Jazz/pop/groove/songwriting pianolessons for all levels of skill and all ages by ex-conservatory student!

Von 56.8 $ /Std

I've been playing the piano with great passion for 18 years, and over the past 5 years, alongside my studies and music-making endeavors, I've been teaching multiple students ranging from 7 to 50 years old. My expertise lies in truly understanding music theory and composing and improvising music. Having played in many pop and jazz (big) bands and creating daily compositions for solo piano and bands, I've developed an enthusiasm for these genres that I love to impart to my students. In recent years, I've also been heavily involved in music production, and lessons in this direction are also possible!

I often use theory as a background to contextualize the songs we practice (which are often chosen by the student themselves). I use these songs to convey improvisation and composition skills. Additionally, I believe it's important for the student to develop their own way of learning. I strive to create a free yet disciplined learning environment.

You will start to enjoy playing the piano both during and outside of the time of the class. You will learn how to be able to perform in a way that inspires your audience. I will teach you the basic music theory without going way deep into it because this is a performance class but you will learn what you need to excel in your performance. Additionally, I will teach you the principles of aesthetics of playing the piano. The repertoire that I focus on is mostly Western modern and Classical music, but we can also work on some famous Persian and Turkish pieces if you like. Of course, you are also always welcome to bring your favorite pieces to the class. Contact me for availability.

Hello everyone!
My name is Davor, professional jazz musician and music teacher. I've been teaching for 9 years and I've met students of many different levels (from beginners to advanced), so everyone is welcome!

Besides jazz I can teach you many different styles, such as rock, blues, pop, funk, latin and brazilian music. I completed my master's degree in jazz guitar at the Conservatory of Amsterdam, so if you're interested, I can help you with composing, music theory, harmony and rhythm.

My concept gives you extensive knowledge and tools, so that you can continue to develop your guitar skills independently in a few months. Lessons take place at my home in Amsterdam Noord or online.
Possible languages during the lessons are Dutch, English and German. For more information please contact me.

In class we will be working on vocal techniques, composition writing, chord progressions and structures and songwriting. You can bring your own songs to work on or we can work on covers. I have finished a master graduation at Berklee Conservatorium of Music in Contemporary Performance with a concentration in production so I can also help you with recording your music.

I'm offering lessons for anyone interested in learning how to improvise, regardless of the instrument you play or the style you would like to improvise in.
Even if you have no or little theory knowledge yet, I have a way of getting you started with improvisation and then teaching you everything theoretical you need to know.

Topics might include:
- Improvising based on the melody of a song or simple motives
- Common song forms for improvisation
- Theory: Harmony, Rhythm, Ear Training
- Jazz specific: Bebop and Modern Language
- Listening to and understanding solos of great improvisers

HI! I am Lenart and I am currently a student at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. I have been playing the trumpet for more than 15 years and have experience in many different music genres like Jazz, Pop, Classical, Baroque. I graduated from the Academy of Music in Ljubljana. I used to do a lot of teaching (young to old) when I was still residing in Slovenia. My desired goal as a teacher is to show you an easy and fun way to master a new skill or some new aspects of it, but not to fill your head with unnecessary things that will make your progress hard and slow.

I have studied with some of the biggest names of classical and jazz trumpet worldwide like: Omar Tomasoni, Miroslav Petkov, Reinhold Friedrich, Chris Colleti and many more.

Feel relaxed when singing and finally reach those high notes confidently.
Have fun and enjoy the experience of making music together.

I have been working as a singing teacher since 2011 and I'd love to pass on my knowledge and experience as a performer and songwriter to you. In addition to my Bachelor and Master degrees in Jazz/Pop Voice Performance and Vocal Education (cities of study: Berlin, Mainz, Stuttgart, Lisbon) I regularly attend courses of the newest programs and voice research to constantly enrich your lesson with findings from modern vocal pedagogy.

When planning your lesson I always take into account your personal strengths to help you find the best way to healthy, effortlessly and joyful singing.

Topics offered:

Posture and breath-support
Expanding vocal range
Increasing volume and stamina
Singing without a "break" in the voice

The piano is one of the most universal instruments. As a piano player you can be your own orchestra and play as a soloist, but you can also make beautiful music or accompany ensembles, in any musical style.

In my lessons I want to offer the student a broad foundation on the piano:

learn to read notes, play and interpret existing pieces of music
learn to listen carefully, play it by ear and after a while learn to make your own piano part
playing with chord progressions, gaining insight into harmony and chord theory
learn to improvise and come up with your own pieces
teamwork, because this way you learn to listen even better

My own roots lie in classical music, which provides a good technical basis for the instrument.

Ever since I was a student, I have enjoyed making music the most when you discover various music genres (such as classical, jazz, pop, world music) for yourself. This way you learn to connect these different musical worlds. As a teacher, I want to pass on all these possibilities to the student, so that after playing the piano for a while, he/she can determine his/her own path.

I have been studying drums for nearly 15 years and have extensive knowledge across a wide range of musical genres. While this class is listed as focusing on jazz music, I am more than happy to explore other styles based on your interests.

We can work together to identify what you’d like to focus on, or if you prefer a more structured approach, I can provide exercises, play-alongs, and creative activities for both our lessons and your independent practice. My goal is to create a dynamic and engaging learning experience that suits your individual needs.

Hey! My name is Daan and I am a keyboard player, producer and songwriter and I am happy to teach piano at your home in Amsterdam.

I graduated from the Conservatory of Amsterdam pop department and am also very active in bands (as a keyboardist, singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer) and as a producer/songwriter in various genres.

As a teacher, I am mainly concerned with what the student wants to achieve and what can be gotten out of the student. Do you want to learn that one new song by Billie Eilish, or an advanced piece by Stevie Wonder; I can always help you. The great thing about music is that you can learn and perform it at all kinds of levels. My job is to find the right level for the right student, so that progress can be made at the same time as there is fun during the lessons.

In addition, I find it important that my students not only play the piano, but also understand the music and build up a knowledge of the music theory behind the pieces. This has helped me a lot to quickly make big steps as a musician.

You can also contact me if you write songs yourself and maybe even produce them that you want to take to a higher level. I can give you all kinds of tips to get the best out of your own compositions through my experience as a songwriter/producer.

I hope to see you soon!

What can you expect?
- For beginners: Reading notes, sense of rhythm and a playful introduction to the piano.
-For advanced students: Interpretation, expression, expanding repertoire and stage preparation.
- For children: Learning through play, with plenty of room for personal input and imagination.

Music is more than just the right notes; it's a language, an emotion, and a way to express yourself. Whether you're a hyperactive child finding peace at the keyboard, an adult finally wanting to learn that Chopin piece, or a teenager eager to play the latest pop hit: my lessons are for you.

I'm Catherine, a classically trained pianist with a broad repertoire of over 50 pieces, ranging from Chopin and Rachmaninoff to film scores and contemporary pop. My strength lies in conveying the EMOTION of music, not just the technique.

In a world with an increasing number of neurodivergent children—children who think and feel differently—I believe it's crucial to reach them in their own way. Music can spark their creativity and help them feel empowered to make their own choices. Whether you're looking for peace, a challenge, or passion, I'll tailor the lesson to your needs.
