intonation, rhythm and control
Understanding and expressing the music rather than simply playing the notes
Becoming more confident when performing
Learning how to practise efficiently and independently
Preparing specific repertoire, auditions or conservatory exams

I want lessons to be productive, but also enjoyable. You should leave each lesson knowing what you improved, what you are working towards, and how to practise it.

Whether you want to discover the clarinet, develop your playing seriously, or take your music to the next level, choose a time that suits you and let’s start working towards your goals.

Graduated in cello in Barcelona, finishing my master in historical cello at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. Passionate cellist with a lot of experience in performance and education. I specialize in historically informed music, so I try to understand the context around each music I play, so we enter into a dialogue between current events and the era in which the music was created. In my classes we will learn the basic technique of the cello but also we will look together for what we want to express with the music we make, and techniques more adapted to the era.

My course is based first on you.
I like developing with you a program adapted to your features, your difficulties as well as your goal.
It is aimed at everyone, children and adults, complete beginners and more experienced musicians looking for advice, a method to keep developing I've been approaching and searching.

Autonomy, creativity, curiosity and listening are the main 4 words for me!

I can teach you drums in many styles (rock, funk, jazz, shuffle, pop, linear, world music, songs on demand) and in its many forms AND of course music theory, which can be integrated into the course if necessary, but also be the subject of a private lesson for students who wish support for their courses in an academy or at the Conservatory. This will help you to read music scores and nail sight reading over time!

Lessons for modern or historical, with program and repertoire, adapted to the goals and speed of each student, whether young, not so young, or adult, for a general introduction to these instruments, for preparation for high music education, as a supplementary aid for exams in music academies, or for a hobby, or for amateur group music-making, or for developing qualities as concentration, discipline, expressibility, awareness of styles and music history.
In my teaching, I rely mostly on old traditional methods, books, and repertoire, which have proved their efficiency over the time. I also make use of the old teaching tradition of improvisation. This not only adds a creative element soon after very beginning, but also teaches via practice the basics of harmony.
Lessons can be combined (+30min.) with theory/solfege (ear training), if the student wishes.
English, Nederlands, française, Deutsch.
I have been teaching for about 20 years, privately, in Brussels, and in New York in the past, more than 100 students.
I am a graduate of Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel, in baroque cello and harpsichord, but I play also modern cello, organ, and piano.

Have you always wanted to learn guitar, whether classical, electric, or even flamenco, but the esotericism of music theory has always put you off? You've come to the right place!
My name is John, I'm 22 years old, and I'm in my second year of a Bachelor's degree in Animation at Erg. During my nine years of guitar studies at the Uccle Academy, I won the Nicolas Prize and was a finalist in the 2020 Brussels BigFest. I've always loved teaching, and I would be delighted to help you or your child learn guitar. This lesson is suitable for both beginners and intermediate players!
