About Me
My name is Jannes. I was born and raised in Flanders. I studied translation at the University of Antwerp and graduated with highest honors. I’m specialised in Russian and Dutch. After graduating I started my studies at the conservatory of Leuven, where I studied the violin. In addition, I’ve been playing the piano for about 15 years. Currently, I’m specialising in classical singing as a countertenor.Teaching is something that I reall enjoy. I guess it comes from my willingness to help people. I love to see people motivated and eager to learn and exchange knowledge and skills. I have worked as a language teacher for several private schools before and have given violin lessons in the past as well.
I’m very flexible in terms of what a learning process should look like, since everyone is different. Having mutual trust and being comfortable with each other is also very important to me.
