Improve your cello playing - Taught by Professional Cellist

Hello!

My name is Pablo and I am a professional cellist.
In my 20+ years playing the cello I have been lucky to build an international career as a solo and orchestral musician in places like Bremen (Germany), Sweden (Göteborg), and Belgium (Gent). I have 4+ years worth of experience teaching online/in person, as well as a C1 Cambridge certificate of English. I also have a B1 level of Nederlands.

My philosophy of teaching is to teach my students in a comprehensive way how to use their body 100% efficiently.

I will teach them how to play in the most natural way, getting rid of tensions and fears in the process. I will tackle this as cello technique, but I will also work on being expresive and how to make the cello sing.

Thank you for your time.

Miriam
CELLO & MUSIC LESSONS FOR ALL AGES AND LEVELS WITH A PROFESSIONAL CELLIST WITH 8 YEARS OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE (IN PERSON AND ONLINE)
Are you in love with the sound of the cello but have never dared to start playing it? Have you been playing the cello as an amateur and now need an expert to guide you? Do you want to develop and improve your cello and music skills? Do you need reinforcement lessons? Would you like to prepare for entrance exams to the conservatory? Would you love to join a youth orchestra and need help preparing for the auditions? ... These are the private cello lessons you were looking for! My name is Miriam, I am a graduate in Master of Classical Music at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent. I've been teaching cello to children, teenagers and adults for 8 years, so I've acquired the necessary experience to be able to adapt to the different and personal needs and objectives of each student. My teaching methodology focuses on creating a friendly and relaxed environment (which does not mean undemanding!) in which students feel confident to express their own ideas and worries. In my lessons I focus on technical and postural questions, but we also reflect together on the music, as I like my students to develop their own musical ideas and not just imitate the teacher. Contact me now to schedule your first lesson and take the first step toward your musical aspirations! :)

Erika
Singing lessons with professional vocal and songwriting coach
I view teaching vocals and songwriting as a therapeutic, holistic process, where my students learn techniques and practical tools that help them hone their craft, but also work through psychological blockages that make them into greater artists.

Arta
Piano lessons for beginners, intermediates and advanced levels of playing
Learning how to play the piano is a goal you can reach only by frequent exercising. Considering the fact that many pupils and grownups don't have much time to practise, my piano lessons are split in learning new information and also practising together.

One of the things that makes my drum lessons unique is that I tailor the curriculum to fit your individual needs and interests. Whether you want to focus on a particular genre of music or develop a specific skill, I'll create a customized lesson plan to help you reach your goals.

Maria Fernández
Musical theory, violoncello lessons and musical interpretation
My name is Maria Fernández, I'm 25 years old and I'm a professional cellist graduated in Spain two years ago. Now I'm doing a Master in Classical Music in the Royal Conservatorium of Gent. During so many years I've been teaching music in different ways and ages (in schools and to private people): To people who wanted to start learning about the musical language or begin to play an instrument, to people who wanted to learn a score or develop their musical tools, to people who wanted to continue growing as a musician and training their listening and people who wanted to improve their theoretical musical knowledge. If you are beginning with the cello or with the music, if you want some extra lessons, if you need to prepare and audition or an exam, if you are doing a high level studies, I can help you. I have been studying and playing the cello for so many years in different places (orchestras, conservatoriums, recordings, musicals…) so I think I can give you some good advices in different areas. I like to think (and I do it in my lessons) that the music is a universal language and that anybody can learn it and understand it. Also that each person can make his/her own approach to this wonderful language. If you are interested in having a lesson, please let me know!

Javier
Professioneel cellist geeft cellolessen voor alle niveaus
Ik heb mijn hele leven cello geoefend en gespeeld en ik kan je verzekeren dat het een van de mooiste dingen is die je kunt doen. Zelfs als je er moeite mee hebt! Ik kan lesgeven aan zowel beginners of amateurs die er beter in willen worden, als aan studenten van een hoger niveau die hun vak willen perfectioneren. Ook als je iemand bent die erover denkt om met dit instrument te beginnen, twijfel dan niet! Ik baseer mij op de lessen die ik gedurende al mijn studiejaren van mijn leraren heb gekregen, waarbij ik altijd bijzonder geïnteresseerd ben geweest in het belang van de figuur van de leraar voor de gezonde ontwikkeling van de leerlingen. Ik pas me aan aan de technische en muzikale behoeften van elke leerling, zelfs als we van 0 beginnen, zonder muzikale voorkennis. We zullen werken aan elk aspect van het cellospel: De techniek van beide handen, de houding, de muzikale expressie...

Comprehensive Violin and Music Theory lessons for all ages
Hello, my name is Silvia! I am an Italian student of Violin, currently attending the Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice at KASK & Conservatorium in Gent. I already have experience in teaching music and violin to children, teenagers and young adults. In those occasions, I discovered how much transmitting my love for music to other people - children, teenagers, adults, any age! - is one of my highest goals within my musical career. I am aware that each student deserves a personal teaching approach, shaped on his/her own nature and attitude. I will help students strengthen and consolidate their technical skills on the instrument, but we will also have a lot of fun in playing music! My education: - Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice course, at KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. Ongoing (2022-2023). - Master Degree of Music in Performing Arts - Violin, issued by KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. 2020-2022. - Diploma in Violin (10-year course, old academic system) at the Conservatory of Music “G.P. da Palestrina” in Cagliari, Italy. 2009-2020.

Albert
Violin and Music Theory lessons for all ages and levels
Hi! I'm a violinist currently finishing a Master's in Music at Royal Conservatory in Ghent. I started playing violin at the age of 6, and studying with numerous professors made me realize how important an individualized pedagogical approach is for good development. My aim is to motivate students to be creative and enjoy playing music, helping them express their own ideas. A relaxed and natural technique is always one of my focuses, to avoid future injuries and to find ease while playing that will allow you to explore your musicality and feel free.

Aumi
Piano lessons for beginners or those more advanced, who have lost motivation and can use practice techniques.
Learning to practice an instrument well is very important. I really value this very much in my lessons. From the moment one can practice well, it progresses much faster, so that you also prefer to play. I started quite late, so I had to catch up a lot in a short time. In the beginning it progressed quickly, but as the pieces got more difficult I needed new practice techniques. I practiced so badly and that is very demotivating over time. I eventually learned to practice well by asking a lot of different people for help and now I'm making faster and faster progress. I would really like to share this info, so I think I have something to offer for young and old, even if I haven't been doing it that long.

Guitar lessons for beginners and advanced in and around Ghent
For beginners: During our guitar lesson you can bring your own songs that you want to work on or together we will see what the best songs are for you and what you can learn the most from. This ranges from the basic chords that make up most pop / rock songs to playing along with the melody or accompanying yourself while singing. So you can play what you always dreamed of in no time! For advanced users: Together we look at what you want to work on in terms of rhythm, soloing or improvisation. Which styles you are familiar with or which you would like to learn to play. These lessons are ideal for you if you want to broaden your knowledge of the guitar or if it feels like you've reached a plateau you can't get past.
