Enjoy the music! Bassoon, Basic Piano lessons and Music Theory.
Highly dedicated and passionate teacher. Age does not matter when it comes to learning, just enjoying it. Lessons for beginners to more advanced students. Always trying to keep a creative environment where the students can express themselves in all aspects. I believe that it is necessary to be constant. The ideal would be one hour or hour and a half a week, but that depends on the student availability. I would provide a personal adaptation. I like playing games, singing and coming up to most creative solutions for learning fast inside of a save space for questions and imagination of the student. It is very important to motivate the students regarding to their music tastes. I consider myself an involved and motivated musician. I am constantly trying to learn new styles and enjoy so much doing it. At the moment I am studying my second bachelor degree in music, specifically in Early Music. I am very flexible with schedules for lessons so coming to a common point should not be very difficult.

Jag är en professionell fagottist och som frilansare spelar jag med många professionella orkestrar runt om i Sverige. Jag har även undervisningserfarenhet och pedagogisk utbildning och jag kommer säkerligen att hjälpa dig att nå dina mål och att du har kul i processen. Jag tror att alla har potential att spela musik och att musiken är menat för alla njuta av den!

Rebecca
Querflötenunterricht und Fagottunterricht für alle Niveaus
Playing music and expressing yourself through an instrument is something that everyone can do! I believe in music being an inclusive and attainable skill no matter your experience. I have a passion for both teaching and playing the bassoon and flute, and believe in creating a positive and exciting environment for students. I have 10+ years experience as a flute and bassoon tutor across multiple schools in Sydney and London, and have recently moved to Berlin. I am able to teach in English only. I work as a freelance bassoonist in London and Berlin, and have worked with major orchestras such as the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, Berlin Philharmonic Karajan Akademie and the Orchestral of the Royal Opera House, London. I graduated with a Master’s degree from Guildhall School of music and drama, London. My teaching experience is extensive. I have taught students between the ages of 3-30. I have worked 1:1 with students, and have had lots of experience with groups of up to 40 students across many instruments. I have put many students through practical musical exams and highly encourage them if desired. My students have a 100% success rate in their exams. As I am currently a performer, teacher and student myself, I am very aware of the balance between hard work and having fun. I believe the best way to create a successful musical journey is through a positive and encouraging environment, where students can develop their skills and take risks without fear! I also take highly into account the individuality of students and their desires, so make sure to adjust my approach as suited. If you would like to learn the flute and/or bassoon just for fun, you are welcome. If you would like to further develop your musical skills, I offer lessons for competitions, school exams, as well as auditions in orchestras or conservatories.

Learn how to play a Woodwind instrument with music lessons
I have a Bachelor degree in Orchestral Instrumentalist and I'm currently undertaking a Master degree of Music in Performance. As a Music teacher,my goal is to keep students challenged, but not overwhelmed. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. I adapt my lessons to each student, because each student is different.

Construction of reeds for Bassoon - Arming and scraping
Hello! I am Tobias, a bassoonist for more than 5 years, and in this course I will teach how to prepare reeds for the bassoon. From assembling the reed to scraping it, this activity presents great complexity and a huge range of possibilities in the way of preparing it, which is why it is ideal for each bassoonist to be able to make their own reeds and find their desired sound. . This course will allow the student to prepare a reed simultaneously with the teacher (his/her own work team is required), or he/she can opt for a much more theoretical approach, where the student observes the preparation of the reed and is complemented with explanations of the armed and scraping. If the student wishes to scrape his own cane simultaneously with the teacher, he must request two classes on two different days, because the cane needs to take shape for a couple of hours.

Bassoon and Music Theory lessons specifically tailored to your needs. Meet an experienced bassoonist and a passionate musician.
I'm a bassoonist from Latvia currently studying in The Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. I have experience teaching the bassoon in a professional music school and I have prepared my students for youth competitions and auditions for youth orchestras. I will also gladly teach music theory for people interested to improve their knowledge or start from scratch. I can also, of course, combine both in one lesson. I enjoy playing the bassoon together with my students and I believe that playing in an ensemble benefits musicians on every level.

Juliana Mesa
Bassoon classes or music in general. Basic music theory and music theory
I teach bassoon and music classes in general. Within the bassoon course you can specify only the reed construction for the instrument. I can offer different areas of music education depending on the student's interest. I can also teach beginnings of music theory and music theory.

Iñigo Lz
Bassoon, initiation, intermediate and entrance tests.
Hello, I am Iñigo, I have played the Bassoon since I was 6 years old and I have a degree in teaching and a graduate in Bassoon interpretation at the CSMN, I also have experience as a bassoon teacher in different conservatories and music schools in the Basque Autonomous Community (Vitoria, Irún, Bergara, Arrasate ...) I propose an individualized methodology, based on the enjoyment of the instrument and the music without sticking to what is strictly classical. With me you can reinforce your technique and musicality, prepare entrance exams ... I also make my own reeds and have collaborated with different orchestral groups and bands (OSN, Pamplonesa ...). Maybe sharing my experience with you can help you. I encourage you to book an introductory class to meet us and find that this new way of conducting a class is truly amazing.

Music is essential for learning and deepening various subjects. It helps to know art, to train culturally, to broaden horizons, to improve in the studio, to the organization, to creativity, imagination and much more.

Bernat
BASSOON and MUSIC LESSONS for all levels! (Live and Online)
Hello, I am Bernat, I come from Barcelona, and I am a professional bassoonist. If you are interested in learning the bassoon, do not doubt to contact me! I started learning music when I was five. When I was eight I saw a bassoon for the first time, I felt in love with it and I started having lessons. I love to share my passion with my students. I have experience teaching kids and adults, and I adapt the lessons to your needs, preferences and level. Either if you want to have a first experience with the bassoon or if you want to improve your level, I am sure we can learn a lot from each other. I am an experienced orchestra and chamber music player. I got my Bachelor in Historical Bassoon at ESMUC (Barcelona, Spain) and my first Master in Den Haag Koninklijk Conservatorium. Currently, I am studying my second Master in France. I am specialized in historical bassoon performance, so I can teach modern bassoon, but also dulcian, baroque, classical and romantic bassoon. I can also offer reed making lessons as well as music theory lessons. My teaching locations are: - My appartment at Valkenboskwartier. - The student location. - Online.

María Losada
Musical Theory Lessons and Bassoon Lessons, with a Master Student
I am a 24 year-old HBO student of the Conservatorium van Amsterdam who plays Bassoon. I consider music an essential part of our lives and our culture and, therefore, its learning is necessary so that we can enrich and develop fully as human beings. The bassoon offers lots of remarkable and distinguished qualities, that you can only achieve by learning this particular instrument, with a very characteristic sound.
