Fabienne
The beginning in the music world. Learn to read notes for the piano and piano lessons
My name is Fabienne and I am 17 years old. Last school year I successfully completed my VWO with music, among other things. As a result, I now have a gap year and I know all the music theory. I have been playing the piano for 8 years with great pleasure. I already teach piano to both young and old, with the motto that everyone can learn to play the piano! My lessons are always calm and I make sure that the student understands everything I explain. I'd rather explain a subject 20 times so that you understand it, than go through it quickly once and you don't understand it. Playing the piano is the most beautiful thing there is, but for many people one subject stands in the way of starting to play the piano. That subject is reading music. Reading notes is not only super useful to continue playing the piano, but it is also very useful to have as a basis for the theory of music. The lessons can be planned according to the student's wishes. It is possible to learn to read music in combination with piano lessons (the way I personally recommend), but it is certainly also possible to just learn to read music. Hopefully we'll see each other soon!

Jules
Piano lessons at home for beginners and advanced students
I give piano lessons at people's homes, in classical and light music. My starting point is to teach you how to ultimately study music independently and achieve a good result. In addition to 'learning to study', a lot of attention is paid to technique and musical interpretation. For each student I put together a personal trajectory of music pieces and exercises that focus on the individual's musical progress and music preferences.

Filipe
Guitar Lessons , Music Lessons, Music Theory and Guitar Technique !!
I will help my students know all about music theory alongside with the classical guitar technique. Experience in teaching students from 7 years old to +50 years old. Adaptation to the students tastes will be the key point for a good work!

Younes
Piano lessons for enthusiastic beginners to advanced
In the first lesson, Younes asks some questions about what your experience is playing the piano, what kind of music (genre) you like, and what you encounter while playing the piano. The lessons are positive and solution-oriented, we look at what you need and want to achieve. Furthermore, Younes will give an introduction about the piano and the basic techniques, and after that it is of course the intention to play :)

Daniils
Violin Lessons made by Daniils (offline and online)
Hi my name is Daniils, I am Latvian born concert violinist which at this time 2 years based in The Netherlands. I am member of the Nationaal Muziekinstrumenten Fonds and member of the ‘’Stift International Festival” in the Het Stift directed by Daniel Rowland. I have good experience of the violin lessons giving from 2020. Got my primarily education with Nely Sarkisjan at Emils Darzins School of Music in Riga, then studied in Moscow at Gnessin School of Music with Alexey Lundin after graduating college in 2021 got the diploma as an Artist and children teacher. And then after got same teaching experience in Riga until 2022. Now I am studying at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam with prof. Ilya Grubert and at Davidsbundler Academie with prof. Daniel Rowland. I am offering lessons for beginners, advanced musicians and amateurs with no age limit. My mission is to help people to begin love the music and avoid bad body positioning for prevention heath harm. I am looking forward to all my students to make a personal program of the developing their skills as a concerting solo, chamber music violinist. Also online lessons via Zoom are available.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I 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.

Mikolaj
Learn Guitar (Pop, Jazz, Funk) and music in general :)
In this class, we will be exploring music by learning your favorite songs from any genre you enjoy. I will personalize the lessons to your needs and make sure we cover all the fundamentals that will set you on the right track! I will teach you how to: - learn songs by ear, (pop, jazz r&b, funk, fusion, hip-hop, and whatever you like honestly) - improvise, - compose, - understand music theory (harmony, rhythm, scales, progressions, sight-reading etc.) - produce and sound design in Ableton. About me: Education: I started playing music at 7 years old, went through 12 years of music school, and then moved to Amsterdam and spent 4 years learning jazz guitar at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. I frequently play with various bands ranging from Pop and Funk to Jazz Fusion and even Techno. Teaching style: I’m open-minded and straightforward, and I focus on giving my students the tools and basics they need to learn and explore on their own.

Simon
Philadelphia/Online Study Piano With Concert Pianist and Yale Graduate
I am a concert pianist currently living in Philadelphia! I am proud to have more than 20 awards from international piano competitions. If you want to read my artistic bio and read about the awards, and hear me play, please check my website. I am originally from Russia, and for the last two years I have lived in Europe. I’m back in the states in Summer 2024. Here is my story: I started out as a jazz pianist but began dedicating myself to classical music around the age of 14. Two years later I was accepted to the prestigious Central Music School at the Moscow Conservatory. I lived in Russia until the age of 18, and even back then I had major success in international piano competitions. I moved to the US to study with a Van Cliburn Gold medalist under a full scholarship at Park University. I later got my Master’s in piano performance at Yale University. While in the US, I played all over the country and won close to ten international piano competitions. During the past two years I have lived in Germany, where I tried to absorb as much experience as possible about the German piano tradition. I am a U.S. green card holder now. My strategy is to teach you to practice as efficiently as possible. Most people are wasting their time practicing the instrument, then get frustrated and eventually abandon it. I will show you how to make your practicing meaningful. The goal is to make it easier and more enjoyable, not harder. I would describe my approach as hands-on, but I am willing to give students as much freedom as they choose. I often ask my students to send me a video recording of their performance so that we can track progress and discuss our goals and objectives together. I send a detailed lesson summary and practice instructions at the end of every lesson. I try to be polite but straightforward. My job is to encourage you but also be clear about what is getting in your way. I am a perfectionist and encourage my students to push the bar as high as is possible at the moment. Although I have experience as a jazz pianist, my formal training is as a classical pianist and I prefer to offer only classical music lessons, yet the repertoire can range from early baroque to the most recent contemporary. Wishing you my musical best, Simon
