Beats, Rhythms, and Fun: Discover Your Passion for Drumming with Expert Instruction

Are you ready to unleash your inner rock star? If you've ever wanted to learn how to play the drums, now is the time! Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced musician looking to improve your skills, I'm here to help you achieve your goals.

In my drum lessons, we'll start by laying down the foundation of drumming techniques, including proper posture, grip, and rhythm. We'll then move on to learning various drumming styles, such as rock, pop, funk, and more. I'll help you develop your sense of timing, coordination, and dynamics, as well as how to read sheet music and play along with songs.

One of the things that makes my drum lessons unique is that I tailor the curriculum to fit your individual needs and interests. Whether you want to focus on a particular genre of music or develop a specific skill, I'll create a customized lesson plan to help you reach your goals.

Above all, my drum lessons are designed to be fun, engaging, and inspiring. I believe that learning music should be a joyful and fulfilling experience, and I'm passionate about sharing my love of drumming with students of all ages and levels. So what are you waiting for? Let's start drumming!

Songwriting, Recording, Mixing and Music Theory: Express yourself through your music.
Whether you are starting to create your own beats or struggling to write a song, I will help you reach the next level you personally need. With a solid base of music education, I can help you express yourself through your music. I can get very technical if you need to, but I will also help you navigate the creative process and arrive to a place that works for you.

Nina
Private lesson cello and / or solfège NL - FR - ENG region Ghent
Tailor-made cello lessons for all ages and levels! Currently via webcam I studied at the conservatories of Antwerp and Ghent and obtained my master's degree as a performing musician and my diploma in specific teacher training. In addition to experience as a performing musician, I am also active as a teacher of solfège and cello. I have experience as a teacher with children and adults. Would you like to learn to play the cello? Or would you like to improve your technique? Be sure to send me a message and we will make a schedule based on your wishes, agenda and interests! Being able to read notes is not a must, we can also tackle this during the lessons. Solfège and music theory lessons are also possible!

Sam
Guitar lessons and/or music theory Ghent and surroundings. Flexible teacher, available outside class hours for questions/examples/extra exercises.
Whether you are just starting out with guitar or have been playing for a while, I can work with you to find a suitable formula. All my lessons are adapted to the individual needs of my students and can take place in my living room at home or at yours. We choose together what we work on. Being able to read notes is certainly not a requirement. If you have any questions or problems after the lesson, or perhaps you quickly get through the exercises I gave, I am also available for further explanation with possibly a video and/or extra exercises. I started teaching guitar and music theory as a freelancer in 2019 and it continues to give me great satisfaction to see my students forge their own path as musicians. I wouldn't trade this for a job in the world. I myself have a jazz education but have always played a wide range of genres. Nowadays you hear me playing mostly progressive rock and metal. Please do not hesitate to ask your questions and I will answer them as soon as possible. See you soon! Sam

Marcos
Do you want to improve or learn to play the clarinet? This is your moment, contact me!
Hello! My name is Marcos, I am a clarinetist and I live in Brussels. I offer private lessons in person (they can be at your place or mine) or online. I have experience as a teacher for the last few years with children, adults, individual and group classes. Professional or amateur level. In my lessons, I help students find a good contact with the instrument and cultivate a positive relationship with music by integrating the development of auditory skills, a sense of rhythm and optimal use of the body, allowing them to connect with their musical imagination. Lessons are tailored to the needs and desires of each student. The most important thing is that we have a good time!

Method of Independence for The Modern Marimaplayer
I want the marimba student to become aware of the different sounds that a marimba can produce, based on those sounds I want to improve his technique and teach him to phrase. All this from relaxation. We also look at the different techniques that are possible on the marimba and find which one suits you best. I teach both beginners and advanced students.

Instrument lesson Brass / percussion / in-depth solfège
Dear future student! I can teach at home but also provide a location around the regions (Antwerp, Hasselt, Ghent or Leuven). Provided I have already completed my master's diploma tuba (euphonium) and master percussion and also follow a master trombone, I can teach different instruments. During the lessons there is the choice to implement solfège or to keep the lessons only instrument technical. I work very constructively and I like to listen to the wishes / goals of the student. In the lessons I work very specifically on the wishes and goals of the student. This can be a very classical training but also contain modern pop songs. Feel free to contact me for some additional information! Many greetings, Sam

Silvia
Comprehensive Violin and Music Theory lessons for all ages
Hello, my name is Silvia! I am an Italian student of Violin, currently attending the Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice at KASK & Conservatorium in Gent. I already have experience in teaching music and violin to children, teenagers and young adults. In those occasions, I discovered how much transmitting my love for music to other people - children, teenagers, adults, any age! - is one of my highest goals within my musical career. I am aware that each student deserves a personal teaching approach, shaped on his/her own nature and attitude. I will help students strengthen and consolidate their technical skills on the instrument, but we will also have a lot of fun in playing music! My education: - Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice course, at KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. Ongoing (2022-2023). - Master Degree of Music in Performing Arts - Violin, issued by KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. 2020-2022. - Diploma in Violin (10-year course, old academic system) at the Conservatory of Music “G.P. da Palestrina” in Cagliari, Italy. 2009-2020.

Pop, rock, jazz or other styles. I myself am mainly active as a rock drummer. I have been drumming for eighteen years and play/have played in a drum band, a youth orchestra, a big band, a rock band, a folk band and in cover bands. I have a secondary school teacher's diploma for the subjects English, biology and music. In this training I learned the necessary didactic principles to teach well.

Eva
Piano lessons or music lessons adapted to your level and interests
Customized lessons: Teaching beginning children, beginning adults, or experienced students are completely different experiences that require completely different methods. A constant focus in all cases is to ensure that students learn notation and music reading, which gives them some independence. As a first step, I create a plan together with the student, depending on his or her personal goals, and supplement this with musical pieces that I think will complement the learning path. Practical information: I am available for online classes from August and at home from September 15, but I will not close schedules until the beginning of October. If you have any questions or specific comments, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Irene
Piano lessons and music theory for kids and teenagers.
I am a pianist of more than 11 years of piano professional studies, in conservatorium Martin Tenllado, Spain. At the moment, I am preparing myself for the access exams of KASK in Gent. For over 1 year and a half I spent working with kids of all ages and i have expirience with music pedagogy and adapting the methods to the kid circustance and personality. I also give piano and music lessons for kids with no expirience with music. My native language is Spanish but I have a C1 level of english. Music theory is also really important for piano knowledge and I give customized excercises for the student. Learning a instrument, like piano, open your mind to a lot of perspectives, and for kids and teenagers, can help the development of their imagination, creativity and attention, and giving them the knoledge in a entertaining way, make the classes more interesting.
