About Me

Giving private lessons allows me to make the teaching much more personal according to the expectations of each student which is a major asset for this course.
Moreover, it is a course that hardly exists in music academies in Brussels and therefore a chance to teach it to my pupils already and already.

Do you have ideas in your head but you still haven't taken the plunge? Whether you are a novice or an experienced musician, I suggest you dive into production with a tailor-made course on Ableton Live software.

I have been a passionate musician and producer for over 10 years (trained guitarist), and I am here to help you discover and master all the subtleties of Ableton.

Who should attend :

- You are a beginner and you want to discover the interface while composing your first song.
- You are an intermediate or experienced user and would like to perfect your skills and learn more advanced techniques.

What you can expect:

For beginners :
> Discovery of the Ableton Live interface while creating your first composition
> Practical approach without theoretical overload
> Optimization of the course according to your objective and your musical desires
> Provision of resources (packs, templates, presets, etc.)

For Intermediate and Advanced Users:
> In-depth analysis of your compositions with personalized feedback
> Fixed weaknesses and improved existing songs
> Exploring new production techniques, sharing tips, shortcuts and templates
> Section on sampling, sound design and mixing

Examples of topics covered:

- Interface: you will learn how to navigate between Audio and MIDI, use the right tools/plugins, create templates and use essential shortcuts.
- Recording: I will explain to you how I go about properly recording voices or instruments while optimizing the acoustics of your room.
- Composition: learning to use virtual instruments, introduction to sound design and exploration of creative composition techniques (no music theory necessary).
- Arrangement: effectively structure a piece like the pros to avoid redundancy.
- Mixing: control of effects, integration of external plugins, mixing techniques.

Adaptability: depending on your progress, your motivations and your musical preferences, I continually adjust the course to target the specific aspects that you wish to explore or strengthen.

If you're interested, send me a message and I'll answer all your questions :)

In these lessons you will learn how to put music on paper yourself. We do this through composing, harmonizing and arranging.

We work progressively on your skills and fine-tuning, so that you can work independently over time.

Max is a visual programming language to create audio (and video) art. Almost like with LEGO, you connect different building blocks with each other and create an audio (or video) circuit.
I have years of experience in making programs in Max and want to share this knowledge. I start from the basics and make sure that the programming is also theoretically substantiated: I want you not only to put something in, but also to understand why something works. That extra knowledge helps you work faster as you move forward.
For a program that focuses more on audio, I use Ableton. I have been using this program for my own music production for about ten years and know the program inside out.

To learn to play the piano well, you have to be passionate! And what better method than by learning your favorite songs! This is exactly what I propose. First, you will learn to play by memory and some easy tricks, then you will learn to play with scores that I will personally write to adapt them perfectly to your level!

I learned by being at the classical academy for 12 years and giving lessons for almost 10 years, that in the end, it is the students who are passionate about the pieces they play, who will become good pianists.
As an additional option, I offer composition and harmony lessons, to ensure that step by step you can compose small pieces up to multi-instrument arrangements.

I am already looking forward to meeting you and starting your classes very soon!

I offer classes in music composition, guitar, music theory, or all three!

I offer advanced lesson in compositions for students who are already writing would like to improve any aspects of their practice, or to revisit fundamentals and find new ways to develop material. I also have a special interest in experimentation and alternative notations so feel free to bring your wildest ideas!

For Guitar:
I work mainly with beginners / improvers, and my approach is to teach the techniques of various artists through learning songs as they were originally played. For fingerpicking this includes for example Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, and many more! Alongside this we will cover the basics of guitar playing, going equally into alternative tunings and extended techniques. I am very patient, and can always find the right way to explain something, so the lessons will move at the ideal pace for you.
