Music Theory by a Master's in Composition Student (All levels)
No matter what your interests in music are, understanding the fundaments of music will help you grow faster and higher. Do you feel you miss some core knowledge and that holds you down in your learning? Or maybe you know already the fundaments but want to go one step further? Whatever your case is, I am ready to help you uncover the internal functionings of music and build solid musicianship.
If you play an instrument, bring it to the class. Learning theory through practice is a rewarding and effective path to understanding abstract concepts. By learning music theory through your playing, you get both a deeper understanding of music and better performing skills.
Don't wait anymore to work out your music skills and become the best of yourself!

About Me
I am a Spanish composer, teacher, and artistic project manager resident in The Hague (Netherlands). I am interested in the application of visual and/or verbal codes to music composition. I am the co-organizer of "Nameless Elegy" a collaborative multimedia project with lighting, poetry, and music to be performed next spring in The Hague and Madrid.My experience does not end in concert music. I have worked for the video-game start-up "Blade Games" and composed soundtracks for shorts. I am conducting research about applying cognitive principles to music creation for building communicative bridges between the composer and the audience.
Education
I am a second-year student of the Master's in Composition at the Royal Conservatoire of music in The Hague (Netherlands). I earned a Bachelor's degree in Composition at the Royal Conservatoire of Music in Madrid (Spain) in 2021. Previously I learned viola and piano at the Cristobal de Morales Conservatoire in Sevilla (Spain).Experience / Qualifications
I have five years of experience in private music teaching. I have taught students from basic to undergraduate levels. I have experience working with teenagers, young adults and adults, and senior students. My lessons are adapted to the student's interests and goals.I can guide you through your steps into the music composition world. With experience both in concert music and music for audiovisuals, I can teach you to think like a creator and shape your pieces the way you want. Gain control over all stages of the composition process and let your creativity be freed from technical struggles.
I will teach you the fundamental theory necessary to make the best of your talent, introduce you to new and old trends in music, and help you develop a critical evaluation of your own work. Every student is unique, so my tutorship is adapted to the level, goals, and interests of each individual composer.

Guitar Lessons by Classically Trained Guitarist and TeacherAre you interested in learning how to play the guitar and exploring the captivating world of music? Would you like to be able to express yourself through guitar?
Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced player, I am here to guide you through your own musical journey and help you reach the level that you aim for. I am a classically trained guitarist with several years of experience and through professional guidance and lessons adapted to your own personality, we can discover your creative side.
My aim is to help students acquire a correct technique and deep understanding of music and expression, which will help them perform important pieces of the classical guitar repertoire, as well as songs and pieces of different genres.
About me:
I am Nikos and I am a classical guitarist with 15 years of experience. I started playing classical guitar at the age of 10 and from the age of 14, with the supervision of my teacher, I have been helping and guiding younger guitar students, giving me a hands-on experience in teaching from an early age. In 2019, I obtained my soloist diploma from the Hellenic Conservatory of Music and Arts, giving me the right to teach and since then I have been teaching privately. Currently, I am studying with professor Pavel Steidl, at the Royal Conservatoire of the Hague and I have been attending a Music Pedagogy course, as well as courses in Early Music.
Since 2014, I have been attending guitar festivals and academies, giving me the opportunity to learn from some of the most important classical guitarists of our era and also be awarded prizes in national and international competitions, such as the 1st prize in Palaio Faliro guitar festival in Athens in 2020 and the 3rd prize in the 1st International Nikita Koshkin competition in Russia in 2021. In 2024, I was honored to receive a scholarship given each year to two European guitarists, giving me the opportunity to attend the Volterra Project Summer Guitar Institute 2024 in Volterra, Italy.

Piano and Music Theory lessons in The Hague and VoorburgHello there!
Welcome to my profile. I am Rui and I teach piano. The piano is known as the most complete musical instrument of all. This is because when playing it we can get all kinds of characters and sounds: very deep basses or super soft high notes; delicate melodies or dense harmonies (almost like an orchestra sometimes). This is one of the reasons why I love to play the piano, its versatility adapts to my everyday mood.
I would love to show you the wonders we can create with this amazing instrument!
Lessons
Every student is different, and by saying this I mean that I prepare every lesson specifically for each student. Some might be more shy, others might need more time to acknowledge some questions.
I believe that music (much like everything else) should be taught with patience and motivation.
You shouldn’t feel like you’re going against time, it should be the opposite. As a teacher, I always give priority to your motivation and excitement regarding the lesson’s activity. If I see that a student is not enjoying the lesson I have to improvise and turn it around.
When teaching, the most important thing for me is that you learn while having fun.
I have already some years of experience in giving piano lessons to people of all ages. I adapt the lesson content for every student individually, and I always give them the freedom to follow their musical taste and instincts. I also give a lot of focus to creativity and improvisation.
At the end of the lesson, I usually save a few minutes for the student to decide what he/she wants to do: maybe a little 4-hand improvisation, or maybe play a piece they have already learned and that they enjoy playing.
About me
Most of my studies and experience as a teacher took place in Portugal. I completed my Bachelor's Degree in Piano Performance in 2020.
I moved to The Netherlands in 2020 to attend the Master Program in Classical Piano Performance in the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague.
My academic studies were built on classical music but I also have some experience in pop and rock music.
I hope this motivates you to study piano with me! Looking forward to seeing you soon during your first lesson!

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any levelI teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age.
I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.
