She always keeps in mind that it is important for the students to learn having fun with music: learning to play the instrument and to have a good technique with it, learning to listen to the music and understanding it, playing with the rhythm, the harmony or improvising, always with the aim of improving day after day.As a very hard-working and active person,  she is encouraged to show how music works and how it is essential in life, through listening, practising with the instruments and above all, having fun with each lesson!Helena is starting Dutch, she speaks fluently English and French and her mother tongue is Spanish.

Beginner and advanced students are welcome for these lessons, with a piano or chromatic accordion, in Standard or Free Bass. Depending on their interests and goals, students will be focused on classical, contemporary, dance and/or pop music. Through listening, doing different rhythms, improvising, understanding harmony and more, they will learn how this instrument works and how to play different musical pieces!The student will learn music through different activities, such as listening to music, doing rhythms with hands and feet, singing, and of course playing instruments. All of these are important activities to develop the skills of the student such as coordination, attention or discipline, along with the most important thing: enjoying music as an essential part of life!
