Brain studies repeatedly show how important it is to keep learning. In playing piano you increase your concentration, you use your fine motor skills, you learn the language music and you make something beautiful!
Music feeds the soul and you are never too young or too old to start. Practice you do at home, in your own environment. Every lesson I would like to inspire you to get further, in a relaxed atmosphere and at your own pace. With over 30 years of experience, I have enough material to challenge you, but you can always come up with your own ideas.
Extra information
Requirements: a (digital) piano, a sense of music and perseverance.

About Me
I started taking piano lessons myself when I was 9 years old. I enjoyed making music so much that I decided to turn my hobby into my profession. In 1986 I graduated from the conservatory in Utrecht and since then I have been giving private piano lessons to people of all ages with great pleasure. At the moment my youngest student is 5 years old and my oldest is 78! What appeals to me in music is that it is a combination of rational and emotional. First you learn to read notes, play rhythms and get to know the piano; what can be done and how do you manage that. That is the rational and technical part, you have to learn and practice a lot. Along the way you also learn a lot about yourself (!): You can go on, go for the long term and not just want immediate results. That sometimes requires quite a lot, but if you persist you can express yourself more and more through the music. I often hear myself say: music is always about communicating and making music is just like talking, just not with words and with your mouth but with notes and with your fingers. You can put your emotion and your soul into it more and more and that sometimes even goes beyond words. In addition, there is so much beautiful and interesting music in all styles, whether you like classical music or jazz or pop. With music in your life you are a rich person!

Learning a musical instrument is a truly enriching experience that nurtures creativity and self-expression. I am a qualified music teacher, choir conductor, and pianist with extensive experience in teaching both practical and theoretical aspects of music.

In my music theory classes, students are guided to prepare for ABRSM or equivalent examinations. With a solid theoretical foundation, we place a strong emphasis on piano performance. I firmly believe that music has the power to transform lives and unlock boundless creative potential across all areas of life.

In addition to classical music training, I offer support in improvisation and can help you learn to play your favorite tunes, symphonies, or songs. I also occasionally conduct children’s choirs, which help instill valuable life skills and discipline in young learners.

If you're looking for assistance in conducting a choir for a special event—be it a church service, school function, or any other occasion—I’d be delighted to help.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

In addition to Piano lessons, Popschool Groovability now also offers Keyboard lessons!
Be surprised by the unknown possibilities of the Keyboard. Young or old, playing the keyboard is fun!
Together with your teacher you learn to play songs, make your own compositions and / or guide yourself.
Where you are the pianist today, you can be the accordionist tomorrow, the drummer the day after tomorrow and maybe the entire wind section in a band next week! This is possible with a keyboard! in fact, you can even imitate an entire orchestra or band by yourself! Do you want to know how you can learn all this?
