I am a professional musician who finished his masters studies in 2020 in Codarts, Rotterdam. Lessons are intended for all levels, I can adapt my teaching to the student needs. My career is basically classical, but I am open to different styles so if you are interested on (for example) pop, jazz or rock we can just focus on what do you want to learn in order to make Theory become more practical.

I specialize in teaching about Music and how to play the Guitar.
In class, I always make an effort to understand what are the goals and interests of all students, as well as their skills. This way we can address the issues at hand more effectively and make sure the student never loses his/her interest and focus in music and his/her instrument. I believe that an honest and friendly relationship between teacher and student is essential for this exchange of ideas to happen more clearly and fluently, so I do my best to make everyone feel comfortable enough to share their thoughts freely.
I offer good and personalized classes. This means that there will be special care with your interest in music and guitar, all basic skills will be worked upon and strengthened, all specific requests and ideas will be addressed, both improvisation and interpretation can be developed, and exploring potential, achieving goals and having fun are main priorities.
Come and enjoy learning more about Music and Guitar!

Do you want to work on classical repertoire? Do you want to learn songs from around the world or invent your own? do you want to play happy birthday to your best friend with a Cello?

Let's explore together this beautiful instrument with pieces that you like, finding different ways to play one thing, becoming actors on the stage of music... Let's create games to develop creativity and technique, those that will help you to personalise your way of playing.

With music, we learn much more than just playing pieces. I always thought about how the ancient Greeks introduced Music as an essential subject in school. Music was to heal, to entertain, to get to know yourself more.
I'm just finished my studies in the University of Arts of Codarts (Rotterdam) and I can't deny I will always keep learning after finishing my degree. I'm looking forward to sharing some knowledge and to hear what you already know.

What can i offer?
Styles that we can work on: Classical, Folk, Jazz, Pop music.
Languages that we can speak in the lesson: Dutch, English, Catalan or/and Spanish
Skills that we can work on: basic techniques, jazz and folk techniques, play the cello while singing, percussion on the cello.

How do I work?
Each class will be individually prepared, in order to have the student goals in mind. In our first lesson we can get to know each other and then we will figure out what do you want and how can I help you.
For BEGINNERS I teach the bow, finger positions and other basics with easy songs (with kids I add games to make it more entreating). Such as relating painting with playing, dancing with playing or literature with playing.
For AVERAGE LEVEL we explore, with already some technique, how to play songs, finding a good sound and feel at ease with the instrument.

Extra activities:
Once a month I plan a rehearsal with pianist to work on some repertoire of cello and piano. Meetings with other students are also arranged to play duos together. It's very necessary to play with people and not get stuck in our own individual studies!

Do you have doubts or need more information? Don't hesitate to write me a message!

Hello! My name is Alberto. I am a clarinet player who graduated from Codarts University of the Arts (Rotterdam). I am specialized in Classical Music, though I can teach also Jazz in a beginner to intermediate level.

I have always had a deep interest in chamber music, teaching and improvisation and I would like to be able to show you this passion.
The focus of my lessons is to show the possibilities of music, adapting to the student needs, going from clarinet technique to theory, other styles of music such us Klezmer, Jazz, basic piano, as well as learning how to play the bass clarinet.
But the most important thing is to find a path for each student, so do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions and feel free to share your thoughts, I can adapt to your personal goals!

Use your musical power! Or do you want to be able to select the music you like yourself?

Should not be out of your level, we can play from pop to classical music,
every student is different and therefore also my method.

I, Kaori, have been active in the musical sector as a driven entrepreneur since 2016. At the age of three I started playing the piano, when I was 16 I composed my first piano song, and at the age of 18 I started to conduct small ensembles and create my own multidisciplinary to create projects with a mix of music, theater and other arts. By sharing my love for music, I ensure that the message gets across to the musicians, regardless of their level. My main focus is on playing together, being musically active and having fun in the process.

I believe that every person is different and has different needs and abilities, that's why I like to adapt to my students and take care of their interests. In case the student does not have a clear view, I help him/her to find what appeals to him/her.

If the student wishes, I can easily prepare him/her for the entrance exams for the conservatory.

Hi, I am Zalan!

Are you considering to become a bass player?
Are you interested in improvisation?
Do you want to play in a band?
Or are you on the way to become a musician already, but you need some extra help?
You are in the right place then.

I am a professionally educated bass guitarist and teacher from Hungary, currently based in The Hague (Freshly graduated in master education at the Royal Conservatoire The Hague)
I am an active musician since 2014, I have played in several formations from solo performances to bigbands and orchestras.
I mostly play in the genres of jazz (free, fusion), metal, repetitive minimal music and contemporary classical music.
Besides playing I am quite passionate about teaching, during my bachelor studies I have started to teach in music schools and also in private, and teaching since then.
I can teach you jazz theory, composition and my own teaching method too in a very clear way.
My view on music is simple: Music is a game, that is why we call it "playing" music.

Are you passionate about singing and ready to take your skills to the next level? Whether you're a beginner or an experienced singer, I’m here to guide you on your musical journey!

I'm Keith, a professional jazz singer, composer, and educator with over 12 years of experience. I hold a degree in Jazz Vocals from the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, where I graduated in 2022. Before moving to the Netherlands, I spent six years as the resident artist with an acclaimed a cappella theater group in Hong Kong.

My extensive background includes coaching amateur a cappella groups, teaching vocal lessons in Hong Kong’s secondary schools, and providing choir lessons at the European School The Hague since 2021. My diverse experience ensures that I can help you refine your singing abilities, regardless of your current level.

Each lesson is tailored to your individual needs, ensuring steady progress. Here's what we can work on together:

- Vocal Techniques: Enhance your breath support, warm-up routines, dynamics, articulation, and explore a range of tone colors.
- Interpretation & Expressiveness: Learn how to convey emotion and tell a story through your performance.
- Jazz Improvisation: Unlock your creativity and develop your improvisational skills in jazz.
- Stage Presence: Build confidence and polish your performance skills for the stage.
- Music Theory, Solfège & Ear Training: Strengthen your foundational knowledge to become a well-rounded musician.

I conduct lessons in English, Cantonese, Mandarin, and a little Dutch, making them accessible and comfortable for a wide range of students.

Music is Play! and everyone is it's own game.
Read, understand and make only the music you like. I think if it isn't fun, it can't be music:)

I studied a classical piano bachelor, and later a jazz master and a live electronics master. In the meantime, I have been teaching music. It's longer than 9 years now!
Most of my students learn piano. With the starter ones, I use my own system to equally help them grow all the needed skills: body consciousness (to avoid lesions or bad habits), music theory (including writing and reading) and improvisation.
Usually most songs are made of melody, chords and rhythm. From there, I can help you understand how a song works, how is it written, how does it translate to the piano... and voilá! You'll know the song by heart, and will be able to play it a bit different every time, because you won't be following a set of pre-imposed instructions. You will understand how a small system (a song) works.
This way of learning can be applied to any song, from any century or style. Understanding is key! Play Chopin, write rock songs, play Monk, Bill Evans, the Beatles, make a lo-fi beat, play Beethoven, play the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Star Wars, play video game music, play salsa! bachata and make people dance, laugh or cry.
Music is very powerful!

PD: I have also experience imparting electronic music lessons in Ableton Live and Max MSP, which is now a very important part of my professional practice. In case you are interested, it is also possible to mix the two worlds and create a any kind of path between piano, synths, beats and home studio techniques.
Ask me anything, I'll tell you how I could help!

These piano lessons are all about enjoying music and feeling comfortable at the piano. Whether you’re a total beginner or already play a little, we’ll work at your pace and focus on building good habits, solid technique, and confidence.

We’ll cover reading music, rhythm, and coordination, but always in a fun, relaxed way. You’ll get to play music you enjoy, explore your creativity, and actually have fun while learning.

The goal is simple: to help you feel good about playing the piano and enjoy the process of making music.

In my lessons, having fun while making music is always central. I believe you learn best when you feel safe, seen, and free to experiment. That’s why I work with a personal and positive approach, allowing each student to follow their own pace and musical interests.

A typical lesson starts with a short warm-up or technical exercise, tailored to the voice or instrument. We then work on songs, ideas, or projects the student enjoys, such as singing favorite songs, writing original music, or producing a track. Technique, musicality, and creativity are always intertwined. I explain theory in a practical and accessible way, so it can be applied immediately to your own music.

My background as a conservatory-trained vocalist, songwriter, and producer allows me to combine multiple disciplines. I support students not only with vocal or instrumental technique, but also with expression, confidence, songwriting, and developing a personal style. Making mistakes is part of the process, and often where the most beautiful ideas begin.

The lessons are suitable for both beginners and advanced students, and for anyone curious about music and creative growth. Whether you dream of performing on stage, writing your own songs, or simply singing or playing with more confidence and joy, we will work together, focused and with lots of fun, on your musical development.

I am a Master’s student in Classical Composition at Codarts(Rotterdam Conservatory).

To improve music composition and piano skills, rather than lessons that are overly theoretical, broad, and generic, what is needed are practical and applicable lessons that focus on the essential key points and tips that actually improve ability, and that teach how to do it in practice.
Tutor should respect the student’s autonomy and opinions, tailor the class to the student’s individuality and preferences, and show patience with the student’s pace of development. Based on these principles, I will teach diligently.
