Private piano lessons in Londerzeel: learn to play the piano in no time

From 79 C$ /h

Have you always wanted to learn how to play the piano or want to understand more about how music works? Then I invite you to take lessons with me!

Whether you have never touched a piano before or already have some experience, together we will find the perfect teaching method for you. Beginners will start from the basics, while advanced pianists can build on their existing skills. Reading music is certainly not a requirement, but if you can, that is a nice bonus! Together we will determine what you want to learn or play, so that we can work specifically on your musical goals. Everything is possible!

Who am I? My name is Staf, and my passion for piano started in the sixth grade, in 2005. After my studies at PXL Music, I successfully completed my training as a pianist. In addition, I have been teaching music in secondary education for several years. Now I would like to share that experience and knowledge with others. In addition to piano lessons, I also provide support in music production with Logic X, so if you have any questions about producing music, you have come to the right place.

The lessons take place in Malderen, Londerzeel.

For questions or more information, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm looking forward to making music together!

Extra information

A basic keyboard/piano is necessary for practicing at home.

Coming from Pelt, Limburg but living in Malderen (Londerzeel).

In addition to playing live, I'm also busy producing with the DAW Logic X, if you have any questions about that I can help you with that too.

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.

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.

I'm Giorgos and i teach Lute and Classical guitar!
I have over 15 years of teaching experience, and have studied and have my Degrees from the Royal Conservatory of Brussels, both in Classical Guitar as well as Historical Plucked instruments.

I regularly perform in concert halls with orchestras and groups all around Europe, perform with my own ensembles based in Brussels and Italy, and enjoy an active teaching schedule.

My aim with teaching is to find the best way to facilitate the student to find their own voice and direction, and to help steer them on their preferred road of performance. The schedule and repertoire are decided by the student, and we plot a course together depending on your goals, whether that's aiming to place into an academy or the conservatories, or if you just enjoy playing music as a hobby and wish that it accompanies you through your life!

I'm looking forward to hear from you!

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.

My course is based first on you.
I like developing with you a program adapted to your features, your difficulties as well as your goal.
It is aimed at everyone, children and adults, complete beginners and more experienced musicians looking for advice, a method to keep developing I've been approaching and searching.

Autonomy, creativity, curiosity and listening are the main 4 words for me!

I can teach you drums in many styles (rock, funk, jazz, shuffle, pop, linear, world music, songs on demand) and in its many forms AND of course music theory, which can be integrated into the course if necessary, but also be the subject of a private lesson for students who wish support for their courses in an academy or at the Conservatory. This will help you to read music scores and nail sight reading over time!

Music theory, solfège, ear training, sight-reading. These are important skills for every musician. Not only performing musicians, but also those who want to progress in music analysis or composition can come to me. From basic exercises for clapping rhythms to advanced lessons in alto clef, tenor clef, and soprano clef, I work according to your level. Not only this, but I can also teach the basics of harmony and analysis. Depending on your level and expectations, you will not need to study for up to an hour a day outside of my lessons. What is important is that I provide lessons that are engaging for you. If you say that you want to learn more about Eastern music culture, or a specific style, I can cater to that.

Perfect for people who want to keep up at music school, prepare for the conservatory, dip their toes into the music world at a young age, or adults who want to sharpen or organize their music theory knowledge online. Whether you play an instrument or not, music theory can continue to inspire people.

I pay extra attention to people with performance anxiety, stage fright, concentration problems (such as ADHD), autism, and stress-related issues. I can also take into account if, for example, you do not always have time to practice or cannot attend class every week due to work or hobbies.
