Learn how to sound like a pro-guitarist with minimum skills
Are you tired of reading tabs yet not being able to play your favorite songs on the guitar? Are you tired of putting a lot of effort into practice but still not meeting your guitar goals? Or do you just want to pick up a few songs on the guitar to impress your friends/colleagues without the hassle of committing to some serious music theory?
If your answers to all of this are a resounding YES! then congratulations, you're in the right place.
I believe the biggest lesson I can share with you about playing the guitar is: practice! and inspiration. Practise is critical, and you can't practice if you're uninspired.
Do you want to:
a. Learn easy songs and entertain people?
b. Play live or record?
c. Move on quickly to an electric guitar?
d. Get the blues/country vibes?
e. Get the flamenco (Phrygian) vibes?
f. Play percussive guitar?
g. Play instrumental guitar (no singing)?
h. Cover pop songs?
i. Compose?!?!?!?
On the very first meeting, we will discuss your desired guitar goals and realize if I'd be able to help you with them. If you do choose to go ahead with me for guitar classes, the curriculum will look something like this:
1. Music appreciation (this is important for being inspired! the more videos you watch the better! I have playlists you can follow for now and develop your own taste in guitar playing).
2. Finding your way on the fretboard.
3. Finger exercises.
4. Fingerstyle picking/ plucking (depending on the genres that inspire you the most now).
5. Scales, arpeggios, chords, and chord families.
6. Cover songs.
7. Music theory.
8. Keeping up with the tempo (not Kardashians 😛 )
9. Improvisation and play by ear (or eyes)
In professional classes, they'll teach you tempo way earlier but I think it kills the mood for learning. Hence, that is something I intend to cover later. Realistically, we can partially complete steps 1 through 6. Steps 7, 8, and 9 will indeed take a lot of time.
So, what are you waiting for? If you like my vibe and have a passion for music, feel free to join my classes!
Happy guitaring!

cello lessons with an experienced orchestral musician in Amstelveen or Amsterdam SouthCello is the most beautiful instrument there is. From low growling to singing like a bird, everything is possible on the four strings of this bowed instrument. The lesson focuses on technical challenges, and musical vision and development. From Bach's suites through romantic etudes to contemporary music, there is a wonderful repertoire. Let's discover this together and see what suits you.
Dimitrios
Acoustic and Electric Guitar Lessons in Amstedam ZuidI am Dimitrios, I am a greek professional guitarist. I graduated with a masters degree in Jazz guitar from Conservatorium van Amsterdam and also studied in the UK conservatory of Leeds.
As a musician my primary focus is jazz music but I also often play other styles like soul, Rnb and more.
So far in my teaching career I have had experience with many different ages, from 7 to 40 years old and I think I have managed to pass on to them some of my passion for music.
Whether you want to learn to play your favourite tunes, learn to improvise or get some in depth knowledge about music theory and harmony we can work out a suited lesson plan for you. Happy to teach any level and any style from rock to jazz and electric or acoustic guitar.
As every person learns differently, my approach always depends on the student and what you want to get from the music and the guitar.
I always like to have a structured approach in my lessons, here are some subjects we can cover:
Building a repertoire: Blues, Pop, Rock, Country, Jazz, Rnb & soul
Guitar Techniques
Music theory: Chords & scales
Rhythmic Studies
Guitar Accompaniment techniques
Improvisation - Guitar Solos
Sight Reading
Ear Training
Songwriting-Composing
Vismay
Guitar for beginners / Intermediate players - Rock, Blues etc* I love playing guitar whenever I have time. I have been playing from last 9 years with different genres - Rock, Blues etc.
* I am actively playing in church / gospel rock / etc.
* I come with my vast experience and would focus on music rather than theory. I am good with ear training of the music rather than reading notes and playing it perfectly. To me, dynamics is all about music. Just be involved fully into it.
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.
Mary
Instrumental Teacher ( Piano, Guitar, Bass & Ukulele)Welcome to the music class!
Here, we are gonna discover the wonders of learning an instrument. From reading note letters, implementing a proper form to sight reading a piece, we are gonna learn in our own pace. If you're just learning music now and it feels like there's a lot to understand, don't worry we're gonna start from the basics. I will help you understand music and its elements.
With your dedication and my guidance, I'm positive that we will get a good result!

(LIVE or ONLINE!) Piano, improvisation, composition and music theory lessonsI 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.

CLASSICAL, JAZZ/ MODERN PIANO AND RHYTHM COMPLEXITYThe older I get, the more I love. Especially during these times of immense ugliness and hate, wars and conflict, music- that's always been all about love - is the home I keep returning to. To me, mentoring someone is all about sharing the love for the instrument, thirst about the material, desire to explore new musical paths and respect for whatever happens whilst playing.
Not only we will explore technical paths and understand rhythm under a totally different light but also communicate through improvisation and modal principles. My goal is for you to love the instrument a bit more, music a bit more and as Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said "Perhaps love is the process of my leading you gently back to yourself".
So let's explore together the painstakingly beautiful process of music through the inner child.

Music History Lessons Tailored to All Needs and InterestsMy teaching method is carefully tailored to the specific needs of each student, regardless of the subject we are working on (music theory, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.). The pace of learning is always set by the student, ensuring that each lesson aligns realistically with their goals and interests.
Whether you’re looking for a more flexible, amateur approach — open to diverse content — or require a rigorous plan oriented toward exams, auditions, or academic improvement, I design a personalized educational pathway.
My approach is rooted in a highly practical vision of learning, based on the educational model in which I was trained during my master’s degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). I understand teaching as a dynamic process where deep understanding takes precedence over rote memorization.

Music Theory Lessons for All Levels with a Composer-ConductorDo you want to explore music theory at your own pace, whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your existing knowledge? My Music Theory for All Levels course is designed to be flexible, meeting the needs of beginners and advanced learners alike.
We can cover any and all elements of music theory, tailored to your current skills and goals. Beginners can start with the basics--intervals, rhythms, and tonality--while more experienced students can dive into advanced concepts like counterpoint, modulation, and extended techniques.
We’ll use your prefered music and instruments (or voice!) to make the learning process relevant and enjoyable. Whether you're a curious beginner, a performer looking to refine your knowledge, or a composer aiming for a deeper dive, this course is for everyone.
John
Professional jazz musician teaching jazz, blues, funk, R&B, pop, rock, latin and classical piano.I teach online via Zoom, using software which allows you to see the exact keys I'm playing on my keyboard.
My teaching method is to focus on whatever type of music the student loves most, and to build from there. I believe that many people give up their dream of playing an instrument simply because they aren't inspired enough, so my goal is to instill a love for music, whatever that means personally for each individual student.
Everyone learns differently and has their own pace and rhythm. I have some students who like to have a regular weekly or biweekly lesson, and others who just get in touch once in a while when they have digested the previous lesson and feel ready to build on it. Whatever the case, I am very flexible and we can figure out what works best for you.
A bit about me:
Originally honing my skills on the British jazz scene and holding residencies in restaurants and bars around the country, I then went on to tour the world playing on cruise ships, hotels and festivals. I returned to London to complete my master's in jazz piano at the Guildhall School of Music, and during this time performed regularly at Ronnie Scotts, The Vortex and many other venues across the UK. I then spent two years in South America learning about salsa and Cuban music. I now mainly work as a transcriber, writing sheet music for all instruments including full Big Band scores. I have also worked extensively in musical theatre, most recently as musical director for 'Jersey Boys', and on the first US national tour of 'Summer: the Donna Summer Musical'. The video shown below is from my stint playing and directing 'After Midnight', a show set to the music of the Duke Ellington Big Band.
