In the lesson the focus is on technique, speed, reading skills, coordination, all different styles and also what the student wants to play.
If you are struggling with speed or if you are just starting to play, good technique is very important. Moreover, a badly learned technique is difficult to unlearn later.
You will learn which type of drumsticks are most suitable, the assembly and tuning of your drum kit, the choice of heads and cymbals, etc.
I can also help you with the purchase of new equipment.
The lessons take place at the student's home.

About Me
I have been playing drums and piano for over 20 years now.
After all these years I have summarized my insights in a series of lessons:
I learn a good method that you can use yourself.
I also want to teach you to look through all the advertisements and simply buy solid materials. That doesn't have to be expensive by the way!
Education
I studied at LUCA School of Arts in Leuven (the former Lemmens Institute) where I studied Music Pedagogy.
Learning to let diverse audiences enjoy music and make music is a philosophy that I hold very close to my heart. In that training I developed my musical competences into passionate craftsmanship and became an all-round musician who plays and improvises.
Experience / Qualifications
I have taught in music studios, private lessons. Recently I have been conducting a choir. I also play in various orchestras and bands. I also teach music at the art academy.

There is no doubt that English has become the language of the World. We live in an increasingly interdependent society where speaking English enables us to engage with the world around us in a meaningful way, to connect on a deeper level with those we meet, all the while better preparing us to succeed in the global economy,

We all know that learning a language is much easier when we are younger so why not give your child a head start. Studies show that learning a second language has many social and cognitive benefits such as improved memory, better focus and attention skills as well as improved empathy and more open mindedness.

I am a native English speaker with 12 years international teaching experience. I can help with schoolwork if your child already studies English or we can work on a personalised curriculum (age and skills dependent). Length of class to be discussed. (Age dependent)

Trough the course of my education period and in my professional life I have stumbled upon a lot of issues and difficulties I needed to figure out how to solve. Studying with multiple professors and going to private lessons gave me (and still is) different pieces of the puzzle and together with my own observations, I started to understand it is really about knowing how things operate and giving it some love and practice. I want to share everything I know to help you become a great violin player.

Together we start from the beginning where many drummers start from.
Motor skills, maintaining rhythm and learning to sense musical numbers.

Drumming is basically determining how fast/slow a song is played, and when the transitions come.
Learning to sense these things is the beginning of the first lessons.

We start immediately on the drum kit, and you automatically acquire the knowledge while you play.
