Playing the violin might sound difficult. Being honest, it can be sometimes tricky, especially if you don't find the method which fits you the best :).
I use Suzuki method for teaching the violin. Suzuki believes that everyone can learn music in the right environment.
It doesn't matter how old you are, or if you have any background in music or not, I will make a tailor-made program for you based on your needs and level. More important, I will make sure that you enjoy the learning process, and you are having fun!

In my 7 years of experience tutoring individuals ranging from 4 to 60 year olds, from budding composers with an interest in music theory, to those who want to learn to perform, I have become a versatile teacher. I take care to get to know you, your areas of interest and your learner type in order to construct methods and practice plans that will be both fun and challenging, allowing you to learn most effectively. My lessons will be whatever you want to make of them, however focused or broad you want your learning to be, I will ensure you develop the understanding and technique to achieve your goals. If you don't have any specific goals in mind that's all right too! Whether your continuing your journey or starting from zero, there is always a wealth of options when learning the piano.

Do you make music at home, but always wanted to record a song for fun?

If you are learning how to play it, I have the gear to help you create and record a song, so you can share it with your friends and family, or just have it for yourself.
I can play a lot of instruments and create tracks to accompany you. You can write a song or make a recording of you playing something you are working on. Depending on your level and experience with music, it would be a great way to learn some music theory too.

I am Julia, a professional musician originally from Montreal, Canada. I have lived in the Netherlands for 4 years and have a Master's degree in Music. I compose, engineer, and perform music. I also love to teach, I have experience with ages 9 to 90. I want to get the song in your head out into the air.

Hello there! I'm Lilian, and I'm here to share my love for the oboe with learners of all ages. Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, I've got your back.

I believe a good technique is fundamental and can make you enjoy playing music more, and together with that comes development of a person's musicality, I can help you develop both a good technique and a your musicality so that you can achieve a nice musical expression.

To stay organized and cover all the essentials, I like to split the lesson in parts, depending on your skill level of course. In a lesson of one hour we can cover theoretical music skills, breath work, reed exercises, etudes and technical exercises and pieces. We can also play duos together!
Because I have a lot of experience making reeds, I can make and adjust your reeds to your maximal comfort.

Life can get hectic, so I'm all about flexibility. We can find a time during the week that works for both of us, and we'll make sure our lessons fit seamlessly into your schedule. Reach out to me, and we can chat about how long you'd like our sessions to be and tailor a plan that suits you.

A tenured violinist at the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra of Liège and a graduate of the Geneva University of Music (Bachelor), the Amsterdam Conservatory (Master) and the IMEP in Namur (Master in Pedagogy), I have 10 years of teaching experience. I teach classes for all ages and levels (French or English), no musical knowledge is required and the repertoire can include any style of music. If necessary and in parallel with violin lessons, I can give music theory lessons. I travel to your home (Liège and surrounding areas) and I have a vehicle. Passionate about research on the well-being of the musician, I base my lessons on relaxation, good humor and the desires of the student in order to create a bond of trust and better progress. Breathing, awareness of the body and feelings, work on posture, development of sound and liberation of expression. I also offer personalized support for students preparing for exams or conservatory entrance exams. I take working with my students and sharing my passion for music with great seriousness and pleasure. Don't hesitate to contact me!

Individual lessons based on the needs of each student, using a mix of classic and innovative teaching methods.
Lessons are one hour, 45 minutes or 30 minutes each, but can be adapted as required.
Contact me to schedule a preliminary online meeting to get to know each other and plan a study programme!

My work experience allows me to structure lessons for children aged 5 and up and for people of all ages.

I have always adapted my academic and teaching skills to the needs and ambitions of each individual student, structuring the most suitable teaching methodology for each individual.

My courses can include:

- individual lessons and targeted programmes for all levels and ages;

- preparation for certification and admission examinations at conservatories, using specific methodologies and texts;

- lessons with a playful-recreational background aimed at introducing the youngest children to the knowledge and use of the instrument, through the use of games and colours!

Hello! I’m Eleni, a singer from Greece with nearly seven years of experience teaching music. Whether you're a beginner looking to build a strong foundation or more experienced wanting to refine your skills, all lessons are tailored to each student's needs and goals, with the aim of building confidence and authenticity in their singing and/or develop a strong foundation on musical knowledge.

For the singing lessons, we'll be covering breathing and vocal technique, interpretation along with expression and, depending on your goals, the approach we will have can be either focued on singing or holistic; including music theory, rhythmic skills and basic piano skills.

Lessons are available in various styles, so whatever your musical passion, we can bring it to life together!
And, having a background in jazz music, I can also help you develop your improvisation skills, giving you the freedom to explore and create your own sound!

Music theory, rhythmic lessons and basic piano skills are, of course, also offered as separate courses. So if you have no idea on how to read music or you are feeling clumsy when it comes to rhythm or piano, there's no problem! We can work on this together from scratch! :)

My lessons are offered to every age and level, in my experience as a private music school teacher I could teach to children and adults starting out and students preparing conservatory entrance exam.
My intent is to create a playful and flowing environment to reach the relax of body and mind during the lesson, the first things that you need when you approach the instrument.
The lessons are 1 hour long.
I don't speak Dutch so the lessons can be in English.
