About Me

For me, teaching is always a lot of fun! Especially, when after my explanation students start to realize how easy it is to do things which they were dreaming about. It also happened to me when I had to deal with the same problems. Since I have always been a classical pianist, it seemed to be impossible to do nontraditional things like improvising, writing music, having fun with other musicians by playing with them, music which we hear right now. The problem is that I didn't have a teacher who would share with me his/her experience, so my way was pretty long. I had to practice really hard and search for solutions at the lowest stages on my own, which caused finding out personal tricks which I am always so happy to share with my pupils. It brings such a joy to watch how students apply my experience and overcome challenges which they were struggling with before.

The story of my classical music development is completely different since I was always very lucky to have the best teachers. Right now I am studying from Naum Grubert who is considered one of the best musicians in Europe. After two years of classes with him, my understanding of music completely changed! Every lesson I receive new discoveries which I am also so happy to share with my students!

Education

I graduated from the specialized music school in Kiev (2007-2018), and right now I am a 3rd-year bachelor student at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam (classical piano department):

Experience / Qualifications

I have been playing the piano from 5 years old. During studying in Kiev I was actively taking part in international projects such as:
• Richter piano competition
• Horowitz piano competition
• International festival "Moscow meets friends" organized by Vladimir Spivakov
• Chamber music festival and masterclasses in Ede organized by Anna Fedorova, etc.
After moving to Amsterdam and starting my study at the conservatory, I gained a lot of experience in pop music by playing at church every Sunday and performing background events. Now I teach private students for both, pop and classical music.

Hi, I'm Kate! I've taught piano, music theory and music composition since 2014, and I'm studying music at masters level at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

I pride myself on my empathetic and patient approach, while also encouraging students to do their best and aim high. My students have gone on to do well in their exams and win competitions.

Don't hesitate to get in touch for a trial lesson! It's never too late to start to learn music, or pick it up again.

My name is Zuzanna, I'm a Polish singing teacher, piano teacher, and music therapist. I'm a graduate of the School of Jazz and Popular Music in Wroclaw (piano class) and the Academy of Music in Katowice - Jazz and Popular Music department in the signing class. I'm a graduate of Music Academy in Wroclaw, my major being Music Therapy.
Music is my passion. Usually, I play the piano and sing at the same time.

My main goals in singing lessons are to develop a passion for singing and to learn to use your voice healthily.
The singing classes include:
- Interpretation of the song
- Articulation and intonation exercises
- Breathing exercises
- Technical exercises (voice production)
- Improvisation
- Singing with accompaniment
If you play the instrument and sing we can also focus on how to combine it.

I offer Piano lessons depending on their skills and needs:
- To people of all ages
- For beginners and intermediate users
- Classical music/Jazz music/Pop music - learning chords and playing by ear
- Music theory (solfege, harmony, chord learning, ear training, etc.)

Children's music: The classes are aimed at general music. We can focus more on singing, piano, or music therapy - It depends on your needs.
The classes include musical games and exercises. Children can develop their singing, sense of rhythm, and auditory skills. We can make music together!

If you are interested, please feel free to contact me!

Hello!

I am a professional recorder and flute player with a passion for both early and contemporary music, offering lessons on the recorder, flute, piano, and music theory in the Amsterdam area and online.

I graduated with a Masters in recorder at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam Cum Laude, with a scholarship from The Countess of Munster Musical Trust. Previously, I graduated from the Royal College of Music London with a First-Class Joint Honours Bachelor’s degree in Flute and Recorder. In 2021 I was a finalist for the Moeck/SRP recorder competition as part of the London Early Music Festival.

I am an encouraging and dedicated teacher who believes that effective practice, rather than talent, is at the heart of any musical development. I share my expertise in how to practice well, varying your approach to make different connections rather than just repeating things - this also helps to keep practice interesting! I am also keen to help each student find their own voice and expression through music, tailoring lessons to each student's needs and goals.

I have specialist knowledge of medieval, renaissance, and baroque music, and can help students to develop skills in historical performance and ornamentation/improvisation.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Hi! My name is Marius. I'm a professional piano player with 10 years of experience in the music industry (playing gigs, teaching, working as a accompanist in music schools and university, arranging and orchestration, studio work, etc.). I am currently studying jazz piano masters at the Conservatory of Amsterdam.

I am looking for students of all levels and ages. The lessons will be tailored for your needs and goals. We will use diverse tools to help you to learn to play piano and understand the music in technical and musical aspects.

Contents:
All styles - pop, jazz, classical, etc.
Improvisation
Practical music theory
Ear training
Composition
Accompaniment for singing

The singing lesson with an experienced professor is designed to help individuals improve their vocal skills and develop a strong foundation in singing. With years of experience, Despina will guide you through various vocal exercises, techniques, and repertoire selection to enhance their vocal range, control, tone, and overall performance. The lessons will focus on breath control, pitch accuracy, vocal projection, and interpretation of songs. Whether you are interested in classical, pop, rock, jazz, R&B, or any other style, she will provide guidance and instruction to help you develop the necessary techniques and skills specific to your preferred style.

- I'm open to students who wish to learn Singing (any level), Piano (up to Intermediate), Composition (any level) and Music Theory (any level).

- For Singers : I believe anyone can sing and during our sessions we will build a healthy, deep connection with our voice. Physically, mentally and emotionally.

- I aim on creating welcoming, positive and judgement free environments in sessions. And as such I teach a wide variety of genres, from Reggae to Rock to Jazz to RnB to Pop, you name it. Your taste and connection to music is 100% valued here and we aim to deepen and strengthen that connection.

- A usual lesson includes a warmup / check in with our instrument, followed by intensive work on our current goal and some time in the end for reflection and/or setting a goal for the next session. I can also design quizes from time to time.

- I help with both setting goals, and achieving them. And we do that by having fun. I will guide you by suggesting songs that can act as a challenge from time to time. Could be technical, could be expression, could be theoretical, whatever I feel we need at that time. This also allows you to broaden your horizons as both a listener and musician.

- You're getting access to someone who is both self taught, and got the chance to learn from some of the best teachers in India and NL and loves being a teacher! Give it a try, first lesson is free :)
