Viool/Altviool (violin/ viola) en Muzikaliteit (musicianship) lessen in Houten - alle leeftijden! (Dutch/English)

Àpd 58.99 $ /h

Let’s begin your musical journey! Perhaps this is the first time you are playing an instrument? Or you are picking it up having played it years ago. Perhaps you have a dream of where or what you would like to play...or want to improve specific skills to simply enjoy playing more.

My aim is to create a path with you (or your child), to discover and develop ways to achieve your own musical goals.

I offer 30-minute instrumental lessons – these are aimed at beginner students to build stamina, posture and basic playing techniques.
You can combine this with an additional 30 minutes of musicianship, this is for children to build a solid foundation of musical skills –including rhythm, note reading and pitch, composition, tempo and more. Group lessons are possible for beginner players, these can be a fun and motivating way of learning together for students, however these would be regularly reviewed to ensure learning needs of each student are met.

I would recommend 60-minute lessons for intermediate student/adult students – this is to work on more complex musical skills, exercises and pieces.

Goals for lessons:
Making music from day 1
Exploring and refining the craft of playing the instrument
Setting reachable goals to build stamina, technique and musicianship
Developing ‘inner ear’ with aural exercises
Learning musical notation/composition
Casual performance opportunities solo or in a group (if desired)
Most importantly...having fun!

About me...
I have worked in instrument music education at schools, academies and privately for the last 12 years, whilst playing professionally as a freelance violin/viola player and conductor with orchestras, musicals and in community music settings in England. I thoroughly enjoy teaching, and base my approach on the needs of the student, using experience in different schools of music teaching - including traditional classical Suzuki and Kodaly principles to more modern day improvisation focussed educators such as Christian Howes and Bobby McFerrin.

Lessons available in English and Dutch.

Do get in touch if you have any questions!

Informations supplémentaires

Bring your instrument, accessories, pencil, notebook and lesson material. I can recommend instrument sizes and material if unsure.

Dear violin lovers! I'm a violin teacher for 10 years now, I have been teaching in Portugal and the Netherlands. My lessons can be given in English, Portuguese, French or Spanish.

Playing the violin is my passion, especially when I can pass on my knowledge and love for music to my students of all ages and levels.

I work as a team with you, finding the right method that fit your needs. What is important for me is to work on a good connection with the instrument and find the right basis for the start of your violin playing.
In my violin lessons, I would like also to share with you my musical knowledge, show you recordings of great violin players, prepare with you pieces that you always wanted to play and give you the tools so you can achieve your goals in music. I like to share the general knowledge of violin playing as well as basic and intermediate music theory lessons so you can enter in the world of music, but especially to have fun!!

My lessons can be shared between violin and theory together depending on what you are looking for.

The lessons will be at my house if you are in need of an instrument we can find one for you!

I did my Bachelor at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam with the teachers Maria Milstein and Eliot Lawson and completed my Masters in Performance degree with excellency as well in Amsterdam under the guidance of Liviu Prunaru and Mathieu van Bellen while studying baroque violin with Shunske Sato.

I have my own violin class in Amsterdam, and I love teaching.

I look forward to sharing this adventure with you!
Hope to hear from you!

Let's explore together the music of the baroque era! Get to know the violin and the viola in their baroque setting- experiment with features such as gut strings and historical bows. The lessons are adapted to your wishes and needs: a beginner will have different goals than an experienced player. There is wealth of material for all levels and interests, let's find out together what's the best for you!
The core of the lesson is always the expression of music! We will work through building technique, grasping theoretical knowledge, and learning about the historical context. And if all that sounds a bit serious, let's not forget that the best way to learning is playfulness and a will to experiment!

About the lesson:

Specialized in jazz classes at least at all levels – with absolute beginners at the top of the speakers.

From 10 days to 10 days, you will be able to listen to your music via private channel without listening to music. Since March 2024 I teach at De Leerorkest in Amsterdam and De Gooische Muziekschool.

My lessons are based on fun, patience and attentive listening. I tailor each lesson to the student’s personal goals and interests – whether that’s classical music, folk music or improvisation. If you listen to some of the music you have inspired, you will be able to put the structure into effect.

Music theory doesn’t have to feel dry or overwhelming, in fact, it can be one of the most exciting parts of learning music when it’s taught in a way that makes sense to you! My theory lessons are flexible, down-to-earth, and designed to support your unique musical journey, no matter your level.

Whether you’re just starting out and want to learn the basics, or you’ve been studying music for years and want to dive into more advanced topics, I’ll tailor each lesson to your goals and interests. We can cover anything from reading music and understanding keys and chords, to harmony, form, analysis, and even how theory connects to the music you’re playing, writing, or listening to.

My goal is to make theory feel useful, musical, and even fun, because it really is when approached in the right way.
These lessons are great for all ages and backgrounds, whether you're preparing for exams, supporting your instrument studies, writing your own music, or just curious to learn more about how music works.
