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.

Hey,
My name is Jasper and besides guitar lessons I also give private lessons in solfège!

For me it is important that you can develop your music knowledge in a motivating private lesson where the focus is on your interests.

In these lessons we can go through all the principles of music theory, from learning to read your first notes to chord theory to scales and beyond.
The lessons are for students of all ages and all levels.

I myself studied at the conservatory in Rotterdam and in Ghent and have been active as a professional musician for several years. I have 10 years of experience as a private teacher.

Lessons take place in Gentbrugge near the Keizerpark.
We can determine the exact time of the lesson together. All very flexible.

Does this seem like something for you?
Don't hesitate to send me a message.

Hope to see you soon!
Jasper

Learning how to play the piano is a goal you can reach only by frequent exercising.
Considering the fact that many pupils and grownups don't have much time to practise, my piano lessons are split in learning new information and also practising together.

Piano lessons are open to everyone who wants to learn to play the piano, improve their playing or have fun with music! I am a pianist with years of experience in piano teaching, having completed my master's degree at the Conservatory in Ghent. My lessons are adjusted to your specific needs. The main goal is that my students experience the joy and happiness of playing the piano and gain a deeper understanding of music.

Are you in love with the sound of the cello but have never dared to start playing it?
Have you been playing the cello as an amateur and now need an expert to guide you?
Do you want to develop and improve your cello and musical skills?
Do you need reinforcement lessons?
Would you like to prepare for entrance exams to the conservatory?
Would you love to join a youth orchestra and need help preparing for the auditions?
...
These are the private cello lessons you were looking for!

My name is Miriam, I am a graduate in Master of Classical Music at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent.
I've been teaching cello to children, teenagers and adults for 10 years, so I've acquired the necessary experience to be able to adapt to the different and personal needs and objectives of each student. My teaching methodology focuses on creating a friendly and relaxed environment (which does not mean undemanding!) in which students feel confident to express their own ideas and worries. In my lessons I focus on technical and postural questions, but we also reflect together on the music, as I like my students to develop their own musical ideas and not just imitate the teacher.

Contact me now to schedule your first lesson and take the first step toward your musical aspirations! :)

I have a masters degree in jazz piano. I can teach you any style of music you want to play. Even if you don't know what you want to play yet, I will help you find something that fits you perfectly!

For example, you can choose one of the following options (combinations are possible):

Chords to play pop songs
Jazz improvisation
Composing and arranging
Soundtracks from movies or animations
Music theory (harmonization)
Of course, you can also suggest your own interests if the above examples do not quite suit you.

About me:
I have been teaching piano for over 10 years in a music school and through private lessons. My students range from 5 year old children to 45 year old mothers. I have also guided students who wanted to take entrance exams for music schools (both high schools and conservatories).

Thanks to my extensive experience and broad musical skills, I am convinced that I am the best teacher for you, no matter what you are looking for!

I offer piano lessons in English, French or Italian for students of all ages and levels. Lessons focus on developing technique, musical understanding, listening skills, and artistic expression.

My teaching is grounded in the Faber Piano Adventures method and enriched with creative activities such as improvisation, four-hand duets, and simple composition exercises. Each lesson is adapted to your interests and pace, whether you are learning for personal enjoyment, creative exploration, or to support other musical practices.

For more advanced students, I also incorporate selected excerpts from Mikrokosmos by Béla Bartók, as well as pieces from the classical repertoire chosen in dialogue with the student.

As a conservatory-trained singer and composer with five years of teaching experience, I bring a dynamic, relational approach that connects instrumental technique with creativity and personal expression. Lessons take place in the student’s home in Ghent, Brussels, and nearby areas, and last 30, 45, or 60 minutes depending on age and level.

With more than 10 years of professional experience, I’m a musician and educator who believes that learning music should be both challenging and rewarding. Jazz is at the heart of my musical studies and practice, but working across pop, rock, psychedelic, electronic, and reggae has taught me to value the distinctive strengths of every genre. I bring that broad perspective to the projects I create and perform in, and to the way I teach while still focusing more in Jazz and Classical music.

I’ve worked with music schools and taught more than 200 private students, from children to seniors. My experience includes students with a wide range of abilities and learning needs, including autistic students and students with Down syndrome. These experiences have deepened my interest in teaching and strengthened my belief in balancing encouragement, empathy, and meaningful challenge.

Each lesson combines hands-on practice with musical theory, shaped around the student’s interests, goals, and musical taste. Depending on what you want to explore, lessons may include:

Music theory and technique
Ear training and performance
Composition and improvisation
Band or project guidance
Effective study methods and repertoire

My aim is to help students feel inspired by both music and the process of learning it. Together, we can build healthy study habits, strengthen creativity, and develop the confidence and discipline to learn independently. Lesson frequency, duration, and format are tailored to each student’s goals.

Whether you’re beginning your musical journey or looking to deepen your skills, lessons offer a supportive space to explore, grow, and make music that feels meaningful to you.

Sarshar (b. 1999) (Master's in classical music piano - composition) is a concert pianist and composer born in Tehran and educated at the conservatories of Budapest, Vienna, and Ghent. Known for his original compositions and distinctive interpretations of composers such as Chopin, Debussy, Beethoven, Liszt, and Bartók, he combines a strong classical foundation with a deeply personal musical voice.

He has studied classical piano with internationally renowned pianists and has performed across Europe, including concerts in Paris, Copenhagen, Spain, Poland, Hungary, Austria, and Belgium. His performances include appearances at the Polish Institute in Paris — where Chopin himself performed in the 19th century — and at the Antonin Palace in Poland, the UNESCO World Heritage site where Chopin gave concerts during his lifetime. He has also performed for the Belgian Royal Family, Queen Mathilde and King Philippe and collaborated with internationally acclaimed artists such as Alexander Vantournhout.

Sarshar is the laureate of multiple international piano competitions across Europe, China, and North America. Alongside his concert career, he composes music for film, theater, and dance productions, creating works that combine structural clarity with emotional depth and reflection.

As a teacher, he focuses not only on piano technique and musicality, but also on helping students develop their own artistic identity, confidence, and connection to music. He also integrates harmony into his piano teaching to help students better understand musical structure and build a deeper, more meaningful connection to the music they play. Lessons are available in English, Dutch, and Farsi for beginners, advanced students, and aspiring professionals..
I teach with different methods depending the person’s age, and personality.

First he gets to know what your goals and ambitions are, and based on your paste, knowledge and experience will build a personal traject where you can grow fast and optimal, while reaching your goals realistically.

Hey! I'm Robin, 29 years old, from Ghent, and a freelance musician.

I graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp in 2020 with a degree in jazz and light music guitar. I will also soon complete the educational Master's program in Music at KASK. I am active as a (freelance) musician and teach at several academies in Flanders.

In my teaching practice, I find it important to tailor music lessons to the student. The structure and content of a typical lesson therefore depend entirely on your interests and goals. I am experienced in teaching guitar within the classical, jazz, pop, and rock genres, as well as music theory within the jazz, pop, and rock genres. I adapt to any age or student profile.

I look forward to guiding you on your musical journey. Feel free to get in touch to discuss the details. See you soon!

My approach as your violin and/or viola guide might be a little different than you would expect. I want to invite you on a journey of playfulness and free improvisation guided by moments of joy. I don’t believe in right or wrong when it comes to sound as I am convinced that everyone has their own unique sound. In our lessons I want to help you discover how YOU sound, even before we start talking about notes and music pieces. When it comes to playing existing music, we will work with any music that you love, transcribed to your level. I find joy in creating a safe and transformative space for you to explore your creativity and develop a true passion for your instrument.
