Piano/ Music theory / Music production lessons for all levels
Hi, I've been giving piano and music theory lessons for over 17 years. I have received music education in many different disciplines and from teachers. Learning music from different teachers taught me how much difference the quality of communication with students can affect their journey. They helped me to understand what works to deliver information to a student, and this made me passionate about teaching. I'm here for all levels, and everyone who wants to discover playing the piano, understanding music theory, finding your own freeway on the keys, composing, and producing music. We can combine all, or focus on one! Easy :) Helping others to discover their musical tendencies is my strong muscle, as I don't have only one way of teaching. I can easily adapt to students' strong side, help them gain confidence, and show them what they need to learn. I create a personal working journey for every student. Also, I can help you to prepare for ABRSM or other conservatory exams. From beginner to advanced levels, you are more than welcome! Don’t be shy, please get in touch!

Yammy
Private Music Lessons for Piano, Violin and Erhu (Chinese violin)
As a Cambridge University graduate in the Faculty of Education, I am delighted to have settled down in the Netherlands since September 2019. I started piano at the age of 5, and music has been an important part of my life ever since. Classically trained as a violinist, I picked up another instrument named Erhu (Chinese violin) and became a professional performer. I am experienced in teaching both children and adults, from different cultural backgrounds. Also, I have been actively involved in both Western and Chinese orchestra since high school. Thanks to my years of experience in being an orchestra member and soloist, I am also familiar with orchestral music. As a humble music therapist, I am passionate about music and believe in the power of music. I trust that music is in everybody and I respect every student's individuality and thus tailor my teaching methods to develop my students' full potential. I started teaching in 2009 and most students put their trust in me when they first decided to learn an instrument. I also enjoy exploring the world of music with students with learning disabilities. I am proud to say, my students, aged from 5 to 60, are enthusiastic in playing the instrument they have chosen and keen to improve their skills following my advice. I adopt a flexible approach in teaching - I believe every student is unique and my job is to develop the strengths and improve the weaknesses. I put a lot of emphasis on a solid foundation in my teaching. For young children, I tend to use a more interactive approach to explain complicated music theories, yet strict in the fundamentals such as posture and rhythm. For adults, I am always happy to discuss with them my lesson plan and choose the best exercises and songs that suit their music interests and needs. For my students who would like to take exams, I am happy to tailor the lessons based on their progress. I believe in the quality of learning and understanding rather than the number of pieces that they learn. Many beginners and their parents have put their trusts in me and achieved distinction in their first ABRSM exam. I am fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese, and a native speaker of Cantonese Chinese. I am happy to travel and travel costs will be added on the top of the standard tuition fee. *Proof of qualifications avaliable upon requests.
