Classical percussion and Drums lessons. Marimba, Vibraphone, Xylophone, Timpani, Snare drum and Drums in a lot of musical genres 🥁
I am a classical percussionist and a drummer, with many years of teaching and playing experience. I completed a Bachelor and a Master course in classical percussion in Italy, now I am studying a Master in Jazz & Pop drums at the HKU in Utrecht.
I have an excellent knowledge of musical theory due to my studies and I love teaching because sharing my passion with others is important to me. I have experience teaching many students, between the ages of 5 and 50, since I was 18. I taught in two music schools, led projects in kindergartens and gave percussion instrument lessons in high schools. I trained students as percussionists in two school orchestras. Additionally, I used to write and produce learning materials with my students, to encourage accessible learning.
My main teaching objective is to help students to find their personal way of playing and studying, without forgetting the most important thing; having fun. I understand that music should be fun, and those students not having fun will not get the best results. I usually start my lesson with the basics such as reading music, holding sticks and posture. I evaluate the student’s strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to reflect and evoke healthy self-criticism, to help them improve with a positive attitude.
I always try to inspire my students, and at the same time I am inspired by them, as by playing music together we can learn a lot from each other. Whilst my students have learned a lot from me, likewise, I have learned a lot from my students and this has been very valuable to my development.
I believe I would be an asset to you, because I am a flexible, open minded, experienced teacher.

Davide (born August 17, 1995) is an Italian drummer and classical percussionist.His love for music was born when he saw a friend of his playing. He liked it so much that he knew he wanted to be a musician too.

Davide started playing the drums at the age of 11 after some piano lessons.
A graduate of the “F. Petrarca” Music High School, Davide also obtained a degree and a master in classical percussion at the Convervatory “R. Franci” in Siena.

One-on-one lessons in classical piano playing. Old or modern music, everything is possible!I have been playing classical piano for 14 years. Obviously a lot solo, but also in ensembles, as an accompanist for flutists, violinists, clarinetists and singers. I was also a paid rehearsal director and pianist for a music theater company for a while and I played concerts in an orchestra.
More importantly, I also enjoy teaching! Whether you are just starting out or have been working for some time, together we can tinker with your technique and execution.
Hernan
Berklee College of Music Graduate offers private lessons of Guitar, Harmony & Improvisation in UtrechtThe way I teach actually depends entirely on the student. The way I explain the concepts, plan and structure the lessons and approach each subject all depends on whether the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced, and whether he or she has some experience on the subject.
Each student has different needs and different abilities. It's just a matter of getting to know the student, in order to identify both the weaknesses and strengths on which to work.

Ayla
Cello, Piano and Music lessons in Utrecht Centrum. All levels and different genres!My goal as a music teacher is to make the students able to experience all types of emotions by playing music, understanding the musical process from its roots with a creative approach. My lessons are designed according to the specific needs of each student and the main objective is to guide them in the optimal direction to achieve their full potential in a fun way. Thereby, the instrument becomes a tool to understand what making music really means and will be a way for the student to express his emotions. My approach to the lessons can provide a lot of creativity, fun and originality.
How will my lessons look like
From the first lesson, the student will start making music. We will begin learning the basic concepts of music, developing listening and rhythmic skills with fun exercises. Lessons will also be focused on learning the basics of music theory, creating a solid technical base and paying special attention to having a relaxed and healthy body posture. My academic and professional experience has helped me create a teaching method where improvisation is an essential tool for the student. I enjoy working on it from the beginning since it is a perfect way to develop musicality.
Playing different music genres together
As a musician, another of my sources of inspiration is to get to know and to learn from different styles, playing and experimenting with music from the classical period until the most avant-garde style. During the lessons, we will play pop, jazz, classical and many other styles. I would like to explore the instrument with the student in a fun way, growing, improving, and discovering new ways of making music together. During the lessons the students and I could play together, either playing some duos with the cello or accompanying them with the piano, which is an activity that I really enjoy. Playing together with more people and with a polyphonic instrument from the beginning will give the student clues to learn how to play in ensembles and listen to all the different voices that can be part of any musical composition.

Drum lessons in Jazz&Pop Drums, all levels and genres welcome!Hello everyone, I am a drummer from Greece, currently living in the NL(Utrecht).During the previous years I have been playing in many bands with different genres, from middle eastern fusion to metal and Latin and I'm currently studying in a Jazz&Pop conservatory. The lessons are designed according to your goals and repertoire, so feel free to join the lessons regardless of your age/level/music genre! During the class, we're going to work towards the things you'd like to achieve, but also the ability to play with others and improvise! Having followed many Alexander Technique programs, I find it very important to develop some basic techniques to avoid injuries during playing and studying, but also share some tips for stage fright and stress while performing!
