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.

To finally be able to express your feelings, your emotions, all through the guitar?

It's possible! And what we'll see through my lessons: you'll learn how to tune the instrument, practice its first chords, and quickly play your first songs.

Being highly skilled in sight-reading, I have often realised how valuable and enjoyable it is to possess that “gift.” After more than ten years of teaching students of different levels and aspirations, I have observed a common thread: regardless of their goals, all were eager to improve their ability to read and interpret new, unfamiliar music.

Currently, I am developing a multifaceted approach designed to help students understand a composition at first sight. This method combines specific pattern recognition and structural score-mapping, anchored in a fundamental understanding of rhythm, pitch, and harmony, together with highly effective practice and memorization strategies personalized to each student's needs and technical challenges.

For over ten years, I have been teaching students of all ages and levels. In addition to regular lessons, I offer the opportunities to perform at the yearly class concert as well as dedicated preparation for ABRSM piano examinations.

I'm a pianist with extensive performing experience on international stages and a first-prize winner of more than 30 international piano competitions across Europe and USA. I hold a Master's degree and four Postgraduate degrees (piano and chamber music) from the Koninklijk Conservatorium Brussel.

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.

Together with you, I will look for the right technique that you can use while singing.
I am also happy to help with preparation for a concert, an entrance exam or songwriting.

I graduated from LUCA School of Arts with a Masters in Music - Jazz Singing and I love to pass on my skills to other singers.

My course will be based first and foremost on practical and applied knowledge of the piano instrument, whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced player.
Learning an instrument requires first and foremost a good ability to read notes, but also the development of listening skills, in order to be able to learn a passage or a piece by heart more easily and naturally.
You will learn how to adopt a good posture at the piano, how to build an optimal hand position, and how to develop finger agility and flexibility to play fast passages with greater accuracy.
The goal will be to guide you in transforming a score into real music.

A serious teacher, holding a Master's degree in piano and a Master's degree in pedagogy, with a solid academic background and experience dedicated to musical transmission.

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.

The Human Voice has an intimate and emotional connection with our physical body and mentality, whenever we express ourself through speaking, singing, improvising or simply long to express what words cannot, the voice is one of the most direct and authentic ways to connect with ourselves and with others.

Drawing on my professional training in Jazz Vocal at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, my background in Chinese traditional music, and years of personal practice in yoga and qigong, I have developed an organic, embodied approach to vocal expression. Rather than focusing only on vocal technique, I guide students to explore the relationship between breath, body awareness, deep listening, and the natural flow of energy (Qi). Through this process, the voice becomes freer, more grounded, and more expressive.

My lessons are open to singers of all levels, as well as anyone who wishes to reconnect with their voice. Whether your goal is to sing, improvise, build confidence, or discover a more authentic way of expressing yourself, I offer a supportive and creative space where curiosity and individuality are encouraged.

I am fluent in English, French in Vietnamese and have experiences in teaching both young students and adults.

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.

I graduated in piano from the University of Aveiro (in the class of Álvaro Teixeira Lopes) and I will soon begin my master's degree in performance at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels (with Aleksandar Madžar), while also taking courses with Olivier Gardon.

Throughout my career, I have won prizes at international competitions in Portugal, Italy, and Austria, and I was also a finalist in Spain. As a pianist, I have had the opportunity to perform on stage in Portugal, Spain, France, Germany, and Austria.

I am constantly seeking to improve myself, which has led me to participate in masterclasses and take courses with renowned professors, such as Ricardo Castro, Mamiko Suda, Giuseppe Andaloro, Vagharshak Aratunyan, Josep Colom, among many others.

I have had the great opportunity to give piano lessons and lead masterclasses, and in recent years, to share my experience and perspective with students of all ages and from diverse backgrounds.
My courses are suitable for students of all levels and ages. The program is tailored to your needs:

Curious and beginners: are you embarking on learning the piano? We will progress in a relaxed atmosphere and discover the instrument at your own pace.

For advanced students: ideal for resuming your studies, improving your technique, delving deeper into your favorite repertoire, or preparing for exams! The method is designed 100% for you!
