Elize - London, United Kingdom59Fr

59FrMusic Theory - how to read music, understand it completely, and use it for performing, composing, learning.

Trusted teacher: No matter where you are in your musical journey, theory is necessary to gain musical freedom. Even knowing the basics allows an aspiring musician to start creating arrangements, compose, transpose, read music better, look for different colours in harmony, and much more. I have designed a course that will bring students through the aspects of theory, notation, harmony, structure and form to help them become more fluent in reading, composing or performing.

Joel - The Hague, Netherlands62Fr

62FrPiano Lessons - All Levels - Classical, Pop, Improvisation and Composition

Trusted teacher: Start the new course learning to play piano! I am a professional classical pianist, accompanist, creator, and composer with a Bachelor's Degree from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and a Master's Degree from the Royal Conservatorium in the Hague. For 7 years now, I have been teaching students of all levels between 5 and 60 years old. Lessons are based on your level, interests, and goals. Together we can find out if you are keener on classical repertoire, or if you want to play your favorite pop music, some beautiful soundtrack from a movie you like or compose/improvise new pieces. With my experience in teaching diverse genres, I will help you explore the music that you like. The central pillars I always work with are technique and creativity, which are much more connected than you would expect! While we advance, I also introduce the basics (or more deeply, if you are interested) of music theory to learn to communicate with each other in musical terms (chords, keys, score reading, etc.). And above all, the goal is to enjoy and have fun!

Coline - Issy-les-Moulineaux, France40Fr

40FrHello ! Dynamic, passionate and motivated, I give flute lessons, composition in French or English.

Trusted teacher: I can give 2 different courses to choose from: transverse flute / musical composition I practiced flute lessons for 11 years and in May 2021 I graduated from the CEM (Certificate of Musical Studies) at the Conservatory of Issy Les Moulineaux. I also followed for 8 years a Musical Training (Solfège). These classical formations have since allowed me to practice my instrument in different styles of contemporary music and to be comfortable in front of an audience. My various artistic experiences: theater, dance allow me to associate the practice of the Flute with the learning of the control of one's body, one's breathing, one's musicality and one's self-confidence and the development of creativity with a passion for drawing. Apart from my flute skills, I also composed by ear with the help of my musical training courses using the MuseScore 3 software or also in the manner of the great composers: on paper. I want to organize these lessons according to the musical desires of the student, so that learning is the most fun and exciting for him/her.

Sebastian - Neuhausen, Switzerland132Fr

132FrMusic Composition, Music Theory, Solfege and Improvisation.

Trusted teacher: I specialized in contemporary music composition in Bucharest, Birmingham and Paris having finished with honors my Bachelor, my Master and my Doctorate degree in this field. I also have a pedagogical degree and 2 years of experience in which I taught music composition, musical forms, poliphony, orchestration, music theory and solfege at the National University of Music from Bucharest. In 2022 I finished a 2nd Master's Degree in Film Music Composition at the ZHdK. This class is for both beginners who want to compose music as a hobby and to aspiring professional composers. The main topic of my doctoral thesis was the compositional idea and the processes involved in the creative undertakings. How does one reach the final stage of a composition from just a few ideas? How can we improve this endeavour? What strategies and techniques are needed in order to do that? The class will be customized for each student so in order to achieve a certain objective in music composition the lessons can include elements of music theory, harmony, poliphony, orchestration, improvisation, music notation (Finale & Dorico) and music production (StudioOne). Although solfege and improvisation are extremely useful (I dare say even indispensable) for a professional composer, they can also be means to an end for passionate music lovers. Solfege and strategies that come with it can help your singing and music sight reading. And improvisation is such a fun and relaxing activity that I think everybody should do it!

Gosse - Amsterdam, Netherlands58Fr

58FrPiano lessons according to the principle: the best and fastest way to Rome!

Trusted teacher: 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!

Ciaran - Brighton, United Kingdom18Fr

18FrCours De Guitare En-Ligne / Online Guitar Lessons For Beginners

Trusted teacher: In these confusing times, you might be finding it difficult to keep your kids entertained all day, so if I can be of any help I would like to suggest online guitar lessons. I am a Music Production Student at Leeds College of Music and have been teaching guitar for over three years now. My class is focused on practical learning and having fun. I learnt to play guitar by simply playing it and I believe that is the best way of learning, especially for children as they won't want to pick up the instrument if they don't like what they're learning. I tailor my classes to the music the student likes as I have a strong knowledge of most modern music. I like to finish my classes by asking my students if there's a song they would like to learn next and I will focus our next lesson around that track.

Vinicius - Amsterdam, Netherlands24Fr

24FrBeginner, Intermediate and Advanced Guitar Lessons

Trusted teacher: Hello, my name is Vinicius, I am a Brazilian Biologist and I have a Master's degree on Neuroscience Research at VU Amsterdam. I have been playing guitar since I was 11 and I have been teaching the instrument for over a decade now. I believe that motivating the student and helping him to integrate the instrument into his daily routine is the most important role that a teacher can do. My methodology is the flipped-classroom and I use the Google Classroom platform: every week, I will write a study guide with details of what we discussed during class + references (videos/blogs/books). This can be used by the student to study carefully at their own pace. During our next class, we will discuss the points you had the most difficulty and advance your knowledge further. I can also record videos and write essays from scratch specifically for you, whenever the material is not available online. About me I learned to play the guitar on my own - later in life I had classical training at university (singing, piano and classical guitar). I play Fingerstyle guitar, popularized by artists like Andy McKee, Tommy Emmanuel and Antoine Dufour, which consists of playing melody, harmony and percussion at the same time. I have published an EP named "14th of August" with original fingerstyle compositions in 2020.

Piano Lessons - All Levels - Classical, Pop, Improvisation and Composition (The Hague)

Joel

My son just had his first piano lesson with Joel and he loved it. When the hour was finished my son felt a bit disappointed as he wanted to continue and said the class had gone by super fast. After Joel left our house my son told me he would really like to continue taking lessons with him as he felt he learned a lot and had a lot of fun. I personally liked Joel’s communication and professionalism when scheduling the class, and the planning of the curriculum going forward. I think my son will learn a lot from his classes with him.
