Flute, historical flutes, recorder (with optional music theory)

A partir de 56.05 $ /h

Do you like music? Are you thinking about playing the flute? Or are you already a flute player and you wish to become advanced? Do you need someone to help you to prepare for music exams? I am offering lessons in playing the traverse modern flute as well as historical flutes and music theory at any level, from the beginner to the professional.
This course, based on more than 10 years of experience in teaching, offers private lessons where everyone can find their unique contact with their instrument, deepen their relationship with music and develop a unique way of expressing themselves through music making.
I teach from international method books and adjust my methods to the individual needs of each student. Taking two courses of the Alexander technique also helped me to develop an understanding of the essential connection between the body and our minds. This awareness can be very helpful not only for our musical performances, but also for our everyday lives. I believe that my already 10 years of teaching practice has shaped my teaching into a stage where everyone can learn what they need.
I am looking forward to meeting you in my course!

If you are a beginner, you don't need to bring anything for the first lesson with me. I will let you try and play my instrument. Only then we would discuss your options for buying your instrument. (If you have already bought your instrument, then of course, bring it with you.)

Acerca de mí

Since I was 10 years old, I knew that I wanted to become a professional musician. Music was my passion and my first music teacher was the one responsible for that. She was the first one to show me how much joy music brings into our lives. And she was the one who always supported me and helped me on my musical path. She was the one who showed me that feeling joy in playing music is much more than just to play perfectly, and no one ever was able to convince me about the opposite. Therefore, my greatest wish ever since was to be able to pass this joy of music on, to my students. When I play the flute, I feel freedom. It is my safe world, full of creativity, dreams and story-telling...

During my professional life as a musician and a flute teacher, I learned that enthusiasm is the most important thing in all creative disciplines, in all arts, and we need to cultivate it and treasure it. In my teaching methods, I always want to provide an individual approach to each student and enough support for them to be able to develop their unique relationship with music and with their flute.

Alongside playing music with orchestras and teaching, I have been enthusiastic about chamber music. I have co-founded three ensembles, currently based in The Hague, specialising in historical performance.

Besides music, I am a professional barista - good quality coffee and chocolate are my joy, too, and I love baking cakes and cookies. :-)

I have an understanding for fun, too. I was a leader of summer camps for children for more than 10 years which helped me vastly to develop my communicative skills with children and understanding for their individuals needs.

I started playing the piano when I was 8 years old. By that time I already could feel I would become a professional musician and teacher. I got my first bachelor in piano in 2007. When I was 13 years old, I started having harpsichord lessons and expanding my knowledge of classical and early music. In 2012 I got my bachelor degree in harpsichord and in 2014 my master degree at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague. Currently, I’m working with my ensemble, teaching piano and harpsichord, and am now doing my Ph.D. in Performative Arts at Leiden University

I absolutely love to teach and pass my experience as a musician to my students on both instruments. I like to see them improving and have fun while playing.
I work with several ways of teaching, depending on the student level and music background.

Normally I work with piano methods with kids from 9 -12 years old. I can teach music theory if necessary and if it will improve the student’s needs to progress and reach their goals, I do that with pleasure. Harmony and a bit of keyboard improvisation are also very welcome to the class.

My specialty is classical music, more specifically, baroque music, although I have notions of pop, jazz, and improvisation. Because I have sporting and personal training backgrounds, I’m specialized also on correcting postures and eventually avoid or solve pain issues when regarding playing.

Hello, I am Bernat, I come from Barcelona, and I am a professional bassoonist.
If you are interested in learning the bassoon, do not doubt to contact me!

I started learning music when I was five. When I was eight I saw a bassoon for the first time, I felt in love with it and I started having lessons. I love to share my passion with my students.

I have experience teaching kids and adults, and I adapt the lessons to your needs, preferences and level. Either if you want to have a first experience with the bassoon or if you want to improve your level, I am sure we can learn a lot from each other.

I am an experienced orchestra and chamber music player. I got my Bachelor in Historical Bassoon at ESMUC (Barcelona, Spain) and my first Master in Den Haag Koninklijk Conservatorium. Currently, I am studying my second Master in France. I am specialized in historical bassoon performance, so I can teach modern bassoon, but also dulcian, baroque, classical and romantic bassoon.

I can also offer reed making lessons as well as music theory lessons.

My teaching locations are:
- My appartment at Valkenboskwartier.
- The student location.
- Online.

My name is Carla Peña and I come from Barcelona. Since I was a child, music has played an important role in my life. I started learning music when I was 4 years old and cello when at the age of 6. I discovered my love for music and that is what I share with my students.
I have around 15 pupils of all levels and ages and I teach at my own studio (De Constant Rebecquestraat 3) or at your place!
If you are in The Hague area and you want to learn the cello or improve your playing, you are welcome to do lessons with me!

FIRST LESSON:
The first lesson consists of getting to know each other. This is essential to choose the best teaching approach. All the students are unique, that is why I always choose the method that adapts better to your needs. Then, we elaborate a personal plan, depending on your level, expectations, practice time, and taste.

TECHNIQUE:
Learning the proper technique of the instrument is very important to avoid injuries and to be able to express ourselves and perform our musical ideas in a successful way. That is why we learn nice songs in different styles, depending on your taste (from classical to jazz, film music, pop, etc.) and we combine it with cello method books with progressive exercises to improve the cello knowledge.
In the case of young beginners, we also play cello games during the lesson to make the learning experience dynamic and fun! Children can lose attention and get bored very quickly!

Playing together is an essential part of enjoying music. Therefore, the last part of the lesson always consists of playing cello duets and having fun!

ABOUT ME:

I studied my Bachelor in Conservatori Superior del Liceu in Barcelona, with professor Amparo Lacruz. Then, I decided to continue my studies at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague in the class of Michel Strauss and Jan-Ype Nota.
During my studies in The Hague, I did a teaching internship at the Royal Conservatory as a part of their Minor in Music Education. I also taught in several Music Schools during my studies in Spain.
Currently, I teach private students in The Hague and I created a cultural center in The Hague called Pandora Studio.
I play regularly in two chamber music ensembles: Trio Jakob and Azalaïs Quartet.

I have an excellent command of English, and Dutch and a good working knowledge of French. I base my teaching method on Suzuki and Galamian methods, which I combine with a wide repertoire of progressive violin pieces.

Come and have a lesson with me!

Music has always been my biggest passion and I really enjoy sharing it with other people. My main music genres are pop, rnb, ballades, a bit of jazz, and soul.
I can read musical notes, but I mainly play by ear (which can be learned too!). I am into music theory and how it helps to understand what one hears and plays.
When it comes to singing, I know some basic techniques and can help with pitch, harmonizing, control, and feeling comfortable/confident when singing.
I can teach some basics about improvisation and composition

Highly dedicated and passionate teacher.
Age doesn't matter when it comes to learning, just enjoying it. Lessons for beginners to more advanced students.

I like to play, sing and find the most creative solutions to learn quickly within a space reserved for the student's questions and imagination.

As a musician I consider myself a very motivated person to always try new things. I also like to play from old music to contemporary music, so any style is welcome to try.

During my Bachelor's training in Classical Horn I have trained in different educational skills techniques as well as in teaching ensembles and basic conducting.
In addition to horn classes, I can also teach music theory and basic piano skills.

I am very flexible with lesson times, so reaching a common point shouldn't be too difficult.

Highly dedicated and passionate teacher.

Age does not matter when it comes to learning, just enjoying it. Lessons for beginners to more advanced students.
Always trying to keep a creative environment where the students can express themselves in all aspects.
I believe that it is necessary to be constant. The ideal would be one hour or hour and a half a week, but that depends on the student availability. I would provide a personal adaptation.

I like playing games, singing and coming up to most creative solutions for learning fast inside of a save space for questions and imagination of the student. It is very important to motivate the students regarding to their music tastes.

I consider myself an involved and motivated musician. I am constantly trying to learn new styles and enjoy so much doing it. At the moment I am studying my second bachelor degree in music, specifically in Early Music.

I am very flexible with schedules for lessons so coming to a common point should not be very difficult.

My name is Lucía, I have studied my bachelor of classical flute in Granade (Spain) and now I am studying a Master in The Hague.
In my classes I apply different
pedagogical methods such as Dalcroze, integrating movement to help children internalize rhythm
from an early age; Kodály, emphasizing the voice as a fundamental tool in instrumental learning;
and Suzuki, adapting each lesson to the child’s age. Although I have studied these pedagogical
theories, I have found that every student is unique, which has led me to research and combine
different resources in order to find the most effective way to communicate and transmit musical
concepts. Since 2021, I have worked both in music schools and in students’ homes, teaching flute,
music theory, and harmony.
