Violin, Viola and Music Theory lessons in EN, FR, DE, IT, NL

As a graduated music pedagogue, I adapt my lessons to the student's needs and interests. My goal is to give an as complete as possible preparation in the technical and artistic fields while keeping the lesson a positive, creative and constructive experience for all students, from the youngest children who didn't learn to read yet to more mature people looking for new challenges.

I teach violin and viola from beginner to advanced level and piano for beginners, integrating my lessons with tidbits of music theory in order to give the students wider knowledge and awareness.

Group lessons for two or three students are also an option.

Extra information

There's no need to buy music scores, unless you wish. I provide all the necessary material in digital format, which you can easily print at home.

About Me

No one is the same, therefore my lessons are completely adapted to the students' needs, interests and requests. The kind and the amount of work will be discussed at the beginning and during the teaching period with the students/parents in order to get the best from the lessons, but without being overwhelmed. It is crucial for me to maintain a pleasant and friendly atmosphere during my lessons.
I like organization and efficiency. The homework I assign is thoroughly explained on paper to avoid the risk of forgetting or misunderstanding it. With young children, I can make sure that the parents as well understand the method, so they can supervise their kids at home.
Even when a small break of a few minutes is needed I do some more relaxing but still educational activity in order to not waste time.
When I teach minors I usually communicate directly with the parents or, in case the student as well as using a cell phone, I send double messages to both the student and the parents.
My schedule can be flexible if needed and if communicated with enough advance, but I might not be able to extend the lesson if the student is late and in that case, I'd expect to be paid for the full lesson.
I'm available for answering some little questions about the homework between one lesson and the next one, as I think this can be a great help for my students in case of doubt.

Education

I graduated in Pedagogy of Violin and got my first artistic degree in 2016 at the Kärntner Landeskonservatorium in Klagenfurt (AT), where I started my studies in 2013. During these three-years period I attended, between several other subjects, weekly lessons, pedagogy classes and apprenticeship for both violin and viola.
Since 2014 I started to get baroque violin lessons and masterclasses as well and in February 2019 I got accepted in a Master for baroque violin.
In September 2016 I moved to Belgium to attend Specialized Master studies for violin at IMEP in Namur, where I eventually graduated, in order to develope my artitic skills.
In September 2023 I completed my Master studies for viola at LUCA Lemmensinstituut Leuven.
As for many musicians, the study of piano was part of my education and I've been studying it since I was 11 years old.

Experience / Qualifications

I've been teaching since 2011 as private teacher for both young and adult students. In 2013 I started my studies and apprenticeship and in 2016 I got my degree as Music Pedagogue. Since then I've been specializing further in violin and viola and working as violin, viola and piano teacher in several music schools between Belgium and Italy.
Degrees:
- IGP degree for violin at Kärntner Landeskonservatorium
- Master in violin at IMEP in Namur
- Master in baroque violin at Conservatorio "F. Venezze" in Rovigo
- Master in viola at LUCA Lemmens in Leuven

Self-paced violin lessons (all ages and levels: beginners to advanced)
Have you always wanted to learn to play the violin or start over? Then you've come to the right place! I am a Belgian violinist, 25 years old, who obtained her master's degree in violin and chamber music at the Lemmens Institute last year. As a violin teacher, the fun of the students is central. With a stimulating and motivated approach, we take on new challenges by looking together for a beautiful sound, musicality, relaxation and suitable repertoire. I cater to the interests of each student. I want to make you curious about the instrument and show you all the possibilities of the violin. I have already gained experience in youth music studios, part-time art education and private. Lessons can be given at my home in Leuven or Roeselare.

Lydia
Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)
Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student. My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.

My lessons are distinguished by their dynamics, practical approach and adaptation to the needs and interests of the student. The lessons (live or online) take place in my studio next to the Maastunnel, where I have a premium stage piano and a top-quality webcam setup. I speak Dutch at an intermediate level, which is improving every day.
