Piano and or singing lessons with or without music theory in GhentPIANO
Foundation
First we start with the music theory, melody and chords. These are the essential building blocks for making music.
Style
Next we apply stylistic tools to bring the music to life. This could include jazz chords, blues riffs, walking bass lines, and more.
skills
We learn the skills (soloing, ear training, accompaniment, improvisation, lead sheets, analysis...)
Following this approach, you will finally understand the music that you are playing, and you will be able to apply the techniques to hundreds of other songs.
CVT COACHING
Hi! I am Tine, a singer, voice teacher and vocal coach. I am passionate about helping singers to make the most of their singing practice so they can thrive, grow, and become the powerful performers and communicators the world needs today.
I can help you train your voice and keep it healthy, develop your own unique sound, sing across different styles, manage performance anxiety, be authentic on stage, deliver powerful presentations, make more efficient goals and help you reach them.
It is possible to create all the sounds from all the styles / genres in a healthy way!
CVT METHOD?
Singing is not that difficult and everybody can learn to sing. CVT divideds the singing techniques into four main subjects. By combining elements of these four subjects, you can produce precisely the sounds you want. You will also be able to pinpoint your specific problems and mistakes, and you can focus on which techniques you wish to work on.
The four main subjects are:
The three overall principles – to ensure healthy sound production
The four vocal modes – to choose the 'gear' you want to sing in.
Sound colors – to make the sound lighter or darker.
Effects – to achieve specific sound effects.

CELLO & MUSIC LESSONS FOR ALL AGES AND LEVELS WITH A PROFESSIONAL CELLIST WITH 8 YEARS OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE (IN PERSON AND ONLINE)Are you in love with the sound of the cello but have never dared to start playing it?
Have you been playing the cello as an amateur and now need an expert to guide you?
Do you want to develop and improve your cello and musical skills?
Do you need reinforcement lessons?
Would you like to prepare for entrance exams to the conservatory?
Would you love to join a youth orchestra and need help preparing for the auditions?
...
These are the private cello lessons you were looking for!
My name is Miriam, I am a graduate in Master of Classical Music at KASK & Conservatorium in Ghent and currently I am studying a Posgraduate in Musical Performance Practice.
I've been teaching cello to children, teenagers and adults for 8 years, so I've acquired the necessary experience to be able to adapt to the different and personal needs and objectives of each student. My teaching methodology focuses on creating a friendly and relaxed environment (which does not mean undemanding!) in which students feel confident to express their own ideas and worries. In my lessons I focus on technical and postural questions, but we also reflect together on the music, as I like my students to develop their own musical ideas and not just imitate the teacher.
Contact me now to schedule your first lesson and take the first step toward your musical aspirations! :)

The most important thing is that we have a good time!

I am an Italian student of Violin, currently attending the Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice at KASK & Conservatorium in Gent.
I already have experience in teaching music and violin to children, teenagers and young adults. In those occasions, I discovered how much transmitting my love for music to other people - children, teenagers, adults, any age! - is one of my highest goals within my musical career.
I am aware that each student deserves a personal teaching approach, shaped on his/her own nature and attitude.
I will help students strengthen and consolidate their technical skills on the instrument, but we will also have a lot of fun in playing music!
My education:
- Postgraduate Musical Performance Practice course, at KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. Ongoing (2022-2023).
- Master Degree of Music in Performing Arts - Violin, issued by KASK & Conservatorium, HoGent. 2020-2022.
- Diploma in Violin (10-year course, old academic system) at the Conservatory of Music “G.P. da Palestrina” in Cagliari, Italy. 2009-2020.
The lessons will be held in English or in Italian.

I'm Irene, a researcher specialised in Psychology and Education living in Belgium. I have 8 years of tutoring experience from when I lived in Spain. During this time, I taught music to children, teenagers, and adults. I really enjoy interacting with students and sharing my passion for music, so I've decided to offer my tutoring services in Belgium as well.
In this course, I will adapt completely to your level and personal goals (or the goals of your child). Whether you want to start learning, improve or consolidate your technical skills, or prepare for an audition, I am here to help. My goal is to help you enjoy every bit of making music.

Eva
Piano lessons or music lessons adapted to your level and interestsCustomized lessons:
Teaching beginning children, beginning adults, or experienced students are completely different experiences that require completely different methods.
A constant focus in all cases is to ensure that students learn notation and music reading, which gives them some independence.
As a first step, I create a plan together with the student, depending on his or her personal goals, and supplement this with musical pieces that I think will complement the learning path.
Practical information:
I am available for online classes from August and at home from September 15, but I will not close schedules until the beginning of October.
If you have any questions or specific comments, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Pablo López
Improve your cello playing - Taught by Professional CellistHello!
My name is Pablo and I am a professional cellist.
In my 20+ years playing the cello I have been lucky to build an international career as a solo and orchestral musician in places like Bremen (Germany), Sweden (Göteborg), Spain (Malaga), and Belgium (Gent). I have 4+ years worth of experience teaching online/in person, in multiple countries, as well as a C1 Cambridge certificate of English. I also have a B1 level of Nederlands. I have music articles published as well.
My philosophy of teaching is to teach my students in a comprehensive way how to use their body 100% efficiently.
I will teach them how to play in the most natural way, getting rid of tensions and fears in the process. I will tackle this as cello technique, but I will also work on being expresive and how to make the cello sing.
Thank you for your time.
