Love the Music You Play

Private Piano Lessons, Designed for Adults

I'm Willem, I’m a professional pianist and composer with years of experience helping adults learn piano in a way that feels natural and enjoyable. My approach is relaxed, personalized, and built around your goals—whether that’s playing your favorite songs, improving technique, or simply making music a part of your life.

What to Expect

  • Lessons are taught from my studio in Saint-Henri, Montreal, giving you a comfortable and focused space to learn at your own pace. Each lesson is fully personalized to your musical tastes, so you’ll be learning the music you actually enjoy.

  • Even if the songs you love seem too difficult right now, I’ll guide you with music that fits your level while helping you reach your goals. You’ll gain skills step by step, so nothing feels overwhelming—but you’ll still feel challenged in the best way.

  • Your time is valuable, so I make scheduling easy. You’ll have access to my calendar and can book a lesson at a time that works for you—whether that’s weekdays, evenings, or weekends. Available time slots include 4–7 PM on weekdays and 9 AM–3 PM on weekends, so you can fit piano into your schedule with ease.

What Students Say

  • I 100% recommend taking lessons with Willem. I’ve always wanted to learn piano and was worried I wouldn’t be able to pick it up, and I’m so glad I found Willem. He’s a truly patient, understanding, kind person who genuinely wants to help others and share his knowledge of music. He pays great attention to the way one learns, and constantly adapts to your pace and style of learning.

  • We learn at my pace with no pressure at all. Our lessons are something I look forward to every week. I felt silly trying to learn an instrument as an adult but I feel like I've come very far.

  • I really appreciate the way Willem teaches piano and music theory. His lessons are not classical, he fits them to your needs and preferred genres. He is really passionate and open-minded. I enjoy our discussions about music.
