Hi! I’m Oleg, a professional guitarist and music educator based in Groningen, Netherlands. I hold a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Guitar from Prins Claus Conservatorium, however most of my musical education happened on real stages — performing, touring, and working full-time as a musician since 2016. I’ve toured internationally aboard Royal Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises, P&O, Cunard, Ponant, and Princess Cruises, performing everything from solo sets and jazz nights to full-scale theatre productions with singers, dancers, and a full technical crew for audiences up to 1500 people. This experience shaped me into a truly versatile musician — equally comfortable playing jazz, rock, blues, funk, bossanova, pop. 🔽 I can teach you how to play: ⚡️🎸Electric guitar 🎵🎸Acoustic guitar 🔊🎸Bass guitar 🎼🎸Classical guitar 🔽 What you’ll get: ➡️ 1-on-1 private lesson via Zoom or in person at my home studio ➡️ Personalized approach for your skill level and musical goals ➡️ Focus on the basics: technique, rhythm, harmony, ear development ➡️ Real-world insights from a full-time performing musician ➡️ Sheet music, exercises and backing tracks tailored for you ➡️ Lessons available in English or Russian 🔽 Lesson focus areas: 🎸 Technique 🎶 Improvisation & Composition 🎸 Fretboard knowledge 🎵 Ear training 📘 Music theory & harmony & sight-reading 💻 Music notation (Sibelius, Guitar Pro) 🔽 All levels welcome Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or you’re an experienced player wanting to sharpen your skills, I tailor every lesson to your needs.

My lessons are personalized and dynamic. They combine instrumental technique with ear training, applied theory, and repertoire that most motivates the student. My goal is to train not only competent bass players, but well-rounded musicians who understand their role within a band and develop their own artistic voice. 🎯 MAIN OBJECTIVES • Mastering right-hand and left-hand techniques (fingerstyle, slap, tapping, etc.). • Develop an active musical ear and improvisation skills. • Understand the role of the bass in different musical styles and contexts. • Acquire tools to play with ease in ensembles and recording sessions. • Stimulate creativity and personal expression through the instrument. 📦 INCLUDED MATERIALS • 📖 PDFs with progressive technical exercises, from beginner to advanced level. • 🎧 Audio files (play-alongs) for practicing in a real context. • 🎼 Customizable repertoire: pieces chosen by the student, adapted to their level. • 📚 Modules of harmony and theory applied to bass. • 🎶 Improvisation material: scales, rhythmic patterns and stylistic language. 🔄 METHOD STRUCTURE 1. Initial assessment: diagnosis of musical level and interests. 2. Personalized plan: selection of the directory and definition of short/medium term objectives. 3. Dynamic lessons: combination of technique, repertoire, ear training and improvisation. 4. Continuous monitoring: progress recordings, personalized feedback and adjustments. 🎸 CONTENT BY LEVEL • Beginner: posture, chords, basic grooves, rhythmic reading, simple pieces. • Intermediate: slap technique, major and minor scales, walking bass, intermediate level repertoire. • Advanced: extensive techniques, modern harmony, free improvisation, complex repertoire. 👨‍🏫 PEDAGOGICAL APPROACH • A flexible method that adapts to the student's tastes and objectives. • Contextual practice: all exercises applied in real musical situations. • Emphasis on musicality, not just technique. • Use of technology to optimize learning (apps, audio, video).

Trusted teacher: As a music producer I've had recent releases on Crosstown Rebels UK and Codek Records UK/CH in 2025. If you search my name you will find my music which stylistically comes out of my years as a professional club DJ in New York City and Geneva more recently. As an instructor I work with students from beginner to advanced on guitar, electric bass, Ableton live, mixing and song production. I work to make lessons fun while teaching you the skills you need to play the music and songs you love. Additionally, I teach techniques that allow you to learn songs independently, while discussing the theory and mechanics of music in the context of the songs we're working on. With a deep knowledge of different musical styles that make people dance, I place particular emphasis on rhythm and using your ear, how you listen when you're playing music—how to recognize your emotional and physical experience when you're playing well. This can happen at any level. 🎶 Adjunct Professor of Electronic Music at Long Island University for four years, specializing in music software composition. 🎶 Guitar and bass teacher at Ecolint's Le Grand Boissière and GEMS Academy in Etoy. 🎶 DJ in New York and in Geneva, primarily for events organized by local Swiss art and music associations. 🎶Musical training in the professional music scene. 🎶Studied jazz improvisation and, at 20, became a member of a seven-piece band in NYC, whose album "The Sound of Konk" is considered an important document of that creative era. 🎶Music producer for the Children's Television Workshop (Sesame Street) and coach for the musical performances of the child actors. Numerous independent dance music releases. Please check with me directly for availability.

Bass & Music theory lessons (harmony, rhythm, composition, etc.) by a qualified teacher (Ivry-sur-Seine)
Christophe

rating green star
I'm really glad that I can take bass lessons from Christophe, as a professional bass player, he has really good skills and can adapt easily according to students' levels and preferences. Also, he is really responsible, and he sent the course notes to me very promptly after each lesson, which helped me to memorize better. For questions that I may have about bass, he is also quite responsive, through which I've learnt a lot. I strongly recommend Christophe, for his profession, friendliness, as well as patience and responsibility. And I'm also sure that he will be a good tutor and friend as well in your bass journey.

Pietro is an excellent professional Bass Guitar teacher with extensive theory and practical musical knowledge. He makes you feel comfortable and confident in his company. I feel any questions you may have to do with music theory or practical he can answer, demonstrate and teach you. For those students who speak English, his spoken, knowledge and understanding of the the English language is excellent.
