Piano Lesson: Enjoy the Music While Learning to Play!
course price icon
From 36 € /h
arrow icon
Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano? Or do you want to learn to read music? Maybe you want help with a difficult part? Or do you want to learn how to play without a blade?

I would love to help you with that! How do we get started?

We naturally start with an introduction so that I know what you want, what you can do and how we can proceed. Step by step without pressure or rush. I have a nice collection of pieces, both classic and modern, that we can start with and you may already have something in mind that you would like to learn.

I have had private lessons for 11 years and have been playing this very beautiful instrument since I was 7. The lessons are really only a small part of the musical growth. What matters is that you can enjoy the music you create yourself.

If you are interested, feel free to leave a message. The times are negotiable.

About Me
I am Esperanza,
I live in Turnhout with my fiancé and my lovely pets. I work for the Flemish Red Cross in psychosocial care. My passions are dancing and making music, I enjoy both equally. When I want to relax and change my mind, I find my piano and play the pieces that I like the most at that moment. Sometimes I take on the challenge of learning a new piece and it is very satisfying when I finally master that piece. I have benefited a lot from the private guidance in my younger years. Because of these lessons I can now enjoy the pieces I play without having to put too much energy and time into studying them.
Education
University studies in Maastricht, Netherlands and university studies in Wageningen, Netherlands - these studies have allowed me to do the work I do now.
Experience / Qualifications
I have been playing since I was 7 and have had private lessons for 11 years. I have given piano lessons at home and abroad, where someone was needed I offered my help. I have traveled a lot and because of that I speak several languages. But there is always one language that everyone speaks and that is music.

Salsa lesson including Bachata - Merengue - Cuban - LA - Cumbia - Colombian salsa
60 € /h
I teach you the basics of salsa, the techniques of guiding and following, the different basic turns, developing the musical ear and dancing in harmony with the rhythm. As you can see I know many kinds of salsa dancing, each one is unique and a lot of fun to learn!

Because I can dance as 'man' as 'woman' (in salsa there are different steps for the male and female roles) it doesn't matter if you come alone or with your partner.

The price is based on a one-time session, see it as a small workshop, in which I teach you the basics of the salsa you want to learn. From there we can see if you are interested in more lessons and we can agree on a cheaper price.

Piano lessons without making a move.
I offer piano lessons via skype.
Your advantage: you will receive lessons in your own familiar environment, no more time loss in traffic, no longer with the bike by wind and weather, no longer playing "taxi" as a parent. And yet get lessons from an experienced teacher with more than 20 years of experience in training aspiring pianists. For myself: exploring a new pedagogical approach and working from home.
Lessons according to niveua: Price per half hour (follow-up, advice and study via email or skype can also be done every 15 minutes). For more information or a trial lesson please contact us.

I will encourage you to get clear goals, support you in finding a good practice rhythm. We will decide together what pieces you can approach, depending on your tastes and your skills. I will teach you music theory and you might need to prepare a homework for each lesson. My goal is making you to be able to learn and play a piece by yourself in the shortest time possible.
I gladly teach beginners and advanced, students preparing for auditioning to conservatoire are welcome as well.
I teach on a grand piano (Ixelles) or I can come to your place (we need to discuss it).

I am a concert pianist, I've got my first diploma in Romania. I studied also in Austria (Salzburg) and in Switzerland (Zürich). I play in different chamber music groups, I accompany and I teach piano.

What do people expect from a good Music School?

Decent education:

From the outset, the Wonderful World Music School opted for an offer based on highly qualified qualified teachers who could be engaged and not vice versa. This immediately guarantees that the program (the same as the official part-time music education and the Municipal Conservatories) is followed in a proper manner.
Personal assistance:

Musicschool Wonderful World chose a smart way of coaching. In addition to individual lessons, where the student gets all the attention, they consciously choose to keep the classroom lessons small. In this way, lessons can also be given in a quasi-individual way. This results in a more intensive form of teaching, which requires fewer lessons than in official part-time music education to process the same subject material.
We offer great flexibility in choice of teaching hours package. Each pupil has the choice to take lessons for 1/2 hour or one hour (or more) per week. 1 h. lesson every 14 days is also possible.
We work with lessons of 10 or 30 lessons. The pupil can therefore jump in at any time of the year.
And a great flexibility at the time of the lesson. We try, if pupils follow an instrument next to the class lessons, to place them as much as possible. Also, as far as possible, the optimal lesson time is always sought for the pupil. Something that is impossible in official part-time music education.
Every year we organize lectures, exams and student concerts, such as in official part-time music education. At the annual proclamation we award diplomas, followed by a pleasant dinner and / or garden party.
In a pleasant atmosphere:

The personal approach quickly creates a relationship of trust between pupils and teachers.
But in addition, Muziekschool Wonderful World has the advantage of its atmospheric environment: the lessons take place under the wooden beams of the atmospheric, eighteenth-century classrooms of our classified establishment in Sint-Katelijnestraat 63: the perfect framework for making music.
At a reasonable price:

The prices of the Wonderful World Music School are very competitive. The official part-time music education has since September significantly increased its prices for adults, so that the gap with our private education is still very small. In addition, you can spread the payment of your registration fee by choosing lessons per 10 (ie by paying the fee per school year in 3 installments).
A few more practical announcements:

The lesson dates of the class lessons are given in the beginning of September for the entire school year.
We also organize summer internships with renowned musicians with international allure and charisma.
We also organize Masterclasses with renowned musicians with international allure and charisma.
Students can park their bikes on our inner courtyard. There are also 3 Vinci-Parks within walking distance. The ideal location!
Route:

By train: Our location is a 20-minute walk from Mechelen station in the shadow of the Sint-Rombouts cathedral and within walking distance of the Grote Markt.
By car: Nearest car park, Cathedral or Grote Markt, both less than 100 meters away.
At 50 meters from Huis De Min in the Kanunnik De Deckerstraat a large parking lot is provided. It costs 2.40 EUR / 2 hours. Please note: you may park for a maximum of 2 hours (valid from Mon - Sat from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm).
Would you like to stay in Mechelen after a concert? Mechelen has some nice hotels within walking distance of our locations: Hotel Vé, Hotel Elisabeth, the Three Horse Signs and Den Grooten Wolsack

Ever since I was little, I was passionate about music. I have been playing the piano for 10 years and have given several concerts.

Those who want to learn the piano, I adapt my course according to your preferences and tastes. If you don't know how to read the notes or you've never done music theory, that doesn't cause a problem. The most important thing in music is to have fun. I can teach you several genres of music such as classical music, jazz, film music, pop...

I am a student teacher of music education and project art subjects. I myself graduated in solfège and took piano lessons for 3 years. After 3 years of taking lessons at the academy, I continued to learn to play the piano.

Teaching and music are my passion. When I teach I try to do it in the most fun and fastest way. I want to see my students evolve as quickly as possible. The lessons I give always start from practice, as this is the easiest way to process the theory. I always make the lessons myself and make them at the level of my students. Every now and then I work with a book, but I certainly don't rely on it.

The first lesson will be an introductory lesson, in which I will look at what you can already do, what you expect from the lessons and what exactly you want to learn. Then we will start at a good pace.
I prefer to teach at home. Lessons cannot take place at my home. I have the most experience with people who have little or no experience. I also prefer this because it allows me to teach directly in my own way. Age doesn't matter to me. You are never too old for music!

I hope I can teach you soon and that we can go together for the best result!!

The content of the lessons is adapted to the needs and wishes of each student.
It is possible to follow a combination of music theory and instrument, or only focus on one aspect.

Depending on the student's goal, the level, teaching method and music styles are adjusted and personalized in consultation.
Together we will look at what your learning needs are and which method suits you best.

As a teacher I am familiar with different styles, from classical music (baroque, impressionism, classicism, romanticism and contemporary music), to folk music, jazz standards, pop songs or minimalist music.
There is also the option to work from improvisations.

The lessons are suitable for all ages and levels, the personal profile of the student is central.

Hey! Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano but aren't sure where to start? Or maybe you just want to take your piano playing to the next level? In either case, you can come to me for piano and theory lessons tailored to your needs! Are you a fan of pop/jazz music rather than classical? We can easily take care of this too! As a young student, I am often closer to the practice of teaching and can sense where the student's goals lie.
Very flexible throughout the week and weekends, either at the student's home, at my grand piano, or possibly online (especially music theory).

Teaching music that you would like to play for people, for yourself, whatever you want, I will find ways to help you with my practice methods, using my knowledge and experience that I got for more than 15 years of studying music, playing on stage, in a choir, with an orchestra, in music competitions, the difference of playing in all those situations, how to deal with your emotions when you play in front of people, and more.
