Piano lessons for beginners and intermediate students (technic, theory, Jazz, classical, bossa nova...)

Von 70.6 $ /Std

Music is in our everyday life, whether we realise it or not. To go into music and start learning it is as natural as learning how to walk, cycle, or even breathe! Whichever the instrument, It is one of the most beautiful experiences we can give ourselves, bound to take us to new and undiscovered places.

My name is João, I'm from Portugal, I'm 27 years of age, and I have a bachelor in jazz from the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. I've been playing piano all my life, and can't wait to share what I've learned with you!

I teach piano to all ages from beginner to intermediate. Although I have a program, I will let you create your own path, taking into account the several landmarks I create according to your level and needs. Teaching is all about the individuality of each person I work with, and as a student myself, I find it to be one of the most important points in teaching.

I focus mainly on jazz, but since music theory and harmony touch all kinds of music, I am open to the suggestions you bring into class. The lessons will focus on learning music through listening, as well as introducing the student to music theory, and reading scores. Whether you like Pop, Jazz, Bossa Nova, or Classical, all music comes from the same place, so let's dive in!

In my experience it is important to follow you as a student on the amount of time we spend in lesson, so the length of the lesson is determined by you in the moment, and what we are working on in the lesson. Because of this my rate per lesson in fixed, so depending on the moment and you we can have bigger or smaller lessons.
If you wish to do things differently I am open to discussing it!

Über mich

I especialy like to have imput from the students, if they decide to do so. Music is not suposed to be dificul (although you have to work on it!). It is something so natural, that one must folow it the way it is natural to them.

I go where the student guides me, even if there is no input from the student, I find that, besides the basics of playing the instrument, which are universal for anyone who wants to learn piano, the student will show eventualy what he or she is most apt for. And that's where I folow.

In my experience, listening is perhaps 50 per cent of playing improvised music. So I like to make my classes listening sessions, where I may guide the student to listen to all the diferent parts involved in a song.
