Theory, Harmony, and Composition – Using examples from Classical to Pop and Jazz music to learn how to use harmony in a functional but yet free and creative way.

Hi there! My name is Norica. I am a pianist and a piano teacher from Tokyo.

Just quickly to the point: My approach is holistic and systematic. It uses lots of fun exercises and nice educational materials from Japan in addition to the Internationally recognized standard books. (Don't worry, you don't have to understand Japanese!) You learn not only how to play piano but also how music works- music theory.

I know what my students are good at and not so good at right off the bat. That's why I can tailor the lesson plans to their goals and needs.

Also, if you like to take an ABRSM exam, the syllables will be tailored accordingly. So what will be tested on the day of the exam is integrated into the lessons and my class/lesson offers all-round preparation for the exam. I have helped my students pass G1, 3, 5 and 6 with a good score.

Another important aspect of my lesson is to focus on improving cognitive skills - increasing memory, right-hand-left-hand-coordination, sustained attention, nonverbal communication, and a feeling of independence and freedom.

I do so with unique materials from Japan and fun training.

Currently students from 4 to 76 years old are taking my lessons. As an educator, I am committed to the process of learning while making lessons enjoyable and constructive.

Please drop me a line if you're interested. If you have any questions about the lesson, feel free to ask.

I will be happy to answer all your questions!

Thank you

Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced player, I am here to guide you through your own musical journey and help you reach the level that you aim for. I am a classically trained guitarist with several years of experience and through professional guidance and lessons adapted to your own personality, we can discover your creative side.

My aim is to help students acquire a correct technique and deep understanding of music and expression, which will help them perform important pieces of the classical guitar repertoire, as well as songs and pieces of different genres.

I started playing classical guitar at the age of 10 and from the age of 14, with the supervision of my teacher, I have been helping and guiding younger guitar students, giving me a hands-on experience in teaching from an early age. In 2019, I obtained my soloist diploma from the Hellenic Conservatory of Music and Arts, giving me the right to teach and since then I have been teaching privately. Currently, I am studying with professor Pavel Steidl, at the Royal Conservatoire of the Hague and I have been attending a Music Pedagogy course, as well as courses in Early Music.

Are you looking for piano lessons for your child(ren) but don't know which teacher to trust?
The first music classes for a young student are always the most important, often determining whether the child will love the instrument or not, so they require special attention. Pretty scary, I imagine!

So, hello there! My name is Gina, and I am a specialized piano teacher in music education for children, with more than 7 years of experience teaching young pupils.
I have worked with dozens of piano beginners, ensuring they have the best start in their musical journey. By following various teaching methods that have been proven to positively impact children's overall music education, I make sure that my pupils remain interested and learn a lot from the very beginning!

You can book a first lesson where you—the parents—can also be present during the class. Who knows? Maybe you'll learn something new too!

See you soon!

I hope to share the joy of playing the double bass and the piano through teaching. It is so pleasant to make music and I wish to let more people know about it.
The classes are very flexible. You can expect leisure music playing but also intensive trainings. Lessons will be designed according to students’ intentions. I am able to teach in Cantonese, Mandarin and English. Feel free to reach out :)

I have been playing the double bass for more than 10 years and have recently obtained my master degree in double bass from Royal Conservatory of The Hague.
I started playing the piano when I was 10. On top of classical, I also play a lot of Christian and pop music on the piano, which I am also happy to teach.

Whether you are a music enthusiast who would love to play your favourite songs on the piano, an experienced musician looking to take the next step into your expressiveness and confidence when playing, or a student who needs to learn or reinforce music theory, you are in the right place!

I'm Irene Martínez, a pianist and recent graduate of the Master of Music program at Codarts University of the Arts, and I would love for you to be my next student. I have previous experience teaching piano at different levels to people of many ages (children, teenagers, and adults), because I'm passionate about sharing my love of music and I believe that, with the right approach, everyone can be capable of expressing themselves through music.

As a pianist, I have performed solo concerts of classical music, and also being part of ensembles, from chamber music to contemporary and other genres. I adapt my lessons and approach to the student's particular needs, so:

- If you are already a pianist with some experience who wants to develop certain technical aspects and delve much deeper into musical expression...
- If you are a beginner, or someone who wants to pick up playing again after a long time...
- If you are interested in learning music theory in a much more efficient and fun way, relating everything you learn to your favourite music...
- Either you want to prepare an entrance exam to pursue music in a professional way; or you want to keep it as a hobby...

...my lessons are definitely for you!

I speak fluent Spanish, English, and French; so if you want to have lessons in one of these languages, don't hesitate to contact me! :)

I am a multi-instrumentalist and composer who just finished a Master's degree in Jazz Saxophone at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague. I have experience playing in a variety of ensembles, ranging from classical orchestras to jazz big bands.
With these lessons, you will learn not only the technique of the instrument, but also how to play any genre you like. You will also learn how to improvise within a style if you wish. The lessons are fully adaptable to each student.
I also offer jazz theory and jazz composition lessons.

Istanbul Lute (Lavta) & Oud Lessons – Greek & Ottoman Music

Hi! My name is Kyriakos, I'm 29 years old and I'm a musician and teacher. I studied at Codarts University of the Arts and my main focus is on Greek traditional music and Classical Ottoman music.

I offer lessons in Instanbul lute (Lavta) and oud, for all levels — from complete beginners to more advanced players.

During the lessons, we can work on things like:
Maqam Theory
repertoire from both Greek and Turkish traditions
Technique and playing
Improvisation
Music theory
Reading and understanding sheet music

My teaching approach:
I try to adapt the lessons to each student. Everyone learns in a different way, so I try to find an approach that feels natural and enjoyable for you, rather than simply following the same method with everyone.

I'm a patient and positive person, and I want the lessons to be a relaxed space where you can learn, ask questions and enjoy playing music.

Lessons can take place at my place or at your home, depending on what works best for you.

Whether you are just starting out, already play an instrument, or simply want to explore Greek or Ottoman music, feel free to send me a message. I'd be happy to hear what you are looking for and see how I can help.

Moreover, if you are interested in this repertoire and you play another istryment, I can also teach the style and the specific ornamentation of it.

Everyone is welcome, including complete beginners!

Learning and playing string instruments can be incredibly fun and fulfilling, but it is not an easy process, and it requires discipline, structure and proper guidance. I offer an experience tailored to each student's specific needs and learning style, and I focus in depth on a variety of topics that I consider to be fundamental to achieving a high level of performance and interpretation on violin and viola; such as basic music theory, music history, a well-rounded and versatile technique, and collaborative music-making.
My lessons are suitable for beginners and advanced students of all ages. I rely on a variety of teaching materials; some that are intended for children, others that are made for adult learners, pedagogues and performers.
I consider myself to be a rather involved teacher; I am attentive, I am available for resolving issues and clarifying doubts outside of lesson time, I help students with instrument procurement and maintenance, and my homework and instructions are clear and easy to follow.
