I work with both adults and children.

I teach guitar lessons in English or Dutch.

Education

Ik ben Vadym, een muzikant uit Oekraïne, opgeleid als gitaarleraar en artiest in een jazzensemble.

Tussen 2009 en 2013 studeerde ik aan het muziekcollege in mijn geboorteplaats Cherson. In 2014 begon ik mijn solocarrière, bracht twee albums uit en trad met mijn band door heel Oekraïne op. In 2019 richtte ik het jazzcoverproject Moondance Cover Band op, dat al snel populair en succesvol werd. Ik was daar zanger, gitarist, leider en manager.

Experience / Qualifications

Ik geef les op zowel elektrische als akoestische gitaar en doe dit inmiddels al meer dan vijftien jaar.
Daarnaast speel ik meerdere instrumenten: basgitaar, toetsen en drums. Ik schrijf mijn eigen nummers, maak arrangementen en werk met muzieksoftware.

Sinds mijn vijftiende leeft muziek in alles wat ik doe. Ik speelde gitaar, zong, studeerde aan de muziekschool, componeerde eigen nummers, leerde arrangement en geluidsbewerking en trad op in coverbands.

Ukrainian language lessons from a native Ukrainian speaker

32 £ /h

Hello! I offer private Ukrainian lessons, online or at your home in the Amersfoort and Nijkerk area. Perhaps you're in a relationship with a Ukrainian and would like to speak Ukrainian with your partner? I'd be happy to help.
I offer both basic speaking skills and grammar. We can talk about culture or everyday topics necessary for communication.

I speak fluent English and have a fairly good command of Dutch, so I can explain and translate things well between these languages.

I base my lessons on developing a good technique. That will prevent many problems later. Musicality is based on this. The repertoire for horn is very large. Hoorn is used in symphony orchestras, harmony orchestras, fanfare orchestras, various ensembles and of course as a solo instrument. In addition to technology, I also emphasize playing different styles in various settings.

I am Alain, married and have two daughters and have lived in the Netherlands since 2017. Before this I lived in China for 15 years where I worked as a professional musician. I am originally from Mauritius where I also worked as a musician. I have years of experience teaching acoustic guitar and bass guitar to both children and adults.
Are you already advanced and do you want to improve yourself or have you never played and are you looking for someone who will teach you the basics first and then help you get better? Then you've come to the right place.
I can read music but prefer to play without sheet music to really feel the music and to express my own creativity in the music.

Obtaining the knowledge of drumming trough personalised ways and exciting energy.
You would be given a spectrum of knowledge - from basics to complicated stuff, from written out music to improvisation. We will cover technique and playing in different styles, but we will mainly work on firm control and give freedom to your own expression.
Listening to examples of music we try to imitate and learning about them is an important part, so we will spend time on that too.
I will also teach and provide you with reading material, meaning notes, organised in music pieces.

In class we will be working on vocal techniques, composition writing, chord progressions and structures and songwriting. You can bring your own songs to work on or we can work on covers. I have finished a master graduation at Berklee Conservatorium of Music in Contemporary Performance with a concentration in production so I can also help you with recording your music.

Learn to play bass to your favorite music. It's fun to do because you immediately feel what you're doing and that as a bassist you provide swing in the band. Are you already in a band? Then develop your own game to the Next Level. If you want to learn to think up your own bass parts, you've come to the right place.

I still have room for students aged 12 and older. Pop, jazz, latin and starting classical, electric or acoustic. Reading music or by ear, everything is allowed, everything is possible. Always wanted to play the guitar or just breathe new life into an old hobby, you are most welcome. The lessons are given in my studio in Overberg (Veenendaal).

My approach

Playing the guitar is fun for me. You don't need to be able to play well to get a lot of pleasure from the instrument. We are going to make the road to mastery as fun as possible. I like to chop well-known songs into bite-sized exercises, in order to get to the end goal. That's what my lessons are focused on, I want to show and hear in a structured and enthusiastic way that the guitar is a simple instrument with unprecedented possibilities. We are going to play right away and during this play all interesting things are discussed and explained where necessary.

Bring your own songs that you want to play or else I have more than enough famous or lesser known classics in my repertoire that we can start doing.

I hope to hear you!

Piano lessons for children and adults at your location. If you want to learn to play your favorite compositions or songs, you are more than welcome to take lessons with me. During my lessons you will learn to play both classical music and your favorite pop compositions. If desired, we will delve into music theory and the basic principles of jazz.
The training starts at the beginning and ends at the end result. I also give extra lessons to children and adults who are already following a music education.

I'll teach you the basics of playing the saxophone by exploring it as you play. I'll teach you how to read music and learn the corresponding fingerings. We'll also play songs, which can later be adapted to your own requests. We'll do this based on good methods that we'll go through together.

🗓️ FLEXIBLE RUSHING FOR THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR
My class schedule for the upcoming season is currently being finalized. Don't see your desired day or time immediately in the calendar? Feel free to contact me! In consultation, there are many possibilities regarding days and times (both during the day and in the evening).

During the lessons, a relaxed and natural posture and touch take center stage, as this is the foundation for a beautiful, full, and free sound. I pay close attention to varied touching technique, the use of the pedal, and expressive dynamic nuances. Furthermore, thanks to my musical upbringing, I am well-versed in the Kodály method, making the connection between singing and the inner ear with instrumental technique a very natural part of my teaching approach. Additionally, I enjoy teaching you how to accompany other instruments (such as voice or violin), so that you master the basics of chamber music and playing together. My goal is to help your musicality flourish in a patient and personal atmosphere – whether you are just starting out or wish to further deepen your technique. Feel free to contact me, and let's get started together!

Blues Guitar and Blues Piano Lessons

Delta Blues, Texas Blues, Piedmont Blues, West Coast Blues, Chicago Blues, Boogie Woogie, Barrelhouse, Jazz Blues

If you want to learn to play the blues or expand your knowledge, you've come to the right place. Lessons are taught in a relaxed yet serious setting. I have a greater affinity for traditional blues than blues rock. You don't necessarily need to be able to read music, either for guitar or piano. I can teach you (the basics of) sheet music on the piano and explain the tablature system for guitar. You certainly don't have to follow the music stave religiously; finding the right feel and trying to improvise are more important and central. Recognize and understand the blues patterns: 8 bars, 12 bars, 16 bars, ragtime blues, and all its variations.

A suitable schedule is made for each student personally.
I'll determine what works best for you as an individual and, in consultation with you, develop a lesson plan based on that. For example, you can choose the songs you want to play and the techniques you'd like to learn/improve. I also know which instructional materials are most suitable for you and can draw from a substantial blues library, available in book, audio, and video formats.

Acoustic Guitar Blues

Fingerstyle, Travis picking, monotone bass, playing a bass line and melody notes at the same time, hammer-ons, pull-offs, slides, double stops, heel damping, playing with a thumb pick and capo, mastering the country blues positions (C, D, E, G, A) and possibly alternative tunings (e.g. Vestapol and Drop D).

Learn to play in the style of Mississippi John Hurt, Blind Blake, Blind Boy Fuller, Charley Patton, Brownie McGhee, Robert Johnson, Mance Lipscomb, etc.

Electric Guitar Blues

Pentatonic scales, blues ladders, blues boxes, blues chords/rhythms/licks/trills/riffs/turnarounds, phrasing, call and response, bending, vibrato, timing, dynamics.

Learn to play in the style of BB King, Albert King, Freddie King, Otis Rush, T-Bone Walker, Peter Green, Eric Clapton, Michael Bloomfield and more.

Piano Blues

Left hand patterns (eight to the bar, shuffles, walking bass, ascending and descending), tremolos, rolls, grace notes, drone notes, intros and outros, breaks, crossovers, comping, arpeggios, octaves, intervals (thirds and sixths), blues chords (6, 7 and 9) and their inversions.

Learn to play in the style of Otis Spann, Memphis Slim, Big Maceo, Champion Jack Dupree, Pete Johnson, Albert Ammons, Dr. John, etc.
