About Me
My musical history: from the age of 6 to 17 I took classical piano lessons. When I was 16 I started drumming in a heavy metal band. Within 2 years I taught myself a more extreme form of metal (technical American style (Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, Death) Death and grindcore) on guitar. Then I released 1 demo (1995) and a CD (1998) with the result of the first demo, demo of the month in the Aardschok. The CD that was released in 1998 was also mentioned as CD of the month and as band of the month in the same Aardschok. In the past 10 years I have upgraded my acoustic guitar playing by playing with different groups, including Irish Folk with a Shanty / Irish Folk band, a trio band that played different covers (from The Band, Bob Dylan to Townes van Zandt) and recorded more than 200 tracks with: Ukelele, Mandolin, Double bass, banjo, piano and of course guitar. These tracks are 90% self-conceived, recorded and mixed in my home studio. For the past 3 years I have been playing double bass in an Americana trio with my own work.
Education
Private piano lessons from 1980 to 1991. Double bass lessons from 2022 to 2024. MCO-International Trade from 1992 to 1994. Soundacademy Hilversum 1997 producer/sound engineer.

I graduated from the Conservatory in Arnhem (ArtEZ) in 2013. Since then I have been working as an actor, singer and pianist (mostly theater). In addition to playing always been active as a teacher. Many group lessons but also individual lessons. Currently active as a keyboard player for the Aunt Joke Karaoke Band.
Because I master many different disciplines, we can make the lessons as personal as you want. Do you enjoy learning to guide yourself while singing? Do you want to write a song? Do you want to know if you are singing healthy? Do you want more technique in your piano playing? Do you want to learn more about music theory? Or just sing songs that you like? Everything is possible! Call or message me especially for questions !!

My name is Vadim from the Polder Guitar School. I'm a professional musician with experience in concerts and studio recording, an electric guitar teacher, and a jazz orchestra performer.

I teach both electric and acoustic guitar. Besides analyzing songs, I also teach basic musical knowledge (harmony, music theory) and improvisation. I also help with vocals: I sing myself, teach you how to work on songs, how to combine vocals and guitar, and help you compose your own music.

I work with both adults and children.

I teach guitar lessons in English or Dutch.

I teach online or I can come to your home in the area of Nijkerk and Amersfoort

(Vathorst, Nijkerkerveen, Schothorst, Bunschoten-Spakenburg, Hoevelaken, Barneveld, Putten, Leusden)

Music is a beautiful world, and I invite you to explore it together!

Everyone can come up with their own songs with me. Because I really search everything out by ear; from pop songs to hard rock guitar solos

So we immediately start working on the music you want to learn to play

I graduated from the Herman Brood Academy and have been teaching guitar to young and old for 15 years.

With more than 15 years teaching privately and in different institutions and countries, my aim as your teacher is that you as a student achieve whichever are your goals, be it playing in a professional band, or compose popular music in a jazz, blues or any other type of band. Besides, you can use the lessons to become a professional/semiprofessional producer composing music for movies, videogames or any type of band form, such as symphonic or philharmonic orchestra. The other use of these lessons is also achieving academic results; for instance, preparing you to enter the University or to finish your music studies.

Piano lessons for children and adults at your location. If you want to learn to play your favorite compositions or songs, you are more than welcome to take lessons with me. During my lessons you will learn to play both classical music and your favorite pop compositions. If desired, we will delve into music theory and the basic principles of jazz.
The training starts at the beginning and ends at the end result. I also give extra lessons to children and adults who are already following a music education.
