Guitar lessons for beginner and intermediate players in Brussels

From 37.51 £ /h

My name is Francisco, I am an Argentinian guitarist currently living in Brussels. I am finishing my studies at the conservatory (KCB), but I have been playing for most of my life and teaching privately and in music academics for a few years already.
Although my main focus musically is in jazz and improvisation in general, I am also into funk, blues, rock, pop, indie and folk.

I would define my teaching style as flexible, in the sense that I believe in building a programme together with each of my students, in the which his or her specific musical interests are covered and the same time, diving into and developing the areas which I consider fundamental, regardless of the musical style or genre: rhythm and time feel, sound, technique, posture and fretboard knowledge.

Some of the topics that we will cover:

Repertoire (learning songs)
Triads and scales
Chords
Metronome exercises
Picking
Left and right hand coordination

And more!

About Me

Hi there! My name is Francisco. I am a guitar player from Argentina and I relocated in the Netherlands in 2021. I moved here to continue exploring and to expand my musical knowledge and experience at Maastricht Conservatorium. As from September, I am offering lessons in Brussels were I relocated to study under the guidance of Nelson Veras, one of the most important guitarists out there!
I have been studying and playing guitar since the age of 14. I've had many different bands and projects with the which I recorded and gigged a lot. One of my dearest groups is Chenopodium Quinoa Wild, which I formed with 3 of my closest friends in a little beach town in Ecuador (you can check the music in spotify).

Although my main focus for the last few years has been playing jazz, I enjoy to play all kinds of music. Rock, pop, blues, funk, etc

My aim is to provide a personalized learning experience to all of my students.

Also, I not only teach, but also play with different groups, compose and record.

Hi, my name is Francisco. I am an argentinian guitar player currently located in Maastricht, Netherlands.
I have been playing and studying music for many years and Im also actively performing and recording for my own or other people's projects. I have been teaching for more than 8 years now and I have experience working together with begginer, intermediate and more advanced students. At the moment, I am narrowing my lessons for people who already know the basics and want to expand on their knowledge.

Some of the things we will be working on are:

Triads, Scales, Voicings, Time Feel, Rhythm, Repertoire, Tools for playing in a band, Comping, and more.

No need for music theory, just the desire to learn will suffice ... I will learn with pleasure and passion for beginners or intermediaries how to play their favorite songs. And no matter what age, it's never too late to start! You will also have a real framework that will allow you to grow as you want and at your own pace.

If you tried to sing, but you have problems with the technics. If you have strugles find your own voice.
If you want to learn light music, jazz, maybe the folk music of the county of Béla Bartók (Hungary), and you havent find a teacher.
If you want an experience of a new perspective, I am your teacher.
About me: I am Csilla from Hungary, coming to Brussels to play music. I have a National Certification Register as a jazz-musician from Hungary. I have studied with many wonderful diferent teachers, and saw diferent methods. I think there is more than one way to go with vocals, and teaching vocals, but the basics are the same.
Many students has strugles to open up to theyr teachers, and many has with understanding the explanation of the techics. I think a good teacher just show the students the ways they can choose, and do not decide it for them, but giving a strong basic knowledge at the same time, and keep open minded.

I graduated from the Conservatoire de Nice CNRR (France) in jazz guitar.
I studied there for seven years with renowned professors such as Jean Paul Ceccarelli (Sting), Pierre Bertrand, Robert Persi or Philippe Petit.
My teaching method is flexible and I adapt it to the needs and desires of the student.
We will discuss the technical work on the instrument, the knowledge of the neck and chords and the rhythm. With or without solfege.
The goal is to provide the student with the necessary tools so that he can continue learning by himself at home.

Guitar lessons in Brussels. Playing guitar is not only fun, but it's also good for you. Put down that game controller for an hour a day, because playing guitar is a great way to exercise your brain. Did you know that studies show that playing a musical instrument both improves memory and activates creative thinking in the player's brain?

Amplification and connection cables provided during lessons at the teacher's home. Students only need to bring their guitar and a desire to learn.

Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano but don't know where to start? Do you already have a musical background and want to refine your piano skills or music theory knowledge? Or are you an advanced player who wants to delve deeper? I offer piano and music theory lessons.

In my piano lessons, I work with each student to discover their musical personality. Depending on their preferences, the emphasis is on jazz and improvisation or on classical music, supplemented with the necessary music theory. I always try to accommodate the tempo and needs of each individual student. Enjoyment is paramount. I teach all ages.

The music lessons I offer are designed to be a space for discovery and personal growth, free from academic pressure. Whether you're learning your favorite pieces or deepening your technical understanding of your instrument, together we'll explore your needs and desires. Each lesson is tailored to the individual student (if you're learning an instrument and also want to sing, I'd be delighted). Creativity is equally important; improvisation (through the study of jazz) and composition (of music and lyrics) are more than welcome, if desired.
