Saxophone, Clarinet, Piano, Impro and Music Theory lessons for all ages and levels, physically & Online by a Music Master graduate!Hi! My name is Eduardo, a professional musician and long-time music teacher. I am offering physical and online lessons in Music Theory, Improvisation and Instrument.
#Harmony #Composition #Solfège #Saxophone #Clarinet #Piano
Lessons are addressed to every student profile, regardless of age, level of expectations (no matter if it is seen as a hobby or rather if the individual is getting prepared for official Conservatory auditions, etc.).
We will play and/or focus on what the student is willing to deepen into (whatever music style they are interested in, more theoretical aspects or rather practical ones), trying to get the maximum profit of the employed time, and prioritising the actual learning of the person as the main factor for their motivation.
I obtained my Jazz Music Master's program at the Prince Claus Conservatoire of Groningen in June 2022.
Previously, in 2018, I graduated from my music Bachelor's at the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Liceu in Barcelona (Spain).

Private Music Lessons for Piano, Violin and Erhu (Chinese violin)As a Cambridge University graduate in the Faculty of Education, I am delighted to have settled down in the Netherlands since September 2019. I started piano at the age of 5, and music has been an important part of my life ever since.
Classically trained as a violinist, I picked up another instrument named Erhu (Chinese violin) and became a professional performer. I am experienced in teaching both children and adults, from different cultural backgrounds.
Also, I have been actively involved in both Western and Chinese orchestra since high school. Thanks to my years of experience in being an orchestra member and soloist, I am also familiar with orchestral music.
As a humble music therapist, I am passionate about music and believe in the power of music. I trust that music is in everybody and I respect every student's individuality and thus tailor my teaching methods to develop my students' full potential.
I started teaching in 2009 and most students put their trust in me when they first decided to learn an instrument. I also enjoy exploring the world of music with students with learning disabilities.
I am proud to say, my students, aged from 5 to 60, are enthusiastic in playing the instrument they have chosen and keen to improve their skills following my advice.
I adopt a flexible approach in teaching - I believe every student is unique and my job is to develop the strengths and improve the weaknesses. I put a lot of emphasis on a solid foundation in my teaching.
For young children, I tend to use a more interactive approach to explain complicated music theories, yet strict in the fundamentals such as posture and rhythm. For adults, I am always happy to discuss with them my lesson plan and choose the best exercises and songs that suit their music interests and needs.
For my students who would like to take exams, I am happy to tailor the lessons based on their progress. I believe in the quality of learning and understanding rather than the number of pieces that they learn. Many beginners and their parents have put their trusts in me and achieved distinction in their first ABRSM exam.
I am fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese, and a native speaker of Cantonese Chinese.
I am happy to travel and travel costs will be added on the top of the standard tuition fee.

Clases de canto en Amsterdam Jazz, Pop, Bossa NovaMi enfoque para las clases de canto se basa en desarrollar y mejorar la voz de manera técnica y expresiva, mientras disfrutamos del proceso de aprendizaje.
1. Conciencia Corporal:
Comenzamos trabajando la postura, la respiración y la relajación para preparar el cuerpo como instrumento vocal. Teniendo mayor concierncia de nuestro cuerpo, tendremos mayor conciencia del uso de nuestra voz y nuestro canto será mas natural y fluido.
2. Calentamiento Vocal:
Realizamos ejercicios específicos para activar la voz, incluyendo escalas, arpegios y técnicas de resonancia. Estos ejercicios ayudan a mejorar el rango vocal, la afinación y la proyección.
3. Trabajo de Repertorio:
Elije una canción que te guste (o la elegimos juntos) y la exploramos en profundidad. Desarrollamos la técnica vocal aplicándola directamente a la interpretación, trabajando en la expresión, la dicción y el estilo musical.
4. Desarrollo Personalizado:
Cada clase se adapta a tus necesidades y objetivos. El progreso se mide a través de canciones que reflejen tus intereses musicales, garantizando una experiencia única y motivadora.
Mi objetivo es crear un espacio seguro y creativo donde puedas desarrollar tu voz, ganar confianza y disfrutar del arte de cantar.

Vasileios
Electric, Acoustic, Classical guitar lessons in Jazz, Rock, Blues, Pop, classical, eastern traditional folk music. Composition, singing.Hello there! My name is Vasilis and I am a jazz/rock/eastern traditional and classical guitar player, singer and songwriter currently studying as a 3rd year student in the Jazz and Pop guitar department of HKU conservatory. I am coming from Greece where I graduated from my first bachelor on classical guitar and the last three years I live, study, work and play in Utrecht.
My teaching career started very early, 12 years ago when my classical guitar teacher let me teach my first student and since then I have worked in multiple music schools and in private lessons with students of every age. This year I also started giving my first band coaching group lessons.
In my lessons I try to create a learning path that is formed arround the interests and taste of each student. Since I am a singer and songwriter the lessons can also focus on the creating part of music if of course the student is interested in that. I work with empathy and sensitivity arround the needs of each student.
As for my playing career, I play with multiple bands on original songs of mine or covers in different venues and festivals in Europe. The genres differ between pop, jazz, rock, eastern traditional and blues so I can give a big variety of stylistic directions to each student.
Last but not least, I am also a singer and because of my good performance in school, I was awarded from the HKU Conservatory the oportunity to follow the vocal curriculum of the school as well. So I can help you with singing too!
