Thore
Flute lessons (E/NL/GER) for beginners to advanced flutistsHi, I am Thore. I’m a German Bachelors degree flute student at the Prins Claus Conservatorium in Groningen.
During my studies here I could and still can gather a lot of knowledge about methodology and pedagogy and could already make a few teaching experiences.
For me teaching means learning from each other. Thus the student of course gets insight to my knowledge about music and instrumental technique but I will also learn a lot from the student about the individual factors of flute playing and music making in general.
In my lessons I focus a lot on breathing and posture because for me these two are the most influential factors to healthy and beautiful playing.
I am also open to incorporating the students musical interests e.g. Disney- and Pop-songs.
Lessons can be conducted in Dutch, English and German.

Cassie
Jazz Saxophone & Classical/Jazz Composition LessonsHi, I’m Cassie—a British jazz saxophonist, award-winning composer, and Trinity Laban Conservatoire graduate, now based in Berlin. I’m currently looking for a couple of private saxophone and/or composition students who are keen to develop their skills in a supportive and engaging environment.
Saxophone Lessons:
With a strong background in Jazz and improvised music, I offer saxophone lessons tailored to each student’s needs—whether you’re preparing for ABRSM or Royal College exams (or other equivalent examination boards), exploring jazz improvisation, or just playing for fun. As a performer, I’ve played at major festivals and venues across the UK, USA & Europe such as Glastonbury Festival (UK, SXSW (USA) and Paris Jazz Festival (FR). I am still active as a touring band-leader/artist and I bring that real-world experience into my teaching.
Composition Lessons:
As a classical composer, my work spans orchestral, chamber, and jazz ensemble writing, with commissions from leading arts organisations and orchestras - recent commissions include the London Symphony Orchestra and BBC Philharmonic. My lessons focus on notation, orchestration, and arranging—whether you’re composing for small ensembles or larger-scale works. I hold a BMus Hons degree in composition from Trinity Laban Conservatoire (London) where I studied with American composer Stephen Montague and British composer Andrew Poppy.
Composition lessons I am able to teach both in-person and online via Zoom.
If you're interested or have any questions, feel free to get in touch!
Looking forward to making music with you! 🎷🎼
Laura
Flute and Music Theory tuition for students of all levelsI have played the flute for more than 20 years, and have been teaching since 2011. I offer flute lessons to children aged 8 and up, and adults at all levels from beginners to post Grade 8.
I also teach recorder to younger beginners- I find this is a good stepping stone for younger children as it's more comfortable for smaller beginners to hold, and easier to make a sound on.
Learn to pass exams or just for fun- many of my students achieve highly in ABRSM and Trinity grades, but some prefer not to take exams and this is fine too.
Whatever your level, one to one tuition means that I can tailor my teaching to your needs as a flute player, and my teaching takes into account the reasons you learn an instrument, encompassing a wide variety of repertoire.
I also teach music theory- lots of students come to me to help prepare for Grade 5 theory, and I also teach higher theory grades.
Jerca
Experienced flute lessons – professional, individual, with passion and for all ages and levels!With my bachelor's and master's degrees as well as my bachelor's degree in musical education from the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz and years of experience playing the flute, I am well prepared to pass on my passion for music to anyone who wants to learn to play the flute. Over the last ten years, I have taught students of all ages - from children to teenagers and adults - to play the flute, recorder, alto flute and piccolo. I have developed a flexible and individually adapted teaching concept that responds to the needs of each individual - be it for fun, to prepare for competitions or to prepare specifically for entrance exams. I look forward to discovering the joy of music together with you!
