I think of myself as social musician. I mostly like to play sharing music with others. My first priority goes to having an interesting/charming/ resonant full sound. Then i work on how to connect your ears to your instrument so that you can play as simple as possible in a way that you can hear it before you are getting to play it on saxophone. We can also work on repertoire based on taste in music of your choice. If we choose some music that you like before actually studying it, this is a strong motivation for the student to go for it ! I am mostly an alto and tenor player but i can teach to any other kind of saxophone like baritone, soprano etc. My sound , technique and lessons are mostly coming from jazz music(blues ,swing , mostly American music of 20s-60s) I assign homework after every lesson about the technique of the saxophone but also the possible tools of improvisation in music.

I strive for an environment that cultivates a culture of trust, mutual respect, promotion of diversity and equal opportunities. I believe that every student learns differently. That is why I practice a student-centered approach where my students are strongly encouraged to actively participate in their own learning process.

Learning English can be a challenge, but I believe that with the proper mindset, enjoyable activities and energetic lessons, anybody can improve! Through conversational games, interesting exercises based on real life situations and role plays, the tutoring lessons I give are beneficial and entertaining. I am a fluent English speaker, who grew up in Canada and I love tutoring English, as I have already tutored one primary school boy, a 16 year old girl and a 30-year-old woman. I look forward to meeting new students!

I am very good at problem solving. Therefore this class is about the individual student and giving them the support they need to improve and succeed. This will be less of a class and more of a personalised private tutor format whereby I will assist students with whatever current problems they face. It can range from teaching better essay writing skills or how to be a better public speaker. Depending on the needs of the student I will adjust my teaching accordingly. If the student needs assistance with a particular homework assignment I will help them through it. I aim to create a nurturing and comfortable environment for my students, I believe students have enough stress understanding all their current work and I do not want to pile on more. Therefore the class is not about giving homework and completing tasks as it is to create real and systemic improvement in the student and their confidence in the subject.

When I got my first guitar on my fifteenth birthday, the appointment was that I would also take lessons immediately to become proficient in it. So I took lessons with Cor, who lived a bit further down the street, and Cor played cowboy music. He saw my eagerness and led me to his supervisor. Songs singing and playing chords, that's what it was about. This process was repeated on my eighteenth with a classical guitar; as a gift, but also take lessons. Classical lesson at Janine, there I learned to play notes and therefore also of leaves! The guitar lessons take place after school on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. Other times are negotiable. I really like teaching; so my enthusiasm for the instrument has an outlet! Together we try to find out what makes you like that in guitar playing; that is what we are going to work with. Fingering, percussion and plucking techniques, playing notes and tablature, chords and melodies, songs and grooves, improvisation and performance; it is all covered!

Organic Chemistry is a difficult subject, but only if you make it so. In reality, if learned well it is actually a beautiful subject and relatively easy. I will help you from the very basics, you can learn these concepts or revise them if you already know them, and then grow from those basics to intermediate concepts and higher levels. The harsh truth is that organic chemistry relies on the memorization of reactions, structures, reagents, and rules which can make it quite daunting to study. But, with effective teaching methods and practice questions you will be able to conquer this subject. We will structure the classes according to your level and understanding, we can go slower or faster based on your schedule and I will assign homework for practice, but we will also solve questions together during the lesson. Hopefully, I will be able to help you appreciate this beautiful subject, if not then at least help you clear your exams :)

My experience with teaching began with the pedagogy course at the Prince Claus Conservatory in the Netherlands where I completed my master of music. Thanks to this curricular experience, I was able to come into contact with a world that has left me fascinated and with even more questions. I find the exchange of information and experiences created during a lesson stimulating and engaging. The needs of each student, noticing different personality types and thinking, provides me with the tools I need to become a better teacher. My goal is to create a serene and friendly environment while maintaining a challenging lesson structure to give my students the best quality and quantity of information.
