Private lessons from a very experienced bassist with over 10 years of experience performing internationally and more than 5 years as a teacher. The lessons are for all levels, it is not necessary to have previous experience. In the lessons, we'll learn the instrument and musical theory but the main focus is to play and have fun doing so. In my experience, that's the key to success.

I'm mainly focused on Jazz music but I've performed several different styles of music and the lessons can be tailored to your musical interests. I've learned to play this instrument with the best teachers in Europe but I also studied in NYC with Jazz legends such as Buster Williams, Reggie Workman and David Wong.

From 8 to 80, everyone can learn to play the piano. Teaching with pop music and all kinds of styles between jazz and classical music. Individual lessons of an hour or half an hour. The intention is that a pupil also learns to study and gain insight into the musical structures (simple).

Looking for educational, versatile and fun piano lessons? Look no further. My name is Áron and I am a 26-year-old performing artist and educator from Hungary. I have been playing the piano for over 18 years and I have taught students of all ages, from beginners to advanced musicians.

What can you expect from your piano classes with me?

My main goal, apart from teaching the technique, theory and repertoire, is to show students how much joy music can bring to their life and to let them expand their own musical ideas. You will be able to discover the importance of musicality, artistry, the role of music in our life, the attitude of playing, listening, composing and experimenting with new sounds.

STRUCTURE BY LEVEL

Beginner*
I have got my own techniques of teaching kids (lots of colors, shapes, children songs), as well as adult beginners. What’s most important in this stage is to let the student enjoy the sound of the piano, and be satisfied and motivated after a lesson. Together we will work on a certain repertoire that will help you improve your technique and hearing skills, develop your musical knowledge and creativity.

Intermediate*
With students of this level, we will work more on perfecting the harmony, technique, and transcription. You will learn how to improvise a more challenging repertoire that requires the practice of both technique and music analysis.

Advanced*
Depending on your goal, I am going to help you develop a certain part of your piano playing. We are going to dive into details of harmony (jazz harmony), improvisational skills, compositional skills, stage skills and more.

*Classes can be tailored to your needs and particular areas of interest if needed.

I hope you are excited to explore music together! :)
Feel free to reach me at if you have any questions.

Do you want to teach (electric) piano, keyboard or synthesizer? Then you have come to the right place!
Gosse (1989) has been giving piano lessons for more than 10 years and we are proud to announce that almost all students who start the lessons actually continue. The lessons are primarily focused on fun and development.
He knows from experience that the most important ingredients for learning to play the piano as effectively as possible are:

1: The pleasure of playing
The fun is increased by learning to play numbers that the student experiences as beautiful or fun and that bring the right degree of challenge. Gosse mainly specializes in Pop, Soul, R&B, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Funk, Bossa-nova, Latin and Light classical styles. Learn to play your favorite songs!

2: Learning in the way that best suits the student
There are three different ways in which someone can learn to play the piano: sheet music, by ear and (the relatively new way) through software programs such as Synthesia. The correct method differs from person to person.

3: Knowing the music theory / shortcuts
The three ways you can learn to play the piano described above help you press the right keys at the right time. But it can be easier. Namely by knowing the underlying music theory and / or the shortcuts!

Gosse also teaches music production (songwriting and producing). He is most specialized in the Logic Pro and Ableton studio programs. He also helps vocalists who want to accompany themselves on the piano.
Feel free to contact us for a trial lesson, for a more detailed version of the above 3 points or if you want to know more!

Hey there! In my lessons, what you want is the most important. That's why we create together a plan of study with ideas, goals and subjects to reach out our dream to make music (that's also my dream)

Nevertheless, I can give you an overview of the content:

I divide the music theory in two: Technical and Musical.
Technical Theory regarding all the concepts and information related to music, and Musical Theory regarding the ideas and concepts to help us understand and improve the performance of music. Besides that, we look to harmony in a functional, rhythmical and organic way. We learn and approach music from the first lesson, looking at it from different angles (understanding rhythm and essence of a song for example). All this plus a nice diet of assignments and exercises: D

Furthermore, we put especial attention to enjoying music. That means playing but also listening music! For me, that's one of the best ways to learn :)

And of course, we learn as well by making mistakes, so at the end it's all about fun and trying things out;)

Remember: "True success isn't just getting what you want in life - it's liking what you get";)

Learning to play the bass is fun and will quickly make you a wanted musician in bands of all genres.
I would like to help you with that!

First we will talk about your musical preferences and see what an achievable goal would be. That could be playing the bass line of your favorite song, building up a musical repertoire to join a band or many other things.
Most importantly I would like to deliver you the joy that bass playing and music making brings to me!

Also ear training, music theory, technique and if interested piano playing and composition will be part of our lessons.
Those skills are important for any musician, no matter if Pop/Rock/Jazz/Funk/Hip Hop or classical music.

If you are interested feel free to book a lesson and I am looking forward to meeting you!

Looking for guitar lessons? You've come to the right place!

Whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced player looking to take your skills to the next level, I've got you covered. My teaching approach is all about tailoring the lessons to your needs and interests, so you can learn at your own pace and enjoy the process.

In our lessons, we'll dive into the practical side of playing, covering techniques, chord progressions, rhythm patterns, and melodic improvisation. You'll get to jam along to awesome songs and exercises that will help you develop a solid foundation in jazz, rock, funk, and blues.

For the ones interested, we'll also explore the theoretical side of music. I'll guide you through scales, modes, harmony and improvisation. This knowledge will not only improve your playing but also give you the freedom to create your own music and express yourself on the guitar.

Whether you dream is performing on stage, jamming with friends or simply strumming your favorite tunes in your bedroom, I'll help you reach your goals and become the guitarist you want to be.

Music theory can be a very overwhelming thing, when there are so many different ways to explain a concept, a chord, a system, an song... I will help you lay down a steady foundation of music theory and ear-training, explain the complexities with personal approaches and help you navigate and analyse the music you love.

I will use a basis of jazz theory which is also most used in pop-music. If you already play an instrument, this class will help you to deeper understand what you are playing and why it works musically. And any suggestions, wishes and dreams are welcome!
