About Me
At the moment only online classesHi, I`m Sietse. I`m from the Netherlands and have been living in Belgium for over 10 years now.
Besides working as an actress, singer and theatremaker, I really enjoy teaching! I especially enjoy working as a personal coach together to reach you goals.
For me teaching is not a side-job beside my artistic carreer (nor it is the other way around) I always strife to combine the two, since, in my experience, they inspire each other immensly.
As a teacher I`m patient, friendly and I love to add some humor to the classes. However, I`m very ambitious and driven. Furthermore: creating a safe environment is fundamental.

I had my first lesson with Sietse and I immediately learned a lot. Sietse attaches great importance to healthy use of your voice and she is enthusiastic and energetic. In addition, her vision on singing suits me perfectly: get into your body, your feelings and the story you want to convey. I'm already looking forward to the next lessons!

ENGLISH BELOW
Ik help je graag met het starten met schrijven en/of het verbeteren van je vaardigheden! Of je nu zoekt naar een coach die je begeleidt in en feedback geeft op blogs, columns, korte verhalen, fictie of non-fictie - ik stort me er graag op.
Zelf ben ik voornamelijk werkzaam als schrijver van theaterteksten, maar ik heb ook ervaring met het schrijven van liedteksten, literaire vertalingen, essays etc.. Alle teksten benader ik dus vanuit een creatieve insteek en artistieke visie. Als theaterauteur houd ik me ook bezig met hoe een tekst klinkt - klinkt het niet prettig, dan kan hij vast beter geschreven worden.
Als coach richt ik me vooral op het geven van feedback op de teksten die je schrijft en help ik je graag op weg met opdrachten om te beginnen met schrijven en/of om het gevreesde writersblock af te schudden. Vind je het fijner om meer stil te staan bij theorie rond het schrijven, dan help ik je daar natuurlijk ook graag bij.
///
As a writer (mainly playwriting, but also songs, columns, literary translations and essays) I'm very interested in helping you either to start writing, or to better your writing.
We'll work mostly by practicing and discussing your work. If you prefer to zoom in on theoretics, I'm happy to guide you in that as well.
I'm a professional playwriter and dramaturg (and studied at LUCA School of Arts with Nico Boon, Freek Mariën and Nathan Vecht). I previously taught playwriting in different groups (CREA, Buitenkunst) and work as a scriptadvisor for professional theatre makers. Besides that, I often help people in writing resumes, papers and thesis papers.
ENGLISH BELOW
Do you feel insecure when speaking in front of groups? Do you feel you could have more fun speaking in front of groups? Are you afraid that the content of what you say will be lost?
Many people find it quite difficult to speak in front of groups. You may have heard the advice 'imagine everyone's in their underpants', but it didn't help (or you probably won't be reading this text).
Maybe you don't find public speaking all that difficult or scary, but you think you can get a lot more out of it.
I would like to help you become a better, more relaxed and open speaker. The coaching is completely tailored to your needs and needs, but we work, for example, on preparing, analyzing and/or writing a text, body posture and language, use of voice and empathy.
I was trained as an actress and singer, two subjects that give me a lot of baggage and inspiration when coaching public speaking. I have more than 8 years of experience as a coach and teacher.

Singing lessons for young and old, at your own pace (classical and other styles)Do you like to sing and want to develop your voice? Great, because singing is great fun and healthy!
During my lessons we will explore the possibilities of your voice together. The development of a healthy, natural voice and pleasure are central.
That is why the lessons are completely adapted to your qualities, taste and pace. Together we work on solid singing technique, breathing, articulation, interpretation, musicality and vocal hygiene. We explore the classical singing repertoire and look for music that suits your voice. You can also take a trip to other genres (jazz, pop, musical, ...) You learn to use your voice from a classical approach, but with good singing technique you can handle many styles!
Why you should come to class:
- You have always wanted to learn to sing, with or without a specific goal in mind
- You are curious about the possibilities for (further) developing your voice
- You are looking for a creative outlet
- You suffer from a often tired speaking voice and want to make it stronger
- You sing in a choir and you want to work on your singing technique or you need some extra help while studying
- ...
Whatever your motivation, you are always welcome!
Do you have questions or doubts about whether singing is something for you? Do not hesitate to contact me.

Start speaking Spanish from 0 or improve yours skillsLanguage and culture are essential to connecting with others, and as someone who loves both, I’m excited to share my passion for teaching. In addition to being an artist, I’ve developed a strong interest in languages, which is why I’ve decided to take this passion further by teaching my native language, Spanish.
In my classes, I offer a personalized and engaging approach to help you learn Spanish effectively. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to improve your skills, I teach from levels A0 to B2, focusing on grammar, vocabulary, and everyday expressions to help you communicate confidently with native speakers.
My goal is to ensure that each student learns at their own pace while encouraging you to speak from the very first lesson. I provide all necessary materials, including books, exercises, and audio resources.
The lessons can be taught in either English or Spanish, depending on your preference.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I’m looking forward to meeting you and helping you discover the beauty of the Spanish language.

Vocal lessons. Singing, and learning your body. Modern, pop, rap genres.Singing is the key to a lot of things in your body, not only physical, but also mental and emotional. In vocal lessons we will work on power of your voice, will learn how to understand and track internal processes in your body, thanks to which you will not only improve your voice, but also will be more confident and relaxed.
On vocal lessons with me you will have a 100% comfortable place with all music stuff and my full attention and support in every your step.

CINEMA, ACTING, IMPROVISATION WORKSHOPS - - -These sessions allow the development of skills and knowledge of the trade, with the game facing the camera, familiarization with the audiovisual environment and the camera tool, in the art of acting.
Your inventiveness and your uniqueness being at the center of your training, it is a question of dwelling on the objective criteria, such as the voice, the use of the body, the relationship with the partner, the capacity to occupy the space. But it is also the singularity and the commitment that are decisive.
The objective of this training is to be able to:
- Analyze and dissect a text
- Create, develop and embody a character
- Understand the artistic and technical writings of a film or a play
- Create, cultivate and develop one's artistic identity and singularity
(...)
Through simulations and role-playing, the association between theory and practice makes it possible to achieve its objectives.
PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid.
These sessions, for which you have asked me, also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). Indeed, they have the advantage of face-to-face sessions (ex: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (ex: the entire session transcribed in writing on the chat). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option.
- As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.
