I've been playing guitar (mainly acoustic) since I was 14. I taught myself. That was 19 years ago.

If you want to skip music theory and music theory, you've come to the right place.

I can teach you right away how to play chords (from easy to slightly more difficult) and eventually play songs you've always wanted to be able to play.

Everything happens at your own pace.

You can come to me, but I am also prepared to come to you (in the latter case with transportation costs included) provided the distance is feasible, but we can discuss all that.

Preferably on your own guitar, but I also have an extra guitar available if necessary.

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.

Hello

Since I moved to Mechelen I'm very eager to show people my passion.

I'm 29 and have some experience in music. I had many bands and do some live and studio work.

I studied music in Hasselt (Professional Bachelor degree), this makes it possible for me to teach different music styles and music theory.

Whether you are an absolute beginner or an advanced guitarist, together we map out your personal trajectory. Would you like to play classical pieces, learn more pop songs or improvise? That's all possible!

After my classical guitar studies at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp, I started to specialize in music pedagogy with a specific focus on instrumental learning by ear and creative music making. Because of my insight into musical learning, I can adapt my lessons to your level and your preferences. I also have experience with various musical styles, so I'm flexible in that too!

Lessons take place at my home in Antwerp, but on location is also possible (subject to a fee and only for lessons of 1 hour).

There are endless subjects to be discussed when it comes to music and guitar. And, since everyone is different and is aiming at a different goal, I do not use a "one size fits all" approach with these lessons. However, a number of topics could be touched upon and thoroughly studied.

Some of the standard topics that I could cover in the lesson are as follows:

1. Chords, voicing, etc.
2. Playing tunes
3. Improvisation
4. Arrangement
5. Transcription
6. Harmony analysis
7. Technique
8. Arpeggios
9. Ear training
10. listening
11. Playing in a group
12. Recording guitar
And more...

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.

Hi, have you always wanted to learn to play guitar? I can help! From the very first lesson, we'll try playing a song and playfully learn all the basic chords, as well as some basic strumming and picking. We'll then apply this to other songs—with every song we try, we learn new things. This way, we build a songbook with all your favorite songs. Later, we can also learn barre chords, more complex strumming, and so on. I've mastered about 1000 songs myself. I'm the same age as Sheryl Crow and Jon Bon Jovi :), and music is my hobby and my passion.
