Ga nu op pianoles en ontdek een wereld van muziek! (Haarlem-Heemstede)

Piano leren spelen is ontzettend leuk! Je kunt dan iets wat de meeste mensen niet kunnen, maar wel erg graag zouden willen leren. Je leert noten lezen, ritme tappen, beide handen tegelijk gebruiken, hard en zacht spelen, akkoorden herkennen en nog veel meer. Pianospelen is een echte kunst, maar bijna iedereen kan het leren! Als je regelmatig oefent, zul je versteld staan van jezelf.

We beginnen met een goede basis, zoals de juiste zit- en handhouding, muziekschrift lezen en in tempo spelen. Voor gevorderde leerlingen ligt de focus op articulatie, dynamiek, frasering en hoe je in een klassieke of populaire stijl speelt. In mijn lessen ligt de nadruk op ritme en expressie. Het gaat er niet om dat je iets supersnel kunt, maar dat je een pianostuk met gevoel en in het juiste ritme kunt spelen.

Ik ben nu 41 en speel piano sinds mijn 8e. Ik begon met eenvoudige stukjes en kreeg les van verschillende leraren, waaronder Sherry van Baaren. In Enschede studeerde ik bij de Russische pianist Michail Markov voor de juiste interpretatie van klassieke muziek zoals Mozart-sonates en romantische stukken. Dit alles heeft ertoe geleid dat ik nu zelf pianoles geef en daarnaast ook mijn eigen pianomethode heb geschreven.

Ik werk als leraar op een internationale basisschool in Nederland en ben gewend te werken met kinderen van 3-12 jaar. Vier a vijf jaar is de minimumleeftijd voor pianoles, maar volwassenen zijn ook van harte welkom.

Met vriendelijke groet,
Christiaan

About Me

My name is Christiaan (41). I am a primary school teacher and I also give piano lessons in my free time. I have written a six-part piano method (pianoboekjes.nl). I am always busy with music and playing the piano. I am Dutch, but I also speak English.

Education

From the age of 8, I took piano lessons with Sherry van Baaren and later with Michael Markov in Enschede, as well as with several other piano teachers for shorter periods. Even at a young age, I always enjoyed playing the piano and would always try out the most challenging pieces.

Experience / Qualifications

I have been giving piano lessons for about five years alongside my work. I am good with children and know how to motivate them. Having written my own method and guided many different students on their musical journeys, I am well-equipped to train a student from the very beginning up to approximately conservatory entry level.

Perfect. Madeleine was very enthusiastic
I took a package of 5 lessons with Christiaan this summer. I wanted to understand how to use oil paint better. With Christiaan, we rapidly get to the point of the technical aspects of oil paint. He taught me the concept of layering in wet to wet and showed me examples of this in his current artwork. Christiaan is passionate about art and loves teaching! Highly recommended.
Lots of patience. Came across very sweet.

Gina
At home piano lessons for children. Single and duo lessons in the comfort of your own home. Based in HAARLEM.
Are you looking for piano lessons for your child(ren) but don't know which teacher to trust? The first music classes for a young student are always the most important, often determining whether the child will love the instrument or not, so they require special attention. Pretty scary, I imagine! So, hello there! My name is Gina, and I am a specialized piano teacher in music education for children, with more than 7 years of experience teaching young pupils. I am the owner of MusicPro studio in The Hague, but I have decided to start teaching also in Haarlem, which I really love. I have worked with dozens of piano beginners, ensuring they have the best start in their musical journey. By following various teaching methods that have been proven to positively impact children's overall music education, I make sure that my pupils remain interested and learn a lot from the very beginning! You can book a first lesson with me, where you - the parents - can also be present during the class. And who knows? Maybe you'll learn something new too! See you soon! Gina

Sara Louise
Piano or keyboard lessons for all ages. Children and adults.
I have been playing piano since I was nine years old. But from highschool I studied bassoon along with piano as a secondary instrument. Since highschool and university I have been giving piano lessons for children and adults along with my studies. I have also taken basic classical guitar lessons and learned how to play soprano and alto recorder

Stephan
Learn how to play piano (all ages and experiences) from a friendly and experienced teacher
My aim in teaching is to inspire students to become as involved in music as they possibly can, and find an interest in it that will stay with them forever. I have nearly 10 years of experience teaching, and have a piano at my home or can travel to your home. I have a BMus Degree from Trinity Laban Conservatoire as well as an ATCL from Trinity College. In addition, I've studied at the Conservatorium of Music in Sydney, Australia. My primary focus is around classical music, but I am experienced in teaching Music Theory as well as non-classical styles.

Maaike
Singing and piano lessons at your home in Haarlem
My name is Maaike, I am 25 and graduated from Conservatorium Haarlem where I studied Voice, in May 2018. I've been playing the piano since I was little, both classical and popular repertoire, and also started singing while simultaneously playing the piano or guitar to accompany myself. Nowadays, I write songs for myself and others and play these songs live with a band under my artist name MYCA. In June 2021 I finished a Songwriting Master in Rotterdam at Codarts Conservatorium. Since 2017 I have taught private or duo singing lessons, piano lessons, and guitar lessons at students' homes in Haarlem and surrounding areas. Would you like to accompany your own singing? Combination lessons of singing/piano or singing/guitar are also a possibility.

Gosse
Piano lessons according to the principle: the best and fastest way to Rome!
Do you want to teach (electric) piano, keyboard or synthesizer? Then you have come to the right place! Gosse (1989) has been giving piano lessons for more than 10 years and we are proud to announce that almost all students who start the lessons actually continue. The lessons are primarily focused on fun and development. He knows from experience that the most important ingredients for learning to play the piano as effectively as possible are: 1: The pleasure of playing The fun is increased by learning to play numbers that the student experiences as beautiful or fun and that bring the right degree of challenge. Gosse mainly specializes in Pop, Soul, R&B, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Funk, Bossa-nova, Latin and Light classical styles. Learn to play your favorite songs! 2: Learning in the way that best suits the student There are three different ways in which someone can learn to play the piano: sheet music, by ear and (the relatively new way) through software programs such as Synthesia. The correct method differs from person to person. 3: Knowing the music theory / shortcuts The three ways you can learn to play the piano described above help you press the right keys at the right time. But it can be easier. Namely by knowing the underlying music theory and / or the shortcuts! Gosse also teaches music production (songwriting and producing). He is most specialized in the Logic Pro and Ableton studio programs. He also helps vocalists who want to accompany themselves on the piano. Feel free to contact us for a trial lesson, for a more detailed version of the above 3 points or if you want to know more!

Sebastián
Piano Lessons (Classical Music and Non classical), Music Theory, Harmony, Musical Arrangement, Composition
At my studio my students will not only learn how to play the piano, but they will receive a complete musical education in order to achieve their musical dreams. I will give all my best so everybody will get the tools for developing their own voice, helping them to master the instrument and teaching them all the theoretical knowledge they’ll need to make their particular personality shine. Openness, joy, dedication, creativity and passion for music are some of the things that you will find in the international environment of my studio. I care about who my students are and what they have to say to the world, and I will help them to develop it from the very first lesson. In my class you will not only be able to receive piano lessons but also will learn to understand how the music works as a language. If the interest and the profile of the student goes in the direction of the purely classical music performance, the lessons will be focused on a deep and conscious piano technique development, practicing techniques, musical interpretation, history of music, history of the piano, applied harmony on the keyboard, analysis, and score reading by a method that I have developed for over 15 years of experience. And if the students wish, I can help them to prepare for the ABRSM exams and competitions as well. All this is aiming to achieve in a very practical and exciting experience the best results in the fastest way possible. But if the profile and the interests of the students goes on another way, I will give them all the tools they need to understand the language of music in depth, so they can find their own voice on the instrument. In that case the lessons will include contents of piano technique, score reading, applied harmony on the keyboard, composition, improvisation, musical arrangement, music production, recording techniques, jazz and pop music analysis and performance. Both programs can be combined depending on the focus and the profile of the student, or in case the student would like to go deeper in one of the previously mentioned subjects there is the opportunity to take an independent course of specialization on the desired topic. At the end of the semester every student will perform at the winter and summer concerts held every year and will have the possibility of making a recording session with the material worked during the term. With this, the student will not only be able to see his progress and work, but also will give him a direct experience of performing and working on a live or studio recording session, which is a fundamental part of the developing process of every musician. Hope you can join and if so, I’ll be very happy to teach you!

Cheslava
Piano and Singing tutor with 5 years experience and professional education
From my childhood I have been studying music and art: sang in choir and solo, played piano, painted, studied music history and literature, solfeggio. Later in college I have also learned choir conducting, had ensemble and choir singing lessons, cultural studies. During last year in university I had pedagogy practice at university and at private art school (where I worked as a music tutor before the war - piano, voice). I truly enjoyed working with students. They all were different age (8 - 40+ years old) and level. But all were very interesting and work was pleasant. My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world. In addition I prepared presentations (which contained information about cultural and historical background and musical and character/art analysis). So after graduation from choir conducting faculty (which allowed me to deepen my knowledge in many important compatible branches) I concentrated on studying classical singing and piano, expanded my cultural studies and analysis knowledge, practiced solfeggio and harmony.
