About Me

I have been teaching saxophone and music since 2013, and I especially like to teach individual lessons, to look into what kind if music my students like and try to work with them with that material to improve their musical skills. My effort is to build a connection with my students and with their taste and direction in music, customizing the lesson towards their goals and ambitions.

I have a wide experience in terms of genres and music styles, as well as in terms of professional situations (live concerts, recording sessions, teaching online and in person, cruise ship gigs).

I am constantly writing new music and performing with my bands, I spend my time between Mexico and Italy at the moment, researching Mexican and latin traditional music, and composing, playing, teaching and recording as much as I can.

I have taught masterclasses and private lessons in Italy (Merano jazz festival), The Netherlands, Mexico (JazzUV - University of Veracruz; UNICACH - University of Chiapas).

Music is an art that gives great rewards if approached with passion and dedication, and it is a great feeling for a teacher to see that approach in a student!

Whether you dream of playing your first notes, refining your performance skills, or preparing for a professional path, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.

📩 Contact me today and let’s start your musical journey together!

Turkish reed flute is an essential instrument of Turkish Classcial Music. It has a deep and dense culture dating from 13. century around. If you want to learn about how to perform it you first need a teacher educated by masters on this field. As of many teachers you can find online but you make sure that not every tutor meets with traditional style.
Solfege and method are inseperable parts of the lessons. So for beginners and intermediate students must follow a compotent tutor to learn about the way of classic form.

I am a Spanish pianist and composer (MMus graduate from Codarts Rotterdam in both directions) with many years of teaching experience, and also very active in performing in various contexts.

I give private piano lessons for all levels and styles (classical, jazz, Latin, new age, pop...), as well as music theory, composition and improvisation lessons. My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student.

The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup.

I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

Would you classify improvisation as composition or performance? Well actually it is both! When you improvise you are composing music on the spot, performing what you have made up at the same time as you have composed it.

For many people improvisation is a scary word and having to improvise in a group or band is an alarming prospect. However, this really does not need to be the case. As long as you have a basic knowledge of how to play your instrument you will be able to improvise. Once you know the principle of how chords are formed you will soon be improvising with ease.

The key to success is understanding chords. Once you know how chords are formed and know what notes make up a few chords you will be well on your way towards being able to improvise. We will, therefore, start by ensuring a firm knowledge of certain chords. After this we will progress to improvising a simple melody over the top of these chords. The next stage is to start using notes that are not in the chord. The process is then open ended with emphasis on developing the melody.

If you play a keyboard instrument you will be able to improvise your own pieces and be able to entertain your friends at a moments notice. On the other hand if you play in a band or a group you will be well equipped to do a real 'jam' session.

Whether you play a single line instrument (flute, saxophone, trumpet, violin etc.) or keyboard instruments, this class is for you.

Want to learn to play the drums?
Easy as 1,2,3.
With me you will learn the basics, play along with your favorite music and build your own grooves.
Preferably in my studio, but it can also be at yours.

I have been behind the kit for 15 years in different styles (rock, jazz, reggae, afrobeat).

If you have any questions, please feel free to send a message :)

PROFESSIONAL GUITARIST, COMPOSER, MUSIC AND GUITAR TEACHER

Beginner-Advanced Level

Experience:
I am a professional musician and have been teaching students of all ages for over 20 years. My experience as a teacher and my pursuit of self-improvement as a musician have led me to develop an effective method that I have already tested with over a hundred students.
Throughout my career I had the satisfaction of studying with great masters of different specialties or styles, each one emphasizing different aspects of flamenco, classical or modern guitar and each one has given me their approach (technique, rhythms, accompaniment, harmony, etc.), which has led me after years of study and compilation to take the best from each one to develop my method.

My role in my classes is more that of a personal trainer than a teacher, where I will be very attentive to bringing out the best in my students, finding the right technique to help them develop a good rhythm, working on their rhythm, etc.
For me, the role of a teacher, in addition to teaching, is to be part of a team, to maintain morale and constantly improve oneself while always maintaining a love for music.

Methodology:
I tailor the lessons to the student's level, style, or goals. Generally, the first half of the lesson is dedicated to technique, focusing on proper placement, execution, and relaxation, which will result in a good sound. Over time, I've realized that it's also a way to connect with the guitar, concentrate, and warm up. So, little by little, we'll develop our routine, which will begin by working on basic rhythmic aspects.
The second half is dedicated to playing, trying to put into practice what we learned about the technique with the sticks or studying other concerns of the student, which may be a theme, harmony, falsetas, improvisation, or even other styles, etc., always obviously taking into account the search or interest of the student.

FLAMENCO
- Flamenco technique
- Palos (Tangos, Bulerías, Alegrías, Soleá, Taranta...)
- Accompaniment to singing and dancing
- Clapping and rhythms

MODERN GUITAR
- Harmony
- Improvisation
- Repertoire (rumbas, pop, jazz, rock, etc.)

CLASSIC
- Reading, solfège and interpretation.
- Works
- I work with progressive learning books

Hey there! Do you want to start a new hobby? Do you already play the piano and you want to improve your skills with a creative approach to the instrument? Then I think I can help you!
I can teach you basic and advanced concepts of any style on the piano (classical, jazz, pop-rock...), and if you like improvisation and jazz then we get along even better!
I offer very personalized classes based on your level and interests. My approach to teaching strongly takes the student's CREATIVITY into account, but without forgetting that a good knowledge of MUSIC THEORY and PIANO TECHNIQUE are essential.

About my philosophy in teaching music:
In a creative field like music, education is a delicate matter. I firmly believe that a teacher must do everything possible to avoid suppressing the student’s personal voice. Each of us — regardless of age or skill level — has a unique approach to music, even before touching the instrument!
My goal is to help students discover their own musical identity at the piano, drawing on my experience and offering a solid theoretical foundation tailored to their interests and level.
That said, as in any discipline, there are no shortcuts in music. Passion and dedication are essential to achieving meaningful results. Furthermore, a solid technical and theoretical foundation is indispensable, no matter your musical interests.
I look forward to sharing my deep passion for music with you. Feel free to reach out for more information!

Most jazz piano teachers offer you a weekly video call and wish you luck until next week. I offer something different. Over the past six years, I've built a structured teaching system for adults who are serious about learning jazz piano properly — whether you're a working professional who's always loved jazz and finally has time to learn, or a classically trained musician ready to break free from the page and start improvising.

What makes my approach different:
Every student gets access to an interactive practice platform with exercises you can work through between lessons — tension identification, voicing construction, ear training, and more. These aren't PDFs or YouTube links, they're purpose-built tools that track your progress and adapt to your level. On top of that, I design personalised weekly practice routines for each student. You'll always know exactly what to practise, how long to spend on it, and what "ready to move on" sounds like. No guessing, no wasted practice time.

My methodology is ear-first. We build strong harmonic foundations through shell voicings before moving to complex concepts. You learn to hear the music before you theorise about it. This is how jazz was always meant to be learned — by listening, not just reading.

Who I work with best:
— Professionals in other fields who love music and want to learn jazz piano for the pure enjoyment of it. You have limited time but real ambition. I respect that and structure everything to make your practice hours count.
— Classically trained pianists who want to understand jazz harmony, stop depending on sheet music, and develop the confidence to improvise. I know this transition well and I have a clear path for it. What a typical month looks like: Weekly lessons via video call (frequency and duration would be according to students needs), tailored to your current goals and level. Between lessons, you have your practice routine and full access to the exercise platform. I track your activity and adjust the plan based on what I see. It's not a course you follow passively — it's an ongoing, personalised programme.

Guitar course open to all levels, from beginners to advanced students.

The course covers classical and electric guitar, as well as pop guitar and composition, offering comprehensive training tailored to the student's interests.

Initially, a level assessment will be conducted to identify technical skills, musical knowledge, and prior experience. Based on this assessment, and taking into account the student's goals, objectives, and musical tastes, a personalized methodology will be designed, focused on technical, musical, and creative development.

The course's approach seeks to balance technique, interpretation, musical understanding, and personal expression, allowing the student to progress in a solid and conscious manner, regardless of the style they wish to explore further.
