About Me

Spanish teacher with Bachelor in Piano, Bachelor in Voice and Masters in Opera.
I have more than 10 years of experience teaching all ages in private lessons and official schools. I have formation on Yamaha system for children.
My way of teaching involves, in addition of technical and interpretation skills, the relation between all kinds of arts and periods. I have also official studies in theatre and literature.
All piano classes, depending on the age and the interests of the students, are divided into technique, playing, improvisation, creative plays and some of basic composing knowledge.
Voice classes involve all genres of music and we work in technique and ways of interpretation. Theatre and character creation, posture... are also trained.
I can teach in English but also in Spanish, Catalan and Italian :).

PIANO

Foundation
First we start with the music theory, melody and chords. These are the essential building blocks for making music.

Style
Next we apply stylistic tools to bring the music to life. This could include jazz chords, blues riffs, walking bass lines, and more.

Skills

We learn the skills (soloing, ear training, accompaniment, improvisation, lead sheets, analysis...)

Following this approach, you will finally understand the music that you are playing, and you will be able to apply the techniques to hundreds of other songs.

CVT COACHING

Hi! I am Tine, a singer, voice teacher and vocal coach. I am passionate about helping singers to make the most of their singing practice so they can thrive, grow, and become the powerful performers and communicators the world needs today.

I can help you train your voice and keep it healthy, develop your own unique sound, sing across different styles, manage performance anxiety, be authentic on stage, deliver powerful presentations, make more efficient goals and help you reach them.

It is possible to create all the sounds from all the styles / genres in a healthy way!

CVT METHOD?

Singing is not that difficult and everybody can learn to sing. CVT divideds the singing techniques into four main subjects. By combining elements of these four subjects, you can produce precisely the sounds you want. You will also be able to pinpoint your specific problems and mistakes, and you can focus on which techniques you wish to work on.

The four main subjects are:

The three overall principles – to ensure healthy sound production
The four vocal modes – to choose the ‘gear’ you want to sing in.
Sound colours – to make the sound lighter or darker.
Effects – to achieve specific sound effects.

I have grown up in a fashion house and educated myself throughout years on design. I would like to take you to a self beauty journey and bring your true colours, textures and your natural beauty. As a brand manager I heavily work on branding and develop creative advertisements. I have an eye and 3 years of experience for tailor-made styles and designs with individuals in personalised style creations.

Depending on your life style whether you are a business woman, business man, a student, a teacher, a traveler, or a nomad... we will understand what your tastes are and how we could twist it and pop it up and make it appealing for the majority.

I have experience in natural beauty, home remedies, fitness and no-make up make up and I am willing to share my knowledge with you alongside of personal shopping experience.

We will find a style that fits you, that you like... and with affordable combinations (depending on your budget) we will recreate your wardrobe. We will make a new you, that is still you but much more confident! I will guide you throughout this process.

I look forward to hearing from you and partnering up in bringing a fresh look and feel to your lives.

At a certain moment in your life you can feel restless in one or more areas of life. Professional, financial, private or emotional. Life coaching is aimed at self-development. You learn to make choices and you are encouraged to achieve results and actually achieve your goals.
Know that the key to success lies with you!

It is no longer a secret that we are all extremely busy and think that we no longer have time for ourselves, for some free time. Perhaps you have made choices in the past that no longer make you happy and that you remain attached to. It is therefore all so easy to keep wandering in our familiar life while you realize that there must be more. As a result, we are not feeling well in our skin. We all recognize ourselves sometimes in the sense of 'lack'. Sometimes we don't even know what we want, what we dream of. We know that there is more for us, but we cannot see it.

Life coaching ensures that you gain insight into your life again. Together we look for those insights, the causes and that new path. We work with all the potential you have towards that perfect life. The insight that you can take control of your life and finally change things. It's okay to dream and go after it.

->Did you ever want to know how Paul Potts or Susan Boyle can sing like that?
->Do you sing in a choir and want to improve your vocal skills?
->Do you need a certain way to give your personality a voice, but don't know how?
->Do you need help to prepare yourself for music exams or want to study singing and need someone to prepare your piece with?

I offer singing lessons in GERMAN and ENGLISH and NEDERLANDS

The three pillars of my teaching philosophy:
1. Body awareness
2. Enjoy yourself and your voice
3. using the voice in the most healthy way!

I am a classically trained Voiceteacher from Germany and have sung as a concert soloist and in choirs for years and know what it means to come out of a rehearsal hoarse. We can prevent that.

I believe that everyone can sing and that everyone has musicality within them.

I'm excited to get to know you and your voice :)

Did you always want to have a great voice? Or do you know you have one, and want to get better at using it? Or do you just want to be able to sing songs at home and enjoy yourself? What ever you are looking for, as long as you want to find enjoyment in singing, I'm the teacher for you.

Genres: Pop, rock, jazz & blues, soul, singer/songwriter

I've been teaching music for a decade now, and I'm still as in love with it as when I started. I love to see my students grow. Together we look for what inspires you, what supports you technically, and find your path in learning how to sing. We'll work on breathing, tone, style, and the mental game that comes with being a confident singer and regular practice. I focus on giving you a positive learning experience; I'm going to empower you by teaching you step by step, so you know what your process is and you can reproduce it yourself at home or at a gig. If you're interested, we can also work on songwriting and/or accompanying yourself on an instrument.

You decide the tempo at which we work, you decide what and what style you want to work on, you decide whether you take classes of 30 or 60 minutes and how regularly you take them. You'll get exercises, sheet music and backing tracks to practice at home. You're allowed to record the class so you can remember everything and hear your progress. If you want to, we can even make a professional recording of you singing. Everything is possible, and everything we do will be in dialogue with each other. Wether you come every week, or every month, it's all up to you, as long as you put in the practice at home you'll make big leaps forward.

!! It is possible to work with me on extended vocal techniques like growl & distortion !!

No, we don't think that being able to sing is absolutely necessary for actors. Not every actor or actress has the ambition to appear in a musical and not every series or film features singing. Still, vocal coaching is a good idea... whether you want to learn to sing or not!

With your course fee you can participate in any of our courses whenever you want. This way you can not only learn to act, but also taste our courses in debate and presentation techniques (our TV course), communication, singing, improvisation, 'physical acting', lie detection, hypnosis, directing, or writing! Of course, the following applies: the more you follow 1 particular course, the faster you progress.

More info

Anyone who has ambitions as a singer or who wants to expand his or her skills to make it easier to land a role will soon end up taking singing lessons... but also those who have no intention of ever performing songs. can benefit greatly from vocal coaching.

You often have to be on set for a long time and then it is important to use your voice properly, so that it does not get tired and you can speak as powerfully after hours of recording as before. Finally, it is very useful to be able to put different effects on your voice. Just think of the raspy character of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings, the barking explanations of Samson, the full voice of Kabouter Plop or the grunted insults exchanged in The Chronicles of Sabrina. Judiciously used voice effects can not only add color to characters, they are sometimes essential or almost automatically arise from emotional moments. So being able to use them correctly and maintain control over them without damaging your vocal cords is essential.

What you learn

As is the case with almost all of our courses, we teach you techniques from different approaches. For our singing lessons, these are Speech Level Singing (SLS), Estill Voice Training (EVT) and Complete Vocal Technique (CVT).

Here are some things that will pass in review:

• The similarities and differences between the three major singing techniques
• Using support
• The larynx, lips, and other organs that help control voice production
• Add necessary twang
• Add air or not
• Different vocal modes (with CVT): neutral, curbing, overdrive and edge.
• Variety of voice effects including: creaking, distortion, grunting, rattling, screaming, vibrato and ornamentation
• For actors: relationship between voice color, effects and the playing of all kinds of characters
• For actors: the relationship between stem kle

Extras

• Help with the CV
• Assistance with admissions
• Help in choosing the right equipment
• Help with finding auditions
• Syllabus with pdf of the book Complete Vocal Technique

You can participate whenever you want!

I offer private singing lessons in Ghent with piano or guitar accompaniment. Knowledge of music theory isn't necessary; a desire to sing and work is all it takes! We'll focus on warming up, technique, and intention, but the joy of singing is always paramount. I can also teach you how to accompany yourself on guitar or piano while singing. Besides singing, we can also focus on songwriting, and I can guide you through the writing process and offer creative writing exercises.

For me, singing and writing music are the most rewarding things there is, and I'd love to help you discover your own voice. I have 13 years of experience as a professional singer (Sophia plays Leonard Cohen, Ansatz der Maschine, Little Dots) and 8 years of experience as a voice teacher. I also have extensive experience in music education with young children and organized music camps for children aged 4-9 for a while.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or would like to work together!

Hi!
I am Lies, a passionate musician who likes to pass on the tricks of the trade to children and young people.
In 2024 I graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Ghent for clarinet.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in taking lessons with me.

Hope to see you soon!

Do you dream of learning how to get the best out of your singing voice?
Do not hesitate and be welcome to get acquainted during a trial lesson without any obligation!
You don't need to have any experience or prior knowledge, just a healthy portion of enthusiasm is required! †

Once you've got the hang of it, we work on vocal technique, interpretation, polyphonic singing, accompanying yourself on the piano, stage presence,... all this adapted to your wishes and level.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

Singing lessons for students of all levels who want to gain a solid foundation in classical technique. We will work on breathing, diction, and releasing tension from the voice so that you can sing in the most enjoyable way for you. Lessons are tailored to the individual, and repertoire is flexible.

I'd love to help you on your way to take your singing techniques to a higher level. We'll get started with your favorite songs. By default, the focus is on breathing, sound placement and expanding vocal range. But we can deviate from this path to suit your specific desires.

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.

Are you a beginner singer, or do you want to further develop your voice and discover its full potential? Do you want to improve your vocal technique or work on your song interpretation for a specific song? Are you preparing for an audition or concert and looking for someone to help you because that one note just isn't coming out easily enough? Then I'd love to help!
I think it's important that we explore what you can do at your own level, in a familiar environment.
I will help you with techniques I learned during my Musical Theatre training, but also with my own experiences as a singer.

I am a Ukrainian singer and I have been singing and performing since I was 5 years old. I will guide you in the development of your voice and teach you the necessary techniques. We will do practical exercises to learn to control your voice but also work on how to convey emotion and expression. We will work on the songs that you like, the most important thing is that you have fun while developing your skills
