About Me

"Music is what feelings sound like." Unknown Author

Music, that´s what I live. But not as extravagant artist as we know from films, but as a person who loves to share. Who loves to share all imaginable emotions and achieved information and also who likes to open door to wonderful world of art, to joy from melodies and right vibrations, to the thirst to learn about composers, history...

For several years already I am working with students of different ages and nationalities here in Belgium, where I received my Master in Music degree (Brussels Royal Conservatory). In past I had been studying in Ostrava, CZ, and in Bratislava, SK, where I also received my teaching diploma. Besides practice during secondary school and university studies with pleasure I had been teaching cello in Basic Music School in Vratimov, CZ, and cello and music theory in Frýdek-Místek, CZ.

I work on private basis with children (from four years old) and youths and adults, teaching them cello, piano, singing, solfége, music theory and history, in English, French and Czech languages. Aditionally I teach at European School in Ixelles as a music teacher and nursery assistant teacher.

Enjoying playful and open nature of children I´m able to find easy way how to work with each of them individually but also help them to adapt in community. I can offer my skills of organised and flexible teacher and musician with social and kind personality open to new goals and challenges.

Being highly skilled in sight-reading, I have often realized how valuable and enjoyable it is to possess that “gift.” After more than ten years of teaching students of different levels and aspirations, I have observed a common thread: regardless of their goals, all were eager to improve their ability to read and interpret new, unfamiliar music.

Currently, I am developing a multifaceted approach designed to help students understand a composition at first sight. This method combines specific pattern recognition and structural score-mapping, anchored in a fundamental understanding of rhythm, pitch, and harmony, together with highly effective practice and memorization strategies personalized to each student's needs and technical challenges.

For over ten years, I have been teaching students of all ages and levels. In addition to regular lessons, I offer the opportunities to perform at the yearly class concert as well as dedicated preparation for ABRSM piano examinations.

I'm a pianist with extensive performing experience on international stages and a first-prize winner of more than 30 international piano competitions across Europe and USA. I hold a Master's degree and four Postgraduate degrees (piano and chamber music) from the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.

Experience has taught me that it is very important to build a warm, trusting relationship with students, especially the very young ones. Bringing laughter, a sense of humour, games, and creating imaginative stories with music are my motives throughout the lesson.

The goals and character of each student guides the teaching approach I adopt - some students enjoy learning for the joy of music, whilst others prefer to aim for recognised qualifications or grades. In both cases I aim to make learning enjoyable.

I always encourage all my students, of whatever age or ability, to do some simple improvisation, and have developed several ways to facilitate this. I emphasise developing technique and music theory as they make the foundation of becoming a good musician throughout life.

ENG| I finished my master's degree in classical cello performance at IMEP, Namur with prof. Joachim. I have played in numerous orchestras and chamber music ensembles in Belgium and Greece. I have had masterclasses with important cello teachers. I have 2 years of experience teaching cello. I have a “Certificate of Teaching Competence” which I received after completing 6 other subjects during my Bachelor in Greece. I also followed 6 years of private piano lessons and an intermediate level diploma. I would really like to help you discover the world of music.

As a cellist who has received very structured education , I can help you build your technique and at the same time your musicality. As each student is different, the course is adapted to their desires and needs. At the same time we can develop our ears with music theory and solfege. Also I am open to work other types of music than classical.

Today, a multidisciplinary artist with a passion for teaching, I entered the Conservatory of Music very early on to learn piano and music theory: at the age of 6.

For a little over a year, I have been teaching children between the ages of 4 and 6. My lessons are presented as a fun musical awakening:
- know how to stand in front of a piano,
- hand positioning, fingering,
- learning rhythm and scales,
- note recognition,
- musical discovery and listening.

However, I propose to accompany any beginner, whatever their age (child, teenager, adult). I mainly travel to homes, my Casio piano keyboard on my back, to offer those who do not yet have one the opportunity to try and tame the instrument.

What do I offer?
- Lessons for all levels and ages, tailored to your musical goals (one lesson lasts 1 hour)
- If desired: feedback & support during the week via WhatsApp (for free)

Method:
I don't use a specific method, but I like to work very specifically on all aspects of piano playing. We'll alternate between skills training and purely musical lessons, where you can apply the acquired skills or techniques to your pieces. This frees up more focus for the most important thing: making beautiful music.

The main objective is to strengthen piano mastery within a context of instruction and musical performance, ensuring consistent progression tailored to each student's level.

Piano lessons for all ages and levels given by a pianist graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp, also holding a teaching degree. Classically trained, but I've always continued exploring jazz, folk, and other styles. I have a broad musical interest and love passing that on to my students. For the past five years, I've been teaching in the DKO (part-time art education) education system (at the academies of Mortsel and Ma'Go Antwerp), working with both beginners and advanced students. All ages, levels, and musical styles are welcome in my lessons!
