Hello,
I am a violin teacher and violinist. Having taught the violin for 20 years and knowing in depth different instrumental techniques and different teaching methods, I can adapt my teaching to the needs, age and character of each student. In addition, my educational background combined with the unique experience and knowledge given to me by my relatively recent motherhood and my love for children and other human beings, has led me to pursue positive teaching with empathy towards the student who aims to make him happy, to love music and to acquire a solid basis for his overall development! I am also able to teach with the Suzuki method. I teach children from the age of 3 and even adults. I organize concerts for my students at least twice a year. Classes are in French, English and Greek. For more information do not hesitate to write me. Thank you.

I am a professional violinist with more than 15years of teaching experience and I am a memeber of the orchestra of Opera Royal de Wallonie-Liège. I graduated with distinction at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels (Master) and I hold a Bachelor Diploma from Codarts (Rotterdam).
I also pursued a masters degree in Music Education at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels.

I teach students of all ages and levels.
I have fifteen years of teaching experience in the Netherlands and in Belgium ( privately and at music schools/muziekacademies).

Music is my passion and I love sharing this passion with my students.
In my lessons I help the student to find a good contact with the instrument and cultivate a positive relationship with music by integrating the development of aural skills, sense of rhythm and an optimal body use, enabling them to connect with their musical imagination.
The lessons are adapted to each student's needs and wishes.

Singing is much more than producing beautiful sounds — it is a way of discovering yourself, expressing emotions, and connecting more deeply with your own personality and inner world. Finding your voice can be a powerful and liberating experience, and my goal is to guide students through that process in a supportive, open, and encouraging atmosphere.

As a classically trained countertenor and conservatory student, I teach the fundamentals of healthy vocal technique while helping students develop confidence, musicality, and freedom in their voice. We work on breathing, posture, resonance, vocal placement, articulation, and expression, always adapted to your individual voice and level of experience.

Whether you are a complete beginner or already have some singing experience, lessons are tailored to your personal goals and interests. I believe every voice is unique, and that singing lessons should not only help you improve technically, but also help you discover new aspects of yourself through music and self-expression.

My teaching style is positive, patient, and flexible. I want students to feel comfortable experimenting, making mistakes, and gradually opening up their voice without fear or pressure. Above all, singing should remain something joyful, inspiring, and deeply human.

Are you a beginner?? No worries: no experience is required! 😁
I can teach you the basics to produce sounds with your saxophone: position of the embouchure (teeth, tongue, lips and vocal cords' position, an element often forgotten), fingerings, use of diafragma,...
After the first two lessons spent on the mouthpiece and neck for the sound production, we will immediately start to play some super easy duos together to practice your capacity of listening, pay attention to the other, ear training as well. I normally use the book of Peter Wastall (titled Learn as you play) as support, but it is not mandatory. There are plenty of good books btw!

Are you an intermediate / advanced student?? I am sure you can still improve in all the basics, but on a different level. I'll teach you the importance of the "voicing" (technique named by the american saxophonist and pedagogue Donald Sinta) to improve your sound production and projection as well as the capacity of correcting and improving the intonation. You can learn all about phrasing and music interpretation, from tonal music until contemporary atonal compositions. And still, you can improve your playing together, practicing in duo on different aspects like tuning, balance, interpretation, performance etc.

Book a lesson and try! If you are not happy, give me a feedback and go on. If you are happy, I will be happy to help you becoming a good musician!

My name is Juliette, a young professional violinist who obtained my master's degree at the Brussels Conservatory in 2018 in the class of Shirly Laub. With my experience, I offer violin and music theory lessons. I have been teaching the violin for 10 years, while continuing my activity as a substitute at the National Orchestra of Belgium and at the Brussels Philharmonic.
I adapt my lessons to each student, by offering courses focused on technique or more free, according to each person's expectations. My adaptability extends to all levels and all ages!

This class is aimed for children between the ages of 8-13 who would like to begin developing their vocal technique and find their own unique voice early whilst working in a group scenario. My Group Singing workshop is a mixture of improvisation and technique. Add to that the fun singing with other like-children and you’re looking at a contender for the highlight of your week!

This class is designed to build confidence and promote individual personal and social development and is taught in a fun yet disciplined way. With a minimum of 4 students and a maximum of 6 students per class each student will have the opportunity to perform a solo song and also a group song each week with individual feed back and technique advice each week.

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!

These courses are primarily aimed at beginners or false beginners wishing to learn the violin on a solid foundation, in a progressive and motivating way.

Trained in classical and chamber music by a conservatory professor, I have developed an approach to the violin that is both rigorous and accessible, always keeping the pleasure of playing as the objective.

We work on the essential fundamentals: posture, bow hold, intonation, tone, and basic musicality. Emphasis is placed on a clear progression adapted to each student.

Each lesson is personalized according to your pace and objectives, whether it's to discover the instrument, consolidate the basics or evolve towards a more expressive style of playing.

Courses are available in French or English.

- The Suzuki method is fun and practical for beginners

- We'll work on technique (position, scales, a little music theory) and musicality (I'm open to any musical suggestions): as a composer myself, I don't hesitate to play or improvise accompaniments with my students for a more collaborative experience.

- I can teach violin and viola, having studied both

- My courses are aimed at beginners, false beginners, and intermediate level students (2nd cycle of conservatory)
