About Me

I am a multifaceted artist and educator from Tunisia, driven by a passion that defied expectation. My journey began in the world of Data Science, a path I secretly abandoned to pursue my true calling at the Music College in Tunis. This experience gave me a unique perspective, as I immediately faced a struggle: despite my formal musical training in piano and Oud, I was told I couldn't handle singing.

This challenge became my biggest lesson. Through intensive study with two brilliant private Russian opera singers (a Tenor and a Mezzo-Soprano), I not only mastered Classical and Opera technique but learned that true vocal command is about more than genre—it comes from shifting the mindset and regulating the body.

My love for storytelling is equally strong; as a trained Comedian and Theatre Artist, I don't just sing, I perform the song—which is why I have a deep passion for the Broadway and Musical Theatre repertoire.

I teach my students this holistic path: how to use their Classical foundation to train their voice to do whatever they command it to, empowering them to be versatile, healthy, and ultimately, unstoppable performers in any genre.

Education

My formal education at the Music College in Tunis began with a rigorous focus on instrumental mastery, where I majored as an Oud Player. This foundation gave me an understanding of musical structure, harmony, and tradition. However, it was during this period that I wanted to discover the true potential of my voice, leading me to a dramatic shift in focus. I committed to intensive vocal training, specializing as a Coloratura Soprano in the opera repertoire and continuing on to complete my Master’s degree.

Experience / Qualifications

My performance career is built upon a foundation of active collaboration and diverse stage work. I have worked extensively in the operatic field, in the FabuloCollectif group, where I contribute to innovative. Furthermore, I am an active member of the esteemed choir Les Voix du Cœur, participating in large-scale vocal projects that emphasize ensemble dynamics and vocal blend. My commitment to performance extends into dramatic work as well, with several credits in theatre plays. This broad experience—from the individual challenge of opera roles to the synergy of choir and the character work of theatre—ensures that I bring real-world, practical stage knowledge into every single lesson.

I am also a Piano Teacher for children and young adults at Conservatoire El Manar in Tunisia. I teach beginners and intermediate!

Holistic Opera and Classical singing class to shift Mindset, and find your Authentic voice

37 C$ /h

I work to regulate the nervous system and heal the mindset because when the inner self shifts, the voice follows. I use this comprehensive expertise to help you accurately discover and train your authentic vocal type, ensuring you are on the right path to finding your own unstoppable melody.
Early on, I was mistakenly classified as a mezzo-soprano, singing repertoire that never quite felt right. It was only through the dedication of two brilliant private Russian opera mentors—a Tenor and a Mezzo-Soprano—who saw past the initial misclassification and patiently taught me, that my true voice emerged. This pivotal experience forms the core of my teaching philosophy: a commitment to never letting a student be misdirected, and understanding that true vocal freedom begins in the mind and body. Whether your heart beats for the dramatic fire of Opera, the structured beauty of Classical repertoire, or the vibrant energy of Broadway, my approach is holistic.

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.

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.

You’ve Always Wanted to Play the Accordion. Let’s Make It Happen.
For you or for your child, it can start with one free lesson.

Maybe you’ve loved the sound of the accordion for years but never believed you could play it yourself.
Maybe you already own one, but online videos have left you with more questions than answers.
Or maybe you’re looking for a patient teacher who will help your child enjoy music and feel proud of their progress.
Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
You bring curiosity. I’ll bring guidance, encouragement, and a clear plan.

Hi, I’m Nikola Spasic, founder of Accordion Joy Academy, an ArtEZ Conservatory graduate, and a two-time winner of the Dutch National Accordion Competition.
I teach live, private online lessons that start with you, your experience, your musical taste, your pace, and the time you have available.
You don’t need to read music before starting. You don’t need to feel naturally talented. And you don’t need to have begun as a child.
We’ll build the skills together, one manageable step at a time.

Here’s how I’ll help you move forward.
Personal attention in every lesson. Ask questions, get feedback, and understand how to improve.
A clear practice plan. Know what to work on between lessons, with manageable goals that fit your routine.
Music you actually want to play. Classical, tango, folk, musette, movie themes, and more—adapted to your level.
Support you can revisit. Lesson recordings, demonstrations, and sheet music help you practise with confidence.
Patient guidance through the tricky parts. We’ll work on the bellows, bass buttons, and coordination without rushing.
Encouragement along the way. See your progress, celebrate small successes, and connect with fellow learners in my private accordion community.

For children, lessons make room for curiosity, repetition, and small achievements that build confidence. For adults, they offer a structured way to finally make music part of your life.
Your first simple song in 30 days, or your money back.
We’ll start with a song suited to your level and build towards playing it from beginning to end. If you don’t get there within 30 days, I’ll refund your money.
Your first step is a free one-on-one trial lesson, with no obligation to continue. We’ll talk about your goals, try some practical exercises, and discuss lesson options and prices.

Don’t have an accordion yet? Contact me first, and I’ll help you understand what to look for.
Send me a message saying, “I’d love to learn”, and tell me whether the lessons are for you or your child.
Let’s give that wish a place to start.

I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age.

I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

The theory of everything tends to be really scary and music theory can be too. I am very keen to make music theory easy for everyone. For some people there is only one way to tackle the unmentionable but I believe there are many different approaches and one of them will click with you. It is simply finding out what is best for each person. Once we find the key we can unlock the problems that have puzzled you for ages.

Music theory needs to be more than a requirement, it needs to be the way to really appreciate the music you are playing. Certain aspects can also lead to additional practical skills such as improvisation which can be very useful as well as very enjoyable.

Whether you want to understand a particular aspect of music theory or If you struggle with music theory in general, then this is the class for you - why not give it a try?

Do you make music at home, but always wanted to record a song for fun?

If you are learning how to play it, I have the gear to help you create and record a song, so you can share it with your friends and family, or just have it for yourself.
I can play a lot of instruments and create tracks to accompany you. You can write a song or make a recording of you playing something you are working on. Depending on your level and experience with music, it would be a great way to learn some music theory too.

I am Julia, a professional musician originally from Montreal, Canada. I have lived in the Netherlands for 4 years and have a Master's degree in Music. I compose, engineer, and perform music. I also love to teach, I have experience with ages 9 to 90. I want to get the song in your head out into the air.

Jade

Hello! My name is Jade. I’m an undergraduate student and have been playing the piano for 15 years; I graduated from the Geneva Conservatory.

In my lessons, I focus on practice and improving technique. Although I have prepared lessons and pieces, I give my students a great deal of freedom in choosing their sheet music, the intensity of their lessons, and the type of instruction they need. I see the piano as a passion and, above all, an art form which, as such, shouldn’t become a source of stress or frustration. We’ll make progress through small successes and can explore a variety of genres, from classical music to songs, pop, and even film scores.

My priorities are for students to learn the notes and develop the ability to read sheet music easily, as well as rhythm and interpretation.
We can complement this approach with training in musical ear and singing, as well as the basics of music analysis.

I’d be happy to welcome you to my studio in De Pijp or can come to your home.

I look forward to meeting you!
