Extra informatie

You will need a guitar. For beginners I recommend a nylon string classical guitar, nothing too expensive. I try to make the lessons fun, I pick songs which develop technique. I like to teach classical because it is a good basis for other styles. For more advanced students we look at songs that you like to play and try to master them. For improvisation, I like to pick jazz standards and solo over them

Over

I began learning classical guitar while at school. I reached grade 5. In my teens I became interested in rock guitar and joined a few bands. After seeing Jeff Beck play in Sydney I became interest in jazz fusion and then jazz. Due to the large number of guitarists in Sydney I took up the piano reaching grade 4 in classical piano. I started playing in bands as a keyboard player. Now I concentrate on classical and jazz from my new home in the Netherlands

I teach electric and acoustic guitar in many guitar based genres of music, including every type of rock music and pop music, blues and funk, etc. Lessons I offer are tailored to the specific needs and abilities of each individual student. If you are a beginner and don't have all the equipment, don't worry, I own several guitars, two guitar amplifiers and many effect pedals, so even if you don't have all the equipment yourself we can have a fully productive lesson at my home.
I have almost 20 years of experience in playing the guitar and great knowledge of the specifics of guitar playing in each individual genre that I am teaching. Whatever you wish to play, you will be able to master during lessons with me.

In our music lessons, together we find small goals connected to our daily lives. The goals can be different for everyone, but we will think our music making beyond our lessons rooms - it will boosts your motivations! You can expect a lot imageries and creativity in our lessons; it not only make us more musical, but it helps our motor skills as well. You will learn different styles, technique, self expression, and skills to make music together. A bit of music theory and solfege will always be a part of our lessons, and if you want to have more emphasis on them, we can do that, too. You can always bring them if you find a nice piece that you want to learn.

You will have occasional performance opportunities ensemble opportunities as well.

I welcome students of all ages, from young beginners to adults who want to expand their musical horizons. My teaching philosophy is rooted in building a strong foundation in classical guitar, with special attention to correct posture and technique for younger learners. I believe that early development of good habits sets the stage for a lifetime of healthy playing.

Each student’s learning style and goals are unique, and my lessons reflect that. For adults or more experienced students, I offer flexible lesson plans tailored to your individual interests—whether it’s mastering classical repertoire, improving technique, or exploring other genres. My aim is to make each lesson engaging, enjoyable, and directly aligned with what you hope to achieve.

For those interested in formal qualifications, I offer preparation for music grade exams through internationally recognised boards such as Trinity College London, ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music), and the International School of Musicians. These exams are excellent milestones for students looking to build confidence, set goals, and track their progress in a structured way.

Let’s work together to unlock your potential and find the joy in making music!

I am a professional classical guitarist and lutenist with many years of teaching experience. I tailor lessons to my students' needs and interests. This may mean training a young classical guitarist for a professional career, teaching a beginner to play his or her favorite pop song, or anything in between! Learning to play the lute, mandolin, or ukulele are other possibilities, or perhaps improving one's knowledge of music theory. I have a background in electric guitar, electric bass, and traditional Irish music. Whatever the style or instrument, I always strive to impart or reinforce the fundamentals of technique and musicianship.

Guitar for beginners. This is the course where you learn the basic guitar skills. I teach electric, classical and acoustic (folk, flatpicking) guitars, you can learn a mix of these similar yet very specific techniques or focus on the one of your preference. In electric and acoustic guitars the first challenges are pick control, hand coordination and left hand positions (and shifting them). With classical guitar the goal will be using the right hand fingers independently, including the thumb for the bass notes and the left hand will have similar challenges to the other guitars. In classical guitar we will be playing polyphonic pieces (several voices) more often, in electric we’ll focus on chords, riffs and solos and with the acoustic we’ll play also chords with different strumming patterns, melodies, solos and lots of flatpicking exercises.

Intermediate to advanced levels. If you want to take your guitar playing more seriously, this is the course for you. After having some control over the basic guitar techniques you may want to take it a little further, improvising, building your own chord progressions and solos and having a next level technique to improve your playing. In Guitar 2 we’ll work with scales, arpeggios, improvising, different picking techniques, more sophisticated harmonies, new chord voicings and tips to play in a group context. We will play blues, jazz and more advanced rock solos and riffs to help you build a strong and confident musical language.

One of the things I’ve been doing over the years is helping candidates to University music courses to get ready for their admission exams and getting the skills needed to begin this new step of their lives successfully. That’s something I really like to do.

I'm Danilo, an italian guitarist trained in Jazz music at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague.
After more than 13 years of experience on the guitar I can confidently say I can transmit all I learned on the instrument to students of all different ages and levels.
I dedicated most of my time on the instrument in overcoming struggles and finding tactics to correct bad habits and learning effectively.
Together we can explore secrets and tips for an healthy guitar practice routine, improve your technique and ear training abilities with direct and fun exercises.
Wether you are 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 was the most effective way I encountered to get better faster, so I advise it to all the guitar and music lovers out there.

You want to be the person who can just pick-up a guitar and play a song everyone can sing along to?
Do you want to be able to play (and sing) a song after hearing it once or twice?
Impress your friends or your lover by playing their favorite songs.

I teach you:
- How to hold and play the guitar
- How to play your favorite songs
- The skills to learn guitar on your own
- How to warm up (playing guitar or singing)
- Breathing and singing exercises to improve your singing

I might not be able to turn you into a pro. But I'll teach you the first steps to getting there yourself!

A bit about me:
I study for music therapist, so I know how to engage in converstation. If you have special needs, I know how to respect those and teach you how to deal with them (musically)

My goal is to do this outside of my school hours, so I'm pretty flexible when it comes to weekends and evenings as wel!

I'm a spiritual person; that means I'm also open for your religion (if you have one) ;)
I'm 24 years old with an obvious passion for music. Hit me up if you have any questions.

If you need help finding your first guitar I can advise you on that. Let's talk about your budget and options and we will settle on an agreement for the price of my advise.

Students have different aspirations and needs, but in my lessons we can focus on rhythmic variation, tempo, comping, improvisation, ear training, chords, phrasing, articulation, expression - all while learning repertoire. That is how it all comes together, therefore I encourage my students to learn their favourite songs and also repertoire that will strengthen less strong areas of their playing. This means if you want to learn how to play pocket we focus on funk rhythms, if you want to learn how to play straight groove we focus on bossa or latin etc.

With a Bachelor in Jazz Guitar in the pocket - that’s what I mostly play, we can dig into chord melody, single line playing, repertoire and comping in a variety of styles within the jazz idiom.

The first lesson will be a checkup where you are as a student in your musical development, thereafter I will ask about your goals and aspirations and what you’re currently doing to reach them. My role is to oversee this process and share what has helped me in my musical development. I believe instrument lessons need to be practical and be based off concrete exercises that will help you reach the next level. For something to manifest into your playing you have to first get whatever you’re learning into your muscle memory - practice slowly with metronome, continuous repetition over a period of time, then the brain have a greater chance of obtaining the skill. Second step is to gradually increase the tempo and play with a good time feel, by doing this you will have what you’ve learnt in your hands. There are no shortcuts when learning a skill, you simply cannot buy it - you have to earn it!
