Hi! I'm Timo,
nice that you made it to me!

If you've found pleasure in playing the piano, you've come to the right place.
If you want to get started, I'll be happy to show you the basics. If you've been playing for some time, I like to pick up where you're at.

Since 2012 I have been teaching piano / keyboards at private and public music schools and have been able to work with countless students from young to old. I learned how to respond to each student differently, because nobody learns the same way. My youngest students also benefit from this at school and are usually ahead of their classmates in music lessons. So I'm all the more pleased that my enthusiasm for music is being transmitted to my students.
Since I don't want to put a genre stamp on myself and have worked with a ton of different musicians over the years, I've acquired a wide range of styles over the years.

Experience:
In 2011 Timo took first place in the category '' Best Keyboarder "and" Best Instrumental Soloist "at the German Rock and Pop Prize - an extraordinary success that encouraged him to devote himself entirely to music and to follow his calling.

In 2013 he started his studies at the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg - first with a focus on piano and later on producing. During his studies Timo worked with experienced musicians from all over the world and was trained by well-known lecturers such as Prof. Mathias Leber, Prof. Alexander Päffgen and Prof. Florian Sitzmann.

In 2015/16 he worked as part of some internships at Naidoo / Herberger Produktion in various recording studios. An intellectually as well as practically valuable experience in which Timo was able to deal intensively with studio work and expand his know-how for music productions.

In 2019/20 Timo wrote the score for "Line Walker 2: Invisible Spy" (Shaw Brothers, Babieka) and "Declared Legally Dead" (Emperor Motion Pictures) together with Yusuke Hatano. In the games division, he composed the music for the RPG “The Revenant Prince” (Nomina Games). In addition, Timo works with bands and artists and is involved in a wide range of TV and advertising areas.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at any time. :)

Best regards,
Timo

About Me

Since 2012 I have been teaching piano, music-production and band coaching at private and public music schools and have been able to work with countless students from young to old. In doing so, I learned to approach each student differently, because no one learns the same way. My youngest students also benefit from this in school and are usually ahead of their classmates in music lessons. I am all the more pleased that my enthusiasm for music is transferred to my students.
Since I don't want to put a genre stamp on myself and have worked with a lot of different musicians over the years, I've acquired a wide range of styles over the years.

Education

During his studies, Timo worked with experienced musicians from all over the world and was trained by renowned lecturers such as Prof. Mathias Leber, Prof. Alexander Päffgen and Prof. Florian Sitzmann, among others.

In 2015/16 he worked in various recording studios in the course of several internships at Naidoo/Herberger Produktion. An intellectually as well as practically valuable experience in which Timo could deal intensively with studio work and expand his know-how for music productions.

In 2019/20 Timo wrote the film music for "Line Walker 2: Invisible Spy" (Shaw Brothers, Babieka) and "Declared Legally Dead" (Emperor Motion Pictures) together with Yusuke Hatano.

I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age.

I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

Hello! I've been teaching continuously for over 10 years, and I'd like to explain what you can expect from a class with me.

Personalized approach: The most important thing is to know what you want to achieve. I will tailor the lessons to your needs: playing for pleasure at home is not the same as preparing for entrance exams (although always with the same rigor). Your goals will influence the methodology, the organization of your studies, the repertoire, and so on.

Relaxed (but rigorous) environment: Once you've defined your goals, classes will be dynamic and pressure-free. Note! "Relaxed" doesn't mean undemanding; we'll just avoid military methods—especially given my personality and sense of humor.

Music, not just notes: My methods are very dynamic, with a special emphasis on hearing and musicality. No "read, play, and turn the page." I avoid approaches obsessed with reading sheet music without memorizing, listening, or understanding what is being played. I want you to own your performance and make artistic decisions. Warning! I might even make you sing.

No stylistic barriers: Thanks to my training in Jazz and Modern Music, I give equal importance to all genres. Adapting to your tastes, we'll go from baroque to blues, from Haydn to bebop... or even Michael Jackson. Why not?

If you identify with this approach, contact me! Learning the cello is a pleasure, and I'd love to share it with you!

I provide fun and personalized piano lessons, by adapting lessons based on your proficiency(beginner, intermediate or advanced), age group, and goals (hobby and leisure, grade exams). For beginners, I start with the basics of the piano and begin with teaching Tutor books. Not only will you be playing songs and pieces in no time, but you will be building a strong foundation of note-reading, music theory,sight-reading, technique, and more!
My approach is to teach very thorough foundations so that my students are well prepared for exams and performances such as Trinity, ABRSM, School/ church performances

Get in touch to start your lessons! ( Please note: There may be a waiting list)

I am a Spanish pianist and composer (MMus graduate from Codarts Rotterdam in both directions) with many years of teaching experience, and also very active in performing in various contexts.

I give private piano lessons for all levels and styles (classical, jazz, Latin, new age, pop...), as well as music theory, composition and improvisation lessons. My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student.

The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup.

I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.

- Express music with clarity and confidence

Whether you are:

According to your musical level, I will guide you through basic daily exercises using a clear step‐by‐step method:

Hey there! Do you want to start a new hobby? Do you already play the piano and you want to improve your skills with a creative approach to the instrument? Then I think I can help you!
I can teach you basic and advanced concepts of any style on the piano (classical, jazz, pop-rock...), and if you like improvisation and jazz then we get along even better!
I offer very personalized classes based on your level and interests. My approach to teaching strongly takes the student's CREATIVITY into account, but without forgetting that a good knowledge of MUSIC THEORY and PIANO TECHNIQUE are essential.

About my philosophy in teaching music:
In a creative field like music, education is a delicate matter. I firmly believe that a teacher must do everything possible to avoid suppressing the student’s personal voice. Each of us — regardless of age or skill level — has a unique approach to music, even before touching the instrument!
My goal is to help students discover their own musical identity at the piano, drawing on my experience and offering a solid theoretical foundation tailored to their interests and level.
That said, as in any discipline, there are no shortcuts in music. Passion and dedication are essential to achieving meaningful results. Furthermore, a solid technical and theoretical foundation is indispensable, no matter your musical interests.
I look forward to sharing my deep passion for music with you. Feel free to reach out for more information!

This course is designed to build skills in either playing the cello, music theory, ear training, or all three! If you are seeking to learn cello this course is a great place to start. I am most familiar with the suzuki books, however I am dedicated to making cello and music as widely available as I can, so if access to sheet music is a challenge I am open to pursuing alternate lesson plans.
If you are a current music student who isn't seeking to learn cello but would like support in Music Theory or Aural Skills (also often referred to as Ear Training), I am more than happy to provide tutoring in those subjects.

In class we work on songs, chords, rhythm, technique and improvisation, always in a practical and musical way. Lessons are adapted to your level and goals, whether you are a beginner or already have some experience.
My goal is simple: help you understand the piano, enjoy music and feel confident playing.
Feel free to send me a message and tell me what music you love!

I offer fully online piano lessons in English for teenagers and adults who want thoughtful, structured and serious musical training.

My teaching is rooted in the Russian academic piano tradition, but the lessons are not limited to a narrow repertoire path. We can work with classical pieces or other music that is meaningful to the student — including modern, film, anime or jazz-oriented material — as long as the work remains serious, attentive and musically thoughtful.

In my lessons, technique, reading, coordination, sound, rhythm, phrasing, memory and expression are connected into one clear musical system. The aim is not only to learn pieces, but to understand how music works from inside: how the ear, mind, hands, body and musical intention come together.
I help students develop a deeper relationship with music as a living language — with direction, structure, breathing, sound, emotion and inner logic. The goal is for the student to play not mechanically, but with understanding, freedom, taste and personal expression.

I work best with motivated students: serious teenagers, advanced amateurs, returning adults, and learners preparing demanding repertoire, auditions or international exams, including ABRSM. In every case, the focus is on building a complete musical foundation: technique, sound, understanding, expression and confident independent practice.

I am a concert pianist and piano educator with more than 20 years of teaching experience. I studied at the Moscow Conservatory College and the Gnessin Russian Academy of Music, taught at university level, performed internationally and recorded two CDs for Melodiya.

The lessons are structured, precise and demanding, but clear and respectful. My aim is to help each student not only play better, but understand music more deeply and gradually become more independent, intelligent and artistic at the piano.

Hey there!

My name is Dominic, and I'll be providing you with everything you need to reach your musical goals, whichever those may be.

These lessons consist of piano tutoring, in which we can go over any style you may be interested in. I'll also be providing any sheet music and exercises you may need or I may think are necessary.

I'm currently a piano and music theory teacher at AMT, which is an institution near my hometown. I've got a full 8 year music course (mostly focused on classical piano), which I successfully completed in 2025. I've also got a year of music teaching experience on my shoulders, as well as plenty of experience helping younglings and less experienced musicians with any difficulties they may have had over the years.

I'm currently offering online lessons and lessons at your location, as I'm going to be moving soon. Once things have settled better, other options may open up.
