Violin and viola lessons by a certified violinist, all ages and levels

From 35.7 £ /h

Professional violinist with pedagogical diploma.
Do you want to learn to play the violin or viola at your own pace and in a relaxed atmosphere? Without mandatory theory lessons, without pressure, stress or exams? Are you busy with school, or with other hobbies? Or is music school not compatible with a job and do you prefer the personal approach of private lessons? Then you can come to me for a solid lesson package, which we can adapt to your personal expectations and ambitions. This can be weekly, biweekly, or whatever, with or without theory. You can come to me both during the day and in the evening, a fixed day is not necessary either.

You do not need to have any prior knowledge of music theory or an instrument. Everyone can contact me, from beginners to advanced conservatory students. I have a lot of experience teaching young children, adolescents and adults. My approach is very personal and adapted to each student individually. All styles are possible. Your lessons are completely tailor-made to your needs.
Do you want to learn to play a specific piece? Or do you want to get to know the instrument better? Everything is possible!

PIANO

Foundation
First we start with the music theory, melody and chords. These are the essential building blocks for making music.

Style
Next we apply stylistic tools to bring the music to life. This could include jazz chords, blues riffs, walking bass lines, and more.

Skills

We learn the skills (soloing, ear training, accompaniment, improvisation, lead sheets, analysis...)

Following this approach, you will finally understand the music that you are playing, and you will be able to apply the techniques to hundreds of other songs.

CVT COACHING

Hi! I am Tine, a singer, voice teacher and vocal coach. I am passionate about helping singers to make the most of their singing practice so they can thrive, grow, and become the powerful performers and communicators the world needs today.

I can help you train your voice and keep it healthy, develop your own unique sound, sing across different styles, manage performance anxiety, be authentic on stage, deliver powerful presentations, make more efficient goals and help you reach them.

It is possible to create all the sounds from all the styles / genres in a healthy way!

CVT METHOD?

Singing is not that difficult and everybody can learn to sing. CVT divideds the singing techniques into four main subjects. By combining elements of these four subjects, you can produce precisely the sounds you want. You will also be able to pinpoint your specific problems and mistakes, and you can focus on which techniques you wish to work on.

The four main subjects are:

The three overall principles – to ensure healthy sound production
The four vocal modes – to choose the ‘gear’ you want to sing in.
Sound colours – to make the sound lighter or darker.
Effects – to achieve specific sound effects.

Hey,
My name is Jasper and besides guitar lessons I also give private lessons in solfège!

For me it is important that you can develop your music knowledge in a motivating private lesson where the focus is on your interests.

In these lessons we can go through all the principles of music theory, from learning to read your first notes to chord theory to scales and beyond.
The lessons are for students of all ages and all levels.

I myself studied at the conservatory in Rotterdam and in Ghent and have been active as a professional musician for several years. I have 10 years of experience as a private teacher.

Lessons take place in Gentbrugge near the Keizerpark.
We can determine the exact time of the lesson together. All very flexible.

Does this seem like something for you?
Don't hesitate to send me a message.

Hope to see you soon!
Jasper

Tailor-made cello lessons for all ages and levels!
Currently via webcam

I studied at the conservatories of Antwerp and Ghent and obtained my master's degree as a performing musician and my diploma in specific teacher training. In addition to experience as a performing musician, I am also active as a teacher of solfège and cello. I have experience as a teacher with children and adults.

Would you like to learn to play the cello? Or would you like to improve your technique? Be sure to send me a message and we will make a schedule based on your wishes, agenda and interests! Being able to read notes is not a must, we can also tackle this during the lessons.

Solfège and music theory lessons are also possible!

Lessons for all ages. Harp, piano, music theory.

I graduated from the KMC Gent and have a career/experience of more than 40 years.
I also followed yoga, mindfulness and kinesiology courses.
The combination of playing an instrument with mindfulness opens up many possibilities.

During the lessons for harp or piano you learn the necessary technique, and musicality is taken into account.
The better the technical skill, the more fluidly the musicality can unfold.
No previous knowledge of ear training is required for the instrument. Gradually you learn to read the notes.

For those who wish, I give AMV (General Musical Education)
Here you practice extra on reading, rhythm, general & specific hearing exercises, and theoretical knowledge.

Those who are going to higher music studies and experience a gap in music theory can come to me for specific training. I also guide students for solfège who are taking their entrance exam for KMC and also during their student trajectory. Here is more explanation.

The lessons are individual and adapted to each student.

For toddlers aged 4 to 6 who are learning to play the piano, I follow a method based on a musical fairy tale.
It is a method that meets the child's world of experience.
They discover the possibilities of the instrument and the way of writing songs. Step by step they learn to play and sing songs on the piano.

For harp I can advise to start at 6 years. Fingers at 4 years are still too tender to pluck strings. 6 years is a better age to start harp playing. They play on a small instrument that is appropriate for their age.

For children who start from the age of 7, I use a different method book for piano and the child's world of experience is also taken into account.

For children who start playing the harp at that age, the method book is also aimed at the child.

The method books are therefore tailored to the age and capabilities of the child, teenagers and adults.

For students at the college who are going to study music professionally, the subject 'music theory' is included in the curriculum. In case of shortcomings in music theory, the specific needs are updated.
Both theory, lecture in G and F clef, performance of rhythm in all time signatures, rhythm dictation, intonation training, intonation dictation, recognition of intervals melodic and harmonic, rhythmic-melodic dictation can be updated to make up for deficiencies.

I can guide students in music as a hobby, as well as in music professionally.

Hi!
I am Lies, a passionate musician who likes to pass on the tricks of the trade to children and young people.
In 2024 I graduated from the Royal Conservatory of Ghent for clarinet.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in taking lessons with me.

Hope to see you soon!

Are you in love with the sound of the cello but have never dared to start playing it?
Have you been playing the cello as an amateur and now need an expert to guide you?
Do you want to develop and improve your cello and musical skills?
Do you need reinforcement lessons?
Would you like to prepare for entrance exams to the conservatory?
Would you love to join a youth orchestra and need help preparing for the auditions?
...
These are the private cello lessons you were looking for!

My name is Miriam, I am a graduate in Master of Classical Music at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent.
I've been teaching cello to children, teenagers and adults for 10 years, so I've acquired the necessary experience to be able to adapt to the different and personal needs and objectives of each student. My teaching methodology focuses on creating a friendly and relaxed environment (which does not mean undemanding!) in which students feel confident to express their own ideas and worries. In my lessons I focus on technical and postural questions, but we also reflect together on the music, as I like my students to develop their own musical ideas and not just imitate the teacher.

Contact me now to schedule your first lesson and take the first step toward your musical aspirations! :)

Bye everyone!

Would you like to learn to play the violin in a fun, playful and relaxing way, at the pace that suits you best? Young, old, beginner, advanced? Welcome! You can also learn solfège during our lessons.

It is often difficult to schedule music lessons when you attend a music school. Here you can combine both violin and solfège in one lesson.

I studied at the Ghent Conservatory and took several private lessons.
I also regularly perform with my duo and play in various orchestras.

I would like to share my passion and musicality with you!

For me as a teacher it is very important to start from the wishes, needs and competences of the student himself.

If you don't have an instrument available, you can rent one from me. This offer is limited, so please inquire if you're interested.
Regarding music and other material: that is taken by me.

Below you can find some information about myself:

Jess

I am Jess, a musician and producer from Ghent, graduated as a bachelor in music at PXL Hasselt. In the meantime I have been teaching guitar for 10 years at music studios and in the form of private lessons at home. Besides teaching I have my own project called Monagi and I write/produce for bands like Tout Va Bien and Patches. I also play guitar at TheShadow Machine. All my lessons take place in a relaxed atmosphere in my music studio in Ghent at your own pace.

For beginners: During our guitar lesson you can bring your own songs that you want to work on or together we will see what the best songs are for you and what you can learn the most from. This ranges from the basic chords that make up most pop / rock songs to playing along with the melody or accompanying yourself while singing. So you can play what you always dreamed of in no time!

For advanced users: Together we look at what you want to work on in terms of rhythm, soloing or improvisation. Which styles you are familiar with or which you would like to learn to play. These lessons are ideal for you if you want to broaden your knowledge of the guitar or if it feels like you've reached a plateau you can't get past.

Hello! My name is Marcos, I am a clarinetist and I live in Brussels. I offer private lessons in person (they can be at your place or mine) or online.
I have experience as a teacher for the last few years with children, adults, individual and group classes. Professional or amateur level.
In my lessons, I help students find a good contact with the instrument and cultivate a positive relationship with music by integrating the development of auditory skills, a sense of rhythm and optimal use of the body, allowing them to connect with their musical imagination.
Lessons are tailored to the needs and desires of each student.
The most important thing is that we have a good time!

I'm Wout, a guitar and music production student at Kunsthumaniora Brussels. If you want to start playing guitar but aren't sure where to begin, you've come to the right place! I focus on basic techniques and knowledge (chords, reading music, scales), but also on things you'd like to learn (specific songs, techniques, styles, etc.). You don't need any prior knowledge of music theory; I can teach you that (any knowledge you already have is a bonus, of course).

Do you want to start developing your violin skills?
Hello, I’m JeongYun, a violinist from South Korea, currently based in Ghent, Belgium.

I have experience teaching both children and adults — from complete beginners to advanced students preparing for auditions or recitals.
My lessons are tailored to each student’s pace, focusing on building solid technique, expressive sound, and a genuine love for music.

For beginners, I emphasize creating a comfortable and enjoyable learning atmosphere, using simple melodies and creative exercises.
For intermediate or advanced students, I guide you in refining bow control, phrasing, and stage confidence, helping you find your own musical voice.

Lessons can be held in person (in Ghent) or online, and are available in Korean, English and Japanese.
If you’re looking for lessons that go beyond notes — lessons that nurture your musicality and curiosity — I’d be happy to work with you.
