Learn to play the piano in a way that respects both classical and jazz.

From 59 C$ /h

It is my conviction that the most pleasure can be obtained from playing the piano when you can not only reproduce a piece but also improvise with it. Interpreting and re-enacting a classical piece gives a great kick, but on the other hand it is really useful to get a dose of insight into harmony in order to learn to play more efficiently from the outside, or to make your own variation of it. And I think this can be taught right away on the keyboard for the beginner or the advanced, with whatever piece you like to hear, of whatever genre. I like to devote myself to such a piece and bring in some music theory and tricks that I discovered in the jazz world, intertwined with the classical method as the academy offers it! As far as I'm concerned, it is precisely this combination of reproduction and improvisation that gives the pianist the ultimate freedom! To be honest, it took me many years to discover all kinds of things and now I want to share this!

About Me

Intussen pakweg 15 jaar geleden beëindigde ik de academie met een goed, doch gemengd gevoel. Ik kon na lang oefenen enkele moeilijkere stukken naspelen, maar wist eerlijk gezegd niet altijd waarom ik zou verder oefenen. Ik bleef wat spelen nadien en zoeken: mijn interesse ging gaandeweg naar componisten zoals Mussorgsky, Scriabin, ... Waarom was me toen niet duidelijk. Ik begon dan op dag meer naar jazz te luisteren en wou het ook naspelen. Het voelde even als compleet opnieuw beginnen Alweer een lange weg te gaan. Echter, nooit was mijn interesse groter dan nu in piano en muziek in het algemeen. Oorzaak daarvan was het mezelf verdiepen in harmonieleer, akkoordenleer, soorten toonladders, de jazz-aanpak van piano spelen die toch wat complementair staat op de klassieke aanpak staat zoals de academie ze me leerde. Beter weten wat je speelt, snappen waarom je iets mooi vindt, makkelijker moeilijke zaken van buiten leren en improviseren plots haalbaar zien zijn er het dankbare resultaat van voor mij persoonlijk. Dit wil ik delen.

Dear music lovers,

Always wanted to discover the wonderful sounds of the piano? I offer piano lessons for young and old! No prior knowledge? No problem, together we will start a fun course from scratch. The musical alphabet is taught at your own pace and you'll be playing some of your favorite songs in no time. Chord learning also possible.
In my home there is both an advanced electric piano, ideal for experimenting with different sound effects, and an acoustic piano.
For the younger musicians: songs can also be learned through play, dance and singing. Songs are taught in a creative way!

We listen to your wishes and make a plan, taking into account your agenda.

I offer lessons in packages of five or ten lessons, but also a single lesson.
Lessons at home possible or at my home in Aardenburg (Netherlands)

Classical, pop, a touch of jazz, ...? You are welcome with me!

Musical greetings,
Leila

PIANO

Foundation
First we start with the music theory, melody and chords. These are the essential building blocks for making music.

Style
Next we apply stylistic tools to bring the music to life. This could include jazz chords, blues riffs, walking bass lines, and more.

Skills

We learn the skills (soloing, ear training, accompaniment, improvisation, lead sheets, analysis...)

Following this approach, you will finally understand the music that you are playing, and you will be able to apply the techniques to hundreds of other songs.

CVT COACHING

Hi! I am Tine, a singer, voice teacher and vocal coach. I am passionate about helping singers to make the most of their singing practice so they can thrive, grow, and become the powerful performers and communicators the world needs today.

I can help you train your voice and keep it healthy, develop your own unique sound, sing across different styles, manage performance anxiety, be authentic on stage, deliver powerful presentations, make more efficient goals and help you reach them.

It is possible to create all the sounds from all the styles / genres in a healthy way!

CVT METHOD?

Singing is not that difficult and everybody can learn to sing. CVT divideds the singing techniques into four main subjects. By combining elements of these four subjects, you can produce precisely the sounds you want. You will also be able to pinpoint your specific problems and mistakes, and you can focus on which techniques you wish to work on.

The four main subjects are:

The three overall principles – to ensure healthy sound production
The four vocal modes – to choose the ‘gear’ you want to sing in.
Sound colours – to make the sound lighter or darker.
Effects – to achieve specific sound effects.

Hey,
My name is Jasper and besides guitar lessons I also give private lessons in solfège!

For me it is important that you can develop your music knowledge in a motivating private lesson where the focus is on your interests.

In these lessons we can go through all the principles of music theory, from learning to read your first notes to chord theory to scales and beyond.
The lessons are for students of all ages and all levels.

I myself studied at the conservatory in Rotterdam and in Ghent and have been active as a professional musician for several years. I have 10 years of experience as a private teacher.

Lessons take place in Gentbrugge near the Keizerpark.
We can determine the exact time of the lesson together. All very flexible.

Does this seem like something for you?
Don't hesitate to send me a message.

Hope to see you soon!
Jasper

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.

Tailor-made cello lessons for all ages and levels!
Currently via webcam

I studied at the conservatories of Antwerp and Ghent and obtained my master's degree as a performing musician and my diploma in specific teacher training. In addition to experience as a performing musician, I am also active as a teacher of solfège and cello. I have experience as a teacher with children and adults.

Would you like to learn to play the cello? Or would you like to improve your technique? Be sure to send me a message and we will make a schedule based on your wishes, agenda and interests! Being able to read notes is not a must, we can also tackle this during the lessons.

Solfège and music theory lessons are also possible!

Lessons for all ages. Harp, piano, music theory.

I graduated from the KMC Gent and have a career/experience of more than 40 years.
I also followed yoga, mindfulness and kinesiology courses.
The combination of playing an instrument with mindfulness opens up many possibilities.

During the lessons for harp or piano you learn the necessary technique, and musicality is taken into account.
The better the technical skill, the more fluidly the musicality can unfold.
No previous knowledge of ear training is required for the instrument. Gradually you learn to read the notes.

For those who wish, I teach General Musical Education / Slofège.
Here you practice extra on reading, rhythm, general & specific hearing exercises, and theoretical knowledge.

Those who are going to higher music studies and experience a gap in music theory can come to me for specific training. I also guide students for solfège who are taking their entrance exam for KMC and also during their student trajectory. Here is more explanation.

The lessons are individual and adapted to each student.

For toddlers aged 4 to 6 who are learning to play the piano, I follow a method based on a musical fairy tale.
It is a method that meets the child's world of experience.
They discover the possibilities of the instrument and the way of writing songs. Step by step they learn to play and sing songs on the piano.

For harp I can advise to start at 6 years. Fingers at 4 years are still too tender to pluck strings. 6 years is a better age to start harp playing. They play on a small instrument that is appropriate for their age.

For children who start from the age of 7, I use a different method book for piano and the child's world of experience is also taken into account.

For children who start playing the harp at that age, the method book is also aimed at the child.

The method books are therefore tailored to the age and capabilities of the child, teenagers and adults.

For students at the university of applied sciences/KMC; Royal Conservatory of Music who are pursuing professional music studies, the subject 'solfège' is included in the curriculum. In the event of deficiencies in this subject, specific needs are addressed.
Both theory, lecture in G and F clef, performance of rhythm in all time signatures, rhythm dictation, intonation training, intonation dictation, recognition of intervals melodic and harmonic, rhythmic-melodic dictation can be updated to make up for deficiencies.

I can guide the student in both music as a hobby and professionally.

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.

The lessons will be held in English or in Italian.

My name is Andre. I'm a professional musician with more than 10 years in the field. Despite Jazz being the main focus of my study and practice I've learned to love all genres and absorb each unique values and strengths. Having them integrated in the musical projects I've created or participated on. Projects which revolve around Jazz, Pop, Rock, Psychedelic, Electronic and Reggae.
Throughout my professional career I've worked with music schools and private students (+200). During this years I've encountered a plethora of different kinds of students, all levels ranging from kids to seniors and even a good quantity of autistic or down syndrome students, which always made me more and more interested in the art of teaching and helping people grow, by balancing challenge and empathy.

My lessons are characterized by a practical approach combined with a theoretical component, that always caters to the student's interests, stimulating their musical taste and creativity. For this, I like to go across the board with disciplines such as:
Musical Theory
Technique
Ear training
Performance
Composition
Improvisation
Band/project guidance
Study methodoly
Reportoire

My main objectives as a mentor are:

- To captivate students with music and their learning process

- To stimulate healthy learning methods based on their own goals

- To develop the spirit and discipline of self-learning.

Frequency, duration, and format depend on each student's goals.

I offer piano and music theory lessons for children, teenagers, and adults of all levels, from complete beginners to advanced students. Lessons can focus on classical, jazz, and pop music, depending on the student’s interests and goals.

I have experience teaching in different music schools as well as through private lessons, and I have worked with a variety of piano methods and pedagogical approaches. I also have experience teaching music theory and ensemble classes.

In my lessons, students can learn piano technique, music reading, rhythm, musical expression, improvisation, and music theory. I adapt each lesson to the student’s age, level, and objectives, whether they want to start from scratch, improve their technique, prepare for exams, or simply enjoy playing music.

My goal is to create a supportive and motivating atmosphere in which students feel challenged, make steady progress, and develop confidence at the piano while enjoying the learning process.
