Singing - piano - music theory lessons, given in Ede (in English or Dutch)

Hallo! My name's Emi - I'm a British musician living in the Netherlands. I have been incredibly lucky to have had some incredible musical experiences... Some highlights including performing for the BBC/Ronnie Scott's TV Nights/O2 VIP Lounge/support for acts such as JP Cooper, and founding the Limelight Sessions (international monthly music nights, with acts such as Nick Wilson/Joe Buck/Hannah Grace, and many more).... But my biggest passion is teaching. I have 7 years of teaching experience (singing/piano/theory/English language), and a 100% pass rate in students' exams - from classical to pop music. I teach all ages/levels, and will tailor lessons to your own goals and musical visions.
If you'd like to know more, or want to set up a taster lesson, then I'd love to hear from you!

Hopelijk tot snel,
Emi :)

About Me

I suppose you could say that music is in my blood. Growing up in a family of musicians, some of my earliest memories are of toddling around my mother’s own music school, back in England - I was like a kid in a candy shop, eagerly involved with anything and everything that I could be! My early background was largely classical - I was really lucky to have some amazing training from a young age in cathedral youth choirs, orchestras, classical voice training, and had achieved grade 8 ABRSM diploma in both piano and singing by age 14. Around that time, I discovered a love for songwriting, and in the years that followed I was lucky to have music take me through many adventures UK wide. Some particular highlights include performing at the O2 VIP Lounge (Bastille pre-show), BBC Introducing, Sofar Sounds, Ronnie Scott’s TV Nights, selling out my own headline shows, and supports for wonderful artists such as JP Cooper, as well as radio play (including in-session with Demot O’Leary on BBC Radio2), and publishing music through major label Sony.

As well as making music, I have big passions in other places - teaching being one of them. I have 7 years experience in teaching (all ages/standards), and a 100% pass rate through classical/music theatre/pop/theory grades. I’m also a huge language lover, and am a licenced English teacher (and native speaker) - I love being able to use this to help students with their English pronunciation.

If I've learned anything over the past 7 years, it's that no 2 students are the same, nor do they want the same things from the lessons. That's why I tailor my lessons to each individual student, so that we can, together, realise *your* goals and targets as a musician. Maybe it's an old hobby that you miss, maybe you're looking to go into the profession, or have a conservatoire audition coming up... Maybe you want to try music out for the first time! I'm here to guide you through it all. I can't wait to get started! :)

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.

Dear students: My name is Denise and I'm a professional singer with a singing master's degree from Catalonia's Music College (ESMUC) specialized in Historical Singing, Musicology and Music Education. My experience runs mostly in early and classical music with an active performing life, nevertheless I also have the experience and knowledge of popular musical styles such as Latin-American folk, jazz and musicals. As a docent or vocal coach I've collaborate with different academic institutions and private artistic projects, focusing mostly on international students or social integration programs. I have years of experience teaching children, teenagers and adults in both Latin-America and Europe, therefore understanding different appreciation levels and needs. My main goal is to help the student discover her or his voice while enjoying making music. **Class suggestions and indications** No experience is needed just bring your enthusiasm and favorite music. Classes can be given either in English, Spanish, French or Deutsch. There are no limit for styles, bring your favorite music and I will provide a safe environment for your personal and musical growth. For Children I strongly recommend the 45 min class since their attention span and body development is different from an adult. Feel free to contact me in case of further questions. I hope to read from you soon and to make music together. All my best, Denise P.S. My schedule is mostly a suggestion since I'm constantly editing and adapting to a work schedule, please feel free to send me a message regarding your schedule needs and suggestions in order to give you the best service.

Ziad
Oriental Arabic Oud and Singing Teacher in Mönchengladbach
Experienced Oud & Oriental singing teacher for over 8 years, Lebanese, currently residing in Mönchengladbach. I studied for 8 years at the Lebanese National Conservatory. I was a teacher at Casa Beethoven Academy in Lebanon and also offered private lessons. Additionally, I served as a concertmaster in the oriental orchestra "Loubnan Assalam" for more than 5 years. My reason for relocating to Germany is to complete my studies at the University of Kamp Lintfort. I am fluent in English, Couramment en français, ولغتي الأم هي اللغة العربية. Unfortunately, I speak only a little German (Aber leider spreche ich ein bisschen Deutsch). My recommendation for learning the Oud is to begin by studying musical notes and notation before delving into songs. While some students prefer to jump straight into playing songs, understanding the fundamentals of music notation accelerates progress in the long run. Dedication and hard work can yield significant progress within a year, enabling you to play simple tunes. However, if you lack a passion for music or the instrument itself, I advise against pursuing it. As a friendly and passionate teacher, I derive joy from witnessing my students' progress and enjoy playing duets with them. While in-person meetings are preferable, I also offer online lessons for those unable to meet in person. Feel free to leave me a message, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.
