Custom piano lessons: face-to-face or online. [teens and adults]

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Piano lessons adapted to your taste and level. You tell us what you expect from the lessons so that I can give you optimal piano lessons.

For example: you want to learn to read and play piano pieces. I must also give you the relevant theory. It is your choice to study additional theory, but it is not necessary. My lessons are therefore efficiently oriented. As a student, you can ultimately choose which piano pieces we work on (it must first be approved by me), so that playing the piano remains fun and educational. I cover classical music, pop music, video games, movies, anime music, etc... so many genres!

Another example: you want to make a piano cover of an existing piece (e.g. pop music or movie music). I will give you the theory of chords and reading staves. This way you can get started quickly. Together we will practice enough so that you understand everything well! We can also improvise together on your piano.

Feel free to message us if you have any questions :)

I have already given private lessons to adults, teenagers and children both online and in person. Both options work great! We do this online via Skype or another app if desired. Physically we do it in Leuven city centre, where there is a handy large indoor bicycle shed.
Ideally I teach once a week, you then continue practicing on your piano at home towards the next lesson the following week. If you would like lessons every other week or lessons twice a week, that is also possible for me.

Why choose to learn to play the piano? It has been scientifically proven that playing an instrument makes someone smarter (good brain training). You can show your piano skills to others, but you can also make yourself happy and reward through your piano. I've heard from my friends that they regret not learning to play an instrument, hopefully you won't be like them...
You only Live one time! What are you waiting for?
I hope to see you then! ^_^

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
* As a child I practiced a lot at the piano, I have been taking piano lessons since I was 10. I was able to play the full version of Fur Elise as a first-year piano student when I was 10 years old. Practice makes perfect!
* I would like to hire a student who wants to learn to play the piano. This way I can share my knowledge, experience and passion for piano with this student!
* I have a naturally cheerful, motivating personality which can help with your motivation and passion for piano. But I can also be strict enough to teach you discipline when practicing the piano :D

Reviews (10)

Very kind and professional teacher. She understands my needs and she is also very flexible. She is very passionate about piano and she gave me extra time for free, just for the sake of teaching me well. I am very happy that she is my teacher !
Very patient and cheerful teacher with a (obviously) young mind. That is necessary for people like me. For me it has to remain fun/fun/educational/interesting, and this way I can maintain it.

Piano and/or music theory lessons for every level and age! (NL/EN/FR)
Hey! Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano but aren't sure where to start? Or maybe you just want to take your piano playing to the next level? In either case, you can come to me for piano and theory lessons tailored to your needs! Are you a fan of pop/jazz music rather than classical? We can easily take care of this too! As a young student, I am often closer to the practice of teaching and can sense where the student's goals lie. Very flexible throughout the week and weekends, either at the student's home, at my grand piano, or possibly online (especially music theory).

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!

Bonaventura
Flute technique, breathing system, repertoire and theory
The flute it’s a quite complex instrument, where the challenge is to find the balance between all the parameter, such as posture(in order to learn how to play fast passage), lips and everything concerning breathing technique(in order to get the best clear and powerful sound). It’ my job to guide the student in order to let him/her find that stability in order to get best results possible.
