With a degree in film music composition and having been a musician since childhood, I teach piano to all ages.

From 50 C$ /h

Hello,

My name is Charlotte, I am 25 years old.
I hold a bachelor's degree in applied and interactive music from the Royal Conservatory of Mons, specializing in composition for film scores and other visual media. I have been playing the piano since childhood, about ten years now. I completed all my piano studies at an academy and continue to hone my skills on this instrument that is so dear to me.

I have been teaching piano for five years now; I have taught students ranging from 5 to 70 years old, from Belgium, Spain, and Italy. Language is not a barrier for me, and I enjoy teaching both younger children (through games, songs to sing along to, and more playful activities) and older students.

Before attending the conservatory, I took various courses that enriched my musical practice: solfège, choir, classical singing, chamber music, and classical music analysis. I also had the opportunity to accompany a small string orchestra at the Auderghem Academy on the piano.

Last year, I had the chance to spend a year on Erasmus at the conservatory in Bologna, Italy, where I took other courses: Ear training jazz (recognizing chords by ear), conducting, entertainment law, video game composition, etc.

In the creative field, an experience that also brought me a lot was composing a soundtrack for the Helmo fashion school's fashion show in Liège, as well as coordinating the live music performance of all the instrumentalists I was part of.
At the moment, I am also finishing the creation of a soundtrack for a theatrical production by a friend and colleague who recently graduated in theatre from the Mons Conservatory.

During my years of experience teaching piano, I loved most of all seeing the student become more and more passionate about music, come back with a request for a piece to play with stars in their eyes, see the youngest ones having fun playing, pass on my taste for improvisation, and of course see the person progress.

Hello!

Let me introduce myself: my name is Charlotte, I am 25 years old.
I did a bachelor's degree in translation and interpretation at ULB at ISTI, English and Spanish module. So I learned to translate texts from English and Spanish into French, and vice versa.

I have always had a great interest in languages, and I think that it is always possible to improve, to acquire a higher level.

During a lesson, I will teach you vocabulary, grammar, common expressions, etc. I adapt to the student's level, their expectations, and the way of learning that suits them. Nothing is more satisfying than seeing my student progress!

I give lessons at home or via webcam.

Feel free to contact me with any further questions!

The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS.

Age and musical taste are not restrictive when in the program, you can with qualitative daily work (not quantitative) quickly observe your progress.

Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward.

The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you.

We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire!

(For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...)

If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class.

In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero.
The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty.

I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... .
There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly.

Professional saxophonist eager to teach and work to bring out the best version of yourself!

The lessons are intended for all levels, children or adults.
We follow a working method where you will continuously and deeply develop your musicality, way of playing, expressiveness and technique.
-------------------------------------------------- ----------------------

Raúl is a Spanish saxophonist who finished his DIDACTIC MASTER in 2018 at the École Supérieure des Arts in Mons. Previously, he also completed a MASTER OF INTERPRETATION at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels (2015-2017) in the class of Alain Crepin and Simon Diricq.
He studied at the "Musikene" (Higher Conservatory of Music of the Basque Country) with Eric Devallon, Tomás Jérez, Antonio Felipe Belijar and Miguel Ángel Lorente.

Passionate about multidisciplinary artistic creation, he thinks of the mixing of all the arts in the same show as an aesthetic goal. This type of research could be observed in his project for his final master's recital in Brussels where he created a project based on Maslow's theory of the hierarchy of human needs where he mixed live, recorded music, dance, light shows and effects under the name: “according to Maslow... ”

In terms of his career as a concert artist, he has played in different ensembles (solo performances, duo, trio, quartet, orchestra...) and different countries such as Japan (Artisanal Musical Fair "Suono Italia" 2010), Belgium (Festival Musiq3 2016), Artonov Festival at BOZAR in 2016...), France (Dax chamber music festival 2011) or Spain (Music Festival “Quincena Musical” 2015, Aste Nagusia 2015, Heineken Jazzaldia 2014, Festival Kutxa 2015, Intercentros Melómano 2010).

I am current studying my Master degree at the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.
In what consist my lessons?
Cello classes for all levels (beginner, intermediate and advanced), it does not matter if you have never played cello before or if you are already studying, the important thing is to help you achieve the goals you want with this beautiful instrument.
To have better results with practice, if it is necessary to help you with music theory, I will help you.
As well, if you're looking for help in orchestral excerpts for auditions, I'm here for you!
For kids, parental support is also important during some lesson, we are all a team and we need to work together to achieve the goals!
Classes can be in person at your house or mine (BRUSSELS, BELGIUM) or via videocall (Skype, Zoom, etc). The schedules are planned according to the time of the student and the teacher.

Looking forward to meeting you and work together!

Je donne cours en français - Description disponible en Français
Do lezione in Italiano - Descrizione disponibile in Italiano

.........................................................................................................................................................

The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements.

-> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student.
-> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor.

The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages.

=> Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more.

On demand or for advancs students:
- I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student.
- I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati.

Technique:
* Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.)
* Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems
* Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum
* Speed drills
* Military marches
* Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.)
* Displacement of accents and polyrhythms
* On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet)

Drums:
* Bass drum reading and independance
* Snare drum reading and independance
* Applications of ghost notes
* The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos
* Jazz readings and independence
* Binary and ternary readings
* Coordination and movements of both feet
* Dynamics on the instrument
* Creation of fills and original drum grooves
* On request, application of the double pedal
* On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

Graduated in cello in Barcelona, finishing my master in historical cello at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels. Passionate cellist with a lot of experience in performance and education. I specialize in historically informed music, so I try to understand the context around each music I play, so we enter into a dialogue between current events and the era in which the music was created. In my classes we will learn the basic technique of the cello but also we will look together for what we want to express with the music we make, and techniques more adapted to the era.

If you are looking for a young and dynamic teacher, this is a good start! But I can also guarantee a real commitment and a real structure in my teaching.

I have been a piano teacher for several years now, which guarantees me solid experience.
I teach piano to students of all ages and levels and can adapt according to their wishes: (for musical styles I can very well teach the basics of classical/rock/blues or even jazz up to a very advanced level).
For those interested in composition or computer music, I could definitely guide them to develop their creativity.

I propose that we arrange a first lesson during which we can get to know each other and where I can assess your desires and needs in order to plan, if necessary, lessons or simple exercises specific to your profile.

I really enjoy teaching; I like the diversity of student profiles and the necessary adaptation to each individual.
Furthermore, I consider the transmission of knowledge to be something of paramount importance in a society.

FR / NL / EN

FR:

Each student has their own goals, tastes, and learning style. Therefore, I tailor the course to each student's level and expectations.

For a beginner, we gradually work on posture, technique, reading and the first notions of music theory while quickly playing pieces.

For a more advanced student, the work may be more oriented towards interpretation, technique, musical analysis, accompaniment or preparation for an exam or audition.

Music theory is naturally integrated into the piano course so that it can be used directly for musical practice: reading a score, understanding the rhythm, the tones, the chords and the structure of a piece.

I also offer personalized support for preparing for conservatory entrance exams.

NL:

Elke leerling heeft zijn de haar eigen doelstellingen, muzikale voorkeuren en manier van leren. Daarom stem ik elke les af op het level en de verwachtingen van de leerling.

For beginners we work with you on a sound track, techniques, notes and the basis of music theory, we know that this is the music you play.

You can also focus on interpretation, technology, music analysis, piano performance and audit examination.

Music theory is a natural way to handle piano music, there are two strings that tend to be used in music practices: light scores, rhythms can be played, toonaarden in akkoorden are included in the structure of the music.

I also have people who are interested in your teaching exams at the conservatory.

IN :

Each student has their own goals, musical preferences, and way of learning. I therefore tailor each lesson to their level and individual expectations.

For beginners, we progressively work on posture, technique, reading music, and the basics of music theory, while quickly learning and playing actual pieces.

For more advanced students, the lessons can focus more on interpretation, technique, musical analysis, accompaniment, or preparation for an exam or audition.

Music theory is naturally integrated into the piano lessons so that it directly supports musical practice: reading a score, understanding rhythm, keys, chords, and the structure of a piece.

I also offer personalized guidance for preparing entrance examinations for conservatories.
