About Me

Music has been with me since I can remember. As a child it was mainly classical music, as a teenager it was musical, punk rock and visual kei from Japan. Today I find a variety of genres from all over the world exciting. At the moment it's mostly No Wave, Dark Wave and Dark Rock, but also C-Pop from China.
Since my music studies, I have also been interested in popular music research, especially in the field of metal music studies.

It is important to me that my students find their own authentic way of expressing themselves in their singing. When we sing we always tell a story. A well-fitting technique is a kind of tool case that contains a wide range of expressive options.

Rock/Pop Singing - From Basic Breathing Technique to The Interpretation of Your Favourite Songs

55.38 £ /h

Singing is your passion and you wanna build up your skill? You feel at home with genres within pop and/or rock music? Then I'm your teacher!

My classes will be designed to fit in with your current level, your preferences in terms of style and/or skill as well as your goals. Each class starts with a short warm up consisting of breathing exercises, a check of your body posture and singing exercises. Then we'll work on the songs you wanna sing. The technique I'm gonna teach you is based on speech level singing.

About me: I'm about to finish my music studies with a bachelor diploma in singing at Jam Music Lab Privat University for Jazz and Popular Music Vienna and I've been singing for over 10 years now. Last time I was live on stage was with the 80's tribute "Shake Me" at Simm City Wien and local Wien in 2020. Right now I'm arranging my own songs from my dark wave and dark rock influenced band project "Vampy Pop" to make them ready for recording in the studio.

The following class is dedicated to helping students to keep up with the rigorous demands of the IB program.

Having obtained 44 points in this program myself, I attempt to pass on my knowledge and motivate students to fulfil their full potential.

These classes are focused on both content revision, which is structured according to the official IB Syllabus to ensure that we cover all revision points - this is key to making sure that you are not at all surprised by the questions on your IB Exams! I also have full list of past IB Exam questions to help you develop strong exam-taking skills, and familiarise you more with the types of questions you will receive in your exams.

The IB is a very specific and unique program. Oftentimes, tutors provide you with information about the subject in general, rather than an IB-focused look into the particular subject. Given my successful experience and knowledge of the IB, this is something that I am happy to offer my students.

Hello and welcome to my music studio! It is absolutely fabulous that you are interested in music, and I hope you have lots and lots of fun with it! However, diving into the wonders of the piano/keyboard can be a bit overwhelming... and that is where I come in!
This course is for anyone from complete beginners to advanced students, from lessons that focus completely on classical music to lessons that include or focus on the basics of jazz/pop. If you like to sing, we can also work on the basics of jazz/pop vocal, so you can learn to accompany yourself at the piano.
In our lessons, technique will be an inherent part of the training, as well as analysis, basic music theory, and efficient ways of practicing music. If that all sounds good to you, then please reach out to me and we can start ASAP!
Lessons can be in English or Dutch.

So who am I?
In a nutshell, I am a professional pianist, vocalist, lyricist and blogger. Since 2014, I have taught in various music schools, teaching piano, ensemble, jazz vocal, and solfege.
On a more elaborate note, I obtained my Master of Arts in classical piano, summa cum laude, at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent (KASK) in 2017, and studied as a Fulbrighter at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington USA during the 2019-2020 academic year.
Every day, I strive to become a better musician and person, and I aim to transfer that passion to my students.

Drumset lessons for beginner or intermediate players focusing on technique, rhythms, groove and breaks. Students will learn to improvise and learn how to structure songs, as well as the basis of music theory.

From a very young age I had a passion for rhythm, so naturally, percussion was my choice. I've been studying percussion and music theory for over 15 years now, and I would like to share my knowledge with whoever shares this passion.

Hello, my name is Pia and I'm a flautist. :) I started learning the flute at the age of 8. I loved it right away, so after music school, I continued my studies at the conservatory in Maribor (Slovenia). I then studied at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz. In 2024, I completed my bachelor's degree at the Gustav Mahler Private University in Klagenfurt. There, I earned a degree in concert performance and a degree in instrumental pedagogy.
During my studies, I also completed a specialization course in early music, majoring in transverse flute. Therefore, I also offer lessons for beginners on this beautiful baroque instrument.
During my studies, I had several private students with whom I explored the sounds of the flute and various genres (classical, pop, jazz, folk music, improvisation, etc.). My lessons are relaxed and communicative, full of collaborative music-making.
Classes can also take place online.

Beginners are just as welcome as those who want to deepen their knowledge or start playing the flute again after some time! :)
