About Me

People that know me can describe a calm, easy-going and focused person with a lot of patience and kindness!
Teaching music for me isn't about achieving greatness, like in a competition, but really discovering an activity that will keep you interested and entertained for the rest of your life.
Of course, if what you need is to really really become one of the best, I can also guide you through that road, but my philosophy is "becoming better for yourself and not for others".
I use a large variety of techniques in teaching and lots of material that I painstakingly gathered through the years.
And, I always enjoy playing and jamming with my students, there's nothing better than actually sharing and communicating the music we learn through actual music!

Education

I have one bachelor degree and I'm finishing my second one in HKU Utrechts Conservatorium with a major on Jazz guitar.
I attended lessons and workshops/seminars with Jonathan Kreisberg, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Julian Lage, Bill Frisell, Tim Langedijk, Philip Catherine, Panagiotis Andreou(bass), Ben Wendel and Shai Maestro.

Experience / Qualifications

I've been an active working musician since 2010 and I've been teaching guitar, oud and music technology and production since 2016.

The way I teach actually depends entirely on the student. The way I explain the concepts, plan and structure the lessons and approach each subject all depends on whether the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced, and whether he or she has some experience on the subject.

Each student has different needs and different abilities. It's just a matter of getting to know the student, in order to identify both the weaknesses and strengths on which to work.

Learn to enjoy music together while playing cello with me!

- I help to prepare for music/cello exams towards Music Academies as well as I assist students with practicing.

- I work with beginners, helping them with the basics of cello techinque together with basic music theory

- One of my methods while teaching is to play together with a student as much as possible to teach them the art of chamber music but also good communication skills while practicing together.

- I combine different methods depending on the student's needs (and technical level)

- as a professional cellist with an educational studies background I implement different psychological ideas including observational learning, ideas of Piaget and Vygotsky, and others

- I use the background in Feldenkrais technique lessons in my own teaching

Hi, I'm Heewon from South Korea. I'm a graduate of the HKU Conservatory's Jazz & Pop department, majoring in jazz piano, though alongside that, I've continued studying classical piano, as well as composition and arranging.

For over 6 years, I've taught students ranging from young children (6 to 7 years old) to adults in their 50s and beyond, covering genres from jazz and pop to classical and new age, along with music theory. I've also performed extensively in both South Korea and the Netherlands, at festivals, jazz bars, and government related events, playing not only jazz standards but my own arrangements and original compositions.

I believe music is something we simply can't live without today. It surrounds us everywhere we go, woven into daily life. That's exactly why piano makes such a wonderful hobby: it's approachable, deeply rewarding, and a great way to relieve stress. How amazing is it to be able to play the music that lives in your head?

My lessons are open to all skill levels and are held in English or basic Dutch. Before we begin, I always start with a consultation to understand what you want out of piano, your goals, interests, and preferred style, and build lessons and materials around that.

Tailor made lessons suited to your level and goals:
- For beginners, we'll cover basic piano technique, fundamental music theory, and sheet music reading.
- For intermediate and advanced students, lessons are shaped around your specific needs and wishes (for example improvisation, accompaniment, arranging, and more).

All learning materials and documents are prepared by me.

Hi! I am a classically trained pianist and am graduating from the Utrecht Conservatory this year. My passion for the piano started at a young age: I started taking lessons when I was seven, after convincing my parents to enroll me.

From the age of thirteen, I started assisting my teacher and was already teaching younger students, from children as young as 3 to teenagers. As a result, I have built up extensive experience in teaching various ages and levels.

As a teacher, I am enthusiastic, patient, and have a positive attitude. My lessons are structured, but also fun and motivating, so that students can develop at their own pace while simultaneously enjoying playing.

I offer piano lessons for beginners and intermediate students in a friendly and supportive environment. I studied at the Conservatory of Bologna in Italy, where I focused on classical piano, music theory, rhythm, ear training, chamber music, and solo performance. I have a special passion for Baroque and Classical music, but I am happy to adapt the lessons to each student’s interests and goals. In my lessons, we can work on piano technique, reading music, interpretation, rhythm, ear training, and basic music theory.
