Hey there !
I'm Camille Devoulon
I come from the South of France, I grew up between the mountains and the sea with lots of sunshine!
I recently moved to Amsterdam and being a guitarist, a passionate teacher and open to a new challenge, I decide to create my own music school here.
I knew from an early age that I wanted to become a guitar teacher. The desire to pass on my knowledge, to use music as a way of communication, to see someone’s imagination grow and to experience the creativity of my students is what fascinates me. For me music is very much about enjoying and sharing.
What do I offer ? Guitar lessons in English and Dutch Music for Young Children in French.
My values
Playfulness
Kindness
Resourceful
I think learning something in a playful way is important. It is important that my students enjoy and feel comfortable with the learning process. Kindness and patience are the most important parts of my job. I use a variety of ways to reach musical goals. We are all unique individuals so it is important to use different pedagogical techniques or suggest different tips to different students.
Biography
A committed and curious musician, I began discovering the world of music in a small school in the South of France. Very quickly, polyphonic music took an important place in my life as well as my guitar, choir and musical groups. At the age of twelve I realised that becoming a guitar teacher was my biggest dream.
So after visiting the Conservatoire in Perpignan, I studied at different schools of music in France and Belgium, to perfect my guitar playing and to gain a pedagogy diploma (Bachelor and Master). Passionate about teaching I worked with a variety of students in guitar orchestras or as a choir conductor during my studies.
I use the Willems Music Education system. A program which bases its approach on the psychological relationship between music, the human being and the creative mind. I also used this approach in the educational system of the Montessori school in Angleur, Belgium.
I play in several professional ensembles Duo Amele-Camille or with Les Demoiselles Tisseuses company playing especially for young audiences.
I dream of music education which allows everyone to express their personality through music.
