    Expert Guitar Lessons: All Levels - Beginners to Advanced

    The key to fast progress on the guitar lies in developing good practice habits from the start. I teach a scientific approach to mastering guitar by learning how to train your fingers for physical mastery of the instrument, and learning how to practice effectively.

    I also focus on breaking down songs or techniques into manageable sections. This keeps things from feeling overwhelming and allows students to make steady progress, celebrating small wins along the way. We focus on getting the details right, playing slowly with intention, and ensuring that timing, tone, and technique are solid before speeding up.

    By developing these habits, students can make faster progress, avoid bad habits, and stay inspired throughout their learning journey.

    About Me

    I picked up the guitar at age 9, and by 12, I was already performing in local bars, backing up singers and other talents. Around that time, I helped form a funk rock band called The Lizard Slippers, where I played lead guitar and also wrote songs. By age 15, I spent a year at the Rimon School of Music to further my studies. At 19, I went on to form Vine, a professional events band that continues to perform today. It was during this period that I began teaching guitar.

    At 21, I developed tendinitis from playing too much, and spent nearly two years searching for a solution. That's when I discovered Jamie Andreas' approach to guitar playing, which completely transformed my technique. Her methods allowed me to play without straining my body, and not only did this help me recover from the tendinitis, but it also boosted my playing speed and efficiency. More importantly, it revolutionized the way I approach teaching.

    Since then, I've applied Jamie's methods with all of my students, and the results have been incredible. I've seen firsthand that with the right guidance, motivation, and commitment, anyone can become great at the guitar. Teaching has become one of the most meaningful aspects of my life, and I’m now fully convinced that, with the right tools, anyone can succeed on their musical journey.

    Education

    In 2016 I went and studied Guitar at Rimon School Music and sound engeneering at Pluto Studios in Tel Aviv which included recording, live sound mixing, and producing.

    Experience / Qualifications

    15 years of performing on stage and in recording studios, with a diverse range of musical styles and settings.
    6 years of experience teaching guitar to students of all ages, from beginners to advanced players, with a focus on developing solid technique and a deep musical understanding.

    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.

My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student. The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup. I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

    CLASSICAL, JAZZ/ MODERN PIANO AND RHYTHM COMPLEXITY
    The older I get, the more I love. Especially during these times of immense ugliness and hate, wars and conflict, music- that's always been all about love - is the home I keep returning to. To me, mentoring someone is all about sharing the love for the instrument, thirst about the material, desire to explore new musical paths and respect for whatever happens whilst playing. Not only we will explore technical paths and understand rhythm under a totally different light but also communicate through improvisation and modal principles. My goal is for you to love the instrument a bit more, music a bit more and as Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said "Perhaps love is the process of my leading you gently back to yourself". So let's explore together the painstakingly beautiful process of music through the inner child.

    Cello Lessons at All Levels, Adapted to the Student's Needs
    My teaching method is carefully tailored to the specific needs of each student, regardless of the subject we are working on (music theory, cello, music history, analysis, conducting, etc.). The pace of learning is always set by the student, ensuring that each lesson aligns realistically with their goals and interests. Whether you're looking for a more flexible, amateur approach — open to personal interests — or a more structured plan aimed at exams, auditions, or academic improvement, I design a personalized learning path for each case. My approach is rooted in a highly practical vision of learning, inspired by the educational model in which I was trained during my master’s degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). I view teaching as a dynamic process, where deep understanding takes precedence over rote memorization.

    Guitar workshops: personalized lessons / private training
    Folk or classical acoustic guitar. The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation. For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...). For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...). Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points: -Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear - Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords - Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand - Learning of different pieces of your choice - Left hand control exercises, speed and precision - Learning arpeggios - Work around muscle memory - Learning improvisation, musical play with others - Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used -Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results -Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument - Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone -Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge - Learn tablatures / tabs & in English. Note : - Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase. - As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy. - Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice. THE TEACHER : Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.
