Piano lessons in Amsterdam at home by an experienced piano teacher - also possible for lessons in music production

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hey! My name is Daan and I am a keyboard player, producer and songwriter and I am happy to teach piano at your home in Amsterdam.

I graduated from the Conservatory of Amsterdam pop department and am also very active in bands (as a keyboardist, singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer) and as a producer/songwriter in various genres.

As a teacher, I am mainly concerned with what the student wants to achieve and what can be gotten out of the student. Do you want to learn that one new song by Billie Eilish, or an advanced piece by Stevie Wonder; I can always help you. The great thing about music is that you can learn and perform it at all kinds of levels. My job is to find the right level for the right student, so that progress can be made at the same time as there is fun during the lessons.

In addition, I find it important that my students not only play the piano, but also understand the music and build up a knowledge of the music theory behind the pieces. This has helped me a lot to quickly make big steps as a musician.

You can also contact me if you write songs yourself and maybe even produce them that you want to take to a higher level. I can give you all kinds of tips to get the best out of your own compositions through my experience as a songwriter/producer.

I hope to see you soon!

About Me

Hey! My name is Daan. I’m a keyboardist, producer, and songwriter, and I offer fun and engaging piano lessons at your home in Amsterdam.

I graduated from the Pop Department at the Conservatory of Amsterdam and have been actively involved in various bands (as a keyboardist, singer, guitarist, bassist, and drummer), as well as working as a producer/songwriter across multiple genres.

As a teacher, I focus on what the student wants to achieve and how to bring out the best in them. Whether you want to learn that new Billie Eilish song or tackle an advanced Stevie Wonder piece—I can help you move forward. The great thing about music is that you can learn and perform it at any level. My job is to find the right match between each student and the right level, so that we can make progress while also keeping the lessons fun and inspiring.

I also believe it’s important that my students don’t just play the piano, but truly understand the music and develop a solid foundation in music theory. That’s something that really helped me grow quickly as a musician.

If you’re writing your own songs or producing your own music, I can also help you take your work to the next level. I’d love to share tips and guidance based on my experience as a songwriter and producer to help you get the most out of your original material.

Curious about trying a lesson?
I hope to meet you soon!

REVIEWS

Janneke:
“Daan teaches our three children (ages 6, 8, and 10). He adapts wonderfully to their different levels and really manages to inspire them with his patience and empathy. By letting them play songs they choose and enjoy themselves, they’re playing on their own every day! I wish I had such a passionate piano teacher when I was young.”

Mees:
“I’ve been taking lessons with Daan for almost two months now and have already learned so much. With Daan, I truly feel like I can learn anything related to music—whether it's music production or piano playing. The sky’s the limit!”

Jacco:
“To us, Daan represents making music in the broadest sense of the word. For our 11-year-old son, the piano is the central instrument, and with Daan’s teaching style, doors are opening that would stay closed with traditional lessons. Daan explains clearly, is patient, and inspires. That’s exactly what our son needs.”

Tessa:
“I’ve been taking piano lessons with Daan for 3 years now and I’m very happy! Thanks to Daan’s patience and enthusiasm, I progressed quickly as a beginner and was soon able to play my favorite songs. I always feel comfortable with him and would definitely recommend him if you want to learn piano at your own pace without only relying on standard lesson books.”

Education

I graduated from the Conservatory of Amsterdam with a focus on pop music, specializing in keys, bass, guitar, drums, songwriting, and music production. Before that, I completed the preparatory program at the Dutch School of Popular Music.

Experience / Qualifications

I’ve been teaching piano for over 10 years and also have experience teaching music production and songwriting. I’ve gained this teaching experience at music schools such as the Dutch School of Popular Music (DSOPM), Muziekcentrum Logblock, and Muziekschool Amsterdam-Noord, as well as through private piano lessons at students’ homes.

Thanks to this experience, I’m able to quickly get a clear understanding of what a student wants to achieve and how I can best help them reach their goals. I also work well with children and stay up to date with the latest musical trends.

Osian
Cello, singing and theory lessons from bilingual Welsh and English speaker
Hi my name is Osian and I’m a cellist from South Wales. I’ve taught children of many ages and standards and I really feel privileged to be a part of someone’s musical and personal development. Music lessons can be a way of reaching the concert platform or it could be a way of expressing yourself and being creative, wether it’s a career path or not. I grew up playing and singing where my first priority was to fall in love with music and learn to perform it to the best standard that I could do and that’s what I’d like to encourage my students to aim for too. I’m a BMus Hons Scholar from The Royal Academy of Music and I’m not studying at a masters lever at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

Teis
Learn guitar: What, how and why - by an experienced teacher and active professional musician
My name is Teis. I am a Danish guitarist trained in Jazz music at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and USC Thornton School of Music (Los Angeles). I have played since age 7, studied since age 13, and played professionally since age 18. I work professionally as a band leader, composer, and side person. After around 25 years of experience on the guitar, I can confidently say that I am equipped to share the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. In all honesty: I have never found myself to be particularly "talented". But I am a hard worker. I truly believe that talent is not something you are born with, but something you can develop and grow. Together we will explore secrets and tips for a healthy guitar routine. We will improve your technique and ear training abilities with direct and fun exercises. Whether you are just a beginner or an intermediate/advanced guitarist, we can explore the instrument and all its possibilities. Practicing and playing with a teacher in a one-on-one situation is the most effective way to get better faster, and I advise it to all the guitar and music lovers out there. In my guitar course, we start from where you are at and set a goal fitting to what you want to achieve. For example, our focus could be a.o.: Fingerpicking Soloing Accompanying yourself Songwriting Two ways to go about it; Single lesson: We go from where you are at the moment, and I help you move forward. 5 or 10 lesson bundle: I will make a detailed plan for you and we will conclude the lessons with a performance of some sort. I will help you elevate and broaden your skill set, in your preferred style, but also ear training and theory. We will build a sustainable practice routine together, and you will get access to a library of practice play-alongs and manuals, that you can use to build a solid platform as a musician! Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hello there! My name is Antek and i'm a cellist and composer who graduated from Conservatorium van Amsterdam. As a cellist I've had the pleasure and honour of collaborating with renowned artists such as Hans Zimmer, being part of his 2022 European Tour Orchestra, touring over 15 countries and playing in locations such as London's O2 Arena or Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. I am now mainly active as a performer of contemporary/experimental music, as well as classical music, freelancing in various orchestras in the Netherlands, having played in venues such as Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, Concertgebouw or TivoliVredenburg. I offer cello lessons, regardless of the level - whether you are a curious beginner or more advanced player, i'm happy to collaborate and share my knowledge and experience with you, as well as inspire your creativity regarding both playing the right notes, and making artistic choices. I can also help you prepare for conservatory entrance exams by providing Solfege, Ear-training and General Music Theory lessons. As a composer, I'm currently pursuing a degree at Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp. I can help you work on your ideas, and how to write them down, to sound exactly how you want them to sound. That includes tutorials on engraving rules, orchestration, working in DAWs (Ableton) and using sheet music software (Sibelius, MuseScore), as well as building your craft and workflow. I'm experienced in writing both instrumental and electronic music, as well as performance art, live electronics and multidisciplinary projects. I have also collaborated with institutions like National Polish Radio or CelloWercken Festival Zutphen. I hope to hear back from you soon and I'm looking forward to start working on your musical journey! Peace and Love Antek

Tullia
Piano lessons with experienced teacher - graduated Pianist.
My teaching method developed during 20 years of experience and thanks to my studies of Music Pedagogy and Piano Teaching during my Master's in Piano at Livorno's Conservatory. I am currently a piano teacher in a British School and I prepared several students for ABRSM and Trinity College exams. As a private piano teacher, I work preferably in my studio, on a beautiful grand piano Yamaha, but, if not too far, I am also available for lessons at the student's house. My teaching is adapted to the skills and goals of each student. With beginning children, I aim at full musical development of the student (not just playing notes, but feeling the rhythm, singing, and expressing emotions through free improvisation); technically I don't work only at the finger position, but at the organic interaction arm-wrist-fingers, through simple exercises. With adult or advanced students, I observe them, to suggest which type of repertory to work together, and which aspects of the technique might still need improvement. I teach classically, through the learning of notes, harmony, and written music, but I teach also how to play songs with only chord symbols, and blues improvisation at a basic level. Both with children and adults I aim at creating a joyful experience during the lesson, in which focus is gained in a playful way, finding each time the best practicing solutions to technical and musical difficulties. In this way, practicing at home becomes not another heavy duty to add to an already busy schedule, but repeating a creative, searching experience, that is never the same. Books: the use of a method is often suggested in the first years. Later I advice classical pieces to be studied. Also, Pop or Rock songs that the student would like to perform are well accepted, if I think the student can afford them.

Bass and Double Bass Lessons! Let's play some music!
Does it happen to you too? You're listening to the music and... You Just Can't Take your Focus Off the lower tones, the foundation of the song, The Bass. Let me tell you something: if you do that it means that... You're already Learning! Whether you're listening to pop, rock, r'n'b, jazz, blues, you name it, the Bass is always there to work as the foundation on which the Band can build on. I can guide your curiosity through the discovery of the various bass techniques, we can work together using the music of the artists you love to walk our way in the realm of the Low Tones. Didn't you always want to meet up with those friends of yours and play those songs you all love? That amazing bass riff from Muse, that lovely song from Coldplay or super cool funky Bruno Mars. Or maybe you dream of the warm cuddly sound of the double bass, playing with the bow and feel the vibration of the Wood. Playing some Jazz, along with Miles Davis or Wayne Shorter. With almost 20 years of experience in the low tones world I can guide you in the study of electric bass and double bass. I'm an active performer and touring musician, as well as a master graduated Bass player. (Conservatorium van Amsterdam) We will work together to find what best suites you. Through the music that you love we'll find the right path to discover the world of the Bass. P.S.: (For fearless only) I will teach also the secret art of: “Riding a bike while carrying your bass without getting killed”.

Hi, I'm Federica, I am Italian, and I am a Jazz piano player and singer. I studied at the Royal Conservatory of the Hague and I just completed a master in Vocals and Piano at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. I give Jazz/Pop/Classical Piano lessons but my main goal is to try to give the student a general understanding of the music to approach every style and to have fun with music! I love to work with children, I like to teach them good values like patience, self-confidence, trust, communication, and collaboration, all through music. That's what I learn every day by studying music and that's what I would like to transfer to my students. I've been told that If you have music in your life, you can't be a bad person. I believe in it. I offer live and online lessons: Piano Singing Ear Training Technique Improvisation Repertoire Music Theory

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 ♥️
