Hello! My name is Mikael! I'm a guitarist, composer and passionate educator with over 12 years of professional experience. Do you want to take your guitar playing to the next level — with lessons that are fun, inspiring, and genuinely effective? I’d love to help you make that happen.

Hello! My name is Mikael! 

I’m a guitarist, composer, and music teacher who loves helping people discover music. Whether you are completely new to an instrument or already have years of experience, my goal is to make learning music feel enjoyable, inspiring, and approachable.

I studied at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam and have built an international career as a guitarist and composer. My music has received awards and international recognition, and I bring that professional experience into my lessons in a clear and supportive way so that students can learn step by step.

Everyone learns differently, so I always adapt lessons to the student. Together we focus on building confidence, understanding music, and most importantly enjoying the process of learning and playing.

Beginners, children, and curious adults are all very welcome.

My guitar lessons are friendly, patient, and perfect for beginners, children, and adults who want to start learning the instrument.

We begin with learning chords, rhythms, melodies, and songs you enjoy. Step by step you will learn how the guitar works and build confidence while playing. As you progress we can also explore improvisation, songwriting, and understanding how music works.

I like to play together during lessons and help students develop their musical ear so that learning feels natural and engaging.

You don’t need to own a guitar yet. If you’d like to try a lesson first, I’m happy to lend you an instrument during the lesson, so you can simply come and explore the guitar.

The most important thing for me is that students feel comfortable, motivated, and excited to make music.
