Piano lessons jazz/ classical/ beginner (EN/ DE) from award-winning pianist
As a teacher I enjoy guiding my students down a wide variety of musical paths. Whether it's advanced classical pieces, particular harmonic concepts, an introduction to improvisation, favourite Joni Mitchell songs or teaching complete beginners to read music for the first time, I enjoy the variety and find it rewarding! I always encourage my students to pursue their individual musical interests, at the same time as bringing my own ideas and experience to the table.
I teach all ages and abilities: on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesday evenings at the old Tempelhof airport.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Private guitar lessons for beginners and intermediate

Axel
100% Personalized Drum lessons / Personalisierter Schlagzeugunterricht
Through time I have found out that starting by playing songs chosen by the student and creating exercises to practice that came out from the drums of that song is a very good way to learn how to play the instrument. Also keeps things interesting, since music is always the focus. I can help to choose the songs, but the student is always who decides which songs to play. This way, lessons become 100% personalized!
I have +10 years of experience as a teacher, and I'm an active musician in the Berlin modern jazz, creative music and improvised music scenes.
Obtained my bachelor's degree in the Manuel de Falla Music Conservatory in Buenos Aires (ARG) and the European Jazz Master degree at NTNU Trondheim, RMC Copenhagen and JIB Berlin.

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age.
I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.
Dimitrios
Acoustic and Electric Guitar Lessons in Amstedam Zuid
I am Dimitrios, I am a greek professional guitarist. I graduated with a masters degree in Jazz guitar from Conservatorium van Amsterdam and also studied in the UK conservatory of Leeds.
As a musician my primary focus is jazz music but I also often play other styles like soul, Rnb and more.
So far in my teaching career I have had experience with many different ages, from 7 to 40 years old and I think I have managed to pass on to them some of my passion for music.
Whether you want to learn to play your favourite tunes, learn to improvise or get some in depth knowledge about music theory and harmony we can work out a suited lesson plan for you. Happy to teach any level and any style from rock to jazz and electric or acoustic guitar.
As every person learns differently, my approach always depends on the student and what you want to get from the music and the guitar.
I always like to have a structured approach in my lessons, here are some subjects we can cover:
Building a repertoire: Blues, Pop, Rock, Country, Jazz, Rnb & soul
Guitar Techniques
Music theory: Chords & scales
Rhythmic Studies
Guitar Accompaniment techniques
Improvisation - Guitar Solos
Sight Reading
Ear Training
Songwriting-Composing
