About Me

Music has been with me since I can remember. As a child it was mainly classical music, as a teenager it was musical, punk rock and visual kei from Japan. Today I find a variety of genres from all over the world exciting. At the moment it's mostly No Wave, Dark Wave and Dark Rock, but also C-Pop from China.
Since my music studies, I have also been interested in popular music research, especially in the field of metal music studies.

It is important to me that my students find their own authentic way of expressing themselves in their singing. When we sing we always tell a story. A well-fitting technique is a kind of tool case that contains a wide range of expressive options.

Rock/Pop Singing - From Basic Breathing Technique to The Interpretation of Your Favourite Songs

103.62 C$ /h

Singing is your passion and you wanna build up your skill? You feel at home with genres within pop and/or rock music? Then I'm your teacher!

My classes will be designed to fit in with your current level, your preferences in terms of style and/or skill as well as your goals. Each class starts with a short warm up consisting of breathing exercises, a check of your body posture and singing exercises. Then we'll work on the songs you wanna sing. The technique I'm gonna teach you is based on speech level singing.

About me: I'm about to finish my music studies with a bachelor diploma in singing at Jam Music Lab Privat University for Jazz and Popular Music Vienna and I've been singing for over 10 years now. Last time I was live on stage was with the 80's tribute "Shake Me" at Simm City Wien and local Wien in 2020. Right now I'm arranging my own songs from my dark wave and dark rock influenced band project "Vampy Pop" to make them ready for recording in the studio.

Dear student / Querido alumno:

My name is Denise. I am a Mexican Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) teacher certified by the Escuela Internacional Cervantes and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Spanish Literature from the University of Nuevo León (UANL, Mexico).

I began tutoring Spanish at an early age, initially helping classmates improve their academic performance, and later formalizing my teaching practice during my university studies.

For the past seven years, I have been teaching Spanish in both America and Europe, working with children, teenagers, and adult learners in academic tutoring, in-company training, online instruction, and professional language support.

My teaching approach is structured, adaptive, and goal-oriented. Lessons are designed according to the student’s level and specific objectives, with a clear focus on progress and consistency.

Students receive guided practice, exercises, and curated learning materials as part of their learning process. I work with a variety of resources, including textbooks, videos, podcasts, and newspapers, depending on the learning goal.

Depending on your needs, we can focus on grammar, academic Spanish, professional communication, or structured conversational practice with topics such as culture, arts, politics, and society.

I invite you to contact me so we can define your learning goals and build a consistent study plan together.

Hello and welcome to my music studio! It is absolutely fabulous that you are interested in music, and I hope you have lots and lots of fun with it! However, diving into the wonders of the piano/keyboard can be a bit overwhelming... and that is where I come in!
This course is for anyone from complete beginners to advanced students, from lessons that focus completely on classical music to lessons that include or focus on the basics of jazz/pop. If you like to sing, we can also work on the basics of jazz/pop vocal, so you can learn to accompany yourself at the piano.
In our lessons, technique will be an inherent part of the training, as well as analysis, basic music theory, and efficient ways of practicing music. If that all sounds good to you, then please reach out to me and we can start ASAP!
Lessons can be in English or Dutch.

So who am I?
In a nutshell, I am a professional pianist, vocalist, lyricist and blogger. Since 2014, I have taught in various music schools, teaching piano, ensemble, jazz vocal, and solfege.
On a more elaborate note, I obtained my Master of Arts in classical piano, summa cum laude, at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent (KASK) in 2017, and studied as a Fulbrighter at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington USA during the 2019-2020 academic year.
Every day, I strive to become a better musician and person, and I aim to transfer that passion to my students.

I specialise in teaching singing to Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced levels. My method is quite holistic, which makes the process more fun, therapeutic and even the uncomfortable moments of getting out of the comfort zone becomes a thrill! Good singing comes from 4 places. The head, the voice, the gut and the heart. Mastering all of these is what gives the essence of a Good Singer! We all have a voice. If you feel like you want to do more with yours.... you know what to do ;)

I've been teaching since 2017 and am currently specializing in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. I've also been working at the Cervantes Institute in Vienna as a collaborating teacher since September 2023 and have had students of a wide age range. This experience has given me a great ability to adapt to the needs of each of my students.

I am also a DELE examiner for levels A1-A2/B1 for schoolchildren and B1-B2, so I am familiar with the certification tests.

Beginner to advanced one-on-one private tuition on Brass instruments.There is no age too young or old to start your musical life, and I believe the best way to do that is to play something loud and shiny. I have nearly 10 years of experience performing with some of the top orchestras in the United Kingdom, and have been teaching beginners to pensioners during that time too. My main instrument is French Horn, but I am happy to teach all Brass. All that is required of you is passion practice!

Talk about everyday topics such as lifestyle, travel, work, or hobbies.

Practice specific situations, for example:
- ordering food in a restaurant
- traveling and airports
- meeting new people and small talk
- workplace communication
- daily life situations

After each session you will receive:
- key corrections
- useful phrases and expressions
- relevant vocabulary from the session

This course is suitable for A2, B1, and B2 learners. You should already be able to:
- understand basic conversations
- form simple sentences
- communicate at a basic level

The session is conducted mainly in Russian. English support is available if needed, so you never feel stuck.

This course is ideal if you:
- want to improve your spoken Russian
