Cello with a very friendly professional; all ages, all stages!

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
You're in good hands! As a professional cellist for 14 years now, including as a member of major European and Australian opera and philharmonic orchestras, I welcome all students, from those picking up the instrument for the first time to those preparing for professional auditions.

My primary aim in teaching is to create an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect in which students can draw motivation to set and accomplish their goals, with my full commitment towards helping them achieve those. Getting the foundations of good playing and good musicianship right is of course a very close and no less important second!

During their journey, students can count on my patience, understanding and sympathy to help them through all challenges. I tailor my teaching style to fit all students based on their individual needs and wishes, or those of their parents if they're too young to decide for themselves.

I'm determined to break the stereotype of teachers being failed performers and teach not only by demonstration, but by playing with students as an accompanist or duet partner, even with absolute beginners.

If you're not sure exactly what you want out of lessons, or aren't sure where to begin, let's discuss and determine that together!

Lessons take place at my place in Carré.

Extra information

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Lessons for students younger than 12 must take place in the full presence of a parent or guardian.

English is my native language but I can also teach in Dutch and German. As a new resident of Liège, I'm working on French!

Students must have their own cello and accessories, including at the very least a bow, rosin, appropriate microfibre cloth for cleaning and a floor protector for the spike. Ideally, students will also have an electronic tablet or some other means to receive digital copies of music for marking and, if necessary, printing.

I try to arrange lessons so as not to conflict with my performance activities, but may have to rearrange lessons (well in advance) if necessary.

For very young students or otherwise by request, I also offer lessons of 15-20 minutes in duration, that however at the same price as for 30 minutes.

For everyone's health and safety, students or their parents are kindly asked to please cancel lessons or arrange to have them online in cases where they are ill but still want to attend, and only attend lessons in person once again when they are symptom-free. Thank you in advance for your understanding!

About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hello! I am an Australian professional cellist now living in Liège.

I'm delighted to bring my skills and experience to Belgium and draw on those from my fellow artists and citizens here.

I love teaching people of all ages and levels, helping them learn and develop as best I can, and firmly believe in positive teaching methods.

I recently graduated with distinction from the Master of Music degree program at the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp in the class of Professor Olsi Leka, and am now seeking to establish myself here as a teacher and performer.

I already perform occasionally as a cellist with the Belgian National Orchestra and performed frequently in Australia with leading orchestras such as the Opera Australia Orchestra resident in the famous Sydney Opera House, the Australian Brandenburg Orchestra and the Canberra Symphony Orchestra of the national capital.

I've also performed at hundreds of important occasions of all kinds, personal and institutional, and taught at prestigious as well as small schools; all experiences which have been meaningful, each in their own way.

I am a product of different teaching methods including Suzuki and can teach in whatever way the student likes or finds most enjoyable and beneficial. There is no single right way to learn, but I certainly take utmost care to avoid the wrong ways!

Lessons normally take place at my house in the old city center but traveling may be possible by negotiation.

I am more than happy to teach in English, Dutch or German, and soon enough in French of course too.

I look forward very much to fielding your inquiries and embarking together on a wonderfully enriching journey!

All levels and all purposes are welcome! When it comes to learning a language, there’s no replacement for learning from a native speaker. I work with students so that they get the best value for their time and effort. Above all, language learning should be enriching and enjoyable! Please free to ask any questions.

I give lessons of 1 hour, at home if necessary, for students of all levels and styles of play. My teaching covers both classical music and modern flute (jazz, etc.); the work done can focus on music of the student's choice, or I can simply redirect it to methods and scores if he wishes to work on them together. The idea is to progress, but above all to have fun, the two go hand in hand. I give lessons in Liège.

I regularly participate in international masterclasses. As a violin teacher, I offer my students personalized support, adapted to their level and their goals. Together, we work on technique, musicality and interpretation to develop a balanced and expressive playing. Whether you are a beginner or advanced, I emphasize the pleasure of learning and individual progression, while approaching a varied and stimulating repertoire.

All the repertoires can be work: from the classical to the contemporary, passing the musics of films or the variety. I wish above all to discover and transmit my passion that is the violin. It is a beautiful instrument that requires rigor but that can be approached in joy and good mood.

Apolline
Learn the transverse flute in Liège - Private lessons for all ages and all levels
My name is Apolline, I am a 26-year-old flautist and I am studying in the first year of a didactic master at the Royal Conservatory of Liège. I love to teach, and I used to be a flute teacher, I even started teaching when I was 17! I am passionate about transmitting my passion, and whatever your level, beginner or advanced, I will always try to bring you the maximum so that you can evolve with your instrument. I can also teach you the basics you need in music theory to play whatever you want! I am passionate about the body and the breath: I was able to participate and be trained in music therapy in France at the "Léthée Musicale" institute in Lyon, and I also have some knowledge of the "TIMANI" method of body awareness that I was able to discover in Oslo, Norway. I see the flute as a well-being, a connection with one's own body and one's listening. Ideal for young children, whether for concentration or synchronization, but also for adults, who are rarely used to listening to themselves...

Emmy-Lee

Giorgia
Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.
