About Me

With great enthusiasm, I would like to express my interest giving guitar lessons through Apprentus. With a strong background in classical guitar and a great passion for music education, I look forward to contributing to the musical growth of students in this vibrant environment.

I am currently completing my Pedagogical Master's at the Conservatory of Antwerp, having obtained my Master in Performing Arts in the spring of 2024. During a one-year Erasmus exchange at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, I graduated with the highest distinction. These studies have provided me with a solid foundation in both guitar performance and music pedagogy.

My teaching experience is broad and has brought me much fulfillment. I currently teach at the Merksem Academy and have previously taught at the Academies of Berchem and Ekeren. Here, I have guided students of various ages and levels, always adapting my approach to their individual needs to help them grow as musicians.

In addition to teaching, I am also active as a performing musician, having performed at concerts, festivals, and masterclasses across Europe. Highlights include solo performances at deSingel and the Franz Liszt Academy, as well as winning the Oranjebeurs in 2024. These experiences have sharpened my technical skills and deepened my artistic insight, which I am eager to pass on to my students.

Thank you for considering my guitar lessons. I would be happy to discuss how we could work together and to align with your specific needs.

Discover the world of mandolin and guitar through personalised lessons adapted to your interests, goals, and experience level.

I am a professional musician, teacher, and researcher based in Antwerp, holding a PhD in the Arts, a Master of Music, and a Bachelor of Music from the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp. I also have several years of teaching experience in music academies in Belgium and extensive experience as a performer in Belgium, Greece, and abroad.

Lessons are open to children, teenagers, and adults, from complete beginners to more advanced students. Whether you would like to learn your first chords, develop your technique, improve your musical expression, or explore a particular style of music, lessons are tailored to your individual needs.

For mandolin students, lessons can include classical repertoire, folk and traditional music, technique, music reading, ear training, ensemble playing, and stylistic interpretation. Guitar students can work on classical or folk guitar, accompaniment techniques, chords, rhythm, reading music, and repertoire development.

My teaching approach combines technical development with creativity and musical enjoyment. I aim to create a supportive learning environment where students can progress at their own pace while building confidence and musical skills.

Discover and master the guitar!

As a Bachelor 3 student in classical guitar at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp, experienced in playing in different bands, writing, and performing music, I can offer my knowledge from various styles of guitar playing and music theory.

Adaptive-paced, fun lessons intended to either introduce you to the beauty of the guitar or to broaden your existing knowledge and skill. The focus will be on exploring the repertoire, exercising your technique, improvising, and understanding the music theory.

I will see you in class!

I can give lessons to players who already have some foundation and would like to improve or learn new techniques. I prefer a relaxed teaching approach tailored to the player's individual interests. I play metal, rock, blues, and some classical and flamenco.

I can help you learn your favorite licks, and solos and explain theory if interested.
We can go over the techniques:

• Alternate picking
• Economy picking
• Legato
• Sweep picking
• tapping
• vibrato & bending

There is no strict structure. Lessons are flexible and can be arranged on an ad-hoc basis.

Classical guitar is one of the most beautiful and versatile instruments out there! You can play music from all styles and from all times. But learning to play the guitar is not something you do alone: you need someone who will guide you personally and help you discover what you can get out of your instrument. So do you dream of starting to make music yourself but don't know where to start? Or have you been playing for some time, but are you looking for a more personal approach in your lessons?
Then you've come to the right place!

I'm Warre and I've been playing classical guitar for over 16 years. A few years ago I decided to go for a life as a professional musician and enrolled at a conservatory. This year I completed my Master of Music at the Lemmens Institute in Leuven. I have been teaching guitar for several years now. I look forward to meeting my students every week. Few things are more fun than watching someone discover music and get so much fun out of it!

No prior musical knowledge is required. If you are a total beginner, we will start from scratch. And it's never too late to get started! Of course, more experienced players are also welcome for lessons that are completely tailored to your needs.

Lessons at my home in the center of Antwerp or online. Current availabilities valid until the end of August.

With more than six years of experience giving private classical and electric guitar lessons to children and adults, both amateurs and elementary and professional conservatory students.

I offer personalized guitar lessons based on the needs and objectives of the student; whether it is starting to play, improving technique, or support and supervision in conservatory courses. On the other hand, I am familiar with pop-rock music and I offer electric and acoustic guitar lessons.

Hello,

My name is Sander. I am a guitarist and singer with Hippotrakor and L'itch, and I really want to coach/inspire people with the aim of igniting their creative fire. Our lessons will start from your vision of music, and we ask ourselves the question 'Why did you start playing? Then we will reconcile your motivation with the learning process of your instrument.

It's a bit of a different approach than with the classical music teacher, but don't let it put you off. I am trained as a remedial educationalist and teacher and also have six years of experience in the social sector. I can feel very well where your strengths lie and I am convinced that we can shape your trajectory together with those strengths.

I have only mentored one student so far, but I can proudly say that since this year he has released his first own CD, started performing, and has become a real ambient connoisseur.

I am Verena and I have a Master's degree In classical double bass (French Bow), as well as a background in studying Electric Bass.
I can teach the basics and the advanced skills of approaching these Instruments. The key for someone to love studying music is, I believe, the approach to playing in the first place. I consider myself a very kind and patient person with a passion for teaching and knowing new people.
I have always combined classical music with my passion for all stringed Instruments. Here is my passion for the guitar specifically for the acoustic guitar using folk/finger-picking techniques.
Due to the difficulty of having access in the first place to instruments like the double bass, I think it is essential to have the opportunity for a first lesson before deciding to invest In an instrument.

As a passionate professional guitarist I am looking forward to passing this passion on to other people. I will guide you in your journey through the classical guitar, and hope to stimulate your curiosity. I will not only guide you technically but I will also bring you the meaning of the music.

The lessons can be for beginners or advanced. I work with scores and not with tablatures. I do this because classical music is easier to understand that way. So I teach you to read scores and to be able to play them on the guitar. For the advanced we will mainly work on refining the repertoire, technical skills and tone projection.

I offer personalised classical guitar lessons for children, teenagers and adults, from complete beginners to advanced students. Each lesson is adapted to the student’s level, musical interests and personal goals.

During the lessons, we can work on:

• Repertoire adapted to your level and interests
• Effective and structured practice methods
• Preparation for examinations, auditions and performances
• Solutions for tension and specific technical difficulties

My teaching combines technical development with musical expression. I do not only correct mistakes: I help students understand how to practise efficiently and become more confident and independent musicians.

I hold a Master of Arts in Music from the Royal Conservatoire Antwerp and graduated with honours from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). I have approximately 15 years of experience as a classical guitarist and five years of teaching experience in schools.

Lessons are available in person in Edegem and nearby areas, or online. Lessons can be taught in Spanish, English, Middel German or basic Dutch.
