About Me

I am an energetic and positive person who loves making music. My passion is to be on stage playing and sharing music with others. I also enjoy teaching because I love the unique connection music does with human beings; it takes out the best of ourselves and in our hearts!!

I specialized in two instruments: saxophone and viola ( I can teach violin as well). I have 20+ years of teaching experience, I work with adults and children of all ages, from beginners to advanced levels. My extensive teaching experience and performing expertise have given me a vast range of methodologies ideal for adapting my teaching to the needs and pace of individual students. I am familiar with Trinity and ABRSM syllabus since 2011.

I also took additional courses in Basics on arrangements and composition (software MuseScore and Sibelius), Emotional Intelligence in Education and Stress, Management in Education, and Mindfulness. In the lessons, I incorporate the Alexander and Feldenkrais Techniques principles.

Reviews (5)

Very friendly, helpful and supportive! In just 2 lessons I have made so much progress.
Took a very nice lesson with Estela. There were two of us. Violin and saxophone lessons. Estela was professional and paid attention to small details. She was patient and kind. We are already looking forward to the upcoming lessons.

My first violin lesson with Estela was very nice, she is patient, sweet and explains well. If I take another class I will definitely book with her again.

Estela is very nice and knowledgeable. In my first viola lesson in years, she paid a lot of attention to the correct position of the body (shoulders, arms) and of the hand and fingers, which I really liked, because there is less chance of injuries in the long run. She is cheerful, patient and friendly and I will definitely take more lessons.

Estella is a very positive, always happy teacher. Even though my son has been having on-line lessons with her, we can always feel her positive attitude during the lessons. She is very patient, gives lots of important tips and feedback, which has been helping him to guide his learning, improving in every aspect of it. We can see how much she care about the whole learning experience. It’s been very useful to expend his time while at home doing the lessons. He has been practicing more and has been feeling more motivated since he started the lessons with her. We definitely recommend her as a Saxophone teacher!

Eduardo
Saxophone, Clarinet, Piano, Impro and Music Theory lessons for all ages and levels, physically & Online by a Music Master graduate!
Hi! My name is Eduardo, a professional musician and long-time music teacher. I am offering physical and online lessons in Music Theory, Improvisation and Instrument. #Harmony #Composition #Solfège #Saxophone #Clarinet #Piano Lessons are addressed to every student profile, regardless of age, level of expectations (no matter if it is seen as a hobby or rather if the individual is getting prepared for official Conservatory auditions, etc.). We will play and/or focus on what the student is willing to deepen into (whatever music style they are interested in, more theoretical aspects or rather practical ones), trying to get the maximum profit of the employed time, and prioritising the actual learning of the person as the main factor for their motivation. I obtained my Jazz Music Master's program at the Prince Claus Conservatoire of Groningen in June 2022. Previously, in 2018, I graduated from my music Bachelor's at the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu in Barcelona (Spain).

Daniele

Hi, I'm Daniele, a saxophonist and teacher with a Master's degree from Italy, and currently a student at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague. My course is designed for anyone who wants to discover the beauty of the saxophone and music in general, learning to play in an authentic and personal way. During the lessons, I focus on developing technical skills, but also on emotional expression, which is essential in music for me. Each student will have a personalized path, tailored to their needs and potential, so that music becomes a tool for personal growth. If you're curious to explore the world of the saxophone and music, I'd be happy to guide you on this journey!

Manuel
Private Classical Saxophone Lessons: Individual Guidance
Hi! My name is Manuel and Im a Portuguese Classical Saxophone player studying here in Den Haag. My lessons are suitable for all ages and levels. Teaching has been a big dream of mine for some years now and I've finally decided to pursue it. I look forward to be able to transmit the knowledge I've gathered over the years as well as to spark in my students the love for this amazing instrument that is the Saxophone. See you!

Özgün
Saxophone lessons for all levels! (Online or at your place)
With beginner saxophone students, we will first work on proper instrument holding and posture. Then, before blowing into the saxophone, we will practice long-tone exercises using the mouthpiece. Once comfortable with these fundamentals, we will start producing sound from the instrument and learning the notes. We will focus on long-tone exercises to develop control and consistency. We gradually start incorporating short exercises or simple melodies as the student progresses. Learning and progressing on an instrument mostly depends on the student's dedication and practice habits. If you love music and commit time to it, you can reach a good level in a short period!

António

Guillermo
Clarinet and Saxophone classes online to develop your own musicality
In the classes we will address the different elements that make up music in different styles, knowing the particular language of each one. To do this, we will work on the different tools that we have with each instrument at the level at which each one is. We all know music but many times they make us believe that no, that it is necessary to know how to read and write. That is the graphic part of the language that we will learn little by little, music is a compendium of many other things. Some that we already know and others to know. We will study the use of the keys and the positions of the clarinet, or the sax, the best way to position ourselves whether we play standing or sitting, the most efficient way to use the air, the diaphragm, the muscles. We will learn to form a good embouchure and we will develop a study method adapted to each one, according to their tastes, possibilities and interests. I work with boys and girls from different parts of the world as well as with adults and the elderly. In my experience I learned that, truly, the greatest limitation that we find ourselves is the very feeling of not being able, of believing that we cannot. The support of a dedicated teacher is essential to get out of those places where we accidentally enter and that sometimes limit us. We all feel that sometime. It is time for us to remedy it. I will provide my own materials in pdf, video and audio. There is no age limit.
