Drum lessons for beginners and intermediate players
Hello, I am Francesca and I have been playing the drums for some years now. I have a bachelor and a master's in science but I chose to make a turning point in my life and study music. I was admitted in the conservatory of Groningen in 2021, in the jazz departement but after successfully completing 2 years, I chose to leave the academic institution.
I would like to share the artistry and joy of drumming but also the knowledge I have gained so far, with students of all ages and especially beginners.
In my lessons, I focus on practical skills like rhythm, coordination, and technique. We work through exercises and songs together, tailored to each student's goals and abilities.
My approach is hands-on and encouraging. I know that learning drums can be challenging, so I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and pushing their limits. Whether they're aiming to nail their favorite song or just want to have fun jamming, I'm there to guide them every step of the way.
Through patient instruction and a passion for music, I aim to instill not only drumming skills but also a lifelong love for making music. It's about more than just hitting the right beats—it's about feeling the rhythm and expressing yourself behind the kit.

About Me
With a lifelong passion for music and a diverse background in various instruments such as guitar and bass, I embarked on a journey to further hone my skills in drumming, ultimately pursuing studies in the Netherlands. With both a Bachelor's and s Master's degree in science, my heart remained devoted to music.Having played in various bands and ensembles, I I hope to bring a modest amount of knowledge and expertise to my teaching practice.
My philosophy as an instructor prioritizes the enjoyment and engagement of my students above all else. Whether delving into rock, pop, Latin, or beyond, I customize my lessons to match each student's unique tastes and how they learn best. From mastering favorite songs to refining coordination and rhythm, I strive to create a dynamic and personalized learning experience.
Open to new ideas and approaches, I continuously evolve my teaching methods to suit the unique needs of each student, recognizing that diversity is the key to musical growth.

Though I may be less experienced in formal teaching settings, my dedication to fostering enjoyment and growth in my students is unwavering.Reviews (1)
Francesca is a fantastic drum teacher. She is very flexible too. In the first lesson, after I briefly played a groove, she showed in what way I can improve. I am sure that people of all levels can learn from her. The location is also pretty nice, though a good teacher is of course more valuable.

Koenraad
Professional classical piano lessons at all levels for motivated studentsDo you really want to learn to play classical piano well? Customized piano lessons from performing musician Koenraad. Graduated Cum Laude from the Utrecht Conservatory.
All lessons are one on one. We develop a long-term lesson plan. My lessons are for all levels, but only for enthusiastic students who want to work intensively. This means at least one hour of lessons per week. In addition to playing the piano, a lot of attention is paid to harmony, solfége and rhythm.
Pianist Koenraad has been playing since he was six years old. While classical music has always been a passion throughout his life, he also explores world music, jazz, improv, film scoring and electronic music. From a young age, he studied jazz rhythm and drums alongside piano. Mainly a soloist, he also enjoys working as a collaborative pianist in the Lied genre and is an enthusiastic chamber music player. Performs in world music and improvisation festivals as well as an orchestral pianist and répétiteur. He is currently preparing for further study in the field of film and game scoring.
His biggest music love is that of the work of Scriabin, a composer he feels “carries it all”.
Mariana
Pan flute Lessons, Theory Lessons, Singing LessonsThe classical/contemporary pan flute has developed only in the last 20 years which concluded with composers writing for this instrument and educators to develop a teaching program. The instrument has been very famous in world music for centuries, therefore the oral transmission played and still plays an important role in teaching and developing the techniques of the instrument.
I've been teaching the pan flute for 4 years and playing the instrument for more than 14 years with experience in different styles: folk, classic and contemporary
My style is based on demonstration, involving the student in the process of understanding the techniques of the instrument as well as the reasons behind certain musical styles in order to help them achieve confidence and a better interpretation.
I use most of the time the brainstorming strategy to help students generate questions and ideas and get creative like in improvising, writing their own melodies, etc. In matters of musical interpretation, I encourage experimenting with phrases, musical colors, rhythms, musical direction, and music analysis.
Davor

Besides jazz I can teach you many different styles, such as rock, blues, pop, funk, latin and brazilian music. I completed my master's degree in jazz guitar at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, so if you're interested, I can help you with composing, music theory, harmony and rhythm.
My concept gives you extensive knowledge and tools, so that you can continue to develop your guitar skills independently in a few months. Lessons take place at my home in Amsterdam Noord or online.
Possible languages during the lessons are Dutch, English and German. For more information please contact me.
Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any levelI 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.

(LIVE or ONLINE!) Piano, improvisation, composition and music theory lessonsI am a Spanish pianist and composer (MMus graduate from Codarts Rotterdam in both directions) with many years of teaching experience, and also very active in performing in various contexts.
I give private piano lessons for all levels and styles (classical, jazz, Latin, new age, pop...), as well as music theory, composition and improvisation lessons. 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 COMPLEXITYThe 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.

Music History Lessons Tailored to All Needs and InterestsMy 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 diverse content — or require a rigorous plan oriented toward exams, auditions, or academic improvement, I design a personalized educational pathway.
My approach is rooted in a highly practical vision of learning, based on the educational model in which I was trained during my master’s degrees in Conducting (Antwerp) and Historical Cello (Brussels). I understand teaching as a dynamic process where deep understanding takes precedence over rote memorization.
