Electric Guitar Lessons / Acoustic Guitar Lessons / Music Theory Lessons
I'm a 30-year old guitarist and composer based in Den Haag, teaching electric and acoustic guitar, in combination with music theory (if that is of interest to the student). I teach in English or in Greek. I am half Greek and half Scottish and I have been living in the Netherlands for the last 6 years.
I offer lessons in all styles, to all age groups, and for any experience level (ranging from students who have never touched a guitar before, up to advanced players who are looking for new challenges).
Face to face lessons are preferable, but I also teach online.
I am a patient and open minded teacher, and my desire is to help you learn what you want to learn, and make sure you have fun with playing the guitar and nurture your curiosity and excitement about the world of music creation !
My Credentials:
I hold a Bachelors of Music degree from Birmingham Conservatoire (UK), and a Masters of Music from The Hague Royal Conservatory. My experience as a guitarist ranges from classical guitar studies, to playing electric guitar in rock bands, as well as experience as an improviser, performer of notated contemporary classical compositions, creator and performer of ambient and electronic music. I also am very experienced in ambient and electronic-influenced guitar music, which has given me an in depth knowledge also of the guitar in combination with technology such as guitar effects, computer software and multichannel setups which expand the audio palette of the guitar. I have written songs, I have written orchestra pieces, I have worked as a DIY home producer, I have released albums, and I've performed in concert halls, rock venues, squats and festivals. I even some experience in beat-making.
My music has been performed in and has taken me to several countries, including Portugal, The Czech Republic, The U.S.A., Canada, Korea, Greece, The U.K., The Netherlands.
My Teaching style:
My emphasis is to teach you based on your interests and your needs. The lessons are based around each individual student. You bring me the music you like and the things you want to learn, and I build my lessons around that.
I've taught students everything from post-rock, to metal, to K-Pop to Nepalese songs... This way the student gets to explore music on their terms, and not based on a pre-decided set of songs or exercises. Alongside this I bring exercises and other songs that help build around the skills we learn through your songs, and help you develop the techniques needed for you to learn to play the music you love. Whatever music excites you I encourage you to bring it to our lesson, as this also gives me a chance to discover some new music !
What's more, depending on your interest, we can also explore music theory, ideas on composition and songwriting, even the basics of how to record your own songs at home.
For experienced players:
If you are an experienced player looking for new challenges and new perspectives, my wide ranging knowledge of music in a large spectrum of music will help you push your playing and knowledge of music into new worlds !
Topics of our more advanced lessons could include: in depth exploration of the possibilities of guitar pedals, using Ableton live with the electric guitar, reading scores, writing scores, exploring extended guitar techniques, using multi-amp setups, recording your own songs, playing contemporary classical works that include the electric guitar, exploring finger picking, using alternative guitar tunings, going deeper into music theory, exploring genres you haven't heard of (ranging from classical, to experimental, to free jazz, to electronic music)
I can teach you at your home, or we can do lessons at my studio space at the Annastate Studio Complex
-- Annastate a creative space that is made up of several artist ateliers spread across its large building. I have a space here where I work on my music and practise, and it is an environment that is surrounded by creative people and works of art that are being created here all the time.

About Me
- I am a composer and guitar player currently based in Den Haag. I grew up in Greece to a Greek father and Scottish mother, and I have also lived in the UK and the U.S.A. (in the state of Vermont). I have been living in Holland for the last 4 years.- My music covers a large range:
----- from playing in alt rock/punky bands such as Quaich --
----- and Trends&Revolts ------
---- to ambient / drone / experimental projects such as Flowers/Ghosts&Echoes ----
----- as well as contemporary classical compositions -----
---- and many more collaborations including with Squee!Collective ------
----- with violinist Laura Sophie ------
----- with Trompo ensemble -----
---- with percussionist Gabriele Segantini -----
- I currently have two albums out which I have co-released with the Polyscope music community, and my music has been featured in concerts and festivals in The Netherlands, The United Kingdom, Greece, Korea, The U.S.A.
- Teaching allows me to explore music and the guitar through the eyes of my students. Learning to find a student's interests and teach through what they enjoy, while bringing my own experience and interests to the table as well, has always brought the best results and made the teaching experience the most beneficial for the students.
- I love when the student becomes excited and fascinated in the lessons, and I can see the student develop further this way and get joy from their exploration of music
- I have moved between several different countries and explored many different types of music-making. This allows me to bring a wide range of experiences to the lessons, outside of just teaching a single topic from a single perspective. As today's world is one where culture and music are made up of many influences from many different places, I find this to be the most healthy approach to teaching, and one which my most inspiring teachers always brought to me when I was a student.

Danilo
Jazz and Pop Guitar/preparation for conservatories
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.

Michele
Classical Guitar and Music Theory lessons for all levels and ages.
I am Michele, a professional musican with a Classical Guitar Master degree and I give guitar and music theory lessons for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.
I believe that studying classical guitar is one of the best ways to acquire technique (such as arpeggiated, scales, good left hand position, rasgueado ect ...), musicality and expression which can later be exploited to play whatever you want, including other musical genres.
I usually aim at the student's acquisition of basic knowledge relating to the instrument and music theory and then follow a path that best suits the characteristics, tastes and objectives of each one. Each lesson is unique, adapted to the student's personality.
I am also available for the preparation of the entrance exams to the guitar courses (preparatory courses, Bachelor, Master) of the Conservatory.
Caleb
Trumpet Lessons and Music Coaching (all ages and levels)
Welcome! My name is Caleb and I look forward to working together in lessons online or at your home around The Hague!
My teaching is customized to support each student's musical goals. Prior to moving to The Hague, I spent five years teaching group and private lessons for a variety of arts education organizations in Philadelphia (USA). In each space, I create safe and fun learning environments for students by maintaining a consistently supportive demeanor and by using positive reinforcement to encourage student behavior and growth. I’m patient, empathetic, and maintain a firm belief in all students’ capacity for improvement and success.
In the lessons, we will focus on creating a beautiful, efficient, and flexible sound through various exercises and musical pieces. I will facilitate exploration that leads students to learn about effective learning habits and to be able to self-identify what they can do to improve. This helps students become their own teachers – an essential skill for improving in music, and also relevant in many other areas in life.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to meeting you!
Caleb

Brazilian guitar - The Right hand approach of Baden Powell and Toquinho (SHORT-TERM lessons)
Baden Powell and Toquinho are two of the most important guitar legends in the Brazilian music history.
Together with Vinicius de Moraes, Tom Jobim, João Gilberto, Edu Lobo, Chico Buarque, João Bosco, Elis Regina, etc. They made the history of Brazilian music.
In this short-term lesson,
I will focus on the right hand approach of the great Baden Powell and Toquinho.
Baden's right hand technique has always been discussed that it was too mysterious.
If you go on YouTube to check any Cover version or even Transcription of his tunes, you will never see someone who can reproduce his technique. It's simply because it is very complicated if you don't know the principle.
By directly studying from Baden's only student, his son - the great Marcel Powell. I'm approved by Marcel, and would love to share his father approach.
Toquinho right hand technique for comping
After the death of Vinicius de Moares, Toquinho gradually changed the way of his accompanying into a style which involved an exclusive approach of one finger strumming.
It has become almost the only approach he is using nowadays. It is also a very exclusive technique you rarely see other use except Toquinho.
*Note that. There are many other ways to play Brazilian music.
