Hi! I’m Sara from Italy, and since I was young, music has been a constant companion in my life. I’ve always seen it as a powerful form of self-expression and a way to connect with yourself and others. Throughout my piano and clarinet education, I’ve encountered many inspiring teachers and classmates, as well as some challenging moments. Becoming a teacher reflects my wish to share my passion for these instruments. I love helping people discover the joy of music, and I adapt every lesson to make learning effective, fun, creative, and meaningful.

In my classes, you will find a creative and supportive environment where your individual skills, goals, and musical preferences come first. Taking the time to understand these elements helps me tailor lessons in a creative and effective way, making sure the material and repertoire suit what you enjoy and want to achieve.

I create a positive and encouraging atmosphere where students feel comfortable and motivated to explore music at their own pace. Gentle and clear communication is very important to me, so we stay connected and work together to support progress.

Whether you’re starting out, looking to improve, or aiming for exams, my lessons are designed to be flexible, engaging, and focused on what matters most to you! :)

First of all, I am glad that you found my information here. Unfortunately I'm not pleased that I often find some very bad amateurs try to fake themselves as they are professional pianist or teacher. They display themself fancy as they want since this labor isn't required a certification when it's private lessons. Beginners can not really decide if they are good or not. It is risky for motivated students. I have got some students through this site after having lessons by those fake teachers and I had to do so much work to re-start from the beginning with them.

Personally I was struggling to play the piano as well due to my first piano teacher who couldn't teach me properly at all. Several years later, I had rare luck to found better teachers who have certain experiences as concert pianists. I started trying to get rid of my bad behaviors and rebuild new technique over 10 years on the piano. It takes so much time to get rid of.. It was tough work but now I can really tell you what it was and you can see some results on my videos here. I got very conscious of using my body proper way while practicing and I got more flexibilities on the piano. Let me share what I can do with you.

Biography
Shintaro is considered a unique pianist as performing modern and historical pianos parallel. He spent his childhood and student years in Japan. He already received first prizes at several known national piano competitions in Japan while he was studying at Kyoto City University of Arts. In the year of his master's graduation, he gave a solo recital in Kyoto, and his recital was considered as one of the best performances of over 200 concerts in the year by the AOYMA Music Foundation. He earned The AOYAMA Music Awards in 2010 and graduated master of piano performance in KCUA with summa cum laude. He continued his career as a soloist with several professional orchestras in Japan. Some of those concerts were broadcast on TV and radio. Shintaro continued studying the piano at Lucerne Conservatory with Konstantin Lifschitz supported by Hella Siegrist Fonds and AOYMA Music Foundation. He performed the Left-hand concerto by Ravel with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra and James Gaffigan in KKL Lucerne Concert Hall in 2014.

"A brilliant pianist with solid technique and sensitivities" - Luzerner Zeitung 2014
“Elegantly and with creative power, Shintaro presented Mozart's Piano Concerto in E-flat Major KV 449, the layers of sound always audible, the dynamics balanced. It was surprising that the jury awarded him second prize. “ - Freiburger Nachrichten 2015

At the same time, his interests carried forward him to play chamber music, Lied duo, and historical practices on historical fortepianos. He received the first prize at the Orpheus-Swiss Chamber Music Competition participated by master students of all Swiss conservatories in 2014, and the second prize at The Rotary International in Lugano. Shintaro moved to the Netherlands in 2015, and he completed his master of fortepiano (historical pianos) at The Hague Royal Conservatory. He has worked as an accompanist and ensemble pianist for the Rotterdam Philharmonic orchestra, Opera2day, Residentie Orkest in Den Haag, Noord Nederlands Orkest. He also performed Brahms's “Deutsch Requiem” with Shuann Chai on historical piano and Luthers Bach Choir on the tour in 2020, "Mad King" by Maxwell Davies in New European Ensemble on the tour in 2021, a chamber music concert with François Fernandez and Yun Kyung Kim at the Beethoven Festival in 2022.
Shintaro is a member of the New European Ensemble for the new opera “Don Quichot” by Vanni Moretto (composer) and Stefano Pintor (Librettist) collaborated with Opera2day and La Fonte Musica in the tour 2023.

I am a professional classical musician with years of teaching experience in the UK. Teaching is a passion for me and I always strive to find the best possible teaching approach suitable for the student. I always care about the big themes of learning and teaching and I apply a selection trusted method to my lessons.

With me, you will be able to get a solid instrumental technique, together with a varied and inspired aesthetic understanding of the music. I also always make sure that musical and instrumental goals don't overshadow the importance of music lessons for the development of the child and my focus is first and foremost on students' own holistic development.

Please feel free to get in touch with me and have a chat about what you are looking for.

There are two grand pianos at the location in Den Haag.

For children, it is important to develop basic musical skills through Singing, Rythmique, and Ear training besides piano playing. I use one technical exercise book, the main textbook, and a theory book. Through these 3 books, students learn different aspects of music and they naturally get ready for exams and grades.

After acquiring basic skills, students study Harmony and Chord exercises too. These are useful for playing pops and jazz, and they obtain a deeper understanding of classical pieces too.

Private Piano lesson, from age 4 and above. Children can start the lesson after being able to read the numbers from 1 to 5 and the alphabet from A to G.

Advanced students who want to prepare for competitions, auditions, ABRSM, GCSE, IB exams, or the entrance exam of the conservatory.

The concert is held annually together with students of flute, violin, and composition teachers.

For the ages 1-7 years, I have group Rhythmique lessons.

Hi there! My name is Norica. I am a pianist and a piano teacher from Tokyo.

Just quickly to the point: My approach is holistic and systematic. It uses lots of fun exercises and nice educational materials from Japan in addition to the Internationally recognized standard books. (Don't worry, you don't have to understand Japanese!) You learn not only how to play piano but also how music works- music theory.

I know what my students are good at and not so good at right off the bat. That's why I can tailor the lesson plans to their goals and needs.

Also, if you like to take an ABRSM exam, the syllables will be tailored accordingly. So what will be tested on the day of the exam is integrated into the lessons and my class/lesson offers all-round preparation for the exam. I have helped my students pass G1, 3, 5 and 6 with a good score.

Another important aspect of my lesson is to focus on improving cognitive skills - increasing memory, right-hand-left-hand-coordination, sustained attention, nonverbal communication, and a feeling of independence and freedom.

I do so with unique materials from Japan and fun training.

Currently students from 4 to 76 years old are taking my lessons. As an educator, I am committed to the process of learning while making lessons enjoyable and constructive.

Please drop me a line if you're interested. If you have any questions about the lesson, feel free to ask.

I will be happy to answer all your questions!

Thank you

If you are looking for a piano class to teach you from the very basics (reading notes, theory, easy tunes) you have come to the right place! In my classes I plan according to the needs of each individual student, and I make a plan that can help the students' technique and musicality.
I’m Yasaman and I have Master’s in Music Education from the Royal Conservatoire of the Hague.
In my classes my focus is to teach my students how to read notes easily and how to be able to play the pieces that they like apart from our teaching method books.
The classes are in English.
Looking forward to playing piano with you!

- Do you want to enjoy the music with clarinet?
- Would you like to improve your clarinet skill?
- Do you want to play your favorite music?

I can support you in achieving your goals.

I am a professional musician with a Bachelor of music in Japan and Master of music in both The Hague (Koninklijk Conservatorium) and Germany (Hochschule für Musik Trossingen).
♫ I can offer you private lessons for children and adults from the basics to intermediate or higher levels.
Lessons can be taken at your place in or around the Hague, or online via Skype, WhatsApp.
If you are interested, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Experience
- Playing professionally with orchestras such as the Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century and Ensembles in Europe, Korea and Japan.
- Teaching clarinet and music for over 25 years in Japan, Germany and Netherlands. (Music school, Wind Orchestra, Chamber music, Group lesson and Private lesson.)

"I am a pianist. I started playing the piano at the age of seven and I am passionate about music. I am fascinated by the world of pedagogy, understanding that teaching is helping to learn. I am committed to my work with dedication and enthusiasm, and I believe that motivation is the key to both teaching and learning. I want to educate in values and I am committed to the pursuit of educational quality, based on equity and excellence. I am flexible and adaptable to each person, and I like teamwork. I appreciate discipline, rigor in my work, effort, and resilience. My aim is to help students learn constructively and to help them become autonomous as soon as possible. The focus is always on the student."

I structure the classes into three blocks, which I consider essential:

-Technique: through exercises and studies we must develop technical ability.
- Works of all styles: we learn from the great artists of all periods.
-Introduction to jazz and modern music: we will create a routine to work on improvisation and develop creativity.

These are the paths I propose, but each student is free to develop what he/she wishes. I also complement the classes with musical language and harmony.

Every pianist should focus on being a complete and balanced musician. We must develop aural skills, sight-reading, mastery of musical language and harmony, composition, improvisation, creativity, a critical spirit, good taste in music, and above all, a passion for music.

Get to play the music you like!
Get to know the beauty of classical music!
Engage in the beautiful process of discovering art!

- Teaching has been an essential part of my musical life. I have a great respect for this vocation and am ready to guide my pupils with responsibility and enthusiasm! I have taught people of ages between 5 and 75, people with all kinds of levels and backgrounds. I am willing to take every new situation as a challenge.

Have you always wanted to learn how to play the piano? Do you want to gain your confidence back after years of not playing? I have more than 10 years of experience teaching all levels and ages in a variety of different music genres. The lessons are tailor made to fit your level and goals, and can go beyond piano playing for those who want it (e.g. composition, songwriting, improvisation...)

I am concert pianist.
I have been working with children and adults for 25 years. I received an excellent professional education at the conservatory and graduate school. I am always very flexible about the wishes of my students. I also play jazz and teach synthesizer playing in addition to piano.

Are you looking for piano lessons for your child(ren) but don't know which teacher to trust?
The first music classes for a young student are always the most important, often determining whether the child will love the instrument or not, so they require special attention. Pretty scary, I imagine!

So, hello there! My name is Gina, and I am a specialized piano teacher in music education for children, with more than 7 years of experience teaching young pupils.
I have worked with dozens of piano beginners, ensuring they have the best start in their musical journey. By following various teaching methods that have been proven to positively impact children's overall music education, I make sure that my pupils remain interested and learn a lot from the very beginning!

You can book a first lesson where you—the parents—can also be present during the class. Who knows? Maybe you'll learn something new too!

See you soon!
Gina
