Piano lessons in Zwolle and surroundings (also Amsterdam) with an enthusiastic and friendly teacher (graduated master student)

From 79.98 C$ /h

About my lessons :)

- INDEPENDENCE
There is a Chinese proverb that says, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” In my classes, I try to get my students to think so that in the future they will not have to rely on others to make their own choices when playing a piece.

- HEALTHY HABITS
Musicians can get hurt if they are not careful, so it is important to have good posture, efficient technique and study method.

- ENJOY
Music should be all about enjoyment. And in lessons too! I like to think I have a good sense of humor, so laughter is guaranteed during lessons too.

- PERSONALIZATION
Teaching is not “one size fits all”. That is why I adapt my lessons for each type of student. Duration, methodology, price and planning are determined based on the student’s needs.

About Me

Hoi :)

Ik ben Mariav. Ik ben een 25-jarige Spaanse pianiste die al drie jaar in Nederland woont.

Ik begon lessen te geven toen ik 17 was en Ik vind het geweldig. Eigenlijk heb ik er mijn onderzoek over geschreven. De titel was: The Teaching Technique. How could the way I teach arm-weight technique, focusing on legato and phrasing, be improved?

Ik ben een zeer toegewijde en enthousiaste lerares. Ik doe er alles aan om mijn studenten te helpen verbeteren. Ik wil dat mijn lessen leuk en interessant zijn. Ik denk graag dat ik een goed gevoel voor humor heb, dus lachen is ook gegarandeerd tijdens de lessen :D

Education

Ik begon met piano spelen toen ik 5 jaar was. In mijn thuisstad Málaga (Spanje) heb ik de bachelor klassieke muziek afgerond. Toen kwam ik naar Nederland om de masterstudie in ArtEZ Conservatorium, Zwolle bij Frank van de Laar te volgen.

Onlangs heb ik onder andere deelgenomen aan het Akoesticum Talent Program Chamber Music Edition (2018), waar ze lessen heeft gehad bij Jean-Bernard Pommier, Marcel Baudet, David Dolan, Malcolm Singer, Jan Talich en Gregor Horsch; de Mozarteum Summer Academy (2018) in de klas van Ya-Fei Chuang of de International Holland Music Sessions (2019) in de klas van Michel Béroff. Ze nam ook deel aan een muziektheaterworkshop met Thanasis Deligiannis georganiseerd door het Lentefestival in Utrecht (2019).

Andere pianisten die een grote invloed op mij hadden zijn: Gordana Komericki, Estefanía Rosado, Daniel Ábalos, Antonio Simón, Kennedy Moretti en Miguel Ángel Ortega Chavaldas.

Ik ben momenteel lid van het hedendaagse muziekensemble ‘ArtEZ Moderne’. Tegelijkertijd blijf ik studeren bij prof. van de Laar.

Experience / Qualifications

Ik heb een aantal prijzen gewonnen, waarvan de belangrijkste de 1e prijs is in de XI Solistenwedstrijd (2016) georganiseerd door het Conservatorium voor Hogere Muziekstudies van Málaga in de categorie Symfonisch orkest, met de mogelijkheid om met het Conservatorium Orkest het pianoconcert in G van Maurice Ravel uit te voeren. Verder heb ik de XI Málaga Musical Foundation Award voor het Beste Academische Rapport van het Conservatorium voor Hogere Muziekstudies van Málaga 2017 gewonnen, een beurs waarmee ik hier de master kon doen.

Ik hou van tekenen, fotograferen en video’s maken. Ik combineer dit graag met mijn pianospel om multidisciplinaire projecten te creëren. Twee van die projecten zijn in première gegaan bij het kasteel het Nijenhuis, Heino (2018 en 2019).

Spanish lessons in Zwolle and the surrounding area with an enthusiastic and friendly teacher (graduated classical piano master student)

43.32 C$ /h

Hello!
I am Mariavi. I am a 25-year-old Spanish pianist who has been living in the Netherlands for three years. I teach piano which I really enjoy doing. I enjoy teaching so much that I now also teach Spanish!
I am a very dedicated and enthusiastic teacher. I do everything I can to help my students improve. I like to think I have a good sense of humor, so laughter is guaranteed during classes too :D
With my own experience as a foreign language student in mind, I find my lessons very dynamic, with different approaches and with a focus on talking. Although, if you need to focus on something else, I can of course adapt to your needs

Hi! I have over 7 years of teaching experience from young kids to adults of all levels and I love it! My goal is for my students to find joy in playing an instrument and have fun during the lessons. I also aim to make every student come out of the lesson feeling motivated to carry on learning, and tailor the lessons to what they want to learn and how to achieve their goal.
I can also help students prepare for their piano exams and theory exams.

My name is Teis. I am a Danish guitarist trained in Jazz music at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and USC Thornton School of Music (Los Angeles). I have played since age 7, studied since age 13, and played professionally since age 18.

I work professionally as a band leader, composer, and side person.

After around 25 years of experience on the guitar, I can confidently say that I am equipped to share the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years.

In all honesty: I have never found myself to be particularly "talented". But I am a hard worker. I truly believe that talent is not something you are born with, but something you can develop and grow.

Together we will explore secrets and tips for a healthy guitar routine. We will improve your technique and ear training abilities with direct and fun exercises.

Whether you are just a beginner or an intermediate/advanced guitarist, we can explore the instrument and all its possibilities.

Practicing and playing with a teacher in a one-on-one situation is the most effective way to get better faster, and I advise it to all the guitar and music lovers out there.

In my guitar course, we start from where you are at and set a goal fitting to what you want to achieve. For example, our focus could be a.o.:

Fingerpicking
Soloing
Accompanying yourself
Songwriting

Two ways to go about it;

Single lesson: We go from where you are at the moment, and I help you move forward.

5 or 10 lesson bundle: I will make a detailed plan for you and we will conclude the lessons with a performance of some sort. I will help you elevate and broaden your skill set, in your preferred style, but also ear training and theory. We will build a sustainable practice routine together, and you will get access to a library of practice play-alongs and manuals, that you can use to build a solid platform as a musician!

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

I am now mainly active as a performer of contemporary/experimental music, as well as classical music, freelancing in various orchestras in the Netherlands, having played in venues such as Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, Concertgebouw or TivoliVredenburg. I offer cello lessons, regardless of the level - whether you are a curious beginner or more advanced player, i'm happy to collaborate and share my knowledge and experience with you, as well as inspire your creativity regarding both playing the right notes, and making artistic choices.

That includes tutorials on engraving rules, orchestration, working in DAWs (Ableton) and using sheet music software (Sibelius, MuseScore), as well as building your craft and workflow. I'm experienced in writing both instrumental and electronic music, as well as performance art, live electronics and multidisciplinary projects. I have also collaborated with institutions like National Polish Radio or CelloWercken Festival Zutphen.

Piano lessons for beginners, intermediate and advanced players.

The lessons are designed to meet your personal musical interests and goals. Whether you're drawn to the structure and beauty of classical music or the improvisational freedom of jazz, I can guide you through both worlds.

In classical lessons, we’ll focus on developing strong technique, understanding music theory, and exploring works from famous composers. If you’re more interested in jazz, I’ll introduce you to improvisation, chord progressions, and learning to express your own musical voice.
My approach is flexible and based on where you are as a musician. I believe in creating a supportive, relaxed environment where you can feel comfortable exploring your creativity and growing at your own pace.

Lessons are focused on not just playing the piano, but understanding and enjoying the music you play. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to deepen your skills, I’ll help you develop both your technique, phrasing, expressiveness. and your musical ear.

Hi there,

I’ve been playing guitar since I was 12 and was immediately hooked. Within a year I started playing in youth bands and projects, and during high school I moved to a music school where I began performing with bands and teaching guitar to kids as my first job. I later completed two bachelor’s degrees, the second in jazz guitar, at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Since then I’ve been working full time as a session guitarist, songwriter, and musical director with artists like Karsu, Alain Clark, Ruth Jacott, Jennie Lena, and many others, as well as releasing my own music as an independent artist under my stage name Jessy Hay. I’m extremely passionate about music theory, ear training, and music history, and I try to combine all of these with practical approaches to create a complete package for guitar enthusiasts.

Over the years I’ve developed many methods and seen hundreds of students grow from being stuck on the instrument to becoming full-on improvisers and composers across many genres. I love to combine the theory and improvisation I’ve learned from jazz, together with the groove and rhythm from funk and soul, the attitude from rock, and the production and songwriting skills from pop music. I’m also very interested in Middle Eastern music, for students who want to explore other scales, Maqams, and musical languages. Lessons usually start by discussing the student’s goals and current level, followed by exercises and pieces tailored to their needs. I also provide guidance on instrument setup, tone, and technique, to ensure a solid foundation. My aim is to give students a full 360° view of music: understanding the language, knowing what you’re doing, and developing your own ways of improving by becoming more familiar with both the instrument and the musical language itself.
If this sounds like something for you, I would love to hear from you.
