    Guitar lessons, self-paced (with music theory and basic singing if required)

    Have you always wanted to play guitar or had the musical curiosity to develop your skills on a 6-string? Or maybe you’d like your children to learn an instrument? Learning guitar is a great way to further explore your own capabilities and to develop a deeper enjoyment and understanding of music. Music is, also, a very powerful tool for emotional self-regulation.

    I have years of experience performing for live audiences with local bands in different countries (Mexico, USA, Germany, Belgium), from rock, metal, blues, indie, pop, and even folk. I always adapt my lessons to the student’s intuition and to what the student wants to achieve (from learning their favorite songs to particular techniques).

    To enjoy and have fun playing is always very central to my lessons. You can also add basic music theory, and some singing techniques to broaden your musical experience (only the basic singing lessons would represent an extra cost). Let’s awaken the dormant artist in you!

    About Me

    I am Paulo. I am Mexican and since I can remember, I have always been very passionate about music. I also play bass guitar, some drums, and some keys whenever needed! I am currently a student of an advanced master’s degree in philosophy at KU Leuven, looking forward for a PhD position. I have experience both as a teacher and as a university undergrad professor, so teaching has always been a part of my career. My aim while teaching has always been to make the process of learning an enjoyable experience, and music is no exception to that!

    Education

    - Master degree and Advanced Master in Philosophy, KU Leuven.
    - BA degree in Philosophy, Universidad de Guadalajara.
    - Freie Universität Berlin (research exchange)
    - St. Olaf College, USA (research exanche)

    Experience / Qualifications

    - Universidad La Salle (Germanistic Studies Professor)
    - Academia Europea (English, German, and Spanish teacher)
    - Universidad Internacional (Literature, Ethic, Philosophy)
    - Performed since ca. 2004 in bands with a wide array of genera: rock, metal, blues, pop, folk, country and even some jazz. I have live experience in several countries (Mexico, USA, Germany, and Belgium) and have given music lessons for several years now.
    I recently graduated with honors from an Advanced Master in Philosophy at KU Leuven. I have given lessons in Philosophy from high-school to undergrad professorship in my home country. A wide range of the topics of my interest (Ethics, Logic, Metaphysics, Phenomenology) and a passion for teaching always motivates me to make the teaching/tutoring experience both enriching and enjoyable. Struggling with a subject in the area of Philosophy or just want to dive into philosophical thinking? You’re in the right place! I also offer proof-reading and preparation of papers/exams (it will imply an extra cost, so please mention it when you book the lesson).
    Would you like to learn Spanish and dive into Spanish-speaking culture (films, literature, music)? Spanish is the fourth most spoken language in the world, present in a whole continent. By learning Spanish, you’ll get access to a whole cultural world, expanding your intercultural and communicational skills. With years of experience in language academies, I adapt to the goals, needs, and level of each of my students. We will also dive into Spanish-spoken literature (narrative, short-story, poetry), films, and music to broaden the learning experience! Do not hesitate and start learning, or improving, your Spanish in a dynamic and enjoyable way!

    Davy
    Customised guitar lessons from classical to acoustic and electric
    My name is Davy, I am 34 years old and have had the guitar in my fingers for 25 years. I graduated from the Music Academy Tongeren for both classical and electric guitar. In addition, I attended 2 years of Conservatory Jazz at LUCA School of Arts Campus Lemmens Institute. I started teaching in various situations since I was 16, both group lessons and individual lessons on instrument and music theory. Sharing my knowledge with others has always been a great passion. That is why I now offer private lessons tailored to my needs where I live in Leuven. This for both acoustic, classical and electric guitar in a range of styles. What you can expect is not a fixed course that we go over from A to Z, but a course that we build ourselves, as it were, focused on your musical taste, knowledge and goal on your instrument. Together with you, I will look at how I can teach you the necessary basics in a way that you can use it best for the genres you want to learn to play. I look forward to going on this musical journey of discovery with you!

    Rosie
    Classical guitar lessons for beginner, intermediate, or advanced players
    I am passionate about teaching guitar! Over the last 10 years I have been teaching students from ages 7-70 from complete beginners to advanced players with one thing in common - their wish to play guitar more comfortably and have fun while doing it! I am a classical guitarist with a background in pedagogy, psychology and physiotherapy, my approach - methodical. While working on the things you want to improve and learn I will also help you develop a deep understanding of the theory and principles that music is built upon. Our lessons will be exploratory and imaginative whilst also underpinned by technical knowledge so that you can enjoy playing comfortably and without pain. My aim is to get you to where you want to be playing guitar, whether that be for friends at New Year or on the stage at Carnegie Hall!

    Kübra

    Yaiza
    Guitar Lessons. All levels. Classes available in English and Spanish.
    I love teaching and sharing music. I have extensive experience in the field of classical music but also as a singer-songwriter or other music styles. I like to discover the interests of each student and offer content that fuels their enthusiasm for making music and continuing to learn.

    Tobias
    Classical guitar for beginners / several years of guitar experience and for advanced players
    20 year old student in Leuven who likes to help people get a lot of pleasure / support from playing the classical guitar. Just graduated after 11 years of conservatory classical guitar. 9 years basic diploma and 2 years specialization classical guitar. In addition, followed the following courses: music theory / music history / improvisation (this on electric guitar) / band coaching / ensemble playing / rock school ... Can impart the most on a technical level and in the field of interpretation on the classical guitar. In consultation with the student during the first lesson, we determine what we want to achieve by the end of the lesson / lesson series. A particular piece? A new interpretation for a particular piece, a particular genre in which you are looking for a piece and want to learn? Something that always goes wrong? technical help? .. To get more enjoyment out of playing the guitar!

    Eli
    Guitar, Bass guitar, Ukulele and Piano lessons (Online or in Leuven)
    Are you a beginner who has started to learn guitar on his own, and can't see the trees for the wood anymore? Or do you already have some experience and want to learn something new? Then you've come to the right place! About myself: I have been playing both guitar and bass guitar for 8 years. I also have a solid foundation in music theory. I took lessons with Kristof Neyens (rock school leuven) for several years, and now I would like to share my experience. Classes: Depending on your preference, we can draw up a lesson plan together with individual assignments. I also try to work as much as possible with the genres that you like to listen to yourself, this is of course more motivating (after all, you don't want to try to teach Mozart to a Metal fan ;)) My approach is certainly not like that of the 'music theory' at the academy. From your first lesson you will immediately start playing songs. I only use music theory if it is really necessary or if you would like to delve into it. Practical: I follow distance education so I can actually go at any time of the week, online lessons are also a possibility. If you contact me and tell me which times suit you, we can certainly find a fixed time together!

    Ali
    Electric Guitar, Improvisation, finger style, backtracking
    I have been playing electric guitar for 16 years and I was a member of several rock bands before. In my courses, I mostly focus on improvisation over bluesy, jazzy or simple rock chords. For those beginners, I start with some basics until we reach the required level to improvise. By taking the classes, you will learn how to accompany other instruments and enjoy together with other musicians.

    Daniel
    Guitar lessons for all levels and musical interests
    Have you or your child always wanted to play but never taken lessons? Do you become frustrated while learning new pieces? Do you want to learn how to play music by ear or from notation? I am a dedicated classical guitarist with a decade of experience teaching people of all ages and levels. Over the years I've pursued many styles: from Western classical music to Indian classical music, from bluegrass and folk music to popular songs and jazz standards. I'm from New York City where I studied at top conservatories, and my playing has been heard in major concert venues in the US, India, Mexico, Canada, and most recently Belgium. I love working with new students to create a lesson plan tailor-fitted to their musical interests. Let's get playing! I'm able to host lessons in Leuven, travel to you, or meet via webcam.
