من أنا؟
Hi, I’m Mike, a guitar teacher and English tutor based in Amsterdam with over 30 years of experience as a musician, composer, and educator.

I’ve worked professionally in recording studios, live performance, and music production — and I bring that real-world experience to my lessons. My guitar classes focus on practical playing skills for real musicians: rhythm, tone, timing, improvisation, and performance. Whether you’re a beginner learning your first chords or an experienced player looking to refine your style, I’ll help you build confidence and develop your own sound.

As an English teacher, I specialize in conversational English, pronunciation, and writing skills for adults and professionals. My lessons are designed to improve fluency and natural communication, whether for daily life, business, or creative work.

I believe that learning works best when it’s personal, practical, and enjoyable. Every student learns differently, so my approach is flexible and focused on real progress — not just theory.

If you’re looking for a guitar teacher or English tutor in Amsterdam who understands how to connect real-world experience with modern learning, I’d love to work with you.
المستوى التعليمي
hold a Bachelor of Arts in Literature from California State University, Northridge (1989), which gave me a strong foundation in communication, writing, and analysis.
I also studied Japanese language at Temple University, Tokyo (2012), which deepened my understanding of second-language learning from a student’s perspective.

I’m a professional guitarist, composer, and producer with over 30 years of experience in recording, performing, and restoring vintage instruments. My lessons are built around real-world playing — not endless scales, but practical music that builds confidence, creativity, and great tone.

Whether you’re a beginner just picking up the guitar or an experienced player looking to refine your sound, I’ll help you understand not only what to play but why it sounds good.

We’ll cover:

Building solid rhythm and expressive phrasing

Understanding tone, pedals, and gear setup

Classic rock, blues, and modern techniques

Playing with feel and intention

Optional lessons on recording and home setup

Lessons are relaxed, friendly, and tailored to your pace. I teach both in person (Amsterdam) and online, and every student gets a personalized plan that fits their goals — whether that’s playing your favorite songs, improving tone, or developing your own sound.

If you’ve ever wanted lessons from someone who’s been there, both on stage and in the studio, this is for you.

Hi! I'm Tanya.
I was born in Italy, but for the last two years of my life I have traveled the world, mainly in Central and South America and the Middle East, traveling and working remotely.
I am a professional teacher with 6 years of experience. I worked on the translation of medical and legal articles, panels in the glass museum in Venice and worked as an interpreter at the court of Venice.
I have a degree in languages, I am certified in international law and I am a language coach. Language coach means that I not only teach you a language, but also how to learn new languages!
I will closely monitor your entire learning journey, to get the most out of your skills!
That's because I love learning new languages! That's why after years of studying I became a polyglot (8 languages - Italian, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Dutch) and I came up with a method to teach you the language you want to learn!
Over the years I have learned to model my work according to the personal needs of each student and have developed a method that allows my students to learn the language in a fast and fun way.
My hobby is my greatest passion is learning other languages, therefore from my experience I can understand many of the problems associated with learning a foreign language.
My lessons are based on a specific method that I have designed to facilitate and accelerate learning.
My classes are available in Italian, English, Spanish, French, Hebrew, Dutch and Arabic.
GROUP LESSONS possible!
See you soon! :-)
