Graduated in Music - Having studied piano (classical) at the University of Évora (Portugal), Hochschule für Musik Karlsruhe (Germany) and at the Aquiles Delle Vigne International Music Academy. She is currently studying a Masters in Performance at LUCA School of Arts, Leuven, Belgium.
I have a lot of experience in teaching piano and music theory in different musical styles and theoretical/musical training from children to adults, in official conservatories, music schools and private lessons,

In my classes I try to share my musical knowledge, both practically and theoretically. The courses are aimed at those who want to have more direct contact with music, whether for the first time or not. I take great pleasure in teaching and I give great importance to each student. I like to choose repertoire that matches both student's musical tastes and technical work in need. I always try to encourage students and provide quality teaching.
In musical training courses, I help students at conservatories/academies and teach classes to students without any theoretical basis.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch!

I am passionate about teaching guitar! Over the last 10 years I have been teaching students from ages 7-70 from complete beginners to advanced players with one thing in common - their wish to play guitar more comfortably and have fun while doing it!

I am a classical guitarist with a background in pedagogy, psychology and physiotherapy, my approach - methodical.
While working on the things you want to improve and learn I will also help you develop a deep understanding of the theory and principles that music is built upon. Our lessons will be exploratory and imaginative whilst also underpinned by technical knowledge so that you can enjoy playing comfortably and without pain.

My aim is to get you to where you want to be playing guitar, whether that be for friends at New Year or on the stage at Carnegie Hall!

I give piano and music theory/ music writing (composition) classes in regions Brussels and Leuven.
I have studied in Italy (piano) and at Brussels Conservatoire (music writing).
I like sharing my artistic knowledge and experience with motivated students of all ages and varied backgrounds.
In my teaching method I try to focus on the strong points and qualities of the student in order to build up technical skills which will help the student to overcome difficulties in a simple and natural way.
It is crucial for me to make the student able to express their personality in an autonomous and creative way.

This lesson is especially for the hobby-musician (in the making). My goal is to teach the student how to play in playing the Saxophone, be it in classical music, pop, jazz, ... of my students, I expect them to have fun playing music and that they show it by doing their best without having to be a rut to play the instrument.

I am a flute player based in Leuven. I obtained my master degree in flute in September 2020 at LUCA School of Arts and I am currently beginning bachelor music therapy. In 2017 I obtained my diploma in Pedagogical Formation.

As a teacher I have taught flute in different schools and to students of any age. Due to my pedagogical studies in Dokuz Eylül University, I have full knowledge of training approaching to students in different age ranges. I welcome learners of all skill levels, from beginners who are completely new, to those with some childhood experience, to the advanced level players who need of fresh inspiration.
I believe that everyone has an ear for music to some degree and that anyone can learn how to play succesfully.
I can offer clearly structured lessons to students of any age, interested in classical music repertoire but also in other genres as pop.

The lessons can be conducted in Dutch, English or Turkish.

Piano lessons adapted to your taste and level. You tell us what you expect from the lessons so that I can give you optimal piano lessons.

For example: you want to learn to read and play piano pieces. I must also give you the relevant theory. It is your choice to study additional theory, but it is not necessary. My lessons are therefore efficiently oriented. As a student, you can ultimately choose which piano pieces we work on (it must first be approved by me), so that playing the piano remains fun and educational. I cover classical music, pop music, video games, movies, anime music, etc... so many genres!

Another example: you want to make a piano cover of an existing piece (e.g. pop music or movie music). I will give you the theory of chords and reading staves. This way you can get started quickly. Together we will practice enough so that you understand everything well! We can also improvise together on your piano.

Feel free to message us if you have any questions :)

I have already given private lessons to adults, teenagers and children both online and in person. Both options work great! We do this online via Skype or another app if desired. Physically we do it in Leuven city centre, where there is a handy large indoor bicycle shed.
Ideally I teach once a week, you then continue practicing on your piano at home towards the next lesson the following week. If you would like lessons every other week or lessons twice a week, that is also possible for me.

Why choose to learn to play the piano? It has been scientifically proven that playing an instrument makes someone smarter (good brain training). You can show your piano skills to others, but you can also make yourself happy and reward through your piano. I've heard from my friends that they regret not learning to play an instrument, hopefully you won't be like them...
You only Live one time! What are you waiting for?
I hope to see you then! ^_^

Since I was 4 years old, piano has taken a big place in my life and heart, because my father has taught me ever since.
I am extremely excited to share my passion with interested people, whatever their age!
I pay a lot of attention to the position at the piano, so that no injuries occur. I also talk a lot about musical lines and how to produce a good sound on the piano. If you have not taken solfège, I am very happy to help with that as well along with the piano study.
Playing the piano is very personal for everyone, both technically and musically. That is why I think it is very important to look for the best solutions and adapt to each individual student, so that he or she can create his or her own bond with music.
I am currently finishing my Masters with Jan Vermeulen at Luca School of Arts, Leuven.

Are you young or old, a beginner/intermediate/advanced musician and would you like to take violin and/or solfège lessons or tutoring? Then you've come to the right place!
My name is Lisa and I obtained a Master's degree for Violin in 2024 with Lilia Umnova at the conservatory LUCA School of Arts Campus Lemmens. Since September 2024 I have started a Master's degree for Chamber Music at the conservatory LUCA School of Arts Campus Lemmens, still in the class of Lilia Umnova.
I can easily teach in the Merchtem and Leuven region.
On my profile you can find more information about myself and how I work in the lessons.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to send us a message!

If you want to learn to play the clarinet, make further progress or learn solfège, you've come to the right place! I offer both solfège and clarinet lessons for beginners and more advanced students. I live in Leuven but I am available throughout Brussels and Leuven. Lessons are possible in Dutch, French or English.

If you take the time to learn the clarinette, read the progress and receive the course of the solfège, you will enjoy the end! You propose the course of solfège and clarinette for the debutants and the young people plus advances. Your habit in Louvain is always available in Brussels and Louvain. Les cours peuvent être dispensés en Dutch, en français ou en English.

Lessons are individually and carefully adapted to the student’s age, level, and desired outcome.
From the youngest students, to whom the music and playing the basics are served playfully based on making the music an important part of their development to advanced students with whom we can refine all the musical details and prepare for professional careers.

Are you a beginner who has started to learn guitar on his own, and can't see the trees for the wood anymore? Or do you already have some experience and want to learn something new? Then you've come to the right place!

About myself:
I have been playing both guitar and bass guitar for 8 years. I also have a solid foundation in music theory. I took lessons with Kristof Neyens (rock school leuven) for several years, and now I would like to share my experience.

Classes:
Depending on your preference, we can draw up a lesson plan together with individual assignments. I also try to work as much as possible with the genres that you like to listen to yourself, this is of course more motivating (after all, you don't want to try to teach Mozart to a Metal fan ;))

My approach is certainly not like that of the 'music theory' at the academy. From your first lesson you will immediately start playing songs. I only use music theory if it is really necessary or if you would like to delve into it.

Practical:
I follow distance education so I can actually go at any time of the week, online lessons are also a possibility.

If you contact me and tell me which times suit you, we can certainly find a fixed time together!

Hey!

Would you like to learn to play that one track (or several tracks) from Coldplay, John Legend, Elton John, .. on the piano, but you don't know where to start?

Or would you like to learn how to produce, mix and master with Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Garageband, Logic Pro X, .. to create your own tracks?

Or would you like to learn how a synthesizer works and how you can make sounds with it?

I can help you! I've been playing piano for about 15 years now after studying Pop & Jazz, and I've performed in a variety of genres. I also have a diploma in Electronic Music Production from Point Blank Music School, and I'm currently working as a keyboardist and producer for the pop group. I primarily play pop music, but we can certainly explore other genres as well.

For piano lessons, I recommend 30 minutes so we can cover new topics each lesson, which you can then practice at home. For producing/mixing, 60 minutes is more suitable if you want to master it faster, but you can certainly learn it in 30 minutes per lesson.

Interested? Feel free to contact me, and we'll schedule a time. I offer lessons both at home in Haacht and on-site in the Leuven area (or online).
