Hello,

If you are passionate about music and want to learn to play the guitar, I'm here to help you! As an experienced guitarist, I offer private lessons for beginners.

On the program of my lessons, you will learn the techniques of rhythmic accompaniment, vocal accompaniment, and solo playing on Jazz grids. You will also be able to discover the styles of folk, pop and jazz music, and deepen your knowledge of music theory and classical basics if you are a beginner.

My lessons are personalized according to your needs and musical goals. I will adapt to your learning pace to help you progress in an efficient and pleasant way.

Whether you want to play for fun, to express yourself or to perform on stage, I will be there to guide you throughout your musical journey.

Looking forward to meeting you and sharing my passion for the guitar with you!

About Me
Music is my passion and I teach with the aim of helping you develop a deeper relationship with your instrument. For me, art is the expression of what we have inside of us. It can sometimes allow us to exteriorize our frustrations and our fears. Unfortunately, too often in schools, we are locked into a rigid curriculum that does not take into account the aspirations of each learner. For my part, I consider art as a means of expression and self-discovery. I am not looking for students with special talents, but if you have a thirst for learning, then it is with pleasure that I will feed you with my knowledge!

My music lessons are designed to be adapted to your needs and your level, whether you are a beginner or want to improve your skills. I will help you develop the technical skills needed to play the violin or the guitar, as well as your own musical style. Whether you are interested in the classical repertoire or want to venture into other styles such as jazz improvisation, I am here to accompany you on your musical journey.

Let your passion for music guide you and express yourself through the art of playing. I am convinced that learning music can also be a quest for oneself. So, if you're hungry to learn, I'll be happy to help you satisfy that urge!

Hello everyone,

Do you want to learn to play the violin or improve your skills? You are in the right place ! With my years of experience as a violin teacher in Belgium, France and New Zealand, I offer private lessons adapted to all levels.

I have been passionate about the violin since the age of 6. After graduating from the academy, I had the chance to study with Mr. Benderski, a talented Ukrainian teacher, to improve my skills. During the last 10 years, I have also played in various music groups, which has allowed me to develop a versatile approach to the instrument.

I love working with children and helping adults improve. My teaching method is based on understanding and listening to the needs of each student. I strive to create a positive and encouraging learning environment so that my students feel comfortable and progress at their own pace.

In addition to teaching classical repertoire, I am also proficient in jazz improvisation. I have played a lot of gypsy jazz on my travels, which has allowed me to develop skills in improvisation and jazz style. I am happy to share my passion and my knowledge in this field with my students.

Whether you are a beginner or want to improve, whether you want to play classical or venture into the world of jazz improvisation, I am here to accompany you on your musical journey.

Do not hesitate to contact me for more information on my violin lessons. I will be happy to help you achieve your musical goals!

See you soon,
