Creative guitar lessons for beginners and intermediate
Hey peeps! I love to give guitar lessons in a relaxed mood that will not put pressure on you, only giving you feedbacks that will improve your practice. The first lessons will generally consist of covering the basics by learning simple songs. Depending on how it goes, we will go straight into learning songs that you want to play, where you will learn even more! I can teach you how to play across several appointments during the week so you'll learn faster and enjoy playing straight from the beginning :) Keep growing ♥️

Danny
Guitar Lessons from complete beginner to experienced in the comfort of your own home !
With over 30 years as a professional musician and 25 as a teacher, I am able to tailor my lessons to my students' needs. I do not follow a strict path, each student has different wishes and needs so it's my job to interpret them accordingly. I travel to my students in Amsterdam, this is proven to make people more relaxed and better able to focus on the lessons. I have a long and varied history as a musician and composer, from playing sold-out concert halls to composing music for films and television. From complete beginners to more advanced players I will get you either started or help you advance your playing and musicality to the next level. Lessons in both Dutch and English ( I am English ).

Solfège & Hearing Training - Music Theory Preparation Courses
Solfège is one of these indispensable tools that contributes to the development of musical hearing. With that a basis can be formed for the general musical understanding. Through my role as a student assistant of various theory subjects (including solfège) at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, I have had the opportunity to teach students with many different ages and backgrounds. My approach: • The lessons are always in line with the environment and the theoretical knowledge that the student already has. • Creative thinking is used in the lessons. This is done, for example, by improvising melodies or coming up with a second voice based on feeling. • I also encourage critical thinking and listening. I do this by not giving too much pre-chewed information, but by an experiential approach. • In practice I use different solfège methods (tonic sol-fa, or using numbers in a scale). My experience has shown that not every system is ideal for everyone. That is why I am flexible in my approach and I will always coordinate this on my students.

Marine
(FRENCH) Piano lessons for beginners – children and adults – musical awakening through the ear, pop culture and the pleasure of playing
Hello everyone, My name is Marine, I'm 28 years old and I've been playing the piano since I was 12. A graduate of the Chantilly Departmental Conservatory in France (training obtained alongside my baccalaureate), I also studied jazz for two years in a specialized school, then in jazz piano classes at the conservatory. My musical approach is therefore rich, lively and open, far from rigid classical patterns. ⸻ 🎯 For whom? • Children from 5-6 years old, teenagers and adult beginners • No prior knowledge required • Ideal for those who want to discover the piano while having fun, without any professional objectives ⸻ 🌟 My teaching methods The idea is not to learn the piano as a constraint, but to experience it as a pleasure, a way of expressing yourself and discovering your own musicality. ✅ Method without traditional music theory: we work by ear, drawing inspiration from videos (such as “synthesia”), well-known songs and film music. ✅ Progressive but natural learning: we start with popular music (cartoons, pop culture, film music – Disney, Harry Potter, etc.) ✅ Objective: to develop listening, musical sensitivity, interpretation, creativity, and the pleasure of playing ✅ Gentle introduction to improvisation and the first elements of jazz, if the student is curious. ⸻ 🎶 Why me? • Experience with children and adolescents (I have already helped several young people learn their favorite music) • Lessons adapted to each student: I attach great importance to their musical tastes, their desires, their pace • Caring, encouraging approach focused on the enjoyment of music • I am French-speaking, but I can also adapt to an international audience if necessary. ⸻ 📍 Where? • At home (Amsterdam, De Pijp) ⸻ ✨ If your child dreams of playing Let It Go, Harry Potter or The Lion King on the piano, or if you yourself finally want to dare to put your hands on a keyboard, I would be delighted to accompany you on this musical adventure.

Composition Lesson for children and adults in Amstrdam
Composition lessons are for anyone who wishes to compose music, for any instrument, emsemble and/or electronics music. My teaching method combines various approaches and styles, supporting practice with theoretical knowledge, and most important developing creativity and helping the student in making their imagionary visions come real. For each student a different palate of tools is offered, according to the student's musical wishes and ambitions. I teach the basis of western-music composition - theory, harmony, counterpoint, score-reading, solfege, rhythm, analysis and more. Further I suggest broad overview of world, jazz, pop, new/contemporary music, various styles in electronic music (popular and experimental), improvisatory compositions, graphic notation, text and game pieces, music for theater, film and dance and interdicsiplinary works which combine music with other art fields.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I 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)

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 lessons
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.

CLASSICAL, JAZZ/ MODERN PIANO AND RHYTHM COMPLEXITY
The 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.

Sergio
Music History Lessons Tailored to All Needs and Interests
My 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.
