Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student.

My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.

- Students preparing for music theory exams (e.g. music school, entrance exams).

I use my own piano during lessons to clarify everything visually and audibly.

- Scales, chords & harmony.
- Form and analysis (classical, jazz or pop).

These courses are primarily aimed at beginners or false beginners wishing to learn the violin on a solid foundation, in a progressive and motivating way.

Trained in classical and chamber music by a conservatory professor, I have developed an approach to the violin that is both rigorous and accessible, always keeping the pleasure of playing as the objective.

We work on the essential fundamentals: posture, bow hold, intonation, tone, and basic musicality. Emphasis is placed on a clear progression adapted to each student.

Each lesson is personalized according to your pace and objectives, whether it's to discover the instrument, consolidate the basics or evolve towards a more expressive style of playing.

Courses are available in French or English.

Hello! I am a professional music educator with 16 years of experience dedicated to making music an indispensable part of life rather than just a lesson. Throughout my career, I have mentored over 1,000 students individually, guiding hundreds of them to successfully enter Conservatories and Fine Arts High Schools. 🏆

My philosophy is simple: Music is loved first, then learned. I prioritize building a deep connection between the student and their instrument. Whether you want to master the Piano, Violin, Guitar, or Oud, I offer a holistic approach that combines technical skill, ear training, and rhythm development.

I don’t believe in rote memorization. My teaching system is based on logic and understanding the "mathematics" of music. By simplifying complex music theory and "Makam" knowledge into practical and engaging methods, I ensure my students reach a stage-ready level in as little as one year. 🎼

In my online studio, I provide a high-quality learning experience using multi-camera angles and professional sound setups that rival face-to-face lessons. Whether you are a preschooler, a young aspiring artist, or an adult beginner, I create personalized, goal-oriented roadmaps to help you reach your musical dreams. 🌍

Let’s start this journey together and build a solid foundation that lasts a lifetime

My approach is to help you develop your ears so they become the main instrument for your music journey. That applies to guitar, piano, etc. I teach you to learn theory as map for your musical journey and not as strict rules to follow. I teach you to teach yourself.

I have five years of violin training, along with experience teaching both private lessons and at a private institution. I also served for four years as a second violinist in a youth symphony orchestra. What motivates me to teach is watching my students progress from struggling with bow technique, one of the hardest parts of this relatively difficult instrument, to playing concertos. Lessons for all levels and age groups follow the Ömer Can Violin Education method. Alongside etudes, we will also work on scales, concertos suited to the student’s level, and popular pieces, and repertoire can be chosen according to the student’s wishes. Beyond playing the instrument, we will learn the fundamentals of music through understanding rather than memorization, which lays the groundwork for learning another instrument and for understanding music more deeply.

I am a professional accordionist, international performer, and experienced music educator offering personalized accordion lessons for children and adults, from complete beginners to advanced and professional musicians.

My teaching approach places particular emphasis on **ergonomics, proper posture, thoughtful fingering choices, and freedom of movement**, helping students develop a natural, efficient, and relaxed instrumental technique while avoiding unnecessary physical tension.

A fundamental part of my teaching focuses on **sound production, bellows technique and control, musical breathing, phrasing, dynamics, expression, and interpretation**. I believe that developing a beautiful, expressive sound and understanding how to shape musical phrases are essential to becoming a confident and sensitive musician.

Lessons also include rhythm, coordination, listening skills, musical understanding, and improvisation, depending on each student's interests and goals. I encourage students to develop not only their technical abilities but also their creativity, musical independence, and personal artistic voice.

My teaching covers a wide range of musical styles, including **classical music, jazz, Balkan traditional music, folk music, and world music**, with an approach that respects the particular characteristics and expressive language of each musical tradition.

Every lesson is carefully tailored to the student's individual level, learning pace, musical interests, and aspirations. Whether you are discovering the accordion for the first time, preparing a performance, improving your technique, or exploring new musical styles, my goal is to provide a supportive, inspiring, and enjoyable learning experience.

Accordéoniste professionnel, concertiste international et pédagogue expérimenté, je propose des cours d’accordéon personnalisés pour enfants et adultes, du grand débutant au musicien avancé et professionnel.

Mon approche pédagogique accorde une importance particulière à **l’ergonomie, à la posture, au choix et à l’organisation des doigtés, ainsi qu’à la souplesse et à la liberté du geste instrumental**, afin de développer une technique naturelle, efficace et sans tensions inutiles.

Une place fondamentale est consacrée au **travail du son, à la maîtrise du soufflet, à la respiration musicale, au phrasé, aux nuances, à l’expression et à l’interprétation**. Je considère que la recherche d’une belle sonorité et la compréhension du discours musical sont essentielles pour développer une interprétation sensible, personnelle et expressive.

Les cours abordent également le rythme, la coordination, l’écoute, la compréhension musicale et l’improvisation, selon les intérêts et les objectifs de chaque élève. J’encourage le développement non seulement des compétences techniques, mais aussi de la créativité, de l’autonomie musicale et de la personnalité artistique.

Mon enseignement explore un vaste répertoire comprenant **la musique classique, le jazz, les musiques traditionnelles des Balkans, les musiques folkloriques et les musiques du monde**, en respectant les particularités stylistiques et les traditions d’interprétation de chaque répertoire.

Chaque cours est adapté au niveau, au rythme d’apprentissage, aux intérêts et aux aspirations de l’élève. Que vous souhaitiez découvrir l’accordéon, perfectionner votre technique, préparer une prestation musicale ou explorer de nouveaux horizons, mon objectif est de vous accompagner dans un cadre à la fois rigoureux, stimulant, bienveillant et agréable.
